AIAA High Speed Task Force: Aviation Panel Survey
The AIAA has facilitated a task force to characterize the landscape, roadblocks, and potential opportunities in the realm of high speed flight (>Mach 1). This survey is used in support of the High Speed Flight Panel session as a way to quantitatively identify the thoughts and interest of the audience in attendance of the panel session. The completion of this survey is completely voluntary, and all information will be used by the AIAA and this Task Force in an anonymous manner. Completion of this survey should take anywhere between 5-15 minutes.

Increase membership participation in high speed flight topics through a Commercial High Speed Flight Committee
Facilitate international workshops for important topics such as Emissions, Sonic Booms, and Policy
Facilitate a national workshop to characterize the potential return on investment for the development of HSF vehicles
Organize a cadre of mission and cost analysis experts willing to work for needy companies on a pro-bono basis
Convene and provide financial support for a moderated panel to discuss the "Economics of Concord" and related lessons learned
Support additional research and material development in technical areas with large gaps in HSF such as in emissions and environmental impacts
Serve as an objective technical leader for developing short and long-term policy roadmaps
Encourage existing technical committees to create more how-to guides for design-oriented engineers
Create an improved search interface that allows for engineers to search for relevant data by topics and subject matter
Connect scientists and regulatory bodies (FAA, ICAO-CAEP, EASA, etc...) to share environmental research through a dedicated committee
