Niedersachsen Aviation Day 2019
On September 17th, the host AutoGyro hosted the Niedersachsen Aviation Day 2019 at the Hildesheim airfield. The Niedersachsen Aviation Day has quickly developed into an important networking platform for the general aviation community in Niedersachsen. At the 3rd edition of the event hosted by AutoGyro in Hildesheim, the program of lectures, the accompanying exhibition and the opportunities to fly along once again illustrated the innovative power and diversity in this segment in Niedersachsen.

The highlights of this year's Niedersachsen Aviation Day included, for example, the keynote speeches on digitization in production and in air traffic as well as on the opportunities and requirements of the new European drone regulations with a subsequent panel discussion on current and future UAV applications. During the panel discussion, the State Secretary for Digitization in the Niedersachsen Ministry of Economics, Labour, Transport and Digitization, Mr. Stefan Muhle, confirmed his intention to develop Niedersachsen into a leading location for civil applications of drones together with the players in the industry on the basis of the existing location competencies.

More than 20 companies from Niedersachsen, research institutions and locations took part in the accompanying exhibition and presented themselves and their innovative products and services related to general aviation. 

Opportunities to fly with aircraft "made in Niedersachsen" and tours of AutoGyro production completed the program.
