Eddy joins Sikorsky after a 14-year career at Textron’s Bell Helicopter company where he most recently served as Senior Vice President, Customer Support and Services, and as Chief Services Officer.  While at Bell, he also held the positions of Executive Director, Commercial Helicopter Programs, Director of the Completion Center and Training Academy, and Manager of Product Support Engineering.  In his new position, he reports to Carey Bond, President of Sikorsky Global Helicopters and Chief Marketing Officer for Sikorsky Aircraft.
