Last two years were eventful for the aerospace industry due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and many companies are still emerging from the chaos left by the crisis. The crisis, however, has accelerated technological changes that address and solve the issues left in a post- COVID world. From the emergence of predictive maintenance to improvement in cloud technologies, the aviation industry is committed to growing and reaching new heights despite the hurdles they face. The aviation industry is expected to reach $8.21 billion by 2030 at a CAGR of 11.40 percent.
The primary objective of airports and planes is to keep their passengers safe with socially distant technology to minimize contact. Central to these changes is the need for passengers to have an easy and stress-free experience without repeatedly presenting physical travel documents. Digital ID wallets present an opportunity to eliminate physical paperwork and frequent unnecessary contact by integrating all relevant passenger information into a privacy-first digital profile. Advanced flight biometrics also allow passengers to enjoy in-flight entertainment with the BYOD model, where passengers can pair their device with the flight’s system and navigate the options through their device.
To put the spotlight on such key developments in the industry, Aerospace and Defense Review illustrates how the aviation space is leveraging real-time data and predictive analytics to grow the company. This edition also features thought leadership articles from subject matter experts. Some of the exclusive insights are authored by Paul Harding, Director, IT at Air Transport Services Group (ATSG); John W. Dietrich, President and Chief Executive Officer at Atlas Air Worldwide; and Michael Simon, Ph.D., MBA, VP at CAES Advanced Technology and Engineering.
