S1E1: The Future of Aviation with Joris Melkert and Rinze Benedictus

In this first episode, we start with a question that feels simple but is anything but simple.How do we make aviation more sustainable, without stopping the system the world depends on?Because aviation isn’t something you rebuild overnight.It’s shaped by decades of engineering, infrastructure, and decisions.I’m joined by Joris Melkert, head of educational programme within faculty and Rinze Benedictus full professor with the department of Aerospace Structure and MaterialsTogether, we explore what it really takes to shift a system like aviation. Where innovation starts, where it slows down, and what needs to change to move forward.
