About

Dr. Jim Angus is a forward-thinking researcher whose work sits at the critical intersection of aviation operations and environmental sustainability. His primary research focus is on developing the infrastructure and operational frameworks needed to achieve truly sustainable aviation, moving beyond incremental improvements to systemic change. His most notable contribution, outlined in his highly cited 2024 paper "The ‘hangar of the future’ for sustainable aviation," provides a visionary blueprint for how ground-based facilities must evolve to support next-generation aircraft and alternative fuels. This work, which has already garnered 5 citations in its first year, is shaping industry and academic conversations around the "triple bottom line"—balancing economic performance with social and environmental responsibility. Dr. Angus’s research is particularly impactful because it addresses a critical gap: while much attention is paid to aircraft propulsion, he demonstrates that the supporting infrastructure is equally vital for decarbonization. His work is essential reading for students and professionals in aviation management, sustainable engineering, and transport policy, offering a practical roadmap for an industry in transformation.
