Less than one week until eVTOL Insights’ free virtual networking event, with Dufour Aerospace and AUTOFLUG as speakers

There’s less than one week until our next vir­tu­al net­work­ing event, which is com­plete­ly free to attend and will fea­ture speak­ers from elec­tric avi­a­tion com­pa­ny Dufour Aero­space and AUTOFLUG.

Tak­ing place on Fri­day, Novem­ber 26th from 4pm‑5.30pm GMT, we’re excit­ed to be joined by Sascha Hard­eg­ger, Chief Com­mer­cial Offi­cer at Dufour Aero­space and Michael Paschold, Key Account Man­ag­er for Cab­in Solu­tions at AUTOFLUG.

As Chief Com­mer­cial Offi­cer at Dufour, Sascha’s work builds on his many years of expe­ri­ence in heli­copter emer­gency med­ical ser­vices (HEMS) and Search and Res­cue at Swiss Air-Res­cue Rega.

At Rega, he led in var­i­ous capac­i­ties includ­ing heli­copter oper­a­tions (12 bases and oper­a­tions cen­tre), com­mu­ni­ca­tions and inno­va­tion. Notably, he launched Rega’s drone pro­gramme. He is an avi­a­tion enthu­si­ast with time spent fly­ing planes, glid­ers, paraglid­ers, RC-mod­els, and drones.

Dufour Aero­space has a strong pedi­gree in a real-world appli­ca­tion of eVTOL and is work­ing towards a tilt-wing air­craft, the Aero3, which com­bines the best fea­tures of heli­copters and air­planes. The team is also build­ing an unmanned plat­form, called the Aero2, for which it has flown pro­to­types.

While AUTOFLUG has been a lead­ing provider of prod­ucts and ser­vices that focus on the res­cue and safe­ty of peo­ple since the ear­ly days of avi­a­tion. Michael is the company’s expert on its FLYWEIGHT mod­el of avi­a­tion seat­ing and will be shar­ing more devel­op­ments.

As a glob­al­ly recog­nised sup­pli­er and ser­vice part­ner for the inter­na­tion­al avi­a­tion indus­try and defense tech­nol­o­gy, it devel­ops, man­u­fac­tures and main­tains a wide range of tex­tile, mechan­i­cal and elec­tron­ic com­po­nents and sys­tems.

AUTOFLUG has decades of expe­ri­ence and know-how in the areas of res­cue and safe­ty, ergonom­ics, tex­tiles, mechan­ics, pre­ci­sion mechan­ics, elec­tron­ics, soft­ware, and mea­sure­ment and con­trol tech­nol­o­gy

Known as Final Fri­days – our vir­tu­al net­work­ing events have been a great way for indus­try pro­fes­sion­als to con­nect at the end of a work­ing week. Click here to reserve your place.
