Welcome to FUN KIDS SCIENCE WEEKLY - REACH FOR THE SKY SPECIAL – the podcast that explores the future of aviation – from the design and sustainability of future planes to the people who keep them flying and make sure our experience special.

One of those people is Helen Leadbetter who works for the Civil Aviation Authority as the Zero Emissions Flight & Hydrogen Challenge Lead.  I met up with her so she could tell me more about the work she and the CAA do to prepare for a greener future. Here’s Helen Leadbetter, from the Civil Aviation Authority.

And Amy and Zac dive into the sustainable side of aviation, both for when aircraft are in service and after they retire. From smart new materials and greener fuels to recycling and reusing.
