Main Page

This is the main page for the Vanderbilt Aerospace Club Wiki. This wiki will help to provide continuity from one year to the next. I am William Runge, current president of the Vanderbilt Aerospace club, and I am going to do my best to make sure that all of the knowledge accumulated by myself and other members of this organization gets put on this website before I graduate, so that people following in our footsteps do not have to reinvent the wheel. I have always been impressed by the NCSU Aerial Robotics Club wiki (http://art1.mae.ncsu.edu/twiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome), and so I'm hoping that through this website, all of the knowledge accumulated by myself, Robin, and the previous members of this club will remain accessible to current and future members.
