Additional functions:
Affiliation before retirement (ZHAW): Teaching and research in the field of interaction of meteorology with infrastructures. This reached from classical 'aviation meteorology', to special consulting (e.g. Solar Impulse), and could also include buildings and traffic systems.

Affiliation after retirement (about 20% CEO/COO of METAIR AG)
Collaborator in different national and international
research projects, where our airborne measurements
were/are involved.
