My condolences to the family. What a great person and co- worker. My best memory is working with him on the original 737 Dual Flight Management program in the early 90s. The company ordered a private Jet for Chris to fly him overnight to Seattle to deliver the final software to Boing just hours before the final 737 flight test. The flight test was a complete success and the software certified. I also worked with his Dad and have fond memories of him.
