Steve Ridolfi, president, Bombardier Business Aircraft

Steven Ridolfi joined de Havilland as a structural dynamics engineer in 1982, 10 years before Bombardier Aerospace bought the company from the Canadian government. Ridolfi’s career since then includes positions in airline analysis, marketing, research and development, product planning, aircraft programs, customer support and as president of commercial aircraft. Ridolfi holds a bachelor of science degree in engineering physics from Queen’s University and has completed the program for management development at Harvard University. He was promoted to president of Bombardier Business Aircraft in April 2008, just a few months before the financial meltdown put a serious hurt into business aviation.
