Delegates will also get a behind-the-scenes look at Brisbane Air Traffic Control, RAAF Base Amberley and Boeing Flight Services, as well as participate in workshops and networking opportunities.
Aspiring or successful aerospace engineers, pilots, airline executives, as well as those already working in aviation in areas such as air traffic controller or airport operations, are encouraged to attend.
