Hawaii Aerospace Advisory Committee
The Hawaii state legislature (through Act 52, Session Laws of 2009) established the Hawaii Aerospace Advisory Committee (HAAC) to advise and assist Office of Aerospace Development, the legislature, and state agencies in monitoring, assessing, and promoting aerospace development statewide. The committee is comprised of leading aerospace industry executives, distinguished academicians from across the state, and economic development board representatives from Oahu, Kauai, Maui, and Hawaii – all united with a common purpose of helping the state diversify its economy and to promote innovative education and employment opportunities for residents statewide.
