#82 HRC Interview during JEC 2023 about the flying car: Monocoques in AAM (English)

25.05.2023 14 min Staffel 5 Episode 38

Zusammenfassung & Show Notes

Monocoque technology also in Advanced Air Mobility? Why should this be considered at all?

Join todays podcast episode during JEC 2023. My today's guest is Erich Fries of the HRC Group. In part 1 of 2 he explains why the flying car has monocoque structures.

Before the "flying car" became a reality and be displayed on JEC Group's flagship event I needed to know from Erich what obstacles they had to overcome.

Imagine a car manufacturer who partners with an aviation company and realises AAM. Two worlds, two school of thoughts. One is more concerned about mass production, while the other has to program avionics and keep this device safely airborne.

Learn in this episode, how both successfully converged their paradigms.

Stay tuned for part 2, when we talk about sustainability, because HRC set-up a production process that enables use of remaining materials that otherwise would land in a bin. How they achieved this will be revealed in part 2 soon.
