Commenting on the membership, Melanie Form, member of the board and managing director, says: “We are very pleased to welcome Deutsche Aircraft GmbH on board of aireg. Deutsche Aircraft and its technology roadmap are a journey, rather than a ‘next big thing’ destination.

“Deutsche Aircraft believes that aviation has a key role to play in fighting climate change. Thus, we have set ambitious goals and are adopting an integrated approach to embed more sustainable practices at all levels of lifecycle of our aircraft. Developing the D328ecoTM platform is the first stepping stone in our journey towards sustainability. Our vision is to work collaboratively with the whole industry to achieve sustainable, affordable and effective aviation. The aireg e.V. membership is part of this wider strategy.
