The Airfields Environment Trust (AET) was founded in 1978 to advance knowledge and understanding of aviation's environmental and amenity impacts, through research and education.
The Trust, which is the only UK charity operating exclusively in this field, conducts and sponsors research with the aim of producing innovative solutions to reduce aviation's environmental effects.
We recognise that only collaboration between all of those involved can produce effective and workable strategies. The AET works constructively with airlines, airports, regulatory bodies, academic specialists, manufacturers and other environmental bodies, to promote a sustainable future for aviation.
The AET has an international reputation as a source of unbiased data and receives numerous requests for research and information from the general public, statutory bodies and industry each year.
