While modern air travel has advanced significantly since its inception, existing aircraft lavatories still pose significant mobility issues and anxiety for PRMs due to limitation in space and lack of user-friendly designs, deterring them from using on-board lavatories with ease or flying altogether. This, coupled with an ageing world’s population, necessitates an efficient solution that delivers value for both passengers and airline operators. Using modern and human-centric interior design principles, ST Engineering has created ACCESS – the world’s first expandable lavatory to promote inclusive air travel. Developed in partnership with Acumen, a multi-award-winning product and transport design consultancy, ACCESS empowers airlines and operators to revolutionise the flying experience of Passengers with Reduced Mobility (PRMs) without sacrificing valuable seating capacity.
Almost half of all global manned aircraft opportunities over the next decade will arise from Asia, new data from Aviation Week Intelligence Network has revealed.
A virtual integrated aircraft approach helps accelerate aircraft systems engineering. By implementing a model-based design method, you master the aircraft systems integration complexity, from component to full system.
In this webinar, Aviation Week Network editors Steve Trimble, Tony Osborne & Brian Everstine discussed the concepts emerging from government and industry leading to a new future of autonomous aircraft.
Learn how thermostatic technology can improve reliability, precision and overall performance in Avionics, Space, and Defense applications due to its ability to function without a power source, compact size, and low SWaP.
This ebook explores five of the most meaningful ways a verification and certification digital thread, woven from requirements through verification and onto certification, impacts typical A&D programs for the better.
Defense Editor Steve Trimble looks at how a reliable defense against a hypersonic glide vehicle might look. The Missile Defense Agency is already working on adapting existing interceptors such as the SM-6 and SM-3 for the mission, but we now know that's just the beginning. We will explore the weapons, sensors and command and control systems that will be required in the long-term to defeat one of the fastest and elusive weapons yet invented.
