Chris Daniels & Andy Barton give an overview of Hybrid Aircraft and the Airlander, outlining how it combines the best of aerodynamic and aerostatic lift. They explain why this green and innovative form of flying is so ground-breaking.

Sir Brian Burridge, Vice President Strategic Marketing, Finmeccanica speaks at the 2014 Sopwith Lecture and discusses the sustainability of 'Growth Partnerships' in the aerospace and defence sectors and what are the long-term implications for the creation of intellectual property in the UK?

Professor Hodges is the leading expert on consumer ADR

systems and explain the options for air carriers and the

strategies that need to be addressed moving forward.

This lecture, delivered by Paolo Ferri, Head of Mission Operations Department at the European Space Operations Centre within the European Space Agency, introduces the Rosetta mission and its scientific objectives, describing also the spacecraft, its payload and its lander.

This lecture explores the categories of influence against the build-up of jet aircraft in the period from 1945 -1955. It will cover the significant contribution made by Sir Frank Whittle to in-service jet engine reliability and maintainability, the issues of new types of fuel and lubricants, flight line hazards and handling, aircraft support and aircrew survival systems, trade skills and technical organisation as the RAF entered the jet age.

This lecture reviews the use of simulation during the early development of the 787, and then highlights how flight testing contributed to the final development of the 787 training simulators.
