He has compiled and evaluated an extensive catalogue of radar cases which forms the core of RADCAT, an exhaustive on-line resource presently under construction by Jan Aldrich and associates at Project 1947, and has worked with Dr. David Clarke on analyses of a number of UK military radar reports dating back to 1946.

Former Chief - Space Human Factors Research Office, NASA, Ames Research Center]. Other interests include music, landscape and theoretical physics, with particular focus on nonlocal correlations and the quantisation condition for a scale-free fractal spacetime in which all position states are doubly connected. (Recent work includes the online papers A Speculative Ontological Interpretation of Nonlocal Context-dependency in Electron Spin and Foundations of an Alternative View of Mechanics.) He worked as a professional landscape painter in the Scottish highlands for 12 years. He is presently focusing on writing and research and lives in Perthshire, Scotland. |
