Aurora Flight Sciences has completed the conceptual design review for a game-changing, high-speed, vertical lift X-plane and will continue development of a preliminary design review. ⚡️ The aircraft is being developed for a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) program called Speed and Runway Independent Technologies (SPRINT). SPRINT “aims to design, build, and fly an X-plane to demonstrate the key technologies and integrated concepts that enable a transformational combination of aircraft speed and runway independence.” Aurora’s concept is a low-drag, fan-in-wing demonstrator that integrates a blended wing body platform, combining the agility of vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) with unprecedented speed. 🚀 The team’s approach seeks to set the program on the path to successful flight and demonstrate game-changing capability for air mobility and Special Operations Forces (SOF) missions. New renderings of the fan-in-wing (FIW) demonstrator reveal three lift fans, a more refined, composite exterior; and an uncrewed cockpit. The choice of three lift fans reflects the team’s strategy to simplify the demonstrator and streamline its path to flight test. 🔗 Find out more >> https://hubs.la/Q02ydjDg0 “The DARPA SPRINT program is an exciting opportunity to continue our history of advancing technology demonstrator programs that enable new capabilities for the U.S. military.” — Larry Wirsing, VP of Aircraft Development at Aurora Flight Science. 👏 Visit the Defense Advancement website for further information. #aircraft #prototype #unmanned #engineering #technology

LM Guide Model SR are used in the seat sliding mechanism of small aircraft. Because the floors in aircraft are generally made from sheet metal, measuring errors relating to mounting sections are common, and mounting can be a lengthy process. Because Model SR have excellent error absorbing capabilities, they can be mounted directly on the floor of aircraft, reducing the work required for assembly. In addition, THK's Miniature LM Guide Model RSR move smoothly and without play but are compact enough to use in seat footrests.

The rotating main rotor blades of a helicopter generate a complex flow field that results in periodic aerodynamic loads on the airframe. ✈️ These loads not only affect the helicopter’s performance but also introduce noise 🔊 and vibrations 🌪️ within the passenger cabin, impacting comfort and communication. Over time, the continuous aerodynamic interactions can lead to structural fatigue 🏗️ and potential damage to the airframe. To enhance safety and performance, the aerospace industry is focusing on innovations in rotor blade design 🛠️, damping systems, and noise reduction technologies. By better understanding these aerodynamic challenges, we can improve the reliability, comfort, and longevity of helicopters, ensuring more efficient and safer operations. 🚁 #Aerospace #HelicopterTechnology #Aerodynamics #Innovation #Safety #Engineering #RotorDynamics #Aviation

Did you know that the world record for the longest paper airplane flight is an astonishing 29.2 seconds? National Paper Airplane Day encourages us to embrace the spirit of engineering and playfulness, reminding us that even the most intricate concepts often begin with a humble piece of paper. We want to take a moment to appreciate the simple yet fascinating world of paper airplanes on National Paper Airplane Day, May 26. At PRI, we appreciate the marvels of engineering, even in the playful realm of paper airplanes. And speaking of aerospace precision, did you know that many of our Nadcap accredited facilities play a crucial role in ensuring the quality and safety of aerospace components? It's true! #nationalpaperairplaneday #paperairplanes #innovation #aerospace #aviation

💭The Blackbird, or as it’s officially known, the Lockheed SR-71, is an aviation legend that still captures the imagination today. ✅Developed in the 1960s by Lockheed’s Skunk Works division, led by the brilliant engineer Clarence “Kelly” Johnson, this aircraft was built for speed, altitude, and evasiveness, making it nearly impossible to catch or shoot down. ✅Its sleek, futuristic design wasn’t just for show—it was engineered to handle some seriously tough conditions. ✅The SR-71 could fly at Mach 3.3 (that’s over 2,500 mph) and reach altitudes of over 85,000 feet, way higher than any surface-to-air missile or radar system could touch. It was equipped with cutting-edge sensors and cameras for gathering intelligence, making it an essential tool during the Cold War. But flying that fast at such high altitudes wasn’t without challenges—air friction generated so much heat that the plane actually expanded mid-flight. To handle that, engineers built the plane with tiny gaps in the fuselage that only sealed up when it reached the right temperature. Although the U.S. Air Force retired the SR-71 in 1998, its legacy still lives on. ✅The Blackbird stands as a symbol of human innovation and the quest for perfection, pushing the limits of what was possible at the time and continuing to inspire aviation enthusiasts and engineers today.
