The Society of Experimental Test Pilots (SETP) is an international organization dedicated to improving air safety by supporting the education and professional development of test pilots. The society promotes sound aeronautical design and development techniques and encourages the exchange of ideas among its members.[1] SETP was initially formed in 1955 by a small group of US civilian test pilots at a café near Edwards Air Force Base and as of 2022 has grown to include over 2,400 members from over thirty countries.[2] The society hosts symposia and workshops in the United States, Canada, Europe, and India.[3] Member success is recognized and celebrated by yearly awards in areas including flight test performance, technical management, and flight test safety.[4] The society publishes a record of its activities in Cockpit magazine.[5]
