Zusammenfassung & Show Notes

What if the future of aviation isn’t just about speed—but about sustainability, personalization, and the art of flying in style? The sky is no longer the limit—it’s the beginning.

What a day at AERO Friedrichshafen—Europe’s premier general aviation show, now boldly stepping into the business aviation spotlight with the new AERO BASH format.

It’s my first time here, and I had the privilege of exploring the future of private aviation with two incredible minds: Norbert Werle, founder of the JET-Circle, and Oliwia Górnicka, pilot and luxury experience curator at Luxury Living Ibiza.

🚀 Innovation That Inspires
From the Gulfstream Aerospace G600—a jet fit for intercontinental visionaries—to the Pilatus Aircraft Ltd PC-12 Pro with its groundbreaking autoland feature, and the ultra-comfortable Bombardier 3500, we explored the full spectrum of aircraft redefining private travel. Norbert shared how AERO is now filling the void left by EBACE, becoming the new hub for OEMs and aviation entrepreneurs across Europe.

🌱 Sustainability Takes Flight
With over 130 companies on the Sustainable Aviation Trail, AERO 2025 is not just about luxury—it’s about responsibility. Electric, hybrid, and hydrogen propulsion systems are no longer concepts—they’re here, and they’re flying.

💎 Luxury You Can Feel
Oliwia reminded us that luxury isn’t just seen—it’s felt. From the texture of the leather to the ease of walking in heels through a Diamond aircraft, she curates experiences that begin long before takeoff and continue well after landing. Whether it’s a tailored jet journey from Madrid to Dubai or a seamless arrival in Ibiza with yachts, chefs, and VIP tables waiting—this is aviation as lifestyle.

📽️ My Personal Takeaway
This felt like more than an airshow—it was a Business Jet Forum. I was truly impressed by the range of aircraft—from the Falcon and Citation to the G600—and the sheer presence of OEMs. Germany leads Europe with over 450 business jets, and Dassault Aviation stood out with its strong corporate culture and 35 Falcon jets in operation only in Germany. Hats off to them!
