WHEN DID YOU KNOW?
• When did you know you wanted to work in aerospace?– For some it was a specific moment, for others it was a gradual
realization that space and flight had captured their imagination and wouldn’t let go
• Over the next year, AIAA members will share what inspired them. We hope you enjoy reading them and that you will share your own “When Did You Know?” moment.
