"Roy was invaluable in our efforts to start our FAA Part 145 Repair Station, and help us to achieve our FAA Air Agency Certificate in a very timely manner. Roy is an outstanding aviation professional who effectively blends his great abilities as a trainer & communicator, with his technical knowledge as an FAA Designated Airworthiness Representative (DAR) and skills as a project manager. Roy provided tremendous leadership and knowledge transfer to our team as we worked to develop and implement the Quality Management System for our Repair Station. From the very beginning of the project Roy worked extremely well with the local FAA Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) and started our company down the right path to a very good working relationship with the FAA. I would highly recommend Roy to any company needing assistance with process improvements and/or aviation related projects and initiatives."
