March 2010
Thanks so much to the group from Bombardier for sponsoring our dinner meeting for the March event. We had several employees from their service center in Hartford to include General Manager Jim Scavotto. We also had representatives who came out that were from the Technical Support group and also the manager of that group who came down from Montreal, Mr Lanny Schindelmeiser-Director Customer Response Team. As many of you know our Board member Remy Singh is assigned to this group.
It ended up being very interesting presentation of the new computerized maintenance program. I am amazed by the effort put forth from many of the OEM’s to not only refine these systems but to make them easier to use for all involved. I also noticed they are not relying so much on the ATA codes that many of us know and grew up with in our business but this group has also alphabetized and used color codes to help the pilots better use the system, (only kidding pilot friends!)
We look forward to future events and have been told that Bombardier wants to be involved and will continue to support us at WAMA. We would like to give a special thanks to Mr. Michael Blackman for his interesting presentation and showing us many of the details of the system that they have designed.
Keep in mind to thank these people when you see them. This helps to remind them that they are important to WAMA but also gives them a good reason as to why they sponsor these events. We have one more regular dinner meeting and then we start our picnic season. We plan to have two in White Plains and one in Oxford. Please try to join us and support our sponsors.
Respectfully
Bob Brega
