India is finalizing a $1 billion deal with General Electric for F 404-IN20 engines to power its Light Combat Aircraft (LCA ...
Realistically, the Boeing 777X is a response to the rise of Airbus's own modern long-haul widebody twinjet, the A350. After ...
As the world shifts towards sustainable practices, the aviation industry is not left behind. Electric planes are emerging as ...
Building off a previous Memorandum of Understanding, American has also (conditionally) committed to purchasing 100 hydrogen-electric plane engines from ZeroAvia for regional flights.
Alaska Airlines donated a Q400 aircraft to ZeroAvia, the company developing the new motor. The plane will be retrofitted with a hydrogen-electric propulsion system.
Hence most of the electric aircraft work focuses on small planes — whether it’s the Beaver with MagniX engines that seats just six passengers or Tecnam’s P-VOLT with room for nine passengers.

In a conventional jet airplane, the engine sucks air in through its front, a compressor squeezes it, and fuel is sprayed in and lit, creating burning gases and forward thrust. Electric plane power ...
Not quite in the realm of a super-powered electric unit like the Siemens 260 kW (340 hp) monster, perhaps, but a handy addition to the lowly-powered engines of many light planes nonetheless.
In a new first for electric flight, researchers at MIT have succeeded in achieving heavier-than-air powered flight using an engine with no moving parts. The experimental aircraft is paving the way ...
If they lose one engine, they’ll have 17 more to fall back on. NASA is testing an experimental 31-foot aircraft wing with 18 electric motors placed along the leading edge.
NASA researchers took a rather unique prototype aircraft for a spin last week: Greased Lightning, a 10-engine electric plane with rotating wings that allow it to take off and land like a helicopter.
