In this video, you'll see the different types of engines and propulsion systems used for aircraft, my favorite ones: Turbojet ...
Jet engines are relatively simple in their basic design, but advancements in gas turbine engine technology have mostly done away with the cool-looking bucket-type reverse thrust systems. These thrust ...
The Airbus A350 and Rolls-Royce Trent XWB are a match made in aviation heaven.
In 1925, the Wasp was a leap forward in aircraft power, reliability, and performance – one that rocketed the trajectory of aviation technology into the post-war era. Its nine-cylinder, air-cooled ...
A hybrid-electric jet engine may seem as absurd as a horse-drawn Zeppelin, but GE Aerospace is ground testing a new megawatt-class hybrid turbofan engine and its full powertrain that is powerful ...
Almost identical to the Pratt & Whitney PW814GA version powering Gulfstream’s G500/600, the PW812D variant is also due to enter service later this year on Dassault’s new Falcon 6X. Credit: Pratt & ...
The aviation marketplace is a weird place sometimes. Take the current shortage of jet engines, for example. A whole confluence of issues has caused a global engine crisis, resulting in Pratt & Whitney ...
The impact of airborne particulates on aircraft engines is a huge challenge for today’s aviation industry. When hail, ice, heavy rain, dust and sand, volcanic ash, lightning, or corrosive gases enter ...
