A version of this essay has been published by firstpost.com at https://www.firstpost.com/opinion/shadow-warrior-from-crisis-to-advantage-how-india-can-outplay-the-trump-tariff-gambit-13923031.htmlA simple summary of the recent brouhaha about President Trump's imposition of 25% tariffs on India as well as his comment on India's ‘dead economy' is the following from Shakespeare's Macbeth: “full of sound and fury, signifying nothing”. Trump further imposed punitive tariffs totalling 50% on August 6th allegedly for India funding Russia's war machine via buying oil.As any negotiator knows, a good opening gambit is intended to set the stage for further parleys, so that you could arrive at a negotiated settlement that is acceptable to both parties. The opening gambit could well be a maximalist statement, or one's ‘dream outcome', the opposite of which is ‘the walkway point' beyond which you are simply not willing to make concessions. The usual outcome is somewhere in between these two positions or postures.Trump is both a tough negotiator, and prone to making broad statements from which he has no problem retreating later. It's down-and-dirty boardroom tactics that he's bringing to international trade. Therefore I think Indians don't need to get rattled. It's not the end of the world, and there will be climbdowns and adjustments. Think hard about the long term.I was on a panel discussion on this topic on TV just hours after Trump made his initial 25% announcement, and I mentioned an interplay between geo-politics and geo-economics. Trump is annoyed that his Ukraine-Russia play is not making much headway, and also that BRICS is making progress towards de-dollarization. India is caught in this crossfire (‘collateral damage') but the geo-economic facts on the ground are not favorable to Trump.I am in general agreement with Trump on his objectives of bringing manufacturing and investment back to the US, but I am not sure that he will succeed, and anyway his strong-arm tactics may backfire. I consider below what India should be prepared to do to turn adversity into opportunity.The anti-Thucydides Trap and the baleful influence of Whitehall on Deep StateWhat is remarkable, though, is that Trump 2.0 seems to be indistinguishable from the Deep State: I wondered last month if the Deep State had ‘turned' Trump. The main reason many people supported Trump in the first place was the damage the Deep State was wreaking on the US under the Obama-Biden regime. But it appears that the resourceful Deep State has now co-opted Trump for its agenda, and I can only speculate how.The net result is that there is the anti-Thucydides Trap: here is the incumbent power, the US, actively supporting the insurgent power, China, instead of suppressing it, as Graham Allison suggested as the historical pattern. It, in all fairness, did not start with Trump, but with Nixon in China in 1971. In 1985, the US trade deficit with China was $6 million. In 1986, $1.78 billion. In 1995, $35 billion.But it ballooned after China entered the WTO in 2001. $202 billion in 2005; $386 billion in 2022.In 2025, after threatening China with 150% tariffs, Trump retreated by postponing them; besides he has caved in to Chinese demands for Nvidia chips and for exemptions from Iran oil sanctions if I am not mistaken.All this can be explained by one word: leverage. China lured the US with the siren-song of the cost-leader ‘China price', tempting CEOs and Wall Street, who sleepwalked into surrender to the heft of the Chinese supply chain.Now China has cornered Trump via its monopoly over various things, the most obvious of which is rare earths. Trump really has no option but to give in to Chinese blackmail. That must make him furious: in addition to his inability to get Putin to listen to him, Xi is also ignoring him. Therefore, he will take out his frustrations on others, such as India, the EU, Japan, etc. Never mind that he's burning bridges with them.There's a Malayalam proverb that's relevant here: “angadiyil thottathinu ammayodu”. Meaning, you were humiliated in the marketplace, so you come home and take it out on your mother. This is quite likely what Trump is doing, because he believes India et al will not retaliate. In fact Japan and the EU did not retaliate, but gave in, also promising to invest large sums in the US. India could consider a different path: not active conflict, but not giving in either, because its equations with the US are different from those of the EU or Japan.Even the normally docile Japanese are beginning to notice.Beyond that, I suggested a couple of years ago that Deep State has a plan to enter into a condominium agreement with China, so that China gets Asia, and the US gets the Americas and the Pacific/Atlantic. This is exactly like the Vatican-brokered medieval division of the world between Spain and Portugal, and it probably will be equally bad for everyone else. And incidentally it makes the Quad infructuous, and deepens distrust of American motives.The Chinese are sure that they have achieved the condominium, or rather forced the Americans into it. Here is a headline from the Financial Express about their reaction to the tariffs: they are delighted that the principal obstacle in their quest for hegemony, a US-India military and economic alliance, is being blown up by Trump, and they lose no opportunity to deride India as not quite up to the mark, whereas they and the US have achieved a G2 detente.Two birds with one stone: gloat about the breakdown in the US-India relationship, and exhibit their racist disdain for India yet again.They laugh, but I bet India can do an end-run around them. As noted above, the G2 is a lot like the division of the world into Spanish and Portuguese spheres of influence in 1494. Well, that didn't end too well for either of them. They had their empires, which they looted for gold and slaves, but it made them fat, dumb and happy. The Dutch, English, and French capitalized on more dynamic economies, flexible colonial systems, and aggressive competition, overtaking the Iberian powers in global influence by the 17th century. This is a salutary historical parallel.I have long suspected that the US Deep State is being led by the nose by the malign Whitehall (the British Deep State): I call it the ‘master-blaster' syndrome. On August 6th, there was indirect confirmation of this in ex-British PM Boris Johnson's tweet about India. Let us remember he single-handedly ruined the chances of a peaceful resolution of the Ukraine War in 2022. Whitehall's mischief and meddling all over, if you read between the lines.Did I mention the British Special Force's views? Ah, Whitehall is getting a bit sloppy in its propaganda.Wait, so is India important (according to Whitehall) or unimportant (according to Trump)?Since I am very pro-American, I have a word of warning to Trump: you trust perfidious Albion at your peril. Their country is ruined, and they will not rest until they ruin yours too.I also wonder if there are British paw-prints in a recent and sudden spate of racist attacks on Indians in Ireland. A 6-year old girl was assaulted and kicked in the private parts. A nurse was gang-raped by a bunch of teenagers. Ireland has never been so racist against Indians (yes, I do remember the sad case of Savita Halappanavar, but that was religious bigotry more than racism). And I remember sudden spikes in anti-Indian attacks in Australia and Canada, both British vassals.There is no point in Indians whining about how the EU and America itself are buying more oil, palladium, rare earths, uranium etc. from Russia than India is. I am sorry to say this, but Western nations are known for hypocrisy. For example, exactly 80 years ago they dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan, but not on Germany or Italy. Why? The answer is uncomfortable. Lovely post-facto rationalization, isn't it?Remember the late lamented British East India Company that raped and pillaged India?Applying the three winning strategies to geo-economicsAs a professor of business strategy and innovation, I emphasize to my students that there are three broad ways of gaining an advantage over others: 1. Be the cost leader, 