Biography
Dr Cheung graduated with a BSc (Hons) degree in Mechanical Engineering and undertook postgraduate research in Aeronautical Engineering, both from Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London (1981-1984). He joined British Aerospace Civil Aircraft Division, Hatfield, in January 1985, working in the Aeroelastics Section as an Assistant Engineer. He was initially assigned a Ministry of Defence contract to carry out research on the development of computational methods for calculating unsteady aerodynamics on aircraft lifting surfaces. He was responsible for the development of two major computer programmes that are currently being used for the design of BAe aircraft. In 1990 Dr Cheung was promoted to the position of Principal Engineer.
