The PVL system is inherently self-ballasting, providing zero-static lift on the ground, enhancing safety, and eliminating the cost and complexity of conventional helium airships' typical ground operations.
Production has begun with the installation of assembly tooling and the initiation of various system production lines, marking a significant milestone along BETA's path to delivering the ALIA CTOL and the ALIA VTOL.
Boeing's X-66A program is focused on developing the Transonic Truss-Braced Wing (TTBW) concept, which could enable significant improvements in fuel efficiency and reduced emissions for next gen single-aisle aircraft.
With a significant portion of the exterior building constructed, the Overture Superfactory continues to take shape and remains on track for completion in 2024.
Hydrogen burns far hotter and more rapidly than kerosene, so new nozzles were needed to control the flame position using a new system that progressively mixes air with the hydrogen to manage the fuel's reactivity.
The two companies will work to integrate high voltage electrical systems on an experimental aircraft, and target flight testing to begin in 2024.
The PioneerLab's flight campaign has already begun at the manufacturer's largest German site in Donauwörth, with a rotor strike alerting system being the first techno-brick tested on board the demonstrator.
Horizon Aircraft is confident its fan-in-wing technology can support this new and larger platform and testing results have provided confidence that it can potentially scale to an even larger aircraft.
The company is planning for new aircraft production to increase fourfold by 2027 with strong economic performance and increased revenue projected.
Compared to a piston aeroengine or turbine delivering power in a similar range, the XBS is reckoned to be an order of magnitude lighter, considerably smaller and virtually maintenance free.
Construction of the scaled Ohio facility is expected to start in 2024 and it is expected to come online in 2025. Joby plans to use existing nearby buildings to begin near-term operations.
The Large Area Display will serve as a pivotal tool for pilots, consolidating critical flight data, sensor inputs and tactical information into a single, easily accessible interface.
The fuselage is planned for delivery to Lilium facilities in Wessling, Germany in the fourth quarter 2023, prior to planned start of assembly of the first Lilium Jet by year end.
Plettenberg's high torque, electric motor will drive the tail propeller on Aero 2. It is light weight and thermally efficient, and modified to provide the system redundancy required for continued safe flight of the aircraft.
The facility upgrades include energy-saving LED lighting and high-efficiency systems. Construction on the expansion is expected to be completed mid-year 2024.
