One of the three unleaded fuel candidates being developed for use across the range of piston-engine aircraft is advancing through an FAA testing regime.
Two people were killed when their aircraft crashed two miles south of the Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh Wisconsin, where the EAA AirVenture event is held.
Wisk Aero says it is giving consideration toward the fledgling aftermarket for its fully automated electric aircraft, although some of the MRO opportunity will be constrained by its intentional design limiting the aircraft’s number of systems.
Bombardier has bolstered its MRO presence in Europe by adding a new line station at Farnborough Airport to service its Learjet, Challenger and Global business jets.
Jekta has selected ZeroAvia to develop a hydrogen-electric, fuel-cell-powered version of its PHA-ZE 100 amphibian, originally designed to rely on batteries.
Eve Air Mobility, Embraer’s advanced air mobility spinoff, has rolled out the first of six Eve prototypes to support the eVTOL program through developmental flight testing.
EMBRAER delivered 27 executive jets (20 Phenoms/seven Praetors) in 2Q24 vs 30 (19 Phenoms/11 Praetors) in 2Q23; and 45 (31 Phenoms/14 Praetors) in 1H24 vs 38 (25 Phenoms/13 Praetors) in 1H23. It ended quarter with $4.6b backlog.
The manufacturer of Russia’s Superjet 100 regional jet has issued instructions to the type’s operators on the replacement of angle of attack (AOA) sensors.
He had an extraordinary ability to identify a problem, conceive a way to rectify or avoid it, and assemble the necessary tools, people and capital to execute.
TEXTRON AVIATION earned $195m on $1.5b revenues in 2Q24 vs $171m on $1.4b in 2Q24; it delivered 42 jets and 44 turboprops in 2Q23 vs 44 jets and 37 turboprops a year ago and now has $7.5b backlog. BELL revenues rose 13.3%.
