Presidents Message - February 2012
Fellow Flight Testers and Members of the Society of Flight Test Engineers:
Happy New Year!
A Happy New Year to Flight Testers around the world! 2011 saw many Flight Test Milestones for a number of programs. Some of you are ramping up for new programs and some of you are wrapping up programs, while others of you are still in-between. Participation in SFTE events helps us in all the above stages of life in Flight Test. The presentations at the SFTE Symposium in Seattle are a fine example of how continuing to broaden our experience and knowledge base are great ways to improve our effectiveness for ourselves and our employers.
Happy New Web Site!
SFTE has a revamped and updated web site, rolled out at this year’s Symposium in Seattle! One new feature is the SFTE Forums are now in the public section for all visitors. Previously, the Forums were in the Members Only Section. The Technical Council and the Board of Directors felt that more exposure would improve communication and the benefit of the Forums. Check out the new SFTE web site at www.sfte.org!
