Global aviation is entering a phase where innovation, integration and trust must move together.
At the 2026 FAA-EASA International Safety Conference, regulators reaffirmed the importance of cooperation on safety oversight, operational data sharing, proactive Safety Management Systems and harmonised certification pathways for advanced aviation technologies.
This is a key signal for research projects like DEMOQUAS: future propulsion concepts and digital engineering tools will require robust, transparent evidence that can support regulatory confidence across borders.
DEMOQUAS contributes by developing uncertainty quantification methods that improve how models, simulations and data are interpreted for safer design, manufacturing and operations.
