NASA is grateful for his service and the example he’s set for the next generation of engineers and flight test professionals.”</p> <p style="margin: 0;"><br></p> <p style="margin: 0;">After earning a bachelor’s degree in electrical and computer engineering from Clarkson University, Flick joined NASA, working on the <a href="https://qlwo8rfbb.cc.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001hbcuXr62N7in3YJlw8LHn24XRrRYy3IYRBMYav4pmgc3dQa8Zh-8upQbyrBpf8988IOXerk_aDzY1ESoznEMeplTuoymjd-CUEAxsyz8WPvPO-qng7Pv5BNfo-MXMx3tav8-yYx5UcevAr1xwCnDPm3nJ-tNpATEL9MyGzWOB1YLJ_F9DRR77Q==&c=Ckm3vZTTID4IkhuBL1mWvCalJhTQ31VS6r8StkdXXdLnjMLqvbNbZw==&ch=0InfMLyzvDWYaT_JTlmYGzxSAxvhNzpoX2P7VsZUmgQHf8NVgDtJfA==" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: #0b3d91; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">F/A-18 High Alpha Research Vehicle</a> project. In 1988, he moved to the Operations Engineering branch, where he played a lead role in developing experimental systems including thrust vectoring control, emergency electrical and hydraulic systems, and the spin recovery parachute system. He also served as mission controller for about 100 HARV research flights.</p> <p style="margin: 0;"><br></p> <p style="margin: 0;">He later earned a master’s degree in engineering management from Rochester Institute of Technology, which supported his progression through increasingly responsible leadership roles. Before his appointment as center director on Dec. 5, 2022, following a period as acting director, Flick held leadership positions spanning engineering and operations, including Flight Systems branch chief, acting associate director for Flight Operations, center chief engineer (where he chaired the Airworthiness and Flight Safety Review Board), deputy director and director for Research and Engineering, and deputy center director.</p> <p style="margin: 0;"><br></p> <p style="margin: 0;">Flick’s leadership and technical expertise shaped flight research at NASA. His work advanced aeronautics and pushed the boundaries of aviation technology. As NASA continues to lead innovations in sustainable aviation and supersonic flight, his contributions will remain an integral part of that legacy.</p> <p style="margin: 0;"><br></p> <p style="margin: 0;">Troy Asher will serve as acting center director, effective Friday, March 20.
