Regent Craft has teamed with Rhode Island-based marine and aerospace composites specialist Moore Brothers to build a quarter-scale technology demonstrator for its seaglider, an electric wing-in-ground-effect vehicle for harbor-to-harbor overwater regional transportation.
The Airbus-sponsored Perlan 2 stratospheric glider will carry a Thales FlytLink satellite communications terminal when it returns to flight, enabling real-time data downloads from altitudes exceeding 90,000 ft.
Environmental regulations for aviation, such as mandates to use sustainable aviation fuel mandates and hydrogen technology certification, should be backed by an international framework set out by ICAO, a French parliamentary report says.
French startup Aura Aero has selected Electric Power Systems (EPS) to provide the battery system for its prototype Integral E electric-powered aerobatic training aircraft.
Plans to develop a maintenance/repair/overhaul (MRO) cluster at Twente Airport in the Netherlands are to be pared back in favor of exploring services related to testing new technologies and opening to business aviation flights as the site’s organizers plot a long-term pathway.
European LCC easyJet plans to support the development of hydrogen fuel-cell propulsion by the UK’s Cranfield Aerospace Solutions, providing its perspective on how the zero-emissions technology could integrate with future airline operations.
As Eve Urban Air Mobility prepares to go public as an independent entity, it is leaning heavily on its parent company Embraer and that includes access to its customer base.
Zero-emissions propulsion developer ZeroAvia has selected Paine Field as the location for a flight research center to support development of a hydrogen-electric powertrain for the De Havilland Canada Dash 8-400 regional turboprop.
A U.S. startup that plans to use airships to transport green hydrogen and air cargo has been selected for a business accelerator program run by Dassault Systemes.
Spanish testing specialist Applus has been funded to develop the means for cryogenic testing of hydrogen tanks for aircraft, in support of Airbus’ initiative to field a zero-emissions airliner by the mid-2030s.
The operator of an FAA-designated test site for unmanned aircraft systems said the agency has authorized it to fly drones beyond an operator’s vision within a 50-mi. airspace corridor in New York State.
Gogo Business Aviation says it remains on track to complete a 150-tower 5G air-to-ground network serving the contiguous U.S. by the second half of 2022.
Joby Aviation has formally added a second preproduction prototype to the test program for its S4 tiltprop electric vertical takeoff and landing air taxi.
Eaton, a mid-tier aerospace and defense supplier, has acquired Royal Power Solutions, a U.S.-based manufacturer of high-precision electrical connectivity components used in electric vehicle, energy management, industrial and mobility markets.
Michigan and Ontario officials have unveiled a cross-border research study of commercial drones to explore whether small unmanned aircraft can be flown beyond line of sight and used for just-in-time delivery, medical transport or other small-scale deployments.
The U.S. aviation and telecommunications industries have deescalated—at least temporarily—their clash over an issue that threatens to further disrupt airline operations during the COVID-19 pandemic: the potential of new 5G wireless networks interfering with aircraft electronics.
