Once but a dream, flying has now become a cornerstone of our economy and the ticket to our mobility. We are able to fly higher, faster and further than ever. Now it’s time to fly greener, more safely and more competitively. To achieve these goals, the EU is providing over €2 billion in funding for aeronautics research between 2007 and 2013. Cross-border cooperation and the joining of forces from industry and research centres will help yield innovative results. The projects presented in this video provide a glimpse of aeronautics in the future.
