NASA and Boeing are testing longer, thinner wings that can provide a smoother plane ride while saving fuel. It’s claimed that ...
Making the wings on passenger jets thinner and longer can go a long way toward reducing drag and making them more efficient, but they vibrate like crazy. Engineers at NASA and Boeing are now tackling ...
The airliner you board in the future could look a lot different from today's, with longer, thinner wings that provide a ...
Long, narrow wings are intended to reduce fuel consumption and increase comfort in aircraft. However, wing flutter must be ...
Airplanes don't need their wings to be symmetrical to take to the skies. At first, planes were designed with perpendicular wings to the plane's fuselage because every flying creature in nature ...
While Airbus expects its next narrowbody jet will have a traditional tube-and-wing configuration, it has not abandoned the idea of an eventual blended-wing-body (BWB) design for a larger jet. That is ...
Modern passenger planes are pretty impressive machines. They carry hundreds of people for thousands of miles, pack in luxury trimmings like showers and can even hit supersonic speeds in the right ...
The Breakthrough Laminar Aircraft Demonstrator in Europe (BLADE) project is part of the Clean Sky Smart Fixed Wing Aircraft (SWFA) programme, an extensive, 50% European Union-funded, multi-partner ...
Anyone with an inkling of interest in super-sized remote control aircraft probably has at least seen some of the mind-blowing projects that [Ramy RC] has worked on over the years, with examples ...
