WEBINAR 19th August |
|
Have you ever wondered what it feels like to sit in the space shuttle as it is about to launch....do you wonder what it takes to become an astronaut, would you like to be a part of the team designing and building the rockets that will take us to Mars? Learn how STEM is used for space travel. Join us for a special double screening of: COOL AERONAUTICS: A Day in the Life of an Astronaut - Dr. Andrew Thomas Dr. Andrew Thomas, Australia’s first NASA astronaut, and Colonel Pam Melroy, retired Space Shuttle Commander, will share their insights into what it takes to become part of the exciting world of space travel and how STEM and the subjects you do at school and university can help you achieve your goals for space travel. We will be joined by Marija Jovanovich, RAAF Test Pilot, who can answer your questions about just what it takes to become a test pilot and what it feels like to fly over 30 different aircraft and James Blagg Flight Test Engineer who will discuss the application of STEM in the work he does. |

WEBINAR 21st August |
|
Join the Cool Aeronautics Team from the Royal Aeronautical Society Australian Division Queensland Branch as they explore the Engineering Design Process in action. Engineers are often described as problem solvers, they use creativity and technology to find solutions to human needs. During this webinar Wade Smith, while working on his thesis at Plane Support will demonstrate how he uses the Engineering Design Process for a real world application. His task is to create a new Aero-medical component and this may not be as straight forward as it seems. It is a wonderful opportunity to learn more about how engineering transforms an abstract idea into a physical solution through the combination of creative thinking and technology. This webinar would be of interest to students (high school and university), teachers and the general community. Presenters: Fraser Wright - Director Plane Support Wade Smith - Plane Support Additional Information |

WEBINAR 27th August Ultra Long Haul Operations: An Emerging Business Model Accelerated by COVID-19 |
|
The COVID-19 outbreak has sent shockwaves throughout the aviation industry, sending a myriad of liquidity-strapped airlines into administration or part government ownership. In turn, during this webinar, Linus Benjamin Bauer from Bauer Aviation Advisory and Daniel Bloch from Bloch Aviation Advisory will argue that the novel phenomenon of Ultra Long Haul (ULH) operations already maintains the necessary characteristics to generate a competitive advantage that will not only succeed, but outperform other business models, in a post COVID-19 era. Presenters: Linus Benjamin Bauer Director - Bauer Aviation Advisory Daniel Bloch Director - Bloch Aviation Advisory Articles: Thesis Ultra Long Haul - Daniel Bloch Ultra Long Haul: An emerging business model accelerated by COVID-19 |
