(Internal Note: this webinar didn’t happen)
In celebration of Women’s History Month, join AIAA in collaboration with NSBE Aerospace Special Interest Group and the Royal Aeronautical Society for this special webinar featuring Christine Darden. While Darden has many accomplishments, the majority of her 40-year NASA career focused on sonic boom minimization. Darden’s work laid the foundation for the Low Boom Flight Demonstrator Aircraft which NASA has contracted Lockheed Martin Skunk Works to design, build, and test. Listen as she discusses her life’s work and how she advocates for equity for women in engineering.

This webinar is a part of the annual Mary Jackson Lecture Series hosted by the Royal Aeronautical Society and the AIAA Diversity Working Group.

Once There was an Arrow — “Black Friday” of the Canadian Aviation Industry

Mark your calendar! Join the AIAA New England Section for the expert webinar by Colonel Walter Gordon – Chairman of the AIAA Niagara Frontier Section and deputy chair of the AIAA History Committee!

Avro Canada completed and flew five prototypes of the CF-105 Arrow supersonic interceptor before the program was terminated by Prime Minister John Diefenbaker on February 20, 1959. Known ever since as Black Friday, on that day over 14,000 employees lost their jobs and the Canadian aerospace industry changed forever, never again to produce a state-of-the-art military aircraft. One of the most advanced fighter aircraft in the world at the time, the Arrow was an almost inconceivable achievement by a company that only thirteen years earlier was manufacturing Lancaster bombers under license during World War II.
