The next issue of Diesel & Gas Turbine Worldwide magazine includes a question-and-answer feature with George Whittier, who was named CEO of Fairbanks Morse in January. Whittier ran the Fairbanks Morse division from 2009 to 2012 and returned to the company after leadership positions at Precision Castparts Corp., Regal Beloit and the Morey Corp.
