Still in the middle of its worst crisis, the commercial aviation industry hopes to begin recovery soon as vaccinations become more broadly available.

The consequences for both airlines and manufacturers will be profound.

Aerospace manufacturing has been turned on its head almost overnight. Geared for record-high monthly production rates, the industrial base suddenly faces OEMs running at a quarter, third or even half as much for years, depending on the program. Liquidity remains a top concern, and consolidation is speeding up. Relationships are being redefined. Digitally, everything will change, with every month post-pandemic equal to a year pre-COVID. The market may change, too, with supersonic, UAM and hybrid-electric and sustainable fuels racing toward implementation.

The Annual Aerospace Manufacturing Conference seeks to shed light on these topics and help provide firm grounding for industry to take flight again. Find out more.
