2023 is quickly coming to an end. However, there are still many trade shows & conferences scheduled. Speaking of that, George DeCock is hitting the road and attending some of these shows.

If you didn't know, George is our ASOG Ambassador – and not coincidentally our first ASOG member. As he travels, he engages aircrew and industry to support the mission of ASOG.

With that, George just sent us his updated 2023 World Tour schedule. If you're attending any of the shows below and want to network with a fellow ASOGer, contact George. Tell him at [e-mail] or [phone], which shows you'll be visiting. Without a doubt, if you meet up with George at one of these events, you won't regret it—his knowledge, experience, and network of Who's Who is extensive:

• GDH/17-19OCT - Warsaw/Poland (stand & presentation)
• GSOF/24-26OCT - Brno/Czech Republic
• AD&S/6-9NOV - BKK/Thailand (visit)
• Airshow/13-17NOV - Dubai/UAE (stand and TwinOtter ISR aircraft)
• EuropeanROTORS/28-30Nov - Madrid/Spain (stand)

If you don't know George, for 30+ years, George has been involved in the engineering and marketing of LoS/BLoS Coms, EW, Radar, EO/IR, and ISR systems. He presently enjoys work and life as the SCAR-pod and Sensors/Mission Specialist for Airborne Technologies, concentrating on new ISR technologies and new applications of existing ones. George focuses on developing new techniques, sensors, and customer requirements worldwide, specifically emphasizing any technology that will further enhance the capabilities of the Airborne LINX/SCAR-pod and ultimately reduce crew workload and increase mission efficiency.

He firmly believes in applying R-COTS and open-architecture software for all airborne surveillance systems. Furthermore, he is convinced that the future belongs to using small, multi-purpose aircraft and pods equipped with integrated multi-role sensors. He is working on several programs optimizing payloads for manned and unmanned surveillance missions and will share his experience and views on new ISR capabilities for airborne platforms. As a true Ambassador, he is always ready to talk about ASOG and sign up new members at any airshow or conference.
