Aviation
Week is excited to announce the first-ever MRO Military Conference
on April 20, 2004 at the Cobb Galleria Centre.
|
Preceding the industry-renowned annual MRO Conference
& Exhibition, the MRO Military Conference explores
the current and future military trends as well as provides
strategies on shortening the tail of the supply chain
and working with the private sector. The concept of
autonomic logistics will also be presented and discussions
will focus on its effects as it is rolled out across
all platforms - starting with the F-35 Joint Strike
Fighter.
You should have received your registration package
in the mail several weeks ago. If you have not, we urge
you to sign
up on-line now and avoid the lines at MRO 2004.
