NASA's normally vibrant presence at the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics' showcase Aviation and Ascend events was cut to the bone this year as the agency faces crippling budget cuts. Aviation Week's Graham Warwick, Guy Norris and Garrett Reim were in Las Vegas for the events. They share their impressions from there and concerns about what the NASA cuts could mean for U.S. competitiveness in commercial aviation and space.

The X-59 is the centerpiece of NASA's Quesst mission, which seeks to solve one of the major barriers to commercial supersonic flight over land by making sonic booms quieter.

The United States aviation industry is facing widespread shortages in various key job areas including pilots, traffic controllers, and possibly most importantly, mechanics. A large portion of the current mechanics are approaching retirement age and shortages can lead to aircrafts being grounded causing flight delays and increasing costs for a flight. It is predicted the airline industry will need nearly a million more mechanics over the next twenty years. Fox's Tonya J. Powers speaks to Suzanne Markle, the President and CEO of Pittsburgh Institute of Aeronautics, an institution for aviation maintenance technology, who says it is key to encourage younger Americans to gain interest in this much needed occupation that is a large part of our economy and an alternate to college-based jobs.

In this episode of Notable Leaders' Radio, I sit down with Andy Crocker, author of The Unconditionals, to explore how five core values, unconditional love, gratitude, integrity, accountability, and endeavor, can transform how we face challenges and build resilience. Andy shares powerful insights and real-life stories that reveal how grounding yourself in these values can help you recover from failure faster, pivot with purpose, and live a life defined by meaning, not perfection. In this episode, you'll learn how to: See failure as a launchpad, not a dead end. When you stop viewing setbacks as defeat, you recover faster and grow wiser, equipped to seize new opportunities with greater clarity and courage. Define success on your own terms. Ditch the societal checklist. Pursuing fulfillment, not perfection, leads to greater joy, authenticity, and personal achievement. Pivot with purpose when life shifts. Unexpected turns are inevitable. A values-based mindset empowers you to adjust course with intention and rediscover meaning, even in the midst of change. Embrace imperfection as a path to progress. Mastery isn't about getting it right the first time—it's about learning, evolving, and moving forward without fear of failure.

  Mr. X (Donald Sutherland) in the movie JFK by Oliver Stone was based off of the military career of Col. L. Fletcher Prouty. Prouty's military career started before Pearl Harbour, where he was assigned as a Horse Cavalryman. After horses were replaced with tanks in 1941, Prouty joined the Tank Corps under General Creighton Abrams. Abrams went on to be the Senior Military officer in Vietnam during the Vietnam War from 1968-1972. Already a licensed pilot in the Tank Corp, the Air Force recruited Prouty; he transferred quickly to flight school in Africa. Prouty served in the Africa Middle East wing of the Air Transport Command. Prouty being sent to the Cairo Conference in 1943 was the start of Prouty's career with clandestine operations. The Cairo Conference was attended by Churchill, Roosevelt & Chiang Kai-Shek from China. From there, Prouty was sent directly to the Tehran Conference between Churchill, Roosevelt & Stalin met for the 1st time. Why haven't historians been told that Chiang Kai-Shek was ALSO at the Tehran Conference? Prouty knows Chiang Kai-Shek attended the Tehran Conference because he was the pilot that flew him there. A friend of Prouty's was the pilot who flew Elliot Roosevelt to the same Tehran Conference in 1943. After the conferences Prouty was sent to Pacific, flying heavy transport, mostly patients to the hospital, until the war ended. The unit Prouty was flying in was asked to fly immediately into Japan once the war was over in August 1945. The only air base that the US hadn't bombed in anticipation of invading was the major underground Japanese base at Atsugi. The CIA utilized the Atsugi base, where men like Lee Harvey Oswald were later stationed. When Prouty flew back to Okinawa he noticed a huge stockpile of military equipment being loaded onto US ships. The Harbour Master told Prouty the equipment was being sent to Vietnam and Korea. Who had given the orders for the relocation of the military equipment? How early were plans made to invade Vietnam? Prouty was ordered by the Army to report to Yale University to help start a new aviation program. Prouty taught at Yale for three years before being sent to NY to write a text book on Aeronautics for the US Army. After publishing the first text book, Prouty was asked to write another book on rockets and missiles. Given full authority by the government to go anywhere, and interview anyone, Prouty interviewed Werner Von Braun. Von Braun explained to Prouty in 1949 how he would land a rocket on the moon. After helping to set up the NORAD operation in Colorado Springs, after a year Prouty was sent to Tokyo. While the US was an occupation force in Japan, the US military ran the country while Japan was rebuilt. Tokyo had been completely devastated. Prouty was installed as the airport manager for the International Tokyo Airport. Prouty had never seen anywhere as destroyed as Tokyo was by the end of the war. In the Korean war period, after the airport was given back to the Japanese, Prouty helped fly supplies to Lansdale. In 1952-1953 CIA's Edward G. Lansdale built up a covert army in the Philippines under the leadership of Ramon Magsaysay. President Quirino had been the leader of the Philippine government before Magsaysay was installed in 1953. In 1955 Prouty was sent back to US to attend the Armed Forces Staff College run by the Joints Chiefs of Staff. Prouty was then brought into the Pentagon. In 1955 under Eisenhower, CIA would get assistance and funds from military conduits to support their covert operations. In order to enable this plan, an office and system had to be created to handle this global operation. As Chief of Special Operations for the Air Force, Prouty was given the task of heading and creating the office and system. Lansdale was also in the Pentagon at this time, developing programs which later turned into the Special Forces.

