Proceedings CD-ROMs and individual papers are now available for two recent AHS International technical meetings. CD-ROMs are available for $105 for AHS members and $145.00 for non-members.

The AHS International Technical Meeting on Rotorcraft Structures and Survivability was held Oct. 24-26 in Hampton, Virginia, sponsored by the AHS Hampton Roads Chapter. It was a great success with more than 100 attendees, providing an excellent interchange of the latest information on crash safety, survivability and structures.

The theme of the 2½ day conference was “Innovative Structures and Survivability Solutions for Vertical Lift.” The meeting highlighted research and development efforts, both current and planned, related to manned and unmanned rotorcraft structures, crash safety and vulnerability reduction.

You can now order the conference CD-ROM, with 27 presentations, or the individual PDF files. Individual PDF files of the presentations are available for download at $10 each for AHS members and $20 for non-members. (Attendees were provided with a link to download the presentations.)

Next year, the AHS Hampton Roads Chapter plans to host 18th Helicopter Military Operations Technology Meeting (HELMOT XVIII), Oct. 24-25, 2018. Plan now to attend!

6th Asian-Australian Rotorcraft Forum/Heli Japan 2017 was held Nov. 7-9 in Kanazawa, Japan. The event was sponsored by the AHS Japan Chapter/Japan Helicopter Society.

More than 170 people attended from around the world to present and discuss the latest advances and topics in advanced rotorcraft technology and safety operations.

The conference CD-ROM, with more than 80 technical papers, as well as the individual PDF files, are now available. Individual PDF files of the papers are available for download at $15 each for AHS members and $30 for non-members. (Attendees were provided with the CD-ROMs on site.)
