Innovations, technology and efficiency shaping the aerospace environment

A major goal for the aviation community is reducing fuel consumption. Nowadays we can see so much effort to design a modern aircrafts that offer weight and low fuel burn savings. This study could help to understand the long way during the production of the next generation aircraft such as Airbus A350 which shows us many advantages in fuel economy. In the first part of this study the author describes the history of fuel efficiency from its beginning. The wing design and aircraft’s engines are introduced in the second part of the thesis. The importance of ways to reduce aircraft’s weights and fuel economy is the main goal for Airbus and this issue is the irreplaceable part of the last chapter of this study. It shows a great visions and practical experience in improving aircraft performance and reducing maintenance expenses. The composites materials and new technologies help to achieve significant weight and fuel reduction and experiments are taking place today to show that this is the right step ahead. It is too early to say which of many researching ways will lead to viable solutions, but the air transport industry is committed to support advanced technological innovations. Anyway, technologies are constantly being deployed and researched by the aviation industry to continuously increase performance
