Forum 66 -- Gain Access to a
Dynamic Aerospace Region!

Exhibiting at Forum 66 will introduce your company to a region that plays a key manufacturing role in both civil and military rotorcraft. The Arizona aerospace and aviation industries employs more than 250,000 professionals, many dedicated to the design and manufacturing of aircraft, engines and propulsion technology, weapon systems, and auxiliary equipment or parts. Major helicopter technology firms operating in Arizona include the Boeing Company, Honeywell, BAE Systems and MD Helicopters.

With nearly $10 billion in U.S. Department of Defense contracts, Arizona is ranked sixth in military contract awards. Key VTOL programs and components manufactured in Arizona include the AH-64D Apache Longbow, Boeing’s rotorcraft phantom works, engine and propulsion systems, aircraft seating, safety products, cockpit and avionic systems, missile navigation and guidance systems.

Forum 66 is the longest running and most established rotorcraft event in the industry. Unlike other trade shows, the AHS Forum provides access to an elite technical community responsible for directing the engineering and manufacturing processes of the global rotorcraft industry. Exhibitors will interface with top program decision-makers on the show floor during unopposed exhibit hall viewing hours as well as at exhibit hall luncheons, receptions and industry-wide sessions such as the US Army and US Navy / Marine Corps military program manger briefings.
