The weaponization of #UAS is not just a conventional warfare issue. Criminal groups, militias & terrorists are adopting these techs as well: https://www.unmannedairspace.info/counter-uas-systems-and-policies/mexican-army-records-more-than-260-drone-attacks-by-drug-cartels-this-year/. Counter-UAS strategies shall consider these "non-traditional UAS users" to deter and neutralize attacks. ⚔️🕹🚁

The idea of stretching the 777X and A350 is not new... But can these extra-long #aircraft fit in? The newest widebody terminal facilities were planned and designed assuming a notional 80 m-long and -wide airliners at best. So far, no "New Large Aircraft" has crossed the edges of that imaginary containment box.

#DYK? There are ways to recycle #airliners. Value can be extracted from retired #aircraft. It's no longer just about the main parts & equipment!

I usually don't throw messages in bottles into the social media ocean... But let's try! I am looking for figures and curves on the #aerodynamic performance of airfoils used by early #aviation pioneers. In particular for the profile on the drawing below. Yes, the intrados is open. Yes, the shape isn't optimal. Anyway... Old books, research papers, etc. I'll take anything you can reference/recommend here! ✈️

Firefighting #rotorcraft shortfall prompts Bell’s 214ST reboot: https://aviationweek.com/aerospace/aircraft-propulsion/firefighting-rotorcraft-shortfall-prompts-bells-214st-reboot. Aerial #firefighting is an #aerospace niche but it is a critical one. Within that niche, #VTOL aircraft bring unique capabilities. They deliver water and retardant precisely, transport firefighters to remote areas, and perform aerial reconnaissance. VTOLs are essential assets for rapid response and effective wildfire management. 💪🚁 #aircraft #aviation #emergencymanagement #engineering #verticalflight

If General de Gaulle was still alive... 😉 #DYK? The eVTOL acronym stands for electric vertical takeoff and landing [#aircraft]. VTOL in French is ADAV for "aéronef à décollage et atterrissage verticaux". Therefore, eVTOL should be ADAVé in French! 🚁 #aviation #verticalflight
