Meet the Team

Your main contacts at Aerobytes are:

Eddie Forrester, Managing Director

Before starting Aerobytes Eddie worked in telecommunications and then as a freelance programmer. Having been contracted to work for a competitor he knew he could do better and Aerobytes was formed. Eddie’s philosophy for the company is to remain lean and flexible. With first-hand experience of large company bureaucracy, he knows just how much of an advantage Aerobytes has over its larger competitors in terms of support and response to their needs.

Alan Hackford 

Alan Hackford, Technical Support

Alan joined the Royal Air Force in 1975, at the tender age of 16 (and a half) as a Flight Systems Technician where he spent 14 years, working on everything from overhauling gyroscopes in a clean room up to front-line squadron operations on fast jets. Following  on he joined British Midland Airways, running their Avionic Workshop.  Gained experience on bench repair and overhaul of tape-based FDR and CVR, including the infamous scratch-foil recorders (and still have the scars to prove it!).While there he moved from the workshop into Technical Services, to set up an FDR section.  This lead to CAA approval as a BCAR B4 Test House, certified to issue Approved Test Certificates on Flight Data Recorder systems on B737, Embraer 135 & 145, Fokker 70 & Fokker 100, Airbus A320, 321, and A330. In addition he provided engineering support during the setting up of British Midland’s OFDM department, including writing of Logical Frame Layouts for A320, including reprogramming of the A320 Data Management Unit.

In September 2003 Alan joined Thomas Cook Airlines in Manchester where once again he was involved in the company's FDM process, including the switch over to Aerobytes.

Alan is married with 2 adult children
