Employment: Dr. Eric W. Davis — Staff Aerospace and Astrophysics Researcher (1996-2002)

Described by Davis himself as "nearly six years", and elsewhere styled Director of Aerospace Physics and Astrophysics. This is the period of the 16 October 2002 meeting with VAdm Thomas Wilson. By the October 2003 Porto paper with Jacques Vallee he is described as a "consulting member" rather than staff — a transition from employee to consultant, not a contradiction.
