Air Charter Service investing in research
Air Charter Service has announced its latest investment in the future of sustainable aviation. Chris Leach, the company’s chairman: “Internally, we have been a certified carbon neutral company since 2007, but we realised several years ago that this was not enough, so we are working to a three phase strategy to reduce and ultimately eliminate our industry’s environmental impact.[…]"
And he continues: “Our latest investment is now to help find the next generation of aeronautical engineers, who will be working on the aircraft in the future. It therefore gives me great pleasure to announce that we have awarded our inaugural PhD scholarship to Muram Abbadi (pictured), who will be conducting a study of morphing wings. She will be focusing on an innovative form of aircraft wing design that changes shape, taking inspiration from nature by mimicking feathered movement.” (cj)
