The Future flight challenge for Innovate UK, part of UK Research and Innovation. It would put up to £500,000 towards initiatives to fill skills shortfalls in the aviation sector. The “Future Flight” challenge will revolutionise how we connect people, carry commodities, and offer services by utilising new classes of electric, hydrogen, and autonomous air vehicles. It will encourage firms to share their knowledge and resources, hastening the introduction of these vehicles into service.
The objective of this competition is to develop and supply instructional materials and course content that will promote knowledge, abilities, and training in the field of future flight. This will increase public awareness of developing markets for future flights and close significant skills and training gaps in the UK workforce.