2. Be the most customer-intimate player, 3. Innovate. The US as a nation is patently not playing the cost leader; it does have some customer intimacy, but it is shrinking; its strength is in innovation.If you look at comparative advantage, the US at one time had strengths in all three of the above. Because it had the scale of a large market (and its most obvious competitors in Europe were decimated by world wars) America did enjoy an ability to be cost-competitive, especially as the dollar is the global default reserve currency. It demonstrated this by pushing through the Plaza Accords, forcing the Japanese yen to appreciate, destroying their cost advantage.In terms of customer intimacy, the US is losing its edge. Take cars for example: Americans practically invented them, and dominated the business, but they are in headlong retreat now because they simply don't make cars that people want outside the US: Japanese, Koreans, Germans and now Chinese do. Why were Ford and GM forced to leave the India market? Their “world cars” are no good in value-conscious India and other emerging markets.Innovation, yes, has been an American strength. Iconic Americans like Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, and Steve Jobs led the way in product and process innovation. US universities have produced idea after idea, and startups have ignited Silicon Valley. In fact Big Tech and aerospace/armaments are the biggest areas where the US leads these days.The armaments and aerospace tradeThat is pertinent because of two reasons: one is Trump's peevishness at India's purchase of weapons from Russia (even though that has come down from 70+% of imports to 36% according to SIPRI); two is the fact that there are significant services and intangible imports by India from the US, of for instance Big Tech services, even some routed through third countries like Ireland.Armaments and aerospace purchases from the US by India have gone up a lot: for example the Apache helicopters that arrived recently, the GE 404 engines ordered for India's indigenous fighter aircraft, Predator drones and P8-i Poseidon maritime surveillance aircraft. I suspect Trump is intent on pushing India to buy F-35s, the $110-million dollar 5th generation fighters.Unfortunately, the F-35 has a spotty track record. There were two crashes recently, one in Albuquerque in May, and the other on July 31 in Fresno, and that's $220 million dollars gone. Besides, the spectacle of a hapless British-owned F-35B sitting, forlorn, in the rain, in Trivandrum airport for weeks, lent itself to trolls, who made it the butt of jokes. I suspect India has firmly rebuffed Trump on this front, which has led to his focus on Russian arms.There might be other pushbacks too. Personally, I think India does need more P-8i submarine hunter-killer aircraft to patrol the Bay of Bengal, but India is exerting its buyer power. There are rumors of pauses in orders for Javelin and Stryker missiles as well.On the civilian aerospace front, I am astonished that all the media stories about Air India 171 and the suspicion that Boeing and/or General Electric are at fault have disappeared without a trace. Why? There had been the big narrative push to blame the poor pilots, and now that there is more than reasonable doubt that these US MNCs are to blame, there is a media blackout?Allegations about poor manufacturing practices by Boeing in North Charleston, South Carolina by whistleblowers have been damaging for the company's brand: this is where the 787 Dreamliners are put together. It would not be surprising if there is a slew of cancellations of orders for Boeing aircraft, with customers moving to Airbus. Let us note Air India and Indigo have placed some very large, multi-billion dollar orders with Boeing that may be in jeopardy.India as a consuming economy, and the services trade is hugely in the US' favorMany observers have pointed out the obvious fact that India is not an export-oriented economy, unlike, say, Japan or China. It is more of a consuming economy with a large, growing and increasingly less frugal population, and therefore it is a target for exporters rather than a competitor for exporting countries. As such, the impact of these US tariffs on India will be somewhat muted, and there are alternative destinations for India's exports, if need be.While Trump has focused on merchandise trade and India's modest surplus there, it is likely that there is a massive services trade, which is in the US' favor. All those Big Tech firms, such as Microsoft, Meta, Google and so on run a surplus in the US' favor, which may not be immediately evident because they route their sales through third countries, e.g. Ireland.These are the figures from the US Trade Representative, and quite frankly I don't believe them: there are a lot of invisible services being sold to India, and the value of Indian data is ignored.In addition to the financial implications, there are national security concerns. Take the case of Microsoft's cloud offering, Azure, which arbitrarily turned off services to Indian oil retailer Nayara on the flimsy grounds that the latter had substantial investment from Russia's Rosneft. This is an example of jurisdictional over-reach by US companies, which has dire consequences. India has been lax about controlling Big Tech, and this has to change.India is Meta's largest customer base. Whatsapp is used for practically everything. Which means that Meta has access to enormous amounts of Indian customer data, for which India is not even enforcing local storage. This is true of all other Big Tech (see OpenAI's Sam Altman below): they are playing fast and loose with Indian data, which is not in India's interest at all.Data is the new oil, says The Economist magazine. So how much should Meta, OpenAI et al be paying for Indian data? Meta is worth trillions of dollars, OpenAI half a trillion. How much of that can be attributed to Indian data?There is at least one example of how India too can play the digital game: UPI. Despite ham-handed efforts to now handicap UPI with a fee (thank you, brilliant government bureaucrats, yes, go ahead and kill the goose that lays the golden eggs), it has become a contender in a field that has long been dominated by the American duopoly of Visa and Mastercard. In other words, India can scale up and compete.It is unfortunate that India has not built up its own Big Tech behind a firewall as has been done behind the Great Firewall of China. But it is not too late. Is it possible for India-based cloud service providers to replace US Big Tech like Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure? Yes, there is at least one player in that market: Zoho.Second, what are the tariffs on Big Tech exports to India these days? What if India were to decide to impose a 50% tax on revenue generated in India through advertisement or through sales of services, mirroring the US's punitive taxes on Indian goods exports? Let me hasten to add that I am not suggesting this, it is merely a hypothetical argument.There could also be non-tariff barriers as China has implemented, but not India: data locality laws, forced use of local partners, data privacy laws like the EU's GDPR, anti-monopoly laws like the EU's Digital Markets Act, strict application of IPR laws like 3(k) that absolutely prohibits the patenting of software, and so on. India too can play legalistic games. This is a reason US agri-products do not pass muster: genetically modified seeds, and milk from cows fed with cattle feed from blood, offal and ground-up body parts.Similarly, in the ‘information' industry, India is likely to become the largest English-reading country in the world. I keep getting come-hither emails from the New York Times offering me $1 a month deals on their product: they want Indian customers. There are all these American media companies present in India, untrammelled by content controls or taxes. What if India were to give a choice to Bloomberg, Reuters, NYTimes, WaPo, NPR et al: 50% tax, or exit?This attack on peddlers of fake information and manufacturing consent I do suggest, and I have been suggesting for years. It would make no difference whatsoever