The federal aviation research programme
Research and development projects in the field of aviation can be submitted under this funding programme.
The Project Management Agency for Aviation Research (PT-LF) is the central partner for science, industry and ministries in the field of aeronautics in Germany.
As an organisational unit of the German Aerospace Center, PT-LF supports the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK) in the implementation of the federal government's national civil aviation research programme (LuFo Klima). In addition, the federal states of Bavaria, Brandenburg, Bremen, Hamburg and Lower Saxony supplement the federal programme with their own funding programmes.
The mission of the PT-LF is to advance aviation research in Germany and develop innovative solutions for the future of aviation. We work closely with research institutions, companies and ministries to strengthen the aviation industry in the long term.
