The think-tank’s report, Flightpath2050, presents a strategy based on the systematicwidening of measures in the area of air transport ini -tially proposed in a European Commission whitepaperpublished on March 28, 2011. Dr. Michael Kerkloh,Flughafen München GmbH’s president <strong>and</strong> CEO,represented European airports in the think-tank <strong>and</strong>helped shape the long-term strategy unveiled at Aerodaysin Madrid on March 30, 2011.Designed to promote sustainable growth in aviationat the EU level, the strategy focuses on strengtheningthe competitiveness of Europe’s air transportindustry, on achieving significant further reductionsin air traffic’s emissions, <strong>and</strong> on satisfying the generalneed for mobility – in part through the optimization ofnetworking between transport modes.The Advisory Council for Aviation Research in Europe(ACARE) is currently conducting a detailed reviewof the objectives outlined in Flightpath 2050. In aninitial step, five working groups with a total of morethan 300 specialists are preparing guidelines on re -search <strong>and</strong> innovation projects to be implementedthrough to the year 2050. The guidelines are slatedfor completion in July 2012 <strong>and</strong> are to be presented atthe ILA Berlin Air Show in September 2012. FlughafenMünchen GmbH is actively involved in this process,both as a member of ACARE’s governing body, theGeneral Assembly, <strong>and</strong> as the organization headingone of the five working groups.The company is particularly keen to encourage greater) intermodality by creating more attractive, customer-friendlierlinks between aviation <strong>and</strong> other modesof transport, to further reduce air traffic’s environmentalfootprint (particularly for communities located closeto airports), <strong>and</strong> to optimize airport facilities, processes<strong>and</strong> aviation procedures.The Flightpath 2050 report is available on the ) Internet.)
