Components for the wing tip folding system for the Boeing 777X aircraft program and a nose landing gear for the AW189 helicopter, which is extended and retracted on the stand, are presented to the general public for the first time. 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.
