Each year, ATEC solicits aviation technician educators to suggest topics of interest for presentation at the annual conference. Several responded to the call and submitted abstracts for consideration; two were selected by the review committee. The following papers will be presented at the ATEC annual conference in Atlanta on April 9-12, 2016. Thanks to all those who submitted papers for consideration!
