Dutch media attention for more legroom in aircraft and Flying-V
On Friday 18 October, IDE professor Peter Vink was invited to the Dutch TV programme ‘De Wereld Draait Door’. He talked about a better design of the aircraft cabin and more legroom, developed for the Flying-V. Peter R. de Vries, guest during the programme, recently expressed his dissatisfaction about too little legroom on the plane. He was impressed: "I think Mr Vink deserves the Nobel Prize." IDE Flying-V researcher Thomas Rotte was also on TV. In EditieNL he talked about more legroom and sleeping places on the plane.
The reason for this attention is the model of the interior of the new aircraft design Flying-V, which can be seen from 19 to 27 October at the Dutch Design Week. Visitors can experience the future of flying with Flying-V.
