Claire-LinerBauhaus Luftfahrt presented the first-ever model of a 300-seat, ultra-efficient aircraft called the "Claire-Liner" at the 2008 Berlin Air Show.Fuel can be saved by reconfiguring the wings. A box-wing combines two different wing shapes. The overall shape has extremely good aerodynamic characteristics and also makes the aircraft very stable.EADS is one of the founding members of Bauhaus Luftfahrt, which is an internationally oriented think tank that develops sustainable, innovative solutions for future air transportation.

HyLinerThe air transportation of tomorrow will have to live up to the highest economical and ecological standards. HyLiner is a hybrid aircraft that will meet these expectations. "Hybrid” in this case refers to a combination of individual technologies into an ideal whole. The mission (short- and long takeoff), flight dynamics, propulsion, steering and materials all belong to the hybrid concept. The goal – based on a collection of potential ideas and technologies – is the development of concepts, designs and eventually flying models for an ultra-quiet, low-emission mid-range aircraft with extremely short take-off capabilities.This Hyliner concept has a boxwing configuration and embedded engines. A box-wing combines two different wing shapes. The overall shape has extremely good aerodynamic characteristics and also makes the aircraft very stable. which ensures better stability in flight.EADS is one of the founding members of Bauhaus Luftfahrt, which is an internationally oriented think tank that develops sustainable, innovative solutions for future air transportation.

To save fuel, this version of the Hyliner ESTOL would fly at approx. mach 0.75. To increase lift, various possibilities are being investigated. Options include thrust vectoring technology, applied to engines with a high bypass ratio and a lift fan system integrated in the wings.EADS is one of the founding members of Bauhaus Luftfahrt, which is an internationally oriented think tank that develops sustainable, innovative solutions for future air transportation.

It is a multi-modal transportation concept able lift wagons with passengers or goods off a train, transport them over a short distance by air and put them down in another place either onto rails, or onto a ship or a road vehicle. Passengers could so travel by various means of transportation without actually having to leave their seats.
