The state of Ohio is looking for members of the public with expertise in aviation and aerospace technology to serve on a state panel. State Representative, Rick Perales, a Beavercreek Republican, chairs the Ohio Aerospace and Aviation Technology Committee. He says applicants for the group could include military representatives, academic experts or industry leaders.

Perales says the only way for Ohio to succeed in promoting its major aviation and aerospace sectors is through collaboration with experts on how to move forward.
