Pentastar was proud to host Aerospace After Hours, bringing together members of the aviation community for an evening benefiting the Aerospace Industry Association of Michigan.

The evening featured “Time Machines: Business Aviation’s Dynamic Journey,” with authors Richard Aboulafia and Kevin Michaels of AeroDynamic Advisory (pictured) sharing insights from their book.

Guests also had the opportunity to connect with industry leaders and see a demonstration of the Airtrek Robotics wing-walking robots—innovative autonomous technology Pentastar is integrating into its operations.

Thanks to the generosity of attendees and partners, the event raised nearly $17,000 in support of the AIAM Foundation and its mission.

It was a memorable evening celebrating the partnerships, innovation and shared commitment that continue to propel Michigan’s aerospace community forward.
