Recently, a HeliValue$ colleague, mentor and friend, Ralph Rosenbrock, was presented with the Charles Taylor Master Mechanic Award. It is the most prestigious award presented by the Federal Aviation Administration to an aviation maintenance technician.
The Charles Taylor Master Mechanic Award is named in honor of Charles Taylor, the first aviation mechanic in powered flight. The Charles Taylor Master Mechanic Award recognizes the lifetime accomplishments of senior mechanics.
Taylor served as the Wright brothers’ mechanic and is credited with designing and building the engine for their first successful aircraft.
Rosenbrock has had a distinguished 50-year career in aviation. While working with HeliValue$ over the past three decades as its senior technical advisor, Rosenbrock has held many other important positions in the helicopter industry.
“We are truly honored to have such remarkable contributor to HeliValue$, Inc. and The Official Helicopter Blue Book,” said a HeliValue$ representative.