20250617- Dr. Sharon Devivo: President of Vaughn College of Aeronautics & Technology by That KEVIN Show

O maior e mais antigo salão aeronáutico e espacial do mundo, o Paris Air Show, acontece até domingo (22) no aeroporto de Le Bourget, nos arredores da capital francesa. Ponto de encontro para fabricantes de aviões e armamentos, o evento é a ocasião para apresentar tecnologias de ponta e anunciar novos contratos. Este ano, porém, a programação sofre o impacto da guerra comercial e da escalada de tensões entre Israel e o Irã.    Maria Paula Carvalho, de Paris Quase metade dos 2.400 expositores são franceses, de grandes corporações a pequenas e médias empresas.O Brasil é representado por dez fabricantes que oferecem soluções avançadas para os setores aeroespacial e de defesa, com destaque para a Embraer, presente no salão há mais de 40 anos, e que exibe o jato E195-E2 e o cargueiro militar KC-390 Millennium, já adquirido por países como Holanda, Áustria e Suécia, além do A-29 Super Tucano, aeronave leve de ataque e treinamento.  Entre os destaques comerciais, a europeia Airbus anunciou importantes encomendas: a AviLease adquiriu 10 cargueiros A350F e 30 modelos A320neo, com opção de ampliar para 22 e 55 unidades, respectivamente. Já a Riyadh Air encomendou 25 Airbus A350-1000, com direito de compra de mais 25 aeronaves.  A fabricante americana Boeing, por sua vez, reduziu sua participação este ano, após a queda de uma de suas aeronaves operadas pela Air India, na semana passada. A tragédia, de causas ainda desconhecidas, deixou 279 mortos entre ocupantes do avião e pessoas atingidas em terra. O diretor-geral da empresa, Kelly Ortberg, que era aguardado no salão para falar dos planos de recuperação da companhia, cancelou a sua vinda a Paris.  Foco na defesa  Cerca de 47% dos expositores têm atuação militar, refletindo o foco crescente em defesa.   Em meio ao conflito na Faixa de Gaza e a recente ofensiva de Israel contra o Irã, o governo francês ordenou o bloqueio do acesso aos estandes de cinco fabricantes israelenses de material bélico que exibiam "armas ofensivas", segundo autoridades francesas.Os estandes da Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), Rafael, Uvision, Elbit e Aeronautics foram cobertos por lonas pretas. Uma decisão "escandalosa" e "sem precedentes" segundo Shlomo Toaff, vice-presidente da Rafael, fabricante de mísseis israelenses. “Um dos nossos funcionários ligou para os organizadores. Eles disseram que se tratava de uma ordem do governo francês. Isso é estranho, pois na semana passada, um tribunal francês, que havia sido acionado, decidiu que poderíamos participar do evento. Apesar dessa decisão, o governo não permite mostrar o nosso estande: é escandaloso!”, lamentou.   Se a edição de 2023 viu as encomendas aumentarem após a pandemia de Covid-19, a edição deste ano acontece num contexto de guerra comercial e da desaceleração da economia mundial, com as empresas enfrentando custos em alta e cadeias de suprimentos afetadas.    “O maior desafio atual dos industriais, seja civis ou ligados à defesa, é a capacidade de aumentar a produção", explica Louis Catala, consultor aeronáutico.Em entrevista à RFI, Catala afirma sobre o futuro do setor: "Hoje, vemos que as carteiras de encomendas estão completas pelos próximos anos e a questão é saber com que velocidade é possível aumentar as entregas. Outro ponto importante é saber em que momento poderíamos passar a uma economia de guerra, a questão não é se, mas quando isso aconteceria, para que os fabricantes possam organizar a sua capacidade material e planificar os pedidos". Corrida ao espaço  Enquanto muitos países se lançam na corrida espacial, franceses e europeus mostram sinais de declínio nessa área. Menos lançamentos, menos financiamento e uma dependência crescente de tecnologias estrangeiras.De acordo com um relatório do Instituto Montaigne, a Europa responde atualmente por apenas 5% da massa orbital global lançada a cada ano. O bloco também investe seis vezes menos do que os Estados Unidos nessa área estratégica, em que almejava a liderança global.   A Europa sofre o impacto da dominação americana, em particular da empresa SpaceX, de Elon Musk, que realizou 138 dos 145 lançamentos americanos em 2024, graças aos seus foguetes reutilizáveis. Os europeus, por sua vez, registraram apenas três lançamentos, devido à aposentadoria do Ariane 5, ao atraso do Ariane 6 e do Vega-C, e à perda de acesso aos foguetes russos Soyuz.  É no espaço, no entanto, que surge um novo mercado. Satélites fora de uso ou resíduos perigosos em órbita representam sérios riscos. Esses destroços voadores podem causar danos significativos a satélites ou estações espaciais, explica Quentin Verspieren, coordenador do programa de segurança espacial da Agência Espacial Europeia (ESA, na sigla em inglês). “Estimamos que um destroço de um centímetro que entre em contato com um satélite libere a mesma energia da explosão de uma granada militar. E existem aproximadamente 1 milhão deles no espaço”, aponta.    Hoje em dia, deixar detritos no espaço não é sancionado por nenhuma legislação internacional. Porém, a Agência Espacial Europeia investe centenas de milhões de euros em um novo mercado que está se desenvolvendo.  Philippe Blatt, CEO da Astroscale na França, uma empresa que tem a matriz no Japão e cuida de liberar as rotas espaciais, aposta em um mercado estratégico. “Nós fabricamos pequenos satélites para consertar, abastecer de combustível, observar, inspecionar e proteger satélites que estão em órbita. Nossos clientes hoje são as grandes agências espaciais e o Ministério da Defesa, assim como a Força Aérea americana”, diz.     A indústria espacial francesa gerou € 70 bilhões em receita em 2023. O governo visa apoiar a indústria, estimular a inovação e fortalecer a autonomia estratégica do país. Porém, embora a França possua importantes ativos – uma base industrial sólida, excelência científica e experiência reconhecida – o seu futuro no espaço dependerá da capacidade da Europa de recuperar o impulso coletivo, apesar da turbulência que atravessa.

For the fourth year in a row, NASA is the proud recipient of the prestigious Collier Trophy.

What happens when today's treasure – satellites that give us access to broadband internet and accurate weather forecasts among other things – become tomorrow's trash? Or, in other words, where does all that space junk go? And what does climate change have to do with it? Last month, a team of aerospace engineers at MIT released their findings from a research study on the effects of climate change on satellites in the Earth's upper atmosphere. Will Parker, PhD candidate in Aeronautics and Astronautics at MIT, and lead author of the study, joins The Excerpt to discuss how global warming affects satellites.

