Unique globally, the Elbe Aircraft Works in Dresden stands alone in aviation manufacturing.

The Elbe Aircraft Works, a unique global location with an assembly line for converting cargo aircraft, is looking to expand its operations. With the need for more employees, Jordi Boto, a person of interest in this context, has emphasised the importance of Dresden being open-minded and tolerant.

Currently, the Elbe Aircraft Works employs around 2200 people and is planning to hire more. This expansion could potentially lead to an increase in skilled employees and customers. The works are seeking to hire international specialists, a move that could further boost their operations.

The conversion process at the Elbe Aircraft Works is both sustainable and cost-effective. By recycling many parts, the process is five to six times cheaper than buying a new aircraft. After conversion, a large aircraft can operate for another 30 years.

The hiring of more employees and the attraction of international specialists could be facilitated by reducing bureaucratic hurdles. The Elbe Aircraft Works has expressed a wish for politics to take steps towards this.

High-profile visitors, including Martin Dulig and Carsten Schneider as Eastern Commissioner, recently visited the Elbe Aircraft Works. However, the specific details of this visit, such as where it took place, are not currently available.

Jordi Boto's comments suggest that Dresden's image could use some improvement to attract more skilled employees and customers. He believes that Dresden must be open and welcoming to potential workers and clients. If Dresden can achieve this, the Elbe Aircraft Works could potentially attract more skilled employees and customers, further boosting its operations.