to India if these media outlets were ejected, and they surely could cover India (well, basically what they do is to demean India) just as well from abroad. Out with them: good riddance to bad rubbish.What India needs to doI believe India needs to play the long game. It has to use its shatrubodha to realize that the US is not its enemy: in Chanakyan terms, the US is the Far Emperor. The enemy is China, or more precisely the Chinese Empire. Han China is just a rump on their south-eastern coast, but it is their conquered (and restive) colonies such as Tibet, Xinjiang, Manchuria and Inner Mongolia, that give them their current heft.But the historical trends are against China. It has in the past had stable governments for long periods, based on strong (and brutal) imperial power. Then comes the inevitable collapse, when the center falls apart, and there is absolute chaos. It is quite possible, given various trends, including demographic changes, that this may happen to China by 2050.On the other hand, (mostly thanks, I acknowledge, to China's manufacturing growth), the center of gravity of the world economy has been steadily shifting towards Asia. The momentum might swing towards India if China stumbles, but in any case the era of Atlantic dominance is probably gone for good. That was, of course, only a historical anomaly. Asia has always dominated: see Angus Maddison's magisterial history of the world economy, referred to below as well.I am reminded of the old story of the king berating his court poet for calling him “the new moon” and the emperor “the full moon”. The poet escaped being punished by pointing out that the new moon is waxing and the full moon is waning.This is the long game India has to keep in mind. Things are coming together for India to a great extent: in particular the demographic dividend, improved infrastructure, fiscal prudence, and the increasing centrality of the Indian Ocean as the locus of trade and commerce.India can attempt to gain competitive advantage in all three ways outlined above:* Cost-leadership. With a large market (assuming companies are willing to invest at scale), a low-cost labor force, and with a proven track-record of frugal innovation, India could well aim to be a cost-leader in selected areas of manufacturing. But this requires government intervention in loosening monetary policy and in reducing barriers to ease of doing business* Customer-intimacy. What works in highly value-conscious India could well work in other developing countries. For instance, the economic environment in ASEAN is largely similar to India's, and so Indian products should appeal to their residents; similarly with East Africa. Thus the Indian Ocean Rim with its huge (and in Africa's case, rapidly growing) population should be a natural fit for Indian products* Innovation. This is the hardest part, and it requires a new mindset in education and industry, to take risks and work at the bleeding edge of technology. In general, Indians have been content to replicate others' innovations at lower cost or do jugaad (which cannot scale up). To do real, disruptive innovation, first of all the services mindset should transition to a product mindset (sorry, Raghuram Rajan). Second, the quality of human capital must be improved. Third, there should be patient risk capital. Fourth, there should be entrepreneurs willing to try risky things. All of these are difficult, but doable.And what is the end point of this game? Leverage. The ability to compel others to buy from you.China has demonstrated this through its skill at being a cost-leader in industry after industry, often hollowing out entire nations through means both fair and foul. These means include far-sighted industrial policy including the acquisition of skills, technology, and raw materials, as well as hidden subsidies that support massive scaling, which ends up driving competing firms elsewhere out of business. India can learn a few lessons from them. One possible lesson is building capabilities, as David Teece of UC Berkeley suggested in 1997, that can span multiple products, sectors and even industries: the classic example is that of Nikon, whose optics strength helps it span industries such as photography, printing, and photolithography for chip manufacturing. Here is an interesting snapshot of China's capabilities today.2025 is, in a sense, a point of inflection for India just as the crisis in 1991 was. India had been content to plod along at the Nehruvian Rate of Growth of 2-3%, believing this was all it could achieve, as a ‘wounded civilization'. From that to a 6-7% growth rate is a leap, but it is not enough, nor is it testing the boundaries of what India can accomplish.1991 was the crisis that turned into an opportunity by accident. 2025 is a crisis that can be carefully and thoughtfully turned into an opportunity.The Idi Amin syndrome and the 1000 Talents program with AIThere is a key area where an American error may well be a windfall for India. This is based on the currently fashionable H1-B bashing which is really a race-bashing of Indians, and which has been taken up with gusto by certain MAGA folks. Once again, I suspect the baleful influence of Whitehall behind it, but whatever the reason, it looks like Indians are going to have a hard time settling down in the US.There are over a million Indians on H1-Bs, a large number of them software engineers, let us assume for convenience there are 250,000 of them. Given country caps of exactly 9800 a year, they have no realistic chance of getting a Green Card in the near future, and given the increasingly fraught nature of life there for brown people, they may leave the US, and possibly return to India..I call this the Idi Amin syndrome. In 1972, the dictator of Uganda went on a rampage against Indian-origin people in his country, and forcibly expelled 80,000 of them, because they were dominating the economy. There were unintended consequences: those who were ejected mostly went to the US and UK, and they have in many cases done well. But Uganda's economy virtually collapsed.That's a salutary experience. I am by no means saying that the US economy would collapse, but am pointing to the resilience of the Indians who were expelled. If, similarly, Trump forces a large number of Indians to return to India, that might well be a case of short-term pain and long-term gain: urvashi-shapam upakaram, as in the Malayalam phrase.Their return would be akin to what happened in China and Taiwan with their successful effort to attract their diaspora back. The Chinese program was called 1000 Talents, and they scoured the globe for academics and researchers of Chinese origin, and brought them back with attractive incentives and large budgets. They had a major role in energizing the Chinese economy.Similarly, Taiwan with Hsinchu University attracted high-quality talent, among which was the founder of TSMC, the globally dominant chip giant.And here is Trump offering to India on a platter at least 100,000 software engineers, especially at a time when generativeAI is decimating low-end jobs everywhere. They can work on some very compelling projects that could revolutionize Indian education, up-skilling and so on, and I am not at liberty to discuss them. Suffice to say that these could turbo-charge the Indian software industry and get it away from mundane, routine body-shopping type jobs.ConclusionThe Trump tariff tantrum is definitely a short-term problem for India, but it can be turned around, and turned into an opportunity, if only the country plays its cards right and focuses on building long-term comparative advantages and accepting the gift of a mis-step by Trump in geo-economics.In geo-politics, India and the US need each other to contain China, and so that part, being so obvious, will be taken care of more or less by default.Thus, overall, the old SWOT analysis: strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. On balance, I am of the opinion that the threats contain in them the germs of opportunities. It is up to Indians to figure out how to take advantage of them. This is your game to win or lose, India!4150 words, 9 Aug 2025 This is a public episode.

