Panelists from industry, the research sphere and the European Commission all expressed excitement and optimism about major investments and advances in new materials, sustainable fuels, new engine technology and air traffic management. Each will play a role in delivering net-zero or carbon-neutral aviation by 2050, they said.
The discussion highlighted the importance of ensuring advances in aircraft and engine design are matched by investments in infrastructure on the ground and coherent global regulations.
