"His ability to analyze a highly complex set of problems and provide clear, realistic solutions is a rare skill that is difficult to find. Don brings the highest level of professionalism and focus to his assigned responsibilities, and always produces quality results. There were many instances at Eclipse Aviation when I was thankful to have Don on my side of the table, and not sitting across from me."

"Don came in and was immediately willing to make difficult decisions to improve effectiveness and efficiency. Don took on the challenges of a variety of suppliers and led his group to ensure quality across all aspects of their complex tasks. He understands the regulatory environment and the unique relationship necessary for success therein. Simply put, Don is the most effective executive with whom I have had the pleasure to work. I look forward to the opportunity to do so again."

"Having the opportunity to work with Don on several critical projects, I was able to gain a direct appreciation for the high level of competency that Don has to offer." said Bill Bonder, former Vice President of Supply Chain Management at Eclipse Aviation. "Don is capable of combining extensive technical knowledge with a no-nonsense approach while pulling together various stakeholders to achieve a common objective. Don was most impressive on a number of international projects that we worked on together.