Nachdem ich rund 30 Jahre als Betriebsrat verbracht habe und dabei Funktionen wie die des Gesamtbetriebsrats und Konzernbetriebsratsvorsitzenden innehatte, habe ich mich vor etwa 4 Jahren als Betriebsratsberater selbständig gemacht. Und natürlich, wenn Du als Selbständiger startest, kennt Dich ja erstmal niemand.  So bin ich auf die Idee mit dem 360 Grad Betriebsrats Podcast gekommen, als eine Art digitale Visitenkarte. Im Laufe der Zeit habe ich nicht nur eigene Folgen eingesungen, sondern auch mit vielen Betriebsräten in Gesprächsformaten rund um das Thema Betriebsrat viele interessante Highlights veröffentlichen können. Und immer wieder in dieser Zeit haben mich Betriebsräte angesprochen, ob nicht podcasten auch etwas für Betriebsräte selbst sein könnte. Und ob ich dazu nicht mal eine Podcast Folge machen könnte. Wie das alles so geht mit der Technik, der Konzeption und dem ganzen drumherum. Sophia Kielhorn und ihr Team des Betriebsrats von Airbus in Finkenwerder haben inzwischen über 40 Podcast Folgen veröffentlicht. Ich habe sie besucht und mit ihr von Podcaster zu Podcaster über dieses Thema gesprochen. Reinschauen!#Betriebsrat #360GradBR #Podcast

Anamaria Ungureanu: Tracking Scrum Team Behavioral Evolution Over Time Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Anamaria defines Scrum Master success by focusing on team behavioral trends and performance evolution over time. She monitors how teams increase trust with stakeholders, demonstrate commitment, and apply agile behaviors consistently. Her approach emphasizes seeking regular feedback from stakeholders and conducting honest self-assessments to ensure the Scrum Master role is truly maximizing team performance. Success isn't measured by a single moment but by sustained positive change in team dynamics and delivery capabilities. Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Stop/Start/Continue with Enhanced Focus Anamaria recommends the classic Stop/Start/Continue format but emphasizes the importance of varying the questions and bringing both quantitative and qualitative data to drive meaningful conversations. She suggests picking specific themes for each retrospective (like testing) and ensuring that discussions lead to concrete, actionable outcomes rather than just surface-level feedback. Self-reflection Question: How do you currently measure your effectiveness as a Scrum Master, and what trends in your teams indicate genuine progress versus superficial compliance?

Triển lãm hàng không và không gian Le Bourget, Paris (16 -22/06/205) một lần nữa là dịp để các công ty chế tạo máy bay giới thiệu những dự án máy bay “sạch”, tức là phát ra ít khí thải carbon gây hiệu ứng lồng kính, trong bối cảnh ngành hàng không toàn thế giới đang nỗ lực giảm thiểu tác hại đến khí hậu trên hành tinh của chúng ta.  Dragonfly: " Sạch, êm, bền" Trong số các dự án đầy tham vọng đó, có máy bay chạy bằng hydrogen như chiếc Dragonfly của Blue Spirit Aero, một công ty khởi nghiệp của Pháp, được thành lập vào năm 2020, đặt cơ sở tại khu vực Paris và Toulouse. Dragonfly là loại máy bay bốn chỗ ngồi, ban đầu dành cho các trường dạy lái phi cơ, có 12 động cơ điện, mỗi động cơ chạy bằng pin nhiên liệu hydro. Thật ra trước khi đến Le Bourget, Dragonfly, được quảng cáo là "sạch, êm, bền", đã chính thức " ra mắt thế giới" ngày 10/06/2025, tại sân bay Le Mans. Olivier Savin, người sáng lập Blue Spirit Aero, nhấn mạnh "đây là chiếc máy bay chạy bằng hydrogen đầu tiên được thiết kế từ đầu", không giống như hàng chục dự án tương tự khác đang được tiến hành trên khắp thế giới. Ông nói: "Tất cả các đối thủ cạnh tranh của tôi, vì sự tiện lợi, đều lấy một chiếc máy bay hiện có và loại bỏ động cơ thông thường để chuyển sang động cơ điện và nhiên liệu hydrogen. Tôi tin rằng điều đó không hiệu quả".  Chuyến bay thử nghiệm đầu tiên của Dragonfly được lên kế hoạch "trong những tháng tới" và ông Savin hy vọng máy bay có thể sẽ được cấp chứng nhận trong những 2027-2028, và ngay sau đó sẽ được thương mại hóa. Nhà sáng lập Blue Spirit Aero cho biết: "Chúng tôi vẫn đang tìm kiếm các nhà đầu tư". Chiếc máy bay nhỏ này sẽ có thể bay 700 km với tốc độ 230km/giờ. Nó có khả năng bay cho dù có đến 8 động cơ không hoạt động. Blue Spirit Aero ban đầu nhắm đến thị trường các trường đào tạo phi công chuyên nghiệp. Theo ông Savin, "600.000 phi công sẽ phải được đào tạo trong 20 năm tới. Vì vậy, cần phải tăng số lượng máy bay có sẵn cho các trường đào tạo và những chiếc máy bay mới này phải thân thiện với môi trường". Về lâu dài, Blue Spirit Aero có kế hoạch giải quyết vấn đề vận tải khu vực bằng máy bay 6 chỗ ngồi có tầm bay 1.000 km, hoặc thậm chí là máy bay 14 