Airbus A310 ZERO-G
The research platform parabolic flights has been an integral part of all research in zero gravity for decades. The utilisation concept of the Swiss Parabolic Flights - shared use by universities, companies and private individuals - is unique in the whole of Europe to date and offers a significant competitive advantage for Switzerland: The parabolic flight campaigns provide science and industry with cost-effective access to research and R&D projects in microgravity. Two parabolic flight campaigns with a total of 12 research projects have already been successfully carried out with the A310 ZERO-G from Duebendorf Airport. In June 2018, the 3rd Swiss Parabolic Flight Campaign will once again be launched into zero gravity.
