Airbus chief technology officer on mission to explore flight's future

BEIJING - French novelist Jules Verne might have imagined the future in his science fiction, but a modern fan is doing a lot more than imagining.

Paul Eremenko, 39, is chief technology officer of Airbus and he has a mission to explore the future. He admits to being "probably one of the luckiest men in the world".

"There could not be a more exciting time for aerospace than today as there are many probabilities for the future," Eremenko said.
