For several years, a research team at the Honeywell's branch in Brno has been working on this topic, addressing it as part of its contribution to the European Clean Sky II initiative. Technology should increase flight safety in the future and also allow new ways of organizing air transport.

The first part of the unique project, which will gather data from volunteers primarily from professional and interested pilots, took place at the beginning of February.
