Director

philosophy for the company is to remain lean and
flexible.

just how much of an advantage Aerobytes has over
its larger competitors in terms of support and response

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

Richard McGonegle, QARs and
QAR kits
Richard started his
career as a student apprentice with Smiths Industries
setting up a production line to produce their first car
clock for many years. His
greatest wish however, was to move over into
sales, which
Smiths Industries would not allow. In 1986, he joined
Welwyn Components Ltd and successfully sold electronic
components for 12 years before joining one of their
competitors. After the
UK
electronic manufacturing downturn of 2004, Richard
joined Avionics Mobile Services Ltd as a Sales Manager
for their component operation. As the company gained
EASA Part 21G approval, he used his production
experience to sell and co-ordinate their new service.
After their closure, he joined Aerobytes and now
supports their QAR hardware business.
