CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (November 09, 2009) - Aerospace and defense industry veteran Bruno Rambaud has joined Rockwell Collins as vice president and managing director for Europe, Middle East and Africa. Rambaud, who has more than 20 years of industry experience, is responsible for developing the company's business and overseeing all Rockwell Collins' operations in the region. 

"Bruno's proven leadership and strong connections with commercial and government organizations throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa, including the European Union and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), will help fuel Rockwell Collins' growth and foster valued customer relationships," said Walter "Woody" Hogle, senior vice president of International Business for Rockwell Collins.
