Electric propulsion for commercial aircraft, once viable, could force massive changes on MRO providers.

For electric power to replace current engines on commercial aircraft, major improvements in battery technology will be needed.

Brazing technology plays a crucial role in manufacturing tough aerospace components resistant to corrosion and high temperatures, and in development of new engines for hypersonic flight.

From smart factory and MRO solutions to passenger experience and pilot training tools, here is some of the coolest new tech for the aerospace industry from CES 2019.

Software specialist looks for smarter ways for MROs to spend their training dollars.

Lab is working on additive metal production which is still in a mostly experimental stage for aircraft engines.

Norm Baker joined Airbus senior vice president of digital solutions about a year ago from GE Aviation Czech where he was president, and before that, president and CEO of Taleris, a joint venture between GE and Accenture. Baker, an A&P, commercial pilot and Six Sigma Black Belt, talks about how he quickly led Airbus’ digital solutions from developing products to developing capabilities—and its impact.
