I don&#8217;t know about Aussie law but US law says keep a record of your design with dates, log books, pictures, sketches, etc. to verify you were first with the idea. Once you&#8217;ve applied for a patent, contact the big airline companies, Boeing, Lockheed Martin in the US, Airbus in Europe and tell them you have an idea and try to set up a meeting. You&#8217;re going to have to be persistent and remember to protect yourself with confidentiality agreements and the like while you&#8217;re shopping your idea around. It won&#8217;t easy no matter how good your idea is but be persistent. <\/p>\n<p>Your other route is to go throught the military and shop the idea that way. That may be the more tortured path though.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Know better?
