[edit] Personal description
I am a retired engineer, having spent 38 years in aircraft Manufacture, design, & approval. I also worked for the government in nuclear control & regulation (16 years}. I was born in London England, but have lived in Canada for much of my life. My language is, unfortunately, only English and very limited French.
[edit] Interests
I have many interests, and consider myself well up in the Aviation Field (Having worked at Hawker Aircraft, Canadair, Saunder-Roe, & Canadian DoT-Airworthiness); Radioactive material; Military history & heraldry; Musical theatre & cinema; and Computing (having been associated with computer use & programming since 1960).
During the course of my 81 years I have seen over 250 Musiical shows & Films, together with at least 1000 other movies & theatrical performances. My hobby is the collection of books on uniforms, badges, flags, insignia & Military History.

[edit] Commitment
In these and in other areas where I have knowledge, I will submit edits, where there is either an empty link or a important lack of entry.
I will not, however, make edits on points of style or questionable grammar, as I believe that the English language has few 'hard and fast' rules.
I will not change US/UK spelling. As my own spelling is far from good and since living in Canada I have used both,
