My Take
Faury earns my genuine respect because he is an engineer who never lost the shop floor under his feet. Trained as a military flight engineer, he climbed all the way to CEO of Airbus, an aerospace giant on which the world's skies literally depend. I admire technical leaders who actually understand the machine they sell rather than reading it off a spreadsheet. An aircraft is millions of parts and an ocean of trust bundled together, and shouldering that responsibility is no small thing. The 2010 Knight of the National Order of Merit fits. Every time I look up at a plane, I think of hands like his.
