Witness to an aircraft accident caused by stall, he realized the pilot could not tell when the angle of airflow over the wing had become excessive. The stall-warning device Greene then invented brought him his first of more than 100 patents to date, 60 of which cover aviation technology. At the time Greene invented the stall-warning device, more than half of all aviation deaths were caused by the stall/spin. A Saturday Evening Post article (Oct. 25, 1947) said of Greene's innovation, 'It may be the greatest life saver since invention of the parachute.'

Midgley Award Recipients DAVID EDDY , 2001 MIDGLEY AWARD RECIPIENT David Eddy of Delphi Research Laboratories will be receiving the 2001 Thomas Midgley Award for his outstanding research contributions that led to the development and implementation of automotive exhaust oxygen sensors. 1) an overall principle of operation, 2) device modeling and design, 3) amaterials technology system, 4) a packaging and interconnection system,and 5) a manufacturing system for high volume production. Because ofthe multifaceted nature of sensor development, these aspects must be addressed glo- bally in a common design at the start of development rather than summing the individual parts at the end. The automotive exhaust oxygen sensor development serves as an example of this pro- cess. Oxygen sensors remain the largest volume chemical sensor on automobiles, at least one on each vehicle with a three-way catalytic converter. The events and milestones of the early oxygen sensor development led to a very successful commercial automotive product DR. EDWARD KRESEGE
