Michal Michalec

We designed a suspension and steering mechanism for a Pneumobile racing car powered by pressurized air. There was a bit of everything - mechanical engineering, project management, teamwork and final design presentation. Zdeněk had an exceptional work ethic and was willing to learn and took on additional responsibilities when necessary. If I had to choose somebody to work with, Zdeněk would be the first choice!
