James Sergeant: X-59 Speaker Event 15 February 2024 5 p.m. - 6 p.m. (Central Standard Time) UTDesign Makerspace, SPN 2.220, Online
Hosted by the AIAA University of Texas (UTD) Student Branch
We are excited to host James Sergeant and his experience with the X-59 this Thursday, 5PM, in the UTDesign Makerspace!
James Sergeant has had an extensive career at Lockheed Martin (Skunkworks) and is a current flight test engineer at Virgin Galactic. He has worked with the development of the X-59 and is excited to talk about his experiences!
The X-59 is an experimental super-sonic aircraft meant to revolutionize modern aviation. The X-59 was developed specifically to soften the "thump" associated with surpassing speeds of Mach 1 (super-sonic). Join us to learn more about how this aircraft was developed and how it is ushering in a new era of flight!
See you there!
