Biographical Information
"James Barrett trained as an engineering apprentice with Rolls-Royce, gaining graduate and post graduate qualifications at Bristol University and Imperial College of London University as well as Goettingen and Berlin Universities in Germany. James has been in aviation all his life for 24 years at Rolls-Royce and 23 years as the Deputy Chairman and head of the UK GE Aircraft Engine business. Pioneering work was done at both, including putting Concorde into service at RR and launching the world's still largest jet engine at GE. James has been at the forefront of global aviation leadership, but this has always been accompanied by a passionate support of mission outreach in some of the remotest and most deprived regions of the world. James, and his treasured wife Marion of 45 years, live in central London. They have 4 grandchildren. He is currently Chairman of the board." [1]
