Total 133 organizations, 2600 people with 30+ companies with AS9100 cert.

In order to increase the number of component manufacturers HAIF launched the Aerospace SupplierInitiative Programme in December 2004. Mainly automotive and ICT component manufacturers wereinvited to the programme.

In March 2006 HAIF initiated and organized the establishment of the Hungarian AerospaceCluster. Now it has 25 membersIn 2008/09 HAIF launced an AS9100 Quality Mgmt program for 30+ SMEs, mainly membersof HAC

2. Introducing the Hungarian Aerospace Cluster

2.1. 2.1. CreationCreation of of thethe HungarianHungarian AerospaceAerospace ClusterCluster

3. Hungarian Aerospace Technology Platform – cont.

Objectives:

To provide organizational framework for Aerospace research in HungaryTo close the gap between the EU and Hungary in Aerospace technologiesTo help the best research organizations to diversify into AerospaceTo devise a national strategy for aerospace researchTo develop and test small aerospace vehiclesTo launch integrated research projectsTo participate in space missions, FP7 and Clean Sky research programmesTo establish new R&D relationships with other countries

Rosetta incorporates several Hungarian ICT components…

The DABAS onboard system can also be adapted to any sport aircraft

• The system developed by SGF Ltd. measures and evaluatesloads during flight

• After landing data can be downloaded into a PC forevaluation

• Numerical evaluation and graphical display is performed bythe software developed by SGF Ltd.

• The system can also be used forhealth monitoring purposes
