Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is cooperating with the 13th EASN International Conference on "Innovation in Aviation and Space for Opening New Horizons", which will be held by the EASN Association and the University of Salerno, and will take place in Salerno, Italy from the 5th until the 8th of September 2023.
Like its predecessors, the 13th EASN International Conference will include several Plenary Talks by distinguished personalities of the European Aviation and Space sectors from the academia, industry, research community, and policymakers. The event will also give the opportunity to scientists and researchers from all over the world to present their recent achievements in a series of thematic sessions, organized by internationally recognized scientists.
Furthermore, the conference is expected to be a major European Dissemination and Exploitation event of Aviation and Space related research, as it will provide a forum for presenting their activities and achieved goals, discussing current trends and future needs of aviation and space-related research, and trying to identify possible synergies with each other. Additionally, several policy development projects will also find the floor to present the strategic priorities of the European aviation sector.
Authors of outstanding papers related to the topic of aviation and space are invited to submit extended versions of their work to this Special Issue for publication.
We are looking forward to welcoming you to Salerno and the 2023 EASN International Conference and invite submissions of extended conference papers to this Special Issue. We hope that the conference will be another successful, in-person gathering of the EASN Association.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Aerospace is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs).
