Airliners have looked largely the same for a long time now. The ongoing hunt for efficiency gains has seen the development of winglets, drag reducing films, and all manner of little aerodynamic tricks ...

Luminary Cloud has launched Shift-Wing, an AI-powered model and dataset designed to accelerate the conceptual design of advanced aircraft wings, from subsonic all the way up to transonic speeds. The ...

Researchers at the Engineering School at Princeton University have taken inspiration from birds to improve flight performance and safety in aircraft. The researchers deployed rows of flaps to the wing ...

Boeing subsidiary Aurora Flight Sciences has revealed new details about its prototype fan-in-wing aircraft and released an animation of the craft’s vertical lift rotors. The still-unnamed design is ...

Aurora Flight Sciences, a Boeing Company, has been selected for phase 1 of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) SPeed and Runway INdependent Technologies (SPRINT) X-Plane ...

Testing at MIT's Wright Brothers Wind Tunnel validates that the EL9's blown lift wing design unlocks novel aviation capabilities including the ability to take off and land in 150 feet CAMBRIDGE, Mass.

Wing flaps are movable surfaces located on the trailing edge of the wings and are typically deployed during specific phases ...

The fuselage of a drone serves as its structural core, housing critical components such as batteries, sensors, and control systems, while providing attachment points for wings, motors, and landing ...
