Could biofuels meet demand for global aviation?

Most of the world’s liquid biofuels currently go into cars and trucks, not planes.

But how will this change in the future?

"Airport expansions likely to ‘jeopardise’ UK’s net-zero efforts, MPs warn"

@ColinTheMathmo
Ah, rabbit-hole explorer, eh? I confess I'm pretty deep in this warren myself. I believe it's for trim, is used in normal flight (but isn't itself the elevator, which might be what you were asking, that's a separate control surface), and has no flaps (basically they're on the wings). Happy to be corrected; I write in a relatively amateur capacity. You may enjoy this thread: https://homebuiltairplanes.com/threads/designing-a-removable-one-piece-horizontal-stabilizer-with-advanced-composites-self-study.37764 Fair warning: it may lead to wanting to build little airplanes.

*edited to add: I think post #31 in that thread (first post of page 2) is particularly pertinent to your question. I believe the author spent much of their career in vibration engineering (I don't know the proper name for their subspecialty, but anyway, suffice to say they're a switched-on cookie).

Bumpy skies: How climate change increases air turbulence.

For many flyers, air turbulence can be an unnerving experience – and in a world warming under the effects of climate change, it is only set to worsen, according to a growing body of scientific evidence.

It's all lies. Everyone knows aircraft are kept aloft by paperwork and propelled forward by vast quantities of cash.

Obviously, cash can be exchanged for more paperwork if one needs to gain height.

#Penang International Airport (#PIA) is poised to become the second biggest #airport in the country with a RM1.5bil expansion project to be completed in 2028

With the expansion, PIA will be able to take 28 #planes at any one time with an additional six parking bays and six remote parking bays

The new design will nearly double PIA’s annual handling capacity of 6.5 MPPA now to 12 MPPA

For 70 years, SJK (C) Chung Shan #school has stood right next to the #Penang International #Airport (#PIA), against the backdrop of #airplanes landing and taking off

All that is about to come to an end as the school will soon be relocated to a new site to make the way for the airport expansion project

The airport staff quarters near the airport car park will also have to make way for the #expansion

#AirAsia has converted 36 of its #A321neo (new engine option) orders to #A321LR (long-range) as it aims to merge its #shorthaul and #longhaul divisions into one global network

The decision to change aircraft type is so that AirAsia could have more flying range to connect the #SoutheastAsia region to Africa, Europe and America

Day out to #MontroseAirStationHeritageCentre today 😃 We saw the #Spitfire, rang the bell and found a nice #dog bed in the Station Commanders Office! There's an #AnimalsAtWar exhibit about various animal heroes from Vic a real #WarHorse to Bamse to Winkie the passenger pigeon! We headed along to the new exhibit with the #HawkerHunter and the #Tornado. Fantastic to see it out on display 😃
