Corporate Membership
Be a part of the professional flight test industry.
SFTE members come from companies just like yours, who are involved in all aspects of flight testing air and space vehicles. As a professional organization, we rely on both the contributions and commitment of our Corporate Members to provide value to our members, and thus your employees.
SFTE offers a unique forum for the promotion and development of effective, safe, and efficient aerospace testing. This can have immense benefit for your company’s flight test engineers, test pilots, and test programs as they learn best practices and critical lessons from a diverse audience of global experts.
Areas of industry discussion include:
- new risk mitigation methodologies
- lesson learned
- test effectiveness
- program leadership
- project productivity
- updated regulatory standards
- training and competency
Membership and participation demonstrate your commitment to the flight test industry and help reinforce your company brand. Positioning your company, brand and message alongside with SFTE at our various functions will increase awareness and visibility of your company in the aerospace community and facilitate recruitment.
We were created for your workforce.
SFTE was created for companies with employees just like yours – engineers and other professionals who work with all aspects of flight testing from around the world! SFTE continues to grow and expand our capabilities and services. Our recently updated SFTE website is chock full of valuable information. We have a strong base of membership from around the globe. We hope that as a company engaged in or supporting the discipline of flight testing, you will consider the benefits of a corporate membership with SFTE.
