Aircraft with lift: How has flying with Lufthansa changed?

How do you launch an entirely new generation of aircraft – and with
it, an entire airline? From the rattling propeller planes to the
legendary Boeing 707, the Airbus A320 and the mighty A380, every
aircraft has written a chapter in Lufthansa’s story. In this
episode, Carl Sigel, long-standing CTO and Head of Fleet, and pilot
Nils Lewe, until recently Executive Assistant to the CTO, share how
technological leaps have revolutionised flying – and the strategy
behind choosing new jets. Historian Dr Manfred Grieger takes us
back to the daring early days of aviation. How were new
technologies received? Why might the A380 have been ahead of its
time? And what defines which aircraft will shape the future? Tune
in and discover how flying has been reinvented again and again.