Our analysis of the Space & Aeronautics, Defense and Homeland Security industries from key trends to investment landscape… to perhaps, more importantly, evil vs no evil? Where are we now?Navigation:Intro (01:34)Why now?GeopoliticsAerospace and AeronauticsDefense and Homeland SecurityConclusionOur co-hosts:Bertrand Schmitt, Entrepreneur in Residence at Red River West, co-founder of App Annie / Data.ai, business angel, advisor to startups and VC funds, @bschmittNuno Goncalves Pedro, Investor, Managing Partner, Founder at Chamaeleon, @ngpedroOur show: Tech DECIPHERED brings you the Entrepreneur and Investor views on Big Tech, VC and Start-up news, opinion pieces and research. We decipher their meaning, and add inside knowledge and context. Being nerds, we also discuss the latest gadgets and pop culture news Subscribe To Our Podcast Nuno G. PedroWelcome to Tech DECIPHERED. In today's episode, Episode 62, we're going to discuss space and aeronautics, defense and online security. We are going to talk about key trends, why now is such a wonderful time to be looking at this space not only from a startup perspective but also from an investment landscape perspective. We'll also go into the whole evil versus no evil topic. Specifically, we will discuss why now, and the geopolitics of the industries, aerospace and aeronautics, defense and homeland security, and then we will conclude. Bertrand, why now? Bertrand SchmittWhy now? I think this industry, this sector, space, defense, homeland security has seen not just a lot of growth and quite a few very successful companies coming out, but it's an interesting complete turnaround, if you look at that from an entrepreneur or from a VC investor perspective. Why now? I think there has been, I would say, historically, there was a lot of scepticism, a lot of concerns by entrepreneurs, investors alike, centred around the military industrial complex. Bertrand SchmittWe probably all remember the famous Eisenhower's farewell address where he was sharing his distrust of that military industrial complex. And venture capital shunned these sectors also due to long sales cycle, in some cases only one client, the Department of defense for many startups, as well as ethical debates. Bertrand SchmittAt the same time, it's an evolving landscape. Startup came with disrupting legacy models. It's not just a cost-plus approach. It's a product approach. It's agile. It's innovation. The debate around, is it evil to is it something we must do in order to address global threats, basically coming to the forefront for investors and entrepreneurs alike. Nuno G. PedroIt's a supply and demand issue. It's not just that startups are not necessarily interested in it because it always creates this issue around, is it evil? Is it good? Are we doing something good or not? I think there's a lot of that. There's a lot of supply issue because of that angle. But it's also a demand issue. Contracts historically with military take a long time to be hashed out. They depend on doing trials and proofs of concept. Nuno G. PedroI think on the other hand, it's an industry that historically was very resilient and dominated by services. Particularly the US military want to own everything, and so, therefore, there was this notion that whoever was the provider provided it to provide it as a service for them. There are services that still need to be done today, but the industry has been largely productized, and there are a lot of products. I buy planes, I buy weaponry, I buy a bunch of different software systems that will allow me to operate, but they're productized. I think that's one of the big shifts that we've seen and why now is a good time to look at it. Nuno G. PedroIf I'm a startup, I don't need to go through 3, 4, 5-year cycles until I sell anything of scale. Then on the plus side, once I sell, it is at scale. There's a lot of money in the military.

Outer space is one of those things you know when you see it. The sky is dark and quiet, with not enough air to sustain life. But just where space begins is hard to say – there’s no single definition that’s accepted by one and all. In the last century, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics – the forerunner of NASA – said that space begins 50 miles up. At that altitude, the air pressure is only about a hundred-thousandth of the pressure at sea level. NASA and the Air Force have used that definition to award astronaut wings, beginning with the pilots of the X-15 rocketplane in the 1960s. Later, engineer Theodore von K‡rm‡n devised a slightly higher boundary: 100 kilometers – about 62 miles. At that altitude, the air pressure is just one-millionth of the pressure at sea level. In such thin air, a craft must move at orbital velocity to stay aloft. That altitude is known as the K‡rm‡n Line. Today, it’s the most commonly used definition for the edge of space. Anything that stays below that line is an aircraft, while anything that goes above it is a spacecraft. Hundreds of people have flown above that line – qualifying them as space travelers. A smidgen of atmosphere extends above even the Karman Line – up to several thousand miles. It’s so thin, though, that it’s basically a vacuum – a region that certainly qualifies as “outer space.” We’ll go deep into outer space tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

