Zusammenfassung

The Advisory Council for Aviation Research and Innovation in Europe (ACARE) Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda intends maximum intra-European travel times of four hours door-to-door for 90% of passengers in 2050. However, todays commercial air travel is affected by several time-consuming influences which results not only in an unintended extension of the actual travel time well beyond single flight time but also increases the hassles for the passengers along the journey. In order to meet this target, Bauhaus Luftfahrt e.V. has developed an integrated transport solution during its internal Group Design Project in collaboration with Glasgow School of Arts. This transport concept consists of an inner-city airport combined with a short takeoff and landing (STOL) capable, short-range aircraft, providing capacity for up to 60 passengers. Scrum, an agile development methodology, was utilized to realize the development of both - the airport and aircraft concepts - from an initial idea within a highly constrained time scope of overall three months. This paper presents the development of the inner-city airport concept, which overbuilds city space that is currently occupied by railway tracks and features full integration into the existing rail and air traffic systems. With 16 hours of daily operations, the inner-city airport was designed for up to 10.5 million annual passengers. The building consists of four levels including the runway level on top, the apron level, located directly below the runway, a public terminal and a rail level. The roof-top runway with a length of 640 meters - combined with an aircraft elevator system and a distributed security check concept - allows for shortened overall travel times. [...]
