Advisory Council for Aviation Research and innovation in Europe 12

13 WG 1 Main Conclusions Main Conclusions Much additional Research, Innovation and Political push needed to make Flightpath 2050 intermodality and performance goals a reality. 4hr door to door goal is the opportunity for new innovative services and aviation growth in an intermodal transport environment. Aviation is in a key position to take a leading role in realising the integrated transport system. Big technological as well as societal challenges need to be solved to enable future aviation services, infrastructure and system performance. Advisory Council for Aviation Research and innovation in Europe 13

14 Maintaining and Extending Industrial Leadership - The whole European aviation industry is strongly competitive - Europe maintains leading edge design, manufacturing and system integration capabilities and jobs - Certification and upgrade processes are fast and cost effective

15 WG 2 Competitiveness Continuous and focused investment European private & public investment Long innovation cycles - Large scale investment Efficient & focussed programmes Positive legal & fiscal incentives Regulations and Standards Level playing field with RoW Impose requirements Ambitious target setting Close coop. with industry/ operators Harmonise civil/military Efficient Certification Certification process efficient, low cost and globally adopted EASA leading certification body Virtual environments/simulation: accepted means of compliance Efficient modular certification Research and Innovation Lifecycle Sustain the full research chain: Full scope of the vehicle and its operation in the aviation system, Support strategic resources Creation of excellence clusters for innovation & CPD Support multi-sector exchanges Technology, Demonstration and Flight test Breakthrough technologies for aircraft and aviation system High level EU demonstrators X-Planes, Demo-airport Research facilities and capabilities at National and European level Efficient Development & Manufacturing Processes Engage total supply chain Transcontinental development processes Improved manufacturing capability and assembly process MRO/operational requirements secured early Advisory Council for Aviation Research and innovation in Europe

16 WG2 Main Conclusions Policy: The EU should ensure a level playing field with the rest of the world for its (civil and military) aviation industries through the right policies, certification processes, funding and regulations, in close cooperation with the main stakeholders, so that its aviation industry remains competitive and jobs are created. Technology: The EU aviation industry needs to identify and implement novel technologies which enable advanced design, manufacturing, operation, support and end of life processes, with simulation as a prominent means of certification. Breakthrough product technologies need to result from the efforts spent in a constantly fed chain of research and innovation activities which are performed by an EU wide cooperation of all aviation actors. Innovation: There is a clear need for Europe to plan, organize and fund a series of vehicles as flying demonstrations of innovation. These X-planes would integrate a range of novel technologies in a single experimental platform to secure the competitive position of European industry. We must find new ways to leverage resources and skills between academia, research centres and industry in order to quickly and efficiently bring these breakthrough innovations to the marketplace for the benefit of the whole aviation sector, from OEMs Advisory to Council MROs. for Aviation Research and innovation in Europe 16

25 WG5 Main Conclusions Aviation research needs an even more coordinated approach to fulfill FP2050 goals. Research is the key element for education, innovation, knowledge, and infrastructure. European aviation research always has the complete system in mind. Strategic aviation infrastructure needs to be of highest quality and efficiency, producing results for products, research and education, organized in a network for the best usability of all stakeholders, serving societal needs and industrial leadership. Education is organized in Europe in a network of stakeholders. Aviation is attracting students and workforce of all kind. European graduation and lifelong learning are the standard, based on modern teaching tools as well as cutting edge infrastructure. General Assembly asked to: Endorse the need to launch and establish a roadmap for strategic infrastructure including new models e.g. private, public partnerships Advisory Council for for Aviation Research and and innovation in in Europe 25

26 GA - Key Discussion Points and Endorsements WG Discussion Point WG1 The 4hr door-to-door goal offers an opportunity for aviation in an intermodal transport environment. General Assembly asked to... Endorse the need for the aviation sector to take a leading role in developing an integrated transport system. WG2 Aviation as a sector requires regulatory stimulus and technological excellence to maintain competitiveness and sustain future growth and create jobs. In line with European ambition and goals, to reinforce European effort to ensure that international regulatory approach is coherent. WG3 The scale of the environmental goals are challenging and the solutions needed are not fully known today. New processes, systems and approaches are needed to address this. Advisory Council for Aviation Research and innovation in Europe Endorse the proposal for large-scale technology demonstration. Endorse that design priorities and operational practices should be increased towards lower environment impact. Build new processes and breakthrough approaches into future research requirements. 26

27 GA - Key Discussion Points and Endorsements WG Discussion Point WG3 WG3 WG4 WG5 The importance of alternative fuels to aviation warrants a specific EU mandate to create a level playing field with land transport. Further understanding of climate science and non-co2 effects at an international level is imperative. Regulatory system must evolve to ensure high adaptability and responsiveness to accommodate emerging risks and facilitate the introduction of innovative products and services. There is a need for a world-class strategic infrastructure for the aviation sector to be available throughout Europe. General Assembly asked to... Note that ACARE goals cannot be achieved without this and therefore consider options for securing the necessary political support. Further research is needed to better understand the impact of aviation on the atmosphere. Support the better integration of aviation safety and security regulatory responsibility and governance, creating synergies, efficiencies and resolving potentially conflicting measures. Endorse the need to launch and establish a roadmap for strategic infrastructure including new models e.g. private, public partnerships.
