In response to fuel costs, major aircraft carriers are concentrating on redesigning their fleets by reducing weight to optimize fuel consumption and the passenger experience. Lightweight composites ...

The aircraft earned a reputation for being difficult to land, but that did not fully ground it.

Modern CAD systems allow engineers to create intricate 3D models of avionics systems with remarkable detail. These designs incorporate real-world simulations, enabling engineers to test performance ...

LONDON—The design of the fighter aircraft at the heart of the Global Combat Air Program (GCAP) needs to have “full-spectrum” low observability (LO) and ultra-long range built into the design, a senior ...

I think the challenge for FAA, at least from the perspective of the manufacturers, is having the available expertise," said Derrick Collins.
