Cars and mobility have inspired Florian from an early age. It was therefore not surprising that he chose to specialize in automotive engineering during his mechanical engineering studies. In the German Armed Forces, he not only worked as an officer, but also spent 8.5 years as a systems engineer for EUROFIGHTERs. The combination of automobiles and aviation are ideal for him - and that means he is in good hands at EDAG. In his private life, Florian successfully plays lacrosse and ice hockey for many years, and enjoys spending time with his family.
