Professor Bin Cheng Honoured by RAeS

Monday, December 15th, 2014

The Royal Aeronautical Society has been honouring outstanding achievers in the global aerospace industry since 1909, when Wilbur and Orville Wright received the first Gold Medal. Awards have since been given to individuals and teams who have made exceptional contributions to aerospace, for outstanding achievements and contributions, technical innovation, leadership, long and valued service, and for work that advances the field.

It is the most prestigious and long-standing award in global aerospace honouring achievement, innovation and excellence.

This year our Honorary President Professor Bin Cheng received the Honorary Fellowship, which is the highest distinction awarded by the RAeS for outstanding contributions to the aerospace profession.

Everyone at the Institute would like to extend to Professor Bin Cheng their heartiest congratulations on adding this honour to the many well-deserved recognitions of his outstanding contributions to international law.

“Professor Cheng is admitted to Honorary Fellowship in recognition of his impact, world-class leadership and lasting contributions to the development of air law and space law and the inspiration he has provided to others in these sectors of the art and science of aeronautics and astronautics.

He is Emeritus Professor of Air and Space Law at University College London and Honorary President of the London Institute of Space Policy and Law. He is a world authority on international air and space law and played a central role in the adoption of the 1999 Montreal Convention, updating the 1929 Warsaw Convention on International Air Transport.”

He joined Mr Colin Smith of Rolls-Royce and M Jean-Paul Herteman of the Safran Group in being so honoured, at a ceremony on 11 December 2014.

RAeS has a list of previous recipients of awards and honours.
