Dr. Dave Poling joined the Boeing Company in 1985 and has been with the Rotorcraft Division for 21 years. His current assignment is Boeing Program Manager for the Bell-Boeing Joint Heavy Lift (JHL) Quad Tilt Rotor (QTR) Concept Design and Analysis study program in the Advanced Rotorcraft Systems Group at Boeing in Philadelphia.

Dr. Poling’s previous assignments at Boeing have been in Aerodynamics and Flight Technology that have included work in advanced rotor blade design and new business development for advanced rotorcraft programs. He has also served as the Technical Program Manager for the National Rotorcraft Technology Center (NRTC) Rotorcraft Industry Technology Association (RITA) and Center for Rotorcraft Innovation (CRI) and was previously Program Manager for the Navy sponsored Reconfigurable Rotor Blade (RRB) program.

During his early years at Boeing, Poling played key roles in support of V-22 and CH-47 Programs and the design of the Bell-Boeing 609. Dave has also participated in numerous Wind Tunnel Tests of advanced model-scale rotor systems and small-scale tilt-rotor testing. He has 18 publications on numerous technical journal articles and papers on subjects ranging from Helicopter blade-vortex interaction to rotor wake and rotor downwash studies.

Dr. Poling received a B.S. and M.S. in Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics, West Virginia University, 1978 and 1980 and a Ph.D. Engineering Science and Mechanics, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, 1985.
