		President’s Message Earlier this month, I had the privilege to present one of IAWAs 2017 scholarships to aerospace engineering student Sumana Mukhersee at TU Delft in the Netherlands. As part of the presentation, I met with a group of TU Delft students and faculty. It was truly inspiring to meet and hear from so many extraordinary young women. The future will be bright indeed with these talented women entering the workforce and becoming tomorrow’s aviation and aerospace leaders.
