Chris Water kent de business van Vliegtuigonderhoud en de logistiek door en door. Door zijn lange loopbaan kent hij zowel de behoeften van de klant als de logistieke processen die dit waar moeten maken. Chris is opgegroeid in de techniek, maar is overduidelijk een sociaal mens. Hij maakt met iedereen en overal gemakkelijk contact en weet verbindingen te leggen die voor iedereen positief uitpakken. Chris ziet overal kansen en is op zijn sterkst als hij zich vast kan bijten in een concreet project. Hij rust dan niet voordat er een goed resultaat ligt.
