“Our industry continues to face significant challenges in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic; applying our innovation, community focus, and commitment to addressing global challenges head-on will be essential to our success in the post-COVID world” (Dan Dumbacher, Aerospace America, July/August 2020). How can we continue our cross-industry and cross-functional collaboration to solve big-picture issues such as sustainability, electrification of flight, commercial hypersonics, and more?
