Airbus has gone public with a vision for new aircraft using hydrogen by the middle of the next decade.  But between now and then there are several steps.  Amanda Simpson, Vice President of Research & Technology at Airbus Americas, explains the steps from SAF (and its challenges) to hydrogen and the major impact this is going to have on aircraft design.
