He has served as a legal and operational advisor to several international expeditions, including six expeditions to the R.M.S. Titanic, two expeditions to Mt. Everest, an expedition to explore the wreck of the German battleship Bismarck and the Atlantic Sands expedition. He has participated in or led numerous expeditions to remote parts of the world, including a climbing expedition in Africa in 1989 (before Western-guided climbs were common), three expeditions to explore the wreck of the Titanic using manned submersibles (in 2000, 2003 and 2005), an expedition that discovered the world’s deepest wooden shipwreck in the heart of the Bermuda Triangle, and an expedition that discovered two well-preserved F4U-1 Corsair fighter planes in fresh water. He organized and led the last expedition to explore the Titanic using deep submersibles and the Apollo F-1 Engine Search & Recovery Project, which found and recovered the Apollo F-1 rocket engines that launched men to the moon.
David is a Fellow of The Explorers Club and a member of the Sea Space Symposium. He was among the youngest members inducted into both organizations, and he has served on the Board of Directors of each. As an attorney, David has served as General Counsel to a number of organizations affiliated with exploration, including the X-PRIZE Foundation, The Explorers Club, the Academy of Underwater Arts & Sciences, the Anglo-Dutch Maritime Archaeology Team and the Professional Shipwreck Explorers Association.
