Passengers will again take vacations, the demand for freight will resume, and the number of aircraft produced for military and research purposes will scale back up. It is likely that the industry will still represent a decade of growth, despite a worldwide catastrophe.
As the initial impacts of the pandemic begin to subside, the aerospace industry will turn its attention towards the increased usage of next-generation technologies to increase efficiency amid the ‘new normal’.
One such technology is Inline Computed Tomography (CT): revolutionary scanning which will empower increased capability in the next generation of aviation manufacturing...
