David Gunson was born in Sheffield.
He originally trained to be a metallurgist before changing direction
slightly to join the RAF.
David flew for twelve years in the
Royal Air Force doing Search and Rescue and anti-submarine work. He was
an air traffic controller at Birmingham Airport for 22 years, until he
retired in 1992.
David is a Yorkshire man whose
interests include cricket and rugby. He lives in a leafy suburb of
Solihull with his wife Doreen and children.
David's speech, entitled "What goes
up doesn't necessarily come down" draws on his wide experience of near
misses and narrowly averted disasters, with his tongue firmly in his
cheek!
"The whole evening was an
outstanding success and David Gunson played a significant part in that
success - he was outstanding both as an after dinner speaker and as a
table guest."
