About Lutte

A leading aviation expert with research interests in the areas of aviation safety policy, pilot supply, and outreach, recruitment, and retention of women in aviation, Lutte was among 30 industry professionals and experts named last year by then-U.S. Secretary of Transportation Elaine L.
