Oberpfaffenhofen Bavarias Minister of Economic Affairs Hubert Aiwanger emphasized the revival of the aircraft building at the traditional Oberpfaffenhofen location when the newly developed emission -low regional plane DO328ECO.
Aiwanger: With the Do328eco, aircraft construction returns to Oberpfaffenhofen. With the low -emission aircraft, the German Aircraft also makes an important contribution to the sustainable aviation. This is not only a sign of the companys innovative strength, but also an important step to strengthen the Bavarian aviation industry. New jobs and other companies are drawn to the strengthening of regional business I am confident.
The Do328eco has been developed at the former Dornier location in Oberpfaffenhofen. The two turboprop engines are approved for normal, sustainable (SAF) and hydrogen-based power-to-liquid (PTL) fuels, which should significantly lower CO2 emissions. The aircraft consumes 40 percent less fuel than other modern regional turboprops and thus also expects 40 percent fewer CO2 emissions. After the development of the DO328ECO in Bavaria, the aircraft in Leipzig will be produced. The delivery start is planned in 2027.
Aiwanger: The headquarters for research and development of German Aircraft will remain in Bavaria. With around 550 companies and around 38,000 employees, the Free State is the strongest aerospace region in Germany. On the basis of this strong tradition, we will shape the industrial future of our country together.
