On 17 April, the AIAA National Capital Section (NCS) hosted Ravi Chaudhary, former Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Energy, Installations, and Environment and currently a strategic advisor to JetZero, at AIAA Headquarters for a presentation on the future of blended wing body aircraft and their potential to revolutionize sustainable aviation. Drawing from his experience across military, government, and industry, Chaudhary shared a unique perspective on the challenges and opportunities ahead for next-gen aerospace.
Section members also had the opportunity to attend the AIAA Awards Gala on 30 April, and celebrate individuals who have made tremendous achievements during their remarkable careers. NCS invited leaders from George Washington University, George Mason University, and Catholic University student branches to attend and draw inspiration from the contributions of these individuals.
