The Aircraft Hall is a dynamic research and educational space home to cutting-edge labs and equipment dedicated to materials, structures, and aerospace innovation. Established in 1967, it has evolved from a collection of aircraft for educational study to a hub for experimental research. Key areas include chemical polymer development, composite processing, mechanical testing, and physical characterization, all supported by expert technical staff. The hall also houses unique facilities like the Cyberzoo for drone testing, the Scaled Aircraft Lab for alternative aircraft designs, and the latest labs for bio-based materials and planetary condition simulation.
