Together, Charlie Pond and Dave Lucier have over sixty years of experience working on GE gas turbines. During their GE days, they wore many hats: senior field engineers, area engineers, managers of field services and lead technical advisors. They trained over 1000 field engineers at the Field Engineering Development Center. Dave managed the Field Engineering Program (FEP), as well as being a lead technical trainer in Fuel Regulator and Speedtronic™ control systems for six years. Charlie was a lead training specialist on gas turbine maintenance and installations at the Center. Chances are, field engineers who have provided services for you in the past are graduates of the FEP during our tenure. Furthermore, since leaving GE, Dave and Charlie have taught over 160 on-site training schools and multi-client seminars in addition to our main responsibilities as gas turbine field engineers.

In addition to Dave and Charlie's training experience, PAL's staff and associates are experienced field engineers and technicians that are accomplished technical trainers. Trouble-shooting exercises focus on specific problems that have occurred on your equipment or other power plants of similar design.

PAL offers seminars and on-site unit-specific gas turbine technical training. Training can be taught in both English and Spanish or with simultaneous interpretation. For on-site schools call the PAL office to discuss your specific training needs.
