Aircraft with lift: How has flying with Lufthansa changed?
Manage episode 509197852 series 3660246
How do you launch an entirely new generation of aircraft – and with it, an entire airline? From the rattling propeller planes to the legendary Boeing 707, the Airbus A320 and the mighty A380, every aircraft has written a chapter in Lufthansa’s story. In this episode, Carl Sigel, long-standing CTO and Head of Fleet, and pilot Nils Lewe, until recently Executive Assistant to the CTO, share how technological leaps have revolutionised flying – and the strategy behind choosing new jets. Historian Dr Manfred Grieger takes us back to the daring early days of aviation. How were new technologies received? Why might the A380 have been ahead of its time? And what defines which aircraft will shape the future? Tune in and discover how flying has been reinvented again and again.
