Denis Razuan Dancanet,
an American, Romanian born private pilot, mathematician, Ph.D. in computer science from Carnegie Mellon University on Intensional Semantics in the context of programming languages and parallel computing [2]. He is CEO of Jetoptera [3], a company developing propulsion systems for unmanned and manned aircraft, located in Edmonds, Washington, before affiliated with Morgan Stanley & Co. in the UK [4]. According to his 1999 homepage, chess is one of his latest obsessions [5].
