A big thank you to our sponsors and supporters!
Without donors, supporters and sponsors, whether idealistic or material, our work could not be realized. Your trust is both an obligation and an incentive for us to make the best possible use of your support and our commitment to research.
Above all, we are indebted to the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT):
- Through the Institute of Fluid Mechanics (ISTM), the KIT provides us with the “infrastructure” that enables us to pursue our project work. We would also like to thank the employees of the ISTM workshop, who continuously supported us in the production of components.
- Many thanks go to the Institute of Thermal Turbomachinery (ITS), in particular Prof. Dr.-Ing. Dr-Ing. E.h. Dr. h.c.mult. Sigmar Wittig for his extensive support of the turbine project.
Another irreplaceable pillar of our work is the financial support from the KSB Foundation, which provides significant support for our research projects year after year.
We would also like to thank the company LXNAV d.o.o. The cooperation with LXNAV has existed since the beginning of 2020. As a precision avionics company, they were able to equip three of our aircraft with modern flight navigation systems.
The support we received from the “Alte Adler”, the association of German aviation pioneers, was a special honor.
However, the numerous donations from private individuals and companies who generously support us with donations in kind and money are also indispensable. In this regard, special mention must be made of Professor Dr. rer. nat. Heinz Kronmüller, who showed us his appreciation in an impressive way. All of them are guarantors for the successful continuation of the research activities of the Akademische Fliegergruppe Karlsruhe for over 90 years.
If you would also like to support us, you will find all the necessary information in the imprint.
