This Challenge is currently being judged. Stay tuned for the winners' announcement soon!

How will we fly in 2050?

Get ready for take-off into the exciting world of future air travel! Did you know that the U.S. has the world’s busiest and most complex airspace system?

In this Challenge, you’ll take flight as you explore how flying can be made safer, more efficient, and more predictable, whether that’s cleaner engines, quieter planes, or new ways to board and fly. Perhaps solar-powered aircraft, flying cars, electric air taxis, or a foldable seat system are in our future.

As you navigate the Challenge, you’ll come up with a product, business, or marketing campaign idea that addresses the question: How will we fly in 2050?

This Challenge ran from September 7 through Oct 11, 2026, but you can still complete this Challenge to earn KnoPro points, build your skills, and gain valuable experience. Want to see who won?
