The rise in computer technology has been married with old design concepts to create computer aided drafting, or CAD, programs. These programs are used in a variety of fields but there is no industry in which it is more important than the aerospace industry. CAD designers in the aerospace industry are vital to the successful creation of innovative airplane designs that mix functionality with form. Designers who utilized CAD in the aerospace industry are responsible for the development of aerospace project plans utilizing two and three-dimensional models that represent new projects.

The large capital investments of corporations, airlines, and other organizations in aerospace technology mean that it has to be impeccably designed and provide high performance. This means that designers, engineers, and others need to maintain a high level of excellence over years of project work which can be frustrating and exhausting. Indeed, the high pressure of the aerospace industry can wear down the resolve of aerospace professionals who are in the industry over a long period. However, the
