This is an essential phase to detail strategy based on shared objectives and designs

A consolidated demonstration path per technology stream is necessary to support this phase From design to individual testing to large demonstrators

Initial Phase: Detailing objectives and

converging strategy

Aerodynamic

Noise Shielding

Flutter

Handling qualities

Acoustic Fatigue

Innovative Aft Bodies

Launch Review

Building a good team of partners takes time

Setting up the worksharing, securing budget

Getting the appropriate number of partners

From challenging global specification to reality

Compromise between desirable objective and technical and budget constrains

Necessary iteration on OEM1 specification to steer the design in enough details

Demonstrations performed successfully in the framework of CleanSky 1, with some delays, despite a number of technical and programmatic difficulties, thanks to the strong involvement of all parties

Comprehensive testing with TRL 5 in CleanSky 1, makes first deployments possible

Further optimization and extension of applicability of part of these technologies is one of the objectives of CleanSky 2