chỗ ngồi. Cũng tại Triển lãm Le Bourget 2025, LoganAir, hãng hàng không khu vực lớn nhất của Scotland, đã thông báo thiết lập quan hệ đối tác đầy tham vọng với ZeroAvia, một công ty chuyên về động cơ đẩy hydrogen-điện, đưa công nghệ này vào đội máy bay của LoganAir, đánh dấu một bước tiến đáng kể hướng tới các chuyến bay thương mại không phát thải khí carbon. Dự án chủ lực bao gồm việc sử dụng kiểu máy bay Cessna Caravan làm nền tảng thử nghiệm cho hệ thống đẩy ZA600 của ZeroAvia, một động cơ 600 kilowatt được thiết kế cho máy bay chở từ 10 đến 20 hành khách. Tham vọng của Airbus: ZEROe Những doanh nghiệp lớn hơn nhiều, như tập đoàn chế tạo máy bay châu Âu Airbus, từ lâu cũng đã theo đuổi dự án máy bay hydrogen mang tên ZEROe. Trả lời RFI Việt ngữ từ Triển lãm Le Bourget, ông Karim Mokaddem, trưởng bộ phận Nghiên cứu và Phát triển về máy bay tương lai của Airbus, cho biết: “Động cơ điện được cung cấp năng lượng từ các electron. Các electron này tạo ra điện cho động cơ điện, tạo ra lực đẩy điện không phát thải, giống như trong một chiếc ô tô điện. Với hydrogen, điểm khác biệt là các electron này không được tạo ra từ  pin như trong ô tô điện, mà được tạo ra bởi cái được gọi là pin nhiên liệu. Pin nhiên liệu này được cung cấp năng lượng bởi hydrogen, và từ hydrogen này, nó tạo ra điện, đi trực tiếp vào động cơ điện và tạo ra hệ thống đẩy điện.  Nguyên tắc là như thế. Tại sao chúng ta không sử dụng pin? Bởi vì mật độ năng lượng trên một đơn vị khối lượng của pin hiện nay có không cho phép vận chuyển một số lượng lớn hành khách trên một quãng đường rất xa. Nếu muốn làm điều này cho ngành hàng không, chúng ta buộc phải sử dụng các hệ thống dựa trên hydrogen và pin nhiên liệu.  Hydrogen là một loại nhiên liệu trong số những nhiên liệu tổng hợp. Chúng ta có thể sản xuất nó từ nước hay từ ​​nhiên liệu hóa thạch. Nhưng ý định của chúng tôi là tạo ra một loại hydrogen sạch nhất có thể, một dây chuyền sản xuất hydrogen lành mạnh. Điều đặc biệt duy nhất là nó không chứa carbon. Đó là hydrogen xanh. Tôi thường nói là nhiên liệu tiệm cận, nghĩa là khi không còn gì nữa, chúng ta vẫn có thể sản xuất nhiên liệu này từ Mặt trời và nước.  Ngày nay, lý tưởng nhất để được khả thi về mặt thương mại là máy bay có kích thước bằng một chiếc A320. Tham vọng cuối cùng của chúng tôi là như thế. Lúc đầu, chúng tôi đặt mục tiêu chế tạo một chiếc máy bay 100 chỗ ngồi và tầm bay chỉ dưới 1.800 km.”  Ban đầu Airbus dự kiến là máy bay ZEROe sẽ ra đời vào năm 2035, nhưng cuối cùng họ đã phải lùi lại thời hạn thêm 5 hoặc 10 năm nữa. Ông Karim Mokaddem giải thích lý do: “Chúng tôi đã làm việc rất nhiều về loại máy bay không phát thải này dựa trên việc sử dụng hydrogen, nhưng nay chúng tôi nhận ra rằng hệ sinh thái kinh doanh để triển khai việc sử dụng hydrogen cho máy bay mất nhiều thời gian hơn dự kiến, vì vậy chúng tôi tạm hoãn dự án này.  Thực ra, vấn đề chính là thời gian cần thiết để thiết lập hệ sinh thái. Cách đây 15 hoặc 20 năm, thị trường xe hơi cũng đã trải qua tình huống tương tự với pin. Không có đủ pin, không có trạm sạc. Mọi người đều trông cậy nhiều vào nhiên liệu hóa thạch hơn là khử ô nhiễm cho cho xe hơi. Và rồi đến một thời điểm nhất định, đã có một bước ngoặt như chúng ta đang trải qua ngày hôm nay, có nghĩa là có thêm nhiều động điện cho xe hơi và các trạm sạc pin ngày càng nhiều, và hệ sinh thái của thế giới pin điện đã phát triển. Điều tương tự sẽ xảy ra với hydrogen, nhưng sẽ mất nhiều thời gian hơn một chút để cỗ máy kinh tế này khởi động.  Chúng tôi sẽ tranh thủ thời gian này để phát triển một loại máy bay khả thi hơn về mặt thương mại, có thể chở nhiều hành khách hơn trên những quãng đường dài hơn và dựa trên pin nhiên liệu sử dụng hydrogen. Một loại máy bay khác biệt và có thể cho phép chúng tôi có vị thế tốt hơn trên thị trường so với vị thế mà ban đầu chúng tôi cho là sẽ có vào năm 2035” Những máy bay ít tiêu tốn nhiên liệu Tuy dự án ZEROe phải cần thêm từ 10 đến 10 năm, Airbrus vẫn nuôi tham vọng đứng đầu thế giới về phi carbon hóa ngành hàng không. Ngoài máy bay hydronen, tập đoàn châu Âu còn có những dự án máy bay tiêu tốn nhiên liệu ít hơn, theo lời ông Kasim Mokaddem:  « Airbus có cam kết rất mạnh mẽ là đạt được trung hòa carbon vào năm 2050. Và để đạt được điều đó, hydrogen sẽ không phải là yếu tố chính, vì hydrogen sẽ có rất ít tác động đến lượng khí thải CO2 vào năm 2050. Sẽ có tác động lớn chính là sản phẩm mà chúng tôi gọi là thế hệ máy bay một lối đi mới, tức là dòng máy bay sẽ thay thế dòng máy bay A320 hiện nay, mà chúng tôi muốn giảm mức tiêu thụ nhiên liệu từ 25 đến 30% và chúng tôi muốn sử dụng càng nhiều càng tốt nhiên liệu tổng hợp không phải là hydrogen, mà