European Commission Directorate General Research Aeronautics Herbert von Bose - EUROPEAN COMMISSION - DG RTD - Directorate H.3 GROWTH - Aeronautics 20 In summary... ò For aeronautics, the technical areas covered will be similar to the one covered by FP5. ò FP 6 proposes a number of new instruments, amongst which the Integrated Projects. They should replace the Technical Platforms, offering more autonomy and flexibility. ò Traditional RTD projects (Critical Technologies) and CRAFT projects will remain (with some adaptations). ò SMEs, as usually in aeronautics, should not concentrate on CRAFT projects, but should set up specific targeted project and participate to integrated projects.
