NASA’s The Quiet Crew | Brian Griffin

In this episode of The Quiet Crew, you’ll meet Brian Griffin, the NASA flight test lead for phase one of the Quesst mission. His role on the mission is the planning, coordination, and execution of all ground and flight testing of the X-59 aircraft. He is part of the crew on a mission to transform aviation as NASA and communities work together to verify that the X-59’s quiet, supersonic design can turn a sonic boom into a sonic thump. This new technology, along with a potential change in regulations, will allow airliners to fly faster over land, cutting passenger travel time in half without disturbing people on the ground.
