The FAA has issued a first-of-its-kind authorisation to XB-1 for supersonic test flights, planned for later this year in the Black Mountain Supersonic Corridor in Mojave, CA.
Pilots benefit from an additional front door for the co-pilot and external access to the baggage compartment. Windows have also been redesigned and made larger to improve visibility.
Production methods were designed with the Savannah-based research and development team and include advanced automation, 3D model designs, and robotic and bonding techniques.
SiCore cells are designed to ensure maximum power and reliability for mission-critical operations. AIBOT's aiEVTOL drone, designed for remotely piloted heavy-lift air cargo, could be introduced by the end of 2024.
AirX intends to trial both the single-engine and the dual-engine AirFish 8 prototypes, which can seat up to eight passengers.
The Payload Range Increase Program focused on increasing the payload capacity and range, while retaining the PC-24's aerodynamic characteristics and flight handling, so that meant no major changes to the external shape.
The Wingcopter 198 will be the first foreign company's drone to be accepted for type certification, and approval would allow for commercial BVLOS operations in populated areas.
There now are parallel integration steps for the Kodiak 100 and 900, involving wing and horizontal stabiliser mating; flight controls and rigging; engine and avionics; first flight; interior outfitting, and customer delivery.

Lilium began assembly of the first Lilium Jet at its manufacturing and testing facilities near Munich at the end of 2023. The first piloted flight test of the Lilium Jet is targeted to occur in late 2024.
The flight test programme will include engine performance and handling checks at various speeds and altitudes, inflight relights, tests of the nacelle's anti-icing system and fan vibration tests at various altitudes.
The company generated approximately $32 billion in adjusted revenue in 2023, with 70% generated by services and the strong economics of the engine aftermarket.
The HFC produces hydrogen gas on demand. It is fuelled with liquid hydrogen which rapidly adsorbs to nano-material filling an insulated container. Gaseous hydrogen is then released by a controlled thermal input system.
