Thanks to our own "ageing systems", Sally and I will no longer be running the AA&S (Australia) Conference, and efforts are underway to identify an organisation to manage future Conferences.
At this time, no organisation has been identified so the 2020 AA&S (Australia) Conference has been cancelled, as has the ongoing contract with our venue, the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre (BCEC).
Please note that when transition does occur, the AA&S (Australia) Conference will remain a neutral, non-profit event for the benfit of all elements of the aerospace community, and will continue its affiliation, cooperation and collaboration with its sister US AA&S Conference.
Running this Conference over many years has indeed been a pleasure and I look forward to seeing it continue. I would also like to thank all those who have supported the event during that time. I hope to be no stranger to the Conference but will no longer be organising and running it.
I will provide further transition updates via this website.
Richard Gauntlett
Conference Chairman
