Airbus flies using Upper Austrian high-tech

27.09.2017

Airbus is relying on high-tech “Made in Austria” for its new “Airspace” cabin in the A320 family of aircraft.

The aviation specialist FACC based in Upper Austria will supply overhead stowage compartments and ceiling panels to equip the Airbus cabins. Series production is planned to begin at the end of 2018.

The new, larger stowage bins will be deployed by the Airbus A320 starting in the year 2019. The order level at present of the Airbus A320 is about 5,000 aircraft. Theoretically, older planes may also be upgraded with the XL bins. Currently more than 7,300 A320 aircraft are in operation worldwide.

“In addition to a high level of comfort and sufficient space, the most important aspects of a passenger cabin are low weight, convenient handling, low operating costs and high reliability”, said Robert Machtlinger, CEO of FACC AG.

The new research allowance in Germany – in competition with the Austrian research tax credit?

Companies carrying out research and development in Austria have the possibility to apply for research funding, namely the so-called research tax credit. In an international comparison, the Austrian research tax credit is a recipe for success and is designed to showcase and enhance the attractiveness of Austria as a research location. The successive increase in the research tax credit from the original level of three percent in 2002 to 14 percent at present has made a massive contribution to this success.
