Specialties:
Aidan is a fighter pilot, specializing originally in air-superiority fighters like the F-15, but later becoming one of the primary test pilots for the F-302 project, after a brief stint with the F-22 development team confirmed his aptitude for test-flying new aircraft.

Aidan is extremely skilled as a pilot, with extremely good senses for complicated maneuvers, and is most at home in the cockpit, no matter what the craft. More recently he has been moved to working on much larger 'aircraft' - primarily in the development of the new refits to the B/C-304 class and specifically the brand new CGN-307X Artemis, which he was placed in command of for her first offworld tests.

Beyond his skill as a pilot, Aidan is an excellent commander, despite being slightly uncomfortable with the post, and has a much better understanding of the complicated systems of new 'alien' technology than most people give him credit for. While not an engineer by trade, he is one by education, and can generally make his craft work for him, even if there is no formal engineer there to help him with it.

Oddly enough, he speaks German and a fair amount of French, due to his time in Europe.
