Achieving the goals of climate neutrality by reducing the impact of aviation is a task that requires a carefully drafted roadmap for the development of disruptive technologies and concepts of operations. With particular attention to the emissions of pollutants and noise in airport local airport areas, a synergetic approach is needed that combines together interventions on the aircraft side and on the airport side. This calls for coordinated efforts in developing technologies that not only provide benefits during cruise conditions but also are capable of improving the local air quality and noise in airport areas where the impact of pollutants and annoyance to local communities has been demonstrated to be quite large in terms of morbidity and mortality. INDIGO is a collaborative project between academia, research centres and airports that aims at identifying the margins of improvement in airport local air quality and noise resulting from the introduction of a new non-conventional mid-range aircraft featuring distributed propulsion based on hybrid electric/sustainable and conventional fuel powertrain and large aspect-ratio wings capable to fly quietly and in zero-to-low-emission mode (i.e. electric and SAF) at low altitudes near airports and resort to conventional aviation fuel only when required, e.g. at higher altitudes or to recharge batteries during cruise. INDIGO will explore a new paradigm for the next-generation of silent and clean mid-range aircraft and for the way such a new aircraft will allow transforming the operations “at and near” airports. It will introduce improved methods for the analysis of future aviation environmental impact that, under the filter of uncertainty, will be able to account for non-conventional aircraft performance and future airport scenarios.

通过减少航空的影响来实现气候中立的目标，这是一项任务，需要精心草拟的路线图来开发破坏性的技术和操作概念。特别要注意机场当地机场地区污染物和噪音的排放，需要采用一种协同的方法，将飞机一侧和机场一侧的干预措施结合在一起。这需要在开发技术方面进行协调的努力，这些技术不仅在巡航条件下提供福利，而且还可以改善机场地区的当地空气质量和噪音，在机场地区，污染物和当地社区意外的影响在发病率和死亡率方面已经很大。 Indigo是学术界，研究中心和机场之间的一个协作项目，旨在确定由于引入新的非惯性中距离飞机而导致的机场当地空气质量和噪音的改善边缘，该飞机具有基于混合电气/可持续/可持续/可持续性和常规燃料的电动机和大型速度的零件和Zero seafly and Seafly and Seafly and Seafly and Seafly and Seafly and Seafly-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-imem-i.仅在需要时，机场附近的高度才诉诸常规航空燃料，例如在较高的高度或在巡航过程中充电电池。 Indigo将探索一个新的范式，用于下一代寂静，干净的中距离飞机，以这样的新飞机将允许“在和附近”机场进行操作。它将引入改进的方法，以分析未来的航空环境影响，在不确定性的过滤器下，它将能够说明非惯例飞机的性能和未来的机场场景。
