“The goal of the panel is to expose our members to the many career opportunities which exist in the rotary segment of aviation,” says WAI President Dr. Peggy Chabrian. “We want to highlight helicopters at this year’s Conference to underscore this segment of the industry as one of the many avenues our members can take as they pursue their careers.”
