Environmentally Compatible Air Transport System

Objective

The Network of Excellence, ECATS, will be a durable and long lasting means of cooperation and communication within Europe, made up of a number of leading Research Establishments and Universities who have expertise in the field of aeronautics and the envir onment. The overall goals of ECATS are to create a European virtual institute for research of environmental compatible air transport; to develop and maintain durable means for cooperation and communication within Europe and to strengthen Europes excellen ce and its role and influence in the international community. The Joint Research Programme will take into account engine technology, alternative fuels, aviations impact on local air quality, operational aspects of aviation, and the development of scenari os. Lasting integration will be achieved by joint management and working structures, joint decision-making processes and will be supported through specific integration activities as a common web-based information and communication system, common educatio n, training and exchange programmes, coordinated use of facilities and equipment, dissemination and joint management of innovation. The excellence and commitment of the ECATS partners, many of whom are already linked through their participation in AERONE T, will guarantee an effective and durable integration. Support by community funding will be applied for a period of 5 years.
