Jonas Kristiansen Nøland
Abstract
Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic has been a painful reminder of the vulnerability of the aerospace industry. It is currently facing challenges with costs, expensive fuels, and carbon emissions. In recovering the industry, regaining its competitiveness, and addressing future climate goals, an unprecedented revolution is needed. The aviation sector is at a crossroads, and several international agencies have put forth radical goals for its future. Sectors that were hardest hit by COVID-19 require particular attention and must be prioritized.
