The 2002 Birds of Prey (BOP) team is led by Denman James, a Pratt engineers. This is Denman's first year leading team 181. He's beginning to realize, as his predesessors did, that this is a HUGE task. He's not completely alone...Twenty members fill out this year's volunteer roster which includes participants from Pratt & Whitney, Robert E. Morris, CPEP, and Fox61. The 2001 BOP team was divided into sub-teams, each responsible for an integral part of last year's competition.
Team 181, Birds of Prey, suffered the tragedy of loosing one of our volunteer engineers from Pratt & Whitney. Michael McCoy was an invaluable part of the team for the last two years. He headed up the drive team for two years in a row (1999-2000), whose ideas were modified and implemented in subsequent robot designs. His dedication and enthusiasm was an inspiration to us all. McCoy, you will forever be missed! See The Real McCoy in action! |
