“We are now closing another quarter with record sales and are looking forward to a summer with increased air traffic. Completed airline tests and a pipeline of additional airlines give us good opportunities for continued growth during the year. In particular, in connection with the recent serious incidents, we are now seeing an increased interest in our new turbulence avoidance products. Here, our services can really help to increase flight safety and avoid costly damage to aircraft and passengers," said CEO, David Rytter.
The full report for the second quarter will be published as planned in the interim report on August 23rd, 2024.