The Hindustan Aeronautics Limited - India's premier aerospace manufacturing company - is in focus this week due to factors some argue are beyond its control. A fatal crash of a Dhruv Mk III Advanced Light Helicopter has led to a fleet wide grounding across all the services that operate it. And, in an unrelated development, the Indian Air Force expressed frustration with the delays in the deliveries of the Tejas fighter jet. Both the machines in question are the crown jewels of the Hindustan Aeronautics Limited's efforts design, develop and build indigenous aircraft for India's military. The Hindustan Aeronautics Limited plays an outsized role in India's military aviation and the two developments have once again put the spotlight on the government-owned behemoth's ability to deliver quality on time. And so, on this episode of In Our Defence, host Dev Goswami and defence expert Shiv Aroor take a close look at the Hindustan Aeronautics Limited and all that's wrong - and also what's right - with the organisation. The two explore what the HAL needs to do to in order to shrug off its bureaucratic past and move into the competitive future where its position as India's sole supplier of military aviation equipment is at threat. Dev and Shiv also take a particular close look as Indian Air Force chief Air Chief Marshal AP Singh's recent lament of not getting the Tejas fighter jets on time. The Air Force chief unusually strong comments raised a few eyebrows. What's behind the sentiment? Tune in for this and more to the latest episode of In Our Defence.

**Discussion begins at 4:15**Since 1916, Boeing has been synonymous with safety and reliability.  The company was responsible for the production of 100,000 airplanes for Allied Forces in WW2, the production of Air Force One, and revolutionizing air travel.  The slogan was, “If it's not Boeing, I'm not going”.  Following a merger with McDonnell Douglas, experts agree that the company had a culture shift, in which perhaps finances were prioritized over safety.  This all came to a head when Boeing did a rapid roll out of the 737 Max, in an attempt to keep up with their only competition, Airbus.  Following a slew of poor decisions, there were two plane crashes, with 346 deaths.  Since that time, a number of employees have come forward to report safety issues with Boeing and it's contractor, Spirit Aerosystems.  Things had been relatively quiet for Boeing, until last year when a number of safety issues brought them back into the news.  Following a 2.5 billion dollar loss, 50,000 lay offs, and a drop in stocks by 26% in the first quarter, two of the Boeing whistleblowers died under mysterious circumstances within 2 months of each other.  Were these just unfortunate tragedies?  Or was Boeing behind the mysterious deaths?Send us a textSupport the showTheme song by INDA

In this episode, we talk to Professor Robert Miller, Director of the Whittle Laboratory at the University of Cambridge, who shares why 2030 targets are crucial for the aviation industry's transition towards net zero.Miller is also the head of the Aviation Impact Accelerator (AIA), a collaboration between the Whittle Laboratory and the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership. The AIA recently released the “Five Years to Chart a New Future for Aviation” report which outlined 4 key Sustainable Aviation Goals, which, if achieved in the next 5 years, can help aviation reach net-zero by 2050. Miller shares insights into the recently released report and highlights several key issues:The misconception of smooth technology transitions, emphasising that historical precedents show abrupt changes with usually one dominant solution emerging, similar to VHS vs Betamax or cars vs horses.Operation Blue Skies which seeks to address persistent contrails by setting up “Airspace-Scale Living Labs”.The introduction of bold efficiency measures that could halve fuel burn by 2050, including reducing aircraft life from 30 to 15 years, flying 15% slower, and better matching aircraft to route distances.The challenges of scaling Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) within global biomass limitations, with potential ticket price increases ranging from 30%-90% depending on production method.The opportunity for hydrogen adoption in long-haul aviation, with potential for 10-30% fleet penetration by 2050, focusing initially on the 50 largest hub airports that consume half of global jet fuel.The importance of launching moonshot technology demonstrations by 2030, including cryogenic hydrogen/methane fuels, synthetic biology, and hydrogen-electric propulsion.Throughout the conversation, Miller emphasises the urgency of immediate action. He stresses that while only 10% of the global population has flown, expanding access to air travel must be balanced with aggressive decarbonisation efforts.If you LOVED this episode, you'll also love the conversation we had with Dr Florian Allroggen, Executive Director, Aerospace Climate & Sustainability, and a Research Scientist in MIT's Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, who shares the science behind contrails, their climate impact, and practical solutions for mitigation.