là nhiên liệu tổng hợp trong đó carbon bên trong là carbon được tái chế, do đó có lợi hơn. Và vì vậy, ngày nay chúng tôi làm việc rất nhiều về loại máy bay này. Chúng tôi đang hướng tới mục tiêu đưa nó vào sử dụng trong khoảng thời gian từ năm 2035 đến năm 2040. Chiếc máy bay này sẽ có tác động rất lớn đến cam kết của chúng tôi đạt được trung hòa carbon vào năm 2050. Nó sẽ dựa trên các vật liệu nhẹ hơn nhiều, hệ thống động cơ hiệu quả hơn nhiều và với đôi cánh hoàn toàn khác so với những gì hiện có. Loại máy bay mới này, cùng với việc đổi mới đội máy bay hiện nay bằng những chiếc máy bay hiện đại hơn, sẽ cho phép chúng tôi tiến tới mức trung hòa carbon vào năm 2050, trước khi tiến tới bước tiếp theo là mức phát thải bằng không.  Airbus có một kế hoạch phi cacbon hóa rất rõ ràng, mà chúng tôi đang triển khai. Kế hoạch này có hai thời hạn: đầu tiên là năm 2050, đạt mức trung hòa carbon, và sau năm 2050 là hướng tới máy bay không phát thải.  Chúng tôi sẽ sử dụng vật liệu composite nhiều nhất có thể. Chúng tôi đã sử dụng vật liệu composite trên chiếc A350 và đang hướng đến thế hệ tiếp theo có nhiều vật liệu composite hơn trên cánh máy bay và, tại sao không, trên các bộ phận khác của thân máy bay, như vậy sẽ làm giảm đáng kể trọng lượng và sẽ có tác động đáng kể đến hiệu suất của máy bay.

Anamaria Ungureanu: The Tech Lead Who Nearly Destroyed the Team Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Anamaria describes a seven-member software team that initially seemed engaged but began self-destructing when a senior tech lead refused to embrace transparency and knowledge sharing principles.  The situation escalated when this key team member's four-day absence completely blocked the team's ability to deliver, creating a dangerous single point of failure. Through careful retrospective facilitation and strategic motivation techniques, including offering the specialist new learning opportunities while gradually transferring their legacy knowledge to teammates, Anamaria helped the team overcome knowledge silos and establish sustainable collaboration patterns. Featured Book of the Week: Never Split the Difference by Chris Voss Anamaria recommends “Never Split the Difference” by Chris Voss, a negotiation masterpiece because it taught her essential communication strategies for establishing trust and navigating tense situations. She emphasizes that negotiation is a critical Scrum Master skill, and Voss's techniques help build rapport with stakeholders while managing difficult conversations that arise during team transformations and organizational change initiatives.

This one starts with a dodgy lane choice, a Starbucks coffee, and a misjudged underpass. As always. I'm back in the Land Rover — which might be its final podcast outing before it finds a new home — and today's episode is a rambling, reflective road trip through customer service, creative resilience, and the rapidly growing presence of AI in our industry. The day started badly. Cold shower (thanks British Gas), broken editing software, and a head full of terabytes. But it ended with a reminder of why kindness, craftsmanship, and conversation still matter. A haircut from someone I've known for 18 years. A deep chat with the owner of Michel Engineering while he lovingly took apart my ancient-but-beautiful record deck — the very same design featured in A Clockwork Orange and owned by Steve Jobs, no less. And then... a disappointing interaction with a distracted barista and a headset-wearing drive-thru operator. Same building, worlds apart. Customer service, it turns out, is alive and well — just not always where you'd expect it. But the main theme of this episode is AI. Not the doom-and-gloom kind, but the real stuff: the tools I'm already using, how they're reshaping our workflows, and how they might be reshaping entire economies. It's not AI that's coming for your job — it's the photographer who learns to harness it. We talk about: AI tools I already use (like EVOTO, Imagine AI, ChatGPT, and XCi) Using AI as a teaching assistant, sub-editor, and productivity coach The real-world implications of AI-generated ads, coding layoffs, and what it means for creatives Plans for a new AI section on masteringportraitphotography.com And if you hang in there until the end, I'll tell you about a girl named Dory, a gutsy 12-year-old contortionist, and the new edition of Mastering Portrait Photography — complete with fresh images, a decade of stories, and a very special launch offer. So pop on your headphones, admire the wheat fields if you've got them, and come along for the ride. Spoiler: there's C3PO's eye in here too. Yes, really.  

