The SAE International G-35 committee on “Modeling, Simulation, and Training for Emerging Aviation Technologies and Concepts” is unique, in that, it addresses the complete certification process from aircraft certification to training device to pilot on-board and remotely operated vehicle certification. With three subcommittees working in concert to build consensus standards, G-35 brings diverse global industry experts together to work jointly to develop consensus standards and accelerate the process of certification and training. Making Dreams and Innovation possible.
This Webinar will introduce the committee, its leadership, objectives, and involved stakeholders, who represent industry, research, government, aviation associations, and certification authorities, and discuss how G-35 is enabling digital transformation by integrating modeling, simulation, digital twin, and AI into end-to-end standards that can be adopted by CAAs to support a totally new transport modality.
An audience Q&A follows the technical presentation.
