What to Expect from the Autonomous Aircraft Market

For many years now we’ve been hearing about the innovations and advances empowering us to move toward pilotless planes with major aviation and industrial players already pledging their support and investment. In 2020, FedEx announced that it was working with Reliable Robotics to use small autonomous aircraft to transport cargo. In the same year, Airbus debuted its autonomous aircraft software by demonstrating its Airbus A350-1000 XWB can take off and land without any human input.

BizAv’s Summer 2022

Despite commercial airline activity making its global post-pandemic comeback, it’s been a summer of high demand and traffic for business jets. This comes after 2021 saw private jet usage soar to its highest level on record. WingX recorded 3.3 million business jet take-offs in 2021, the most for a single year and 7% more than the previous high in 2019. So business jet travel is booming, and no one involved in the industry will be surprised.
A New Level Of Connectivity For Business Jets

A New Level of Connectivity for Business Jets

Passengers' needs are always evolving with the times, and in order to keep them satisfied, business aviation has to keep up. Millennials are accounting for increasing numbers of business jet users that will expect to use inflight broadband at the same rate as they would use WIFI while at home or in the office. And with such rapid technological advances in consumer electronics, streaming and video gaming are commonplace, and even watching ultra-high definition 8K video and virtual reality (VR) interactions are also quickly becoming the norm. These advances demand increasingly powerful inflight broadband—a new level of connectivity for business jets.
Producing Enough SAF To Meet The Projected Demand

Producing Enough SAF to Meet the Projected Demand

It’s almost a year since International Air Transport Association (IATA) member airlines committed to net-zero emissions by 2050. The airlines' commitment wasn’t only because of customer demands, but also due to the demands of investors. The journey to net-zero will be facilitated by a combination of advanced technology, carbon offsetting, new infrastructure, operational efficiencies, and of course, sustainable aviation fuels (SAF). But it’s not only the airline operators’ policies that will make this possible or not.
Industry And Government Efforts To Deliver Zero Emission Flight

Industry and Government Efforts to Deliver Zero Emission Flight

Affecting change is all about working together—not just within an industry but with external partners. There can be little doubt that a solid industrial strategy is a key to producing real change in how an industry does business and the impact of its practices. It’s vital for the whole government to work in partnership with industry in order to lay out the long-term direction needed to instill new best practices and maintain confidence for ongoing investment.
The Rise Of Green Airports

The Rise of Green Airports

Mention sustainable aviation and most people’s thoughts will go directly to jet fuel and Co2 emissions. However, there are other aspects to the industry’s efforts to become greener and eco-friendly… carbon off-setting being adopted, more sustainable materials being used in manufacturing and design, and advancing technology enabling greater efficiency. In recent times we are also seeing the rise of the green airport… a smart, more streamlined infrastructure that is aimed at helping the environment and the user.   
How Wellbeing Can Elevate The Aviation Workplace

How Wellbeing Can Elevate the Aviation Workplace

I may be just a little biased, but to me, aviation is the most exciting and dynamic industry on the planet! On the one hand, it combines the most sophisticated engineering and technological advances, and on the other, it harnesses the power of abundant creativity and imagination… A truly inspiring industry to be part of. And often, (it must be said) quite a stressful one. A small price to pay for the dynamism and excitement, however, stress is toxic for our health and wellbeing, as well as for organizations’ productivity and performance.
The Evolution Of Charter Operations

The Evolution of Charter Operations

In the final UAS Forward Discussion at EBACE, we put the focus on charter operations, the relationship between charter brokers and operators, and how this dynamic will continue to evolve in the future. We were delighted to welcome some of the industry’s outstanding charter experts representing both brokers and large and small operators. They were Julie Black of Hunt and Palmer, Bernhard Fragner of Globe Air, Fadi Al Samad of Elit'Avia, and Alex Durand of SaxonAir. We were also happy to welcome the European Business Aviation Association’s (EBAA’s) Paul Walsh as moderator. As well as giving a great insight into the current state of the charter market globally, the panel discussion also explored whether smaller operators could compete with the rise of the mega operator.
