Visitors of Aerodays 2011 in Madrid showed a great interest in the Stand of REStARTS during the 3 days conference.

To illustrate the REStARTS project two young students, 17th year old, have demonstrate all the basics of Aeronautic the showing experiments on a scale-down, wind tunnel.

 A famous visitor of the stand, the European Commissioner Maire Geoghegan-Quinn has been very impressed when the two young girls started to explain and to demonstrate the lift and the drag to her.
