Genghis,

"1300 – 1330 German Aviation Advanced Technology in WW II
by Eric M. Brown (HF), Capt, RN (Ret)"

My guess would be that the Herky-bird GPWS session is going to be very late if they allow a question time. Can I hope that Captain Brown's session will be recorded for posterity and suitable DVD copies be available for those who can not attend?

Not much for the Rotes, unless Eric Brown touches on German helicopter research in his bit.
Good to see that the final item is another Billie Flynn paper: the Euro Symp wouldn't be the same without one. Always great content and entertainment!

Idle stop. I have to disagree with you a little bit. The lessons from flight test and evaluation are relevant to all. Just because the method of lift and propulsion are slightly different, does not mean that it may not be of interest. Having 'swung both ways' in my career, I am never failed to be amazed by how FW types always dismiss RW, and vice versa. There are lessons to be learnt from all arenas of aviation. Even microlights....possibly

Presumably the lack of helicopter papers is because nobody in the rotary flight test world offered any. I can't imagine the organisers excluding them - after all they included the microlight paper, not to mention a UAV - which presumably doesn't even have a seat for the TP!!!

OK,OK! Quite right: I always enjoy the F/W papers and it is a mind-broadening experience, which is what it should be about. And yes, we probably have ourselves to blame that there's no Rotary content per se. I have presented in the past; perhaps by next year I may have something interesting to talk about again. If not, I'll sit back and learn and listen from others, of whatever discipline, and enjoy meeting old (and new) buddies. See you in Dresden, those who are going.
