SWISS <\/strong>on <\/strong>friday became the first airline in the world to deploy the innovative AeroSHARK technology on its passenger services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The transparent AeroSHARK film which has been applied to its aircraft\u2019s fuselage and engines replicates the hydrodynamic skin of a shark to reduce aerodynamic drag and, as a result, lower both inflight fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. SWISS\u2019s first scheduled flight to use the new technology took off from Zurich for Miami friday at 13:39.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AeroSHARK is a special film which has been jointly developed by Lufthansa Technik and chemicals and coatings manufacturer BASF. The film features tiny 50-micrometre riblets that reduce aerodynamic drag during flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur adoption of AeroSHARK is an excellent example of how we can use innovative technologies to make air travel more sustainable,\u201d says SWISS CEO Dieter Vranckx. \u201cOur aircraft fleet is already one of the most advanced and most carbon-efficient in Europe. Thanks to AeroSHARK, we can enhance these credentials even further in a field where every saving counts. We are proud to be the first passenger airline in the world to adopt this new technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
