Aero-Linx!
Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.
The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.
Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.
Aero Linx: The National Test Pilot School (NTPS)
A graduate, himself, ANN's Jim Campbell has fond memories of the the National Test Pilot School (NTPS). The claim the title of being the Premier Total Flight Test Education and Training Organization in the World. A lofty claim perhaps, yet the diversity and breadth of the flight test education and training conducted at NTPS is unsurpassed in the industry. NTPS is the World’s first and only Accredited Test Pilot School and the first to attain EASA certification. We offer over 30 different flight test courses, from the year-long Professional Courses to numerous short courses to our Master’s degrees. NTPS can truly meet all your flight test education and training needs. NTPS also conducts flight test research both internally and partnered with notable research organizations. Celebrating nearly 40 years of service to civil industry, government organizations, and military services in both the USA and around the world; NTPS is indeed the World’s Test Pilot School.
