About the Local Group:
Our society, which joined the EUROAVIA family by organizing the Hot Wings Symposium event, has continued to work under the title of EUROAVIA AS Kocaeli since then. Hot Wings Symposium was organized on 18th-22nd February 2019. In this symposium, we provide social and technical skills training, symposia, technical trips, city tours, etc.
Before our EUROAVIA adventure, our society’s name was GTU Aerospace Society. Since we joined the EUROAVIA family, we decided to unite our powers.
Our local group is also one of the local groups that have no faculty of Aeronautics and Aerospace. That shows our passion for aviation, space fields, and most importantly to EUROAVIA family.