Europenii își fac calcule referitoare la taxele vamale cuprinse în acordul comercial UE-SUA. Unele industrii și companii vor pierde, altele vor câștiga. Deocamdată, însă, unele prevederi ale înțelegerii dintre cele două mari blocuri comerciale rămân în negociere. După „sublimul” acord pe tema tarifelor vamale încheiat între Uniunea Europeană și Statele Unite ale Americii, statele membre, economiile și patronatele își fac calcule cu privire la impactul pe care îl vor avea noile prevederi asupra sectoarelor economice. În Franța, Eric Lombard, ministrul economiei și finanțelor, a anunțat că va organiza întâlniri cu patronatele din diverse sectoare. Cotidianul „Les Echos” arată că vor fi industrii care vor câștiga și altele pentru care există multă incertitudine referitoare la efectele asupra companiilor. Astfel, sectorul aeronautic răsuflă ușurat. Asociația Franceză de profil salută exceptarea de la taxare după un dialog transatlantic. Măsura este logică în contextul în care în ultimii ani s-a constatat că multele dispute pe teme comerciale între Airbus și Boeing nu au dus la nimic bun pentru niciuna dintre companii. De altfel, cele două firme au pledat la unison pentru a se păstra actualul nivel de taxare, respectiv zero, un statut vamal care funcționează încă din anul 1979. Specialiștii arată că există colaborări la nivel transatlantic care au creat fluxuri comerciale echilibrate în ambele direcții. De exemplu, industria aeronautică franceză exportă aproximativ 80% din cifra de afaceri, de 51 miliarde de euro, în anul 2024, iar aplicarea unor taxe vamale ar fi fost un dezastru pentru un sector economic extrem de integrat. „Les Echos” dă exemplul unui motor de avion construit complementar de compania Safran în Franța și de General Electric în SUA și care echipează atât Airbus A320 și Boeing 737. În același timp, producătorii din sectorul aeronautic se temeau, în cazul introducerii de taxe vamale, de birocrația cu care acestea veneau la pachet, într-o industrie în care de 40 de ani nimeni nu a calculat tarife vamale. Dar, nu toate industriile sunt atât de mulțumite ca sectorul aviatic. Patronatele din industria produselor lactate sunt îngrijorate. Producătorii francezi exportă anual în Statele Unite mărfuri de 350 milioane de euro și obțin profituri bune în special la brânză. Organizațiile de afaceri din domeniu cred că un acord, chiar și cu taxe vamale, este mai bun decât un război comercial. Majoritatea marilor companii europene din industria lactatelor produc în Europa și exportă în SUA. Dar, o creștere a prețurilor pe piața americană cauzată de aplicarea taxelor vamale va pune un semn de întrebare față de comportamentul de consum, respectiv există riscul să se înregistreze o scădere a vânzărilor din cauza creșterii prețurilor. Deocamdată, acordul tarifar UE-SUA nu cuprinde decizii privind băuturile spirtoase și vinurile, dar detaliile vor fi finalizate în următoarele săptămâni. Până acum, negocierile merg în direcția de a nu taxa băuturile spirtoase, dar acest lucru va trebui confirmat. În orice caz, recent, un producător francez important în domeniul băuturilor alcoolice a calculat că aplicarea unor taxe vamale de 30% i-ar aduce pierderi de 35 milioane de euro pe an. În acest moment, sectorul vinicol este supus taxării, iar patronatele din domeniu au calculat că un nivel de 10% ar fi suportabil, dar o taxă vamală mai mare de atât ar duce la creșterea prețurilor pe piața americană. Industria cosmetică franceză și-a făcut primele calcule. Piața americană este importantă pentru companiile franceze, unde trimit 12% din totalul exporturilor, iar o taxare cu 15% va complica statutul acestor mărfuri în America. Studiile arată că există riscul unei pierderi anuale de 300 milioane de euro și cel al desființării a 5.000 de locuri de muncă în Franța. Directorul general al L Oreal, o companie importantă din industrie, a anunțat în această primăvară că ia în calcul posibilitatea relocării unei părți din producție în SUA. Desigur, calculele vor continua, fiecare sector economic va avea efecte diferite și câștiguri sau pierderi. Donald Trump a complicat viața firmelor europene care exportă în SUA, dar beneficiile americanilor legate de introducerea taxelor vamale sunt încă neclare.

Anamaria shares her experience working with a platform implementation team that appeared engaged but was actually struggling in silence. Despite initial assumptions that everything was fine, the team's quiet demeanor masked their lack of understanding about project goals and deliverables.  Through strategic intervention including goal clarification with the Product Owner, confidence level assessments, and story mapping sessions, Anamaria helped transform a disengaged team into one capable of successful delivery. Her approach emphasized the importance of fostering constructive conflict, asking open questions during sprint planning about demo expectations, and facilitating better PO-team interactions to create transparency and shared understanding.

Europa en Amerika naderen elkaar over een handelsdeal, zo melden verschillende internationale media waaronder Politico, de Financial Times en Reuters. Met die deal gaat Amerika vijftien procent aan invoerrechten heffen op Europese producten. Volgens Koen Verhelst, verslaggever internationale handel bij Politico, is dit geen overwinning voor Europa. 'Dit is slechter dan de status quo die er was.' Luister ook | Fors hoger EU-budget: ‘Je kan grote bedragen besparen als je het gezamenlijk uitgeeft’ 'Een official vergeleek het met een rotte vis die door de Amerikanen op tafel is gegooid. Het enige wat je dan doet is die rotte vis van tafel proberen te krijgen omdat je van de stank af wil, maar voor de rest los je niks op', zegt Verhelst. Ook blijven er veel dingen onduidelijk over wat er nou wel en niet onder die heffingen gaat vallen. Wel ziet het er naar uit dat onderdelen van de Franse vliegtuigbouwer Airbus welkom blijven in de VS. Lees ook | China en EU gaan samenwerken in strijd tegen klimaatverandering Gespannen relatie tussen Europa en China Europa en China vieren dat ze 50 jaar diplomatieke banden met elkaar hebben, maar eigenlijk valt er bar weinig te vieren. China houdt de export van zeldzame aardmetalen naar Europa tegen en ‘wij’ komen steeds verder achterop te liggen. Von der Leyen en Costa waren in Beijing te gast, maar eigenlijk was het de beurt aan president Xi om naar ons toe te komen, maar daar had hij geen zin in. Volgens CDA-Europarlementariër Tom Berendsen zijn we heel erg naïef geweest over China, maar de maatregelen die Europa nu neemt om zijn concurrentiepositie tegenover China te versterken gaan voor hem nog niet ver genoeg.

