First-time exhibitor Farnborough Aerospace Consortium is using the show to launch a CD-ROM version of its directory of members' products.
Formed two years ago, the Consortium, an umbrella of more than 550 member companies, sees Farnborough '98 as an opportunity to expand its membership as well as demonstrating its new product, says communications consultant Mark Mason.
