At Forum 81, two members received recognition as VFS Honorary Fellows, which are granted to Society members whose career-based leadership, vision or other meritorious contribution has advanced significantly the interests of Vertical Flight Society and the vertical flight community.
Mike Hirschberg, Vertical Flight Society, was honored for his contributions over the past three decades, which reflect his deep commitment to advancing vertical flight and aerospace education, while making a significant impact on technology, policy and the global community across industry, academia and government agencies.
