The home of aviation

Hamburg Aviation is the aviation industry cluster for the Metropolitan Region of Hamburg – one of the world’s most important locations in the civil aviation industry. In total, more than 40,000 highly qualified specialists are working on the future of aviation. Their core competencies cover an aircraft's complete life cycle, from the design, manufacture and fitting out, to the global system of air transportation, maintenance, repair and overhaul, and finally to recycling. Put together, this makes Hamburg the world's third-biggest site in the civil aviation industry.
