You probably don't. Aerospace is horribly conservative and slow, both in the work itself and in office culture. Imagine spending an entire week checking every calculation in a 50 page technical report. It must be correct, and it has to be that way.

I mean, I hope people would want to do that. Otherwise the people doing it are the ones who don't.
Although I agree aerospace is slow, it's not that bad. Yes there is a lot of verification, paperwork, etc. however, safety is number one so it's understandable. Also if you get into early TRL projects, you don't even have to deal with such restrictions.
