Brian was also responsible for aerodynamic testing, determining the required starter generator airflow on Pilatus PC-12 re-engine project, the cause of increased drag on Boeing 707 re-engine project due to engine re-location, drag on a Disney dragon glider, the increased drag on Gulfstream II NASA HIWC project due to the addition of under-wing pylons and fuselage radomes, and pipe flow characteristics required on Gulfstream II NASA HIWC purge system. In addition to their flight testing and aerodynamic responsibilities, Brian also designed doublers, triplers, and repairs for aircraft modification, bomb rack for Sabreliner test bed, battery tray for Pilatus PC-12, upper radome, interior and window blank for Gulfstream II.
