MY EXPERTISE
One engineering approach.
Several fields of application.
Support tailored to your project: development, integration, testing, consultancy and technical training.
01
Systems & flight test
Requirements, integration and testing considered together from the outset.
- Electric and hydrogen propulsion
- Autonomous, optionally piloted and MALE platforms
- Flight testing, instrumentation and composites
02
Electrical engineering
Electrical systems, staff competence and responsibilities aligned with the task.
- Condition monitoring and electrical machines
- High-voltage training and staff qualification
- Electrical organisation and interim vEFK
03
Nautical engineering
Onboard systems developed with aerospace methods and practical seamanship.
- Networking, automation and communication
- Safety-critical functions and system availability
- Composite structures, integration and testing
MY APPROACH
Systems thinking.
Practical engineering.
Twenty years of relevant experience in research and development connect detailed engineering with an understanding of the complete system. Clear interfaces, coordinated technical contributions and practical integration work keep design decisions tied to how a system will be built, operated and tested.

TEST & MEASUREMENT
Measurement campaigns
& scientific expeditions.
A successful measurement campaign connects the scientific question with a workable test programme. Support covers measurement concepts, instrumentation, technical logistics, field operations and evaluation — across flight testing, scientific experiments and expeditions.
01
Plan
Objectives, test points, measurement uncertainty and evaluation strategy.
02
Prepare
Instrumentation, synchronisation, equipment interfaces and technical logistics.
03
Execute & evaluate
Measurement coordination, data-quality checks and documented results.

CAPABILITIES
In-house engineering capabilities.
Electrical circuit design
Circuit design for electrical systems, sensors and measurement tasks – from requirements through integration and testing.
Rapid prototyping
In-house multi-filament 3D printing for functional prototypes, enclosures and integration aids. Materials and execution matched to the intended use.
Simulation & optimisation
In-house numerical optimisation, CFD and FEA to compare design variants, assess loads and flows, and support engineering decisions.
MY NETWORK
The right expertise
for the whole task.
An established professional network extends the expertise and facilities available for your project. Where additional specialists or test facilities are needed, suitable contacts can be identified and their contributions coordinated with the engineering task.
Scope, responsibilities and availability are agreed with you at the outset.
