Munich-Based Aerospace Companies

German cities of Stuttgart and Munich both are homes to aerospace facilities, if the former is home to the research and academia; it is the Munich based aerospace companies with their base in and around Munich city.

The Munich hotel I stay in is close to one of Europe’s biggest aerospace company EADS, also the worlds premier aerospace player also happens to be Munich based aerospace company.

It is from here that EAD tests and develops products for various purposes.
There are more than thirty Munich based aerospace companies involved in developing parts for the Ariane rocket are located all around Munich city.

It was the combined effort of MAN, MTU and Kayser-Threde with their high-end technology made it possible for the MarsExpress mission to take photographs of water on mars for the very first time in history.

These Munich based aerospace companies also helped provide the data that helped scientist study the rings surrounding Saturn in greater depth than before.

Not far from Hotel Munich is located the facilities of another of the Munich based aerospace companies Galileo industries. It was established in the Munich region to support iNav-Sat and Eurely consortiums in ramping up the satellite-based navigation system currently being built by these companies.

The system being built by Galileo Industries is made up of a huge network of thirty satellites. They will be placed at 24000 kilometers above the earth’s surface where they will positioned in three circular orbits.

Munich is not only home to aerospace companies, it also boasts to be the home to Chair of Space Travel Technology at the Technical University of Munich.

It was here that new standards were set on data transmission on the BayernSat project, thus ensuring its huge success. The German aerospace center (DLR) also is Munich based with its network of eight institutions with more than one thousand employees.

All this Munich based aerospace companies are ably supported by the application center for satellite navigation and Hotel München.

This organization makes sure that more and more aerospace companies keep coming to Munich by supporting the relocation and founding of companies involved in developing products and services in satellite navigation.

These and a host of other Munich based aerospace companies are playing a major role in realizing critical aerospace missions.

From the window of my Munich hotel room I can see the airbus taking flight, it was here in Munich that major systems going into the airbus was developed and designed by a no of these aerospace companies.

Munich based aerospace companies all together for a huge consortium of critical knowledge mass needed for the growth of the aerospace industry.

It is no wonder that Munich’s aerospace industry is not only the biggest in Germany but holds the no one position amongst all the European nations.

The epicentre of aerospace industry, Munich based aerospace companies generate a revenues of a whopping EUR 6 billion, and all together these companies employ the best of technical, engineering ,computer and mathematical people numbering no less than 26,500 people.

Truly Munich is the centre of the aerospace industry in Europe.
