The sUSB Exposition in San Francisco is well known for hosting industry leaders and top tier experts in the unmanned systems world. The sUAS News is pleased to facilitate this opportunity to hear Dr. McGeer talk about his work, his views on technology and the realities of the industry.


He is the founder and President of Aerovel, www.aerovelco.com which produces the remarkable VTOL Flexrotor aircraft. His accolades are numerous, and his groundbreaking work includes the first transatlantic flight with development of the Aerosonde system and the first unmanned transatlantic flight in 1998. He went on to develop the Seascan system which made the longest-ever flight for a ship-based aircraft in 2004, while the GeoRanger variant made the first unmanned geomagnetic surveys, and the Scaneagle military variant was adopted by the US Marines and Navy.  

Many hold Dr. McGeer in high regard as a pioneer and living legend in the field of aerial robotics. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to see him in person and plan on attending the world’s premier commercial and small business symposium April 27, 28 and 29th in San Francisco California!
