When was the last time you left a workshop and felt productive? WBI's facilitation services are so much more than reserving a room or managing the clock. We help build an agenda with customized sessions that will drive to outcomes faster, making your time away from day-to-day work more efficient and productive. Our facilitators also have years of experience supporting the US Air Force and other DoD agencies, many of whom have served or supported the defense community for decades. That gives us a keen understanding of the problems of the day. Ready to learn more? Visit https://lnkd.in/gcf9p9c5 to learn more.

It's going to be a great week at Kirtland AFB! WBI has been on the front end of digital airworthiness for several years. Learn more about how our assessments, concept ideation, and solution development services assisted the development of digital prototypes to accelerate the airworthiness process! Wright Brothers Institute Aids in Building Pre-Prototype Application for Digital Airworthiness Initiative | Wright Brothers Institute (wbi-innovates.com)
Mile Two's own Layla Akilan is at Kirtland AFB Oct 17-18 showcasing our Airworthiness Assistant as well as Morphy-AI ™️ , our RAG model LLM. Airworthiness is about ensuring an aircraft is safe and capable for flight. The compliance challenge--and importance--of meeting national and international regulations is immense, as is the workload of parsing through monumental quantities of data. We make that job easier. If you're at Kirtland, stop by the Mile Two booth and say 'hi' to Layla! 👋 Shoutout to our Dayton-based partner, The Wright Brothers Institute, who is sponsoring this event, in conjunction with the Air Force Research Laboratory. #airworthiness #aviation #aeronautics
