On Thursday 4 June "Aerospace Up! hour" is taking a break.

We look forward to seeing you next week.

About Aerospace Up! hour

Come along with your coffee! Arrive five minutes early if you can -- like a "real" meeting -- to help us start on time.
You’ll be able to send us your questions and comments during the meeting.
You can stay behind afterwards to say hello, chill, network, ask questions, as you normally would
(All that's missing is the biscuits!)
