• Flight Path - From Father's Mission to sustainable Aviation
    Feb 28 2025

    We had the chance to talk to Alejandro Isaza Pizarro when we were filming our eGenius project from the University of Stuttgart – Institute of Aircraft Design (IFB). Alejandro grew up watching his Father do a honourable Job as an air ambulance pilot. Having grown up with that passion for aviation he has now found his own path in aerospace engineering. This interview was super spontaneous but is really an incredible interesting one at that.

    This is the last part of the eGenius Project by the the University of Stuttgart, whose Institute of Aircraft Design (IFB) carried out the aircraft modification and flight demonstration, and the University of Stuttgart's Institute of Flight Mechanics and Control (iFR) who developed the autopilot system!

    The e-Genius project is a part of SiFlA (Lu-Fo VI 1) "Silent and efficient glider-towing with high degree of automation" which is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Action.
