This year’s summit brings together industry leaders from Ampaire and Reliable Robotics for a dynamic panel discussion focused on two of the most critical challenges facing general aviation today: sustainability and safety. In addition to sharing insights into cutting‑edge technologies\, the panelists will reflect on their own career journeys—highlighting how curiosity\, persistence\, and personal growth have shaped their paths in aviation. \nAmpaire is pioneering hybrid‑electric aircraft technology that reduces fuel consumption\, emissions\, and noise while making regional air travel more accessible and efficient. By retrofitting existing aircraft with electric propulsion systems\, Ampaire is working toward a more sustainable future for aviation without requiring entirely new infrastructure. Reliable Robotics\, meanwhile\, is advancing autonomous flight systems designed to dramatically improve aviation safety by automating all phases of flight—from taxi to landing—while remaining fully compatible with existing airspace and aircraft. Together\, these companies offer a powerful look at how innovation is transforming aviation today. The Aviation Innovation Summit aims to inspire curiosity about the rapidly evolving general aviation industry and encourage the next generation to pursue their interests\, explore new technologies\, and imagine their own futures in aviation. \nSummit included with museum admission.

Within the X\, a subtle design draws inspiration from the Hiller-copter XH-44\, honoring the innovation and aviation legacy rooted in San Carlos. \nMore than a finisher’s medal\, it represents ten years of footsteps on tarmac and a milestone where ground and sky stories intersect. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Post-Race Fair & Activities:\n\nRefreshments\nSponsor booths\nHiller Aviation Museum Exhibits and Aircraft\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n For more info\, contact: Audie Amirkiai\, VP of Development\, at audie@hiller.org or 650-654-0200 x203. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Aviator Sponsors\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n – \n \n \nMark Jon Bluth\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Navigator Sponsors\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Explorer Sponsors\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Adventurer Sponsors\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Ground Crew Sponsors\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Frequently Asked Questions\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n What time should I arrive on Race Day?\n\nSuggested arrival time is 6:30 to 7 am.\nDoors open at 7 am on Sunday\, April 12.

Peninsula NTRAK modules are built to international NTRAK standards\, allowing the modules to be joined by others worldwide. The club has participated in numerous local shows each year\, and many members have taken their modules to conventions up and down the West Coast\, including the national conventions of the National Model Railroad Association in Sacramento in 2011 and in Portland\, Oregon\, in August 2015. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Exploiting the advantages of N scale\, which is just 1/160 the size of real trains\, the layout can run the long trains that represent North American mainline railroading in the U.S.\, Canada and Mexico – with occasional visits by trains from other parts of the world\, including high speed bullet trains\, Caltrain and even Thomas\, The Tank Engine!

We run models of the famous Glacier Express and Bernina Express trains\, as well as local passenger trains and freight trains from all these companies. \nIn addition to the pleasant Swiss scenery our modules\, we have two particularly attractive areas\, a model of the Chamby station on the MOB line\, and a stone arch viaduct that goes into a tunnel reminiscent of the Landwasser Viaduct on the RhB network.

My just-completed manuscript is based on my grandfather\, an aviation pioneer\, who died when my father was only four years old. Like many who have written family-based stories\, I initially did not set out to write a full book. \nMy inspiration came from my grandmother. When she passed away at ninety-nine\, I inherited her collection of never-before-seen photographs\, articles\, and an extensive array of newspaper clippings. What began as a casual attempt to learn more about my ancestors for a short Shutterfly project turned into an eight-year journey of discovery. \nWhether our experiences with family are positive or negative\, family often serves as the cornerstone of our lives\, with each family being unique in its own way\, shaped by its history\, traditions\, and shared experiences. Filling in the gaps of the past can be both challenging and rewarding. Every story\, every discovery\, can provide unexpected insights into our own journeys. Delving into the past can also lead to family myths being shattered and uncomfortable truths being revealed. Yet\, the truth can also bring liberation\, freeing us from the burden of the unknown. While working on the book\, I learned that my grandfather was not only an airline founder but also a World War I submariner\, so if you’re thinking about writing about your forebearers\, I say damn the torpedoes and full speed ahead. \nRyann Willis is the granddaughter of airline pioneer Jack Maddux and the first cousin of Senator John McCain. She graduated from UCLA and is a former employee of Apple\, Inc.\, as well as the owner of a successful art dealing and appraisal business. She currently serves as a member of the Board of Directors of the Aero Club of Southern California\, where she also holds the position of Historian. Additionally\, she is an active member of several aviation organizations\, including the NAA\, the Society for Aviation History\, and the National Aviation Hall of Fame.

A graduate of UC Berkeley and the University of Houston\, Walheim began his career as an Air Force flight test engineer before being selected as a NASA astronaut in 1996. Over the next two decades\, he became one of the program’s most experienced mission specialists and spacewalkers. \nWalheim flew on three Space Shuttle missions\, including STS-135 in 2011 — the final flight of the Space Shuttle Program. He spent 36 days in space and completed five spacewalks totaling more than 36 hours\, helping build and outfit the International Space Station. At NASA\, he also served as CAPCOM\, led the Spacewalking Branch\, helped develop early ISS operations procedures\, and later guided safety and mission assurance for human spaceflight programs. \nAfter retiring from NASA\, Walheim continued shaping the future of space exploration\, serving in senior leadership roles at Axiom Space and later Blue Origin\, where he now works on astronaut crew integration. His career reflects a lifetime devoted to science\, aviation\, and inspiring the next generation. \n \n \n \n \n \n Don’t miss this must-attend event!\nMeet a real NASA Space Shuttle Astronaut — Rex Walheim\, who grew up right here in San Carlos — and give your family the chance to hear his incredible firsthand stories from the final Space Shuttle mission.
