Flight Test Safety Committee
The Flight Test Safety Committee (FTSC) was formed jointly in November 1994 by members of the Society of Experimental Test Pilots (SETP), the Society of Flight Test Engineers (SFTE) and the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). These and numerous additional organizations presently comprise the FTSC. The purpose of the FTSC is to initiate and sustain a flight test related safety organization intended to promote flight safety, reduce the risk of mishap, promote risk reduction management and continually improve the profession's communication and coordination.

Flight Test Safety Fact 23-09
It's back to school time, and Turbo makes an interesting observation that correlates what we did in school with what's in this issue.
There is a lot to read in this issue, but the simple fact that so many of our readers are weighing in is a good thing--a great thing really--discussion means the newsletter is doing what it ought. In this issue, you will find three letters to the editor, some fanciful observations about book covers and art and even dealing a hand of cards.
So whether you want to weigh in on the probability of a losing poker hand or join the STPA function vs component conversation, we hope to hear from you.
While you are at your Annual Symposium, take notes and share those too with the editor, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it., because connecting you and sharing your insights with other readers is why we are here.
Sincerely,
Mark Jones Jr.
Editor
