    Cranfield 29 May

    Sweden comes to Cranfield on 29th of May!

    The visit to Cranfield University, in collaboration with the Swedish company Saab, aims to highlight innovations in Aeronautics. It is a themed event that centers around defence and security and involves students of the University, lecturers, as well as the entire Defence department from the Embassy of Sweden.

    The day will conclude with a visit to Martin Baker, for the better part of a century the world’s leading manufacturer of ejection seats. Their unprecedented life-saving capabilities will be tested by the Ambassador, by strapping him into an ejection seat. Pictures to follow!
