Management

The A Team...

Our project management is a group of businessmen experienced in transit and project management in a 50/50 co-venture with five transit design/engineering companies that make up the organization SmartSkyways, LLC. This team is responsible for collaboration, marketing and the funding of the new transit technology described in this web site. This group will be responsible for project sections progressing and producing the consortium phase. This consortium phase includes building a $15 million sales model ( see www.airparkvillage.com/ss) and constructing a $80 million operating model.

Design Team

The Design Team consists of Los Angeles based engineers that built Disney's existing transit technology. Today they operate world wide consultancy businesses for high tech rides in the most demanding configurations possible. Their common philosophy is that all components must be listed in trade catalogs and be available for competitive bidding. Their work has consistently resulted in the highest reliability and least down time of any transit technology anywhere.

Bob Gurr

Design Consultant Bob Gurr’s Philosophy of life comes from a quote by Malcolm Forbes. “While alive, live.” And Bob Does.

His serendipitous career began with an eight-month stint in 1952 at Ford Motor Company in Detroit after graduation from Art Center School. After realizing in two weeks that it would be a “dead end job,” Bob was later asked to join George Walker industrial Design, but within the first year decided to move back to Southern California. In 1953, he bought a rubber stamp and an invoice pad, and inaugurated R.H. Gurr industrial Design – a company of one, whose first big job was to consult with the Walt Disney Studios on the design of mini cars for a project called Autopia.

Walt Disney was so impressed with Bob’s work that he hired him as a permanent employee in his recently formed company, WED Enterprises – whose sole mission was to design and build Disneyland.

During his three-decade employment with WED, Bob worked on over 100 designs for attractions that include the Disneyland and Walt Disney World Monorails, Matterhorn Bobsleds. The memorable Flying Saucers, and the original Abraham Lincoln “Audio-Animatronics” figure for the 1964-1965 New York World’s Fair, along with the Ford Motor Company’s Magic Skyway Ride.

In 1981, Bob took an early retirement from WED to start his own firm, GurrDesign, Inc. In 1984, he teamed up with two former imagineers to form Sequoia Creative, Inc. The firm specialized in “leisure time spectaculars” and fantastical beasts, such as Universal Studios Tour’s King Kong and Conan’s serpent. Two of Bob’s all-time favorite projects were the mysterious UFO that flew over the closing ceremonies of the 1984 Los Angeles Summer Olympics and the animated “spiders” for Michael Jackson’s “Victory” tour.

While consulting on new attraction ideas for WDI’s R & D department, Steven Spielberg asked Bob to help design the T-Rex animated figure for the all-time hit film “Jurassic Park.” After designing the mechanical sinking ship for the Treasure Island Pirate Battle Show in Las Vegas, Bob continued with more “wild” Las Vegas showbiz spectaculars such as mechanical sets for the MGM EFX show, and the upcoming Rio Masquerade Floats. Currently, Bob is working with Walt Disney Attractions on giant animated EFX for the Tokyo DisneySea Night Time Spectacular, and is also engineering the mechanical action for the new giant “Godzilla” animates creature for a 1998 Tri-State film for Patrick Tatopoulos Designs, Inc.
