SKYWAYS

Skyways is moving aviation from an industry powered by fossil fuel extraction to an industry powered by biofuels and the recycling of carbon dioxide... The SKYWAYS SKY-511 is being designed at Brooklands, the historic home of the UK aerospace industry where the pioneers of flight designed the Vickers Wellington and Hawker Hurricane, then later the VC-10 and Viscount amongst many others. In the 1960's key components for Concorde were designed and manufactured at Brooklands... Fixed-Flight Path Angle descent and Intelligent Approach Assistance are the future of air traffic management systems. Such systems will enable aircraft to fly direct to their landing flight path rather than having to circle the airport, which unecessarily burns billions of gallons of jet fuel per year. SKYWAYS will take the lead in designing and implementing these systems that can provide fuel savings of up to 10% versus the phased and staggered approaches of present-day aircraft, as well as helping to avoid..