In this episode, we talk to Dr Florian Allroggen, Executive Director, Aerospace Climate & Sustainability, and a Research Scientist in MIT's Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, who shares insights into the science of contrails and their impact on aviation's climate footprint.Allroggen discusses his role, focusing on understanding aviation's environmental impact and developing solutions for a net-zero pathway. He highlights several key issues:The formation of contrails as ice clouds when aircraft exhaust meets cold atmospheric conditions, and their dual role in both warming and cooling the atmosphere.The comparable magnitude of contrail warming effects to CO2 emissions, with varying impacts depending on the timeframe considered – contrails having larger short-term effects while CO2's impact accumulates over centuries.The potential for contrail avoidance through flight path adjustments, particularly by changing aircraft altitude rather than horizontal routing, due to the “pancake-like” nature of contrail-forming regions.The development of real-time contrail detection technology using NASA satellite imagery and machine learning, currently being tested with Delta Air Lines.The challenges of implementing contrail avoidance strategies, including the need for air traffic control coordination and the balance between fuel efficiency and contrail reduction.The need for a holistic approach to aviation sustainability, addressing both CO2 and non-CO2 impacts while maintaining safety.Throughout the conversation, Allroggen advocates for practical experimentation and implementation of contrail mitigation strategies, while acknowledging the uncertainties and challenges involved. He emphasises the importance of making robust decisions despite uncertainties, drawing parallels with everyday decision-making under uncertain conditions.If you LOVED this episode, you'll also love the conversation we had with  Maxime Meijers and Nicolas Meijers, co-founders of Estuaire.

John Quinn is joined by Karl Hennessee, Senior Vice President and Head of Litigation, Investigations, and Regulatory Affairs at Airbus.  Karl supervises Airbus's criminal investigations, regulatory cases, product liability cases, and commercial arbitration disputes, covering incidents as significant as air crashes, as well as other disputes.  He discusses the importance of maintaining a "hundred-year view" of issues that includes overseeing issues that arose 50 years in the past while preparing for regulatory challenges 50 years in the future.  His team includes specialists in AI, aircraft certification, and arbitration, all of whom share a "democracy of ideas" approach to developing case strategies.  Karl identifies three core principles that guide Airbus's dispute management: viewing disputes as tools for managing risk rather than ends in themselves; "strategic empathy" — understanding opposing interests and perspectives to improve outcomes; and humility in handling high-stakes, high-profile cases. In house lawyers need to earn trust by translating legal issues into actionable insights for business leaders, often by first understanding the technical aspects of Airbus's products.  Public relations play a critical role in managing disputes, especially for a company under constant public scrutiny.  There must be close collaboration with communications teams to present balanced narratives and build public trust even in adverse situations.  John and Karl also discusses emerging areas of concern such as ESG regulations and the recent breakdown of international norms of comity and deference to foreign judicial decisions, especially with respect to the effect of international sanctions.  Karl has extensive experience in international arbitration and is the former Chairman of the Governing Body of the ICC Court of International Arbitration.  He offers his insights about potential improvements in arbitration, particularly requiring shorter case timelines, having early case assessments to weed out hopeless frivolous  cases and other suggestions summarized in a recent paper published by the London Court of International Arbitration.  Finally, he shares advice on work-life balance, emphasizing the importance of dedicating time to personal interests and preserving a sense of fulfillment in both professional and personal life.Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.
