Oklahoma: The Global Aerospace Destination

Welcome to the Oklahoma Aerospace Summit & Expo and the Aerospace Education and Training Day Website!

On June 23-25, 2008 Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center, Rose State College, Federal Aviation Administration, and The State Chamber will once again host the seventh annual Oklahoma Aerospace Summit & Expo at the Cox Convention Center in Oklahoma City. The Summit brings industry leaders, government officials, educators and technology centers together to discuss the future of aerospace and to network with counterparts. New in 2008, the Summit will feature both commercial and government aerospace leaders and issues, outstanding presenters and over 100 exhibitors. In addition, a select group of volunteers has coordinated an Aerospace Education and Training Day which will be held on Wednesday, June 25 also at the Cox Center. The Summit, Expo and Education & Training Day will be co-locating this year with the 15th International Flight Inspection Symposium.

The issues facing the aerospace industry today are critical to both our national security and worldwide economy. Maintaining the health of the industry and exploring opportunities for its growth require creativity and innovation. Oklahoma is a key player in the growing aerospace industry, including Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) and manufacturing. Education, training and workforce development in the aerospace fields are also priority issues. The Aerospace Education and Training Day on June 25 will address these and other important education related topics.

The Oklahoma Aerospace Summit, Expo and Education and Training Day is an opportunity to recognize and further Oklahoma's growing role as a leader in the aerospace industry!
