Highlight exhibits on the 250 m² stand include components for the wing tip folding system for the Boeing 777X aircraft program and a nose landing gear for the AW189 helicopter, which can be extended and retracted on the stand.
In addition, visitors will have the opportunity to discover innovations in research and development, such as the “Skin Heat Exchanger”, a heat exchanger that is an integral part of the aircraft structure. Further highlights include various weight-optimized components produced using the 3D printing process.
