Derek Brickell

I have lived in Lowdham since April 2021, although for most of my life I have lived in Nottingham or the surrounding area, only moving away for work reasons. I am married with two children, now both adults.  I have worked almost my entire career in the air transport industry and been a director of some major transport companies including East Midlands Airport.  Towards the end of my career, I moved into teaching degree level students on air transport or pilot studies degrees.  I am educated to master’s degree level.   I am now retired,although I occasionally guest lecture or give talks to schools, universities or societies onaviation. I also volunteer at a local school and I am a member of Lowdham Bowls Club and Lowdham History Society. Outside of this, I am a Nottingham Forest season ticket holderand I have a keen interest in travel, politics and humanism.
