Gary Ash, a NASA aircraft maintenance chief, said he would discuss why aircrafts are necessary for the agency’s missions, during his talk Wednesday titled Maintaining NASA’s Aircraft Fleet. Ash, an engineering alumnus, works at the Johnson Space Center and ensures contractors stay on track with federal government building. “I’m interested in letting people know about NASA’s capability and history of operating aircraft in support of the space program,” he said. “People need to know what we’re doing and what we’ll potentially be doing.” More than 100 people are registered to attend. Only people interested in aircrafts and spacecrafts will enjoy the talk, Ash said. “There will be no charts, numbers, or names,” he said. “It’ll all be done with photos.” The College of Engineering and the Arlington Technology Association will sponsor Ash’s visit. Attendance is free for Arlington Technology Association members and UTA students, but others have to pay $5 for admission. Views: 352 | E-mail
