AIRA - Aircraft Icing Research Alliance

AIRA - Aircraft Icing Research Goals

  • Develop and maintain a integrated aircraft icing research strategic plan that balances short-term and long-term research needs
  • Implement an integrated aircraft icing research strategic plan through research collaboration among the AIRA members
  • Strengthen and foster long-term aircraft icing research expertise
  • Exchange appropriate technical and scientific information
  • Encourage the development of critical aircraft icing technologies
  • Provide a framework for collaboration between AIRA members

The underlying theme of AIRA is to prioritize research activities and research collaborations of all participants as a means of most efficiently improving the safety of aircraft operating in icing conditions.
