James W. Gregory is professor and chair of the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at The Ohio State University (OSU). He received his Bachelor of Aerospace Engineering from Georgia Tech in 1999 and his PhD in Aeronautics and Astronautics from Purdue University in 2005. He has been a faculty member at OSU since 2008 and served as Director of OSU's Aerospace Research Center from 2017 to 2020. In 2017, he led a team of research staff and students to set FAI/NAA‐sanctioned world records for speed and distance for an autonomous drone. He teaches classes at OSU on Flight Test Engineering and Introduction to Aerospace Engineering. Prof. Gregory also recorded a series of video lectures on the Science of Flight, produced by the Great Courses. He is an instrument‐rated commercial pilot and holds a remote pilot certificate.

Tianshu Liu is a professor in Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Western Michigan University (WMU). He received a PhD in Aeronautics and Astronautics from Purdue University in 1996. He was a research scientist at NASA Langley Research Center from 1999 to 2004. His research focuses on experimental aerodynamics and fluid mechanics, particularly on global measurement techniques for various physical quantities such as pressure, temperature, heat flux, skin friction, velocity, aeroelastic deformation, and aerodynamic force. He teaches classes in aerodynamics and flight testing at WMU.
