The history of hot air balloons is deeply intertwined with the city of Paris, where dreams of flight first became a reality. This journey, rooted in the Enlightenment, began with the audacious experiments of the Montgolfier brothers in the 18th century and continues to inspire innovation today. The 2024 Paris Olympics will pay tribute to this legacy with a unique, flying Olympic Cauldron, symbolizing France’s enduring spirit of creativity and adventure.

Empowering Students Through Competitions and Technical Projects from AM Cairo
As students, we are always striving to learn and develop our skills. However, deciding whether to pursue an academic or industry career path can be challenging. One effective way to explore our interests is by participating in student competitions. Over the years, it has been proven that competitions help students become more innovative, develop critical thinking skills, gain more knowledge, and acquire hands-on experience that cannot be obtained solely through university coursework.

June 2024 Update from AS Dresden
All the German local groups of EUROAVIA pride themselves on their connection on a national level. We organise events together like visits to the manufacturing plant of Airbus in Hamburg or a trip to Hannover to visit the Bundeswehr and their fleet of A400M. All these activities take place once a year in a meetup in one of the towns in which EUROAVIA is represented in. Previous instalments of this tradition were hosted by Bremen (2021), Aachen (2022), Stuttgart (2023) and now for the 4th year in a row we were able to organise such a get-together. This year in – maybe the most beautiful German city – Dresden.
