Recent video projects from UND Aerospace include content on a variety of aviation topics, featuring the facilities at UND Aerospace and early aviator Florence Klingensmith. The videos aim to highlight historical and contemporary aspects of aviation.

Florence Klingensmith is a notable figure in aviation history, earning the nickname “Tree Tops” as she broke through gender barriers in the field. Her story is captured in one of the videos, showcasing her pioneering efforts.

Additionally, there is a featured discussion with three flight instructors from UND. They shared their experiences of navigating around Hurricane Helene. This occurred during a flight from Vero Beach, Florida, where they collected three new Piper Archer aircraft. These insights provide a glimpse into the challenges and experiences of modern aviation training and practices.

For those interested in exploring more about these topics and other aspects of university life, the videos are available on UND’s and UND Aerospace’s YouTube pages.
