4–8 JANUARY 2016 SAN DIEGO, CA The Largest Event for Aerospace Research, Development, and Technology FINAL PROGRAM www.aiaa-SciTech.org #aiaaSciTech 16-928 WHAT’S IMPOSSIBLE TODAY WON’T BE TOMORROW. AT LOCKHEED MARTIN, WE’RE ENGINEERING A BETTER TOMORROW. We are partnering with our customers to accelerate manufacturing innovation from the laboratory to production. We push the limits in additive manufacturing, advanced materials, digital manufacturing and next generation electronics. Whether it is solving a global crisis like the need for clean drinking water or travelling even deeper into space, advanced manufacturing is opening the doors to the next great human revolution. Learn more at lockheedmartin.com © 2014 LOCKHEED MARTIN CORPORATION VC377_164 Executive Steering Committee AIAA SciTech 2016 2O16 Welcome Welcome to the AIAA Science and Technology Forum and Exposition 2016 (AIAA SciTech 2016) – the world’s largest event for aerospace research, development, and technology. We are confident that you will come away from San Diego inspired and with the tools necessary to continue shaping the future of aerospace in new and exciting ways. From hearing preeminent industry thought leaders, to attending sessions where cutting- edge research will be unveiled, to interacting with peers – this will be a most fulfilling week! Our organizing committee has worked hard over the past year to ensure that our plenary sessions examine the most critical issues facing aerospace today, such as aerospace science and Richard George Lesieutre technology policy, lessons learned from a half century of aerospace innovation, resilient design, Christiansen The Pennsylvania and unmanned aerial systems. We will also focus on how AIAA and other stakeholders in State University Sierra Lobo, Inc. academia, government, and industry can work together to best serve the aerospace community. The Forum 360 program offers you the chance to dive deeper into the topics discussed in the plenary sessions and consider them from multiple angles. Topics to be covered include: how scientists and engineers can communicate better with the public about their work and achievements; how the International Space Station can be used to further research and development; how lessons from other industries can improve cybersecurity in aviation; how additive manufacturing can be used for aerospace applications; what educators can do to put the “E” in STEM; and what design and imagination lessons can be captured from Hollywood Mason Peck Robie for use in aerospace. Samanta Roy Cornell University The forum’s technical program provides opportunities to hear the presentation of Lockheed Martin groundbreaking research across the aerospace science and technology fields. These Corporation presentations will not only show you how your peers are overcoming the challenges that are posed by the advancement of aerospace science and technology, but will stimulate your own creativity, inspiring you to tackle new challenges and further progress the state of the art in our community. While you are with us this week, be sure to spend some time in the Exposition Hall. More than 50 companies and organizations are showcasing their innovative products and services and with the wide variety of technology on display, you are sure to see something new. John Tracy Ann Zulkosky AIAA SciTech 2016 offers something for every aerospace professional, regardless of the role you play in our community. We are excited to offer you this program, and we can’t wait to see The Boeing Company Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company how you will take the information presented and lessons learned and use it to shape the future of aerospace and your career!

    FAA Advisory Circular 20-97B

    Subject: AIRCRAFT TIRE MAINTENANCE Date: 4/18/05 AC No.: 20-97B AND OPERATIONAL PRACTICES Initiated by: AFS-306 Change: 1. PURPOSE. This advisory circular (AC) provides recommended tire care and maintenance practices needed to assure the safety of support personnel and the continued airworthiness of aircraft. Specifically, this AC provides guidance on the installation, inflation, maintenance, and removal of aircraft tires. In addition, this AC provides guidance on those operational practices necessary to maintain safe aircraft operations. This AC is not mandatory and does not constitute a regulation. It is issued for guidance purposes and to outline acceptable tire maintenance and operational practices. In lieu of following this method without deviation, operators may elect to follow an alternative method that has also been found acceptable by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). 2.

    "The Olympics Don't Take American Express"

    “…..and the Olympics didn’t take American Express” Chapter One: How ‘Bout Those Cowboys I inherited a predisposition for pain from my father, Ron, a born and raised Buffalonian with a self- mutilating love for the Buffalo Bills. As a young boy, he kept scrap books of the All American Football Conference’s original Bills franchise. In the 1950s, when the AAFC became the National Football League and took only the Cleveland Browns, San Francisco 49ers, and Baltimore Colts with it, my father held out for his team. In 1959, when my father moved the family across the country to San Jose, California, Ralph Wilson restarted the franchise and brought Bills’ fans dreams to life. In 1960, during the Bills’ inaugural season, my father resumed his role as diehard fan, and I joined the ranks. It’s all my father’s fault. My father was the one who tapped his childhood buddy Larry Felser, a writer for the Buffalo Evening News, for tickets. My father was the one who took me to Frank Youell Field every year to watch the Bills play the Oakland Raiders, compliments of Larry. By the time I had celebrated Cookie Gilcrest’s yardage gains, cheered Joe Ferguson’s arm, marveled over a kid called Juice, adapted to Jim Kelly’s K-Gun offense, got shocked by Thurman Thomas’ receptions, felt the thrill of victory with Kemp and Golden Wheels Dubenion, and suffered the agony of defeat through four straight Super Bowls, I was a diehard Bills fan. Along with an entourage of up to 30 family and friends, I witnessed every Super Bowl loss.
