The trade show on the shores of Lake Constance is also a must-attend event for more than 600 journalists who come to Friedrichshafen to find out about the latest trends and developments in general aviation. The products and services presented by more than 700 exhibitors from 40 countries include over 320 aircraft and cover the entire range from gliders, ultralight and light aircraft to helicopters and even midsize business jets. The latest avionics trends, innovative propulsion technologies and pilot training options are also covered by the trade show. Not only is AERO Friedrichshafen the most important marketing and sales platform for manufacturers, it has also developed into an indispensable meeting place for OEMs from the supply chain and engineering sectors. If general aviation is your business, the show is a must-attend event! We look forward to welcoming you as an exhibitor to AERO Friedrichshafen in 2019.
