Not sure what to say?

I worked with Walt at Fairchild Aircraft and at Sino-Swearingen Aircraft. His name is embedded in the foundations of the Merlin/Metro and SJ30-2 aircraft designs. Walt was an early innovator in the use of finite element modeling for aircraft loads and stress analysis. He was a quiet man but willing and eager to pass on his knowledge to a young engineer wanting to learn.

You two were the best neighbors. We remember when Walter built the sail boat in the back yard. May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. Linda and Steven Hanan