 Trueness hurts or is a precious gift.If you discover that your boyfriend is cheating on you… The price is high, but only so you can decide.We all get disappointed because we thought our friend is always acting in our way… And then our illusion is crumbled … And this happens in every area of our life…For instance:Through the Boeing 737 Max accidents, 347 people died… Boeing denied their responsibilities. In a bad situation, we do the same.After investigation, the Boeing 737 has aeronautical misconstructions to build a fuel-efficient aircraft that can compete with Airbus… And this misconstruction of the Boeing was compensated with a smarter software… We all try to compensate or cover up our mistakes through lying, cheating… And at the end of the day, we get crushed…  The normal regulation for simulation, worst-case scenarios had worked out for this Boeing 737. But the aeronautical misconstructions didn't work out for all situations, so the crashes happened…Also, the training for that aircraft was only 2.5 hours on an Apple tablet… After all these crashes, Boeing learned a lot and can improve the Boeing 737 Max with smarter software and additional training for the pilots…  How would it be if we are honest in the first place instead to use cover-ups, cheating…There would be no invention if there were no disappointments.And I ask myself are disappointments not really good for us…?Why should we not embrace frustration?After every frustration, I get very creative… My creativity is based on frustration…What is when a friend frustrate me? The German word is ent-täuschung for disappointingAnd the German word means the end of deception/fallacy/delusion… We discover something new that will change our lives because we have lived in an illusion about that subject… And that is good.Never the less we have to pay for that with frustration… My Video: You have to pay for your discoveries https://youtu.be/m_9QAIZPAnAMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast.B/You-have-to-pay-for-your-discoveries.mp3

Title: "Catching Up With Ken Munro After Infosecurity Europe 2025 — Hacking the Planet, One Car, One Plane, and One System at a Time"A Post–Infosecurity Europe 2025 Conversation with Ken MunroGuestsKen Munro Security writer & speakerhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ken-munro-17899b1/HostsSean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazineWebsite: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder, CMO, and Creative Director at ITSPmagazineWebsite: https://www.marcociappelli.com___________Episode SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974___________After a whirlwind week at Infosecurity Europe 2025, I had the chance to reconnect with Ken Munro from Pen Test Partners — a longtime friend, hacker, and educator who brings cybersecurity to life in the most tangible ways. From car hacking escape rooms to flight simulators in pubs, we talked about why touching tech matters, how myth-busting makes us safer, and how learning through play might just be the key to securing our increasingly complex world. Tune in, and maybe bring a cocktail.⸻There's something special about catching up with someone who's not just an expert in cybersecurity, but also someone who reminds you why this industry can — and should — be fun. Ken Munro and I go back to the early days of DEFCON's Aviation Village, and this post-Infosecurity Europe 2025 chat brought all that hacker spirit right back to the surface.Ken and his crew from Pen Test Partners set up shop next to the main Infosecurity Europe venue in a traditional London pub — but this wasn't your average afterparty. They transformed it into a hands-on hacking village, complete with a car demo, flight simulator, ICS cocktail CTF, and of course… a bar. The goal? Show that cybersecurity isn't just theory — it's something you can touch. Something that moves. Something that can break — and be fixed — before it breaks us.We talked about the infamous “Otto the Autopilot” from Airplane, the Renault Clio-turned-Mario Kart console, and why knowing how TCAS (collision avoidance) works on an Airbus matters just as much as knowing your Wi-Fi password. We also dug into the real-world cybersecurity concerns of industrial systems, electronic flight bags, and why European regulation might be outpacing the U.S. in some areas — for better or worse.One of the biggest takeaways? It's time to stop fearing the hacker mindset and start embracing it. Curiosity isn't a threat — it's a superpower. And when channeled correctly, it leads to safer skies, smarter cars, and fewer surprises in the water we drink or the power we use.There's a lot to reflect on from our conversation, but above all: education, community, and creativity are still the most powerful tools we have in security — and Ken is out there proving that, one demo and one pint at a time.Thanks again, Ken. See you at the next village — whichever pub, hangar, or DEFCON corner it ends up in.⸻Keywords: cybersecurity, ethical hacking, pen testing, Infosecurity Europe, embedded systems, car hacking, flight simulator, ICS security, industrial control systems, aviation cybersecurity, hacker mindset, DEFCON___________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Infosecurity Europe 2025 London coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/infosec25Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

Secondo l’OCSE, l’Italia ha registrato il maggiore calo dei salari reali tra tutte le principali economie avanzate: a inizio 2025, erano ancora inferiori del 7,5% rispetto al 2021. Sebbene siano stati rinnovati importanti contratti collettivi, gli aumenti non hanno compensato l’inflazione. Un lavoratore su tre è ancora coperto da un contratto scaduto. La crescita salariale reale resterà contenuta: i salari nominali aumenteranno del 2,6% nel 2025 e del 2,2% nel 2026, appena sufficienti a coprire l’inflazione prevista. Il mercato del lavoro italiano, tuttavia, mostra segnali di solidità: a maggio 2025, il tasso di disoccupazione è sceso al 6,5%, con un aumento dell’occupazione totale dell’1,7% nell’ultimo anno, trainato soprattutto dalle fasce più anziane. Tuttavia, il tasso di occupazione (62,9%) resta sotto la media OCSE (70,4%). L’inattività è calata, ma rimane elevata rispetto ad altri Paesi. L’OCSE invita l’Italia a intervenire sull’età pensionabile e a rafforzare le politiche per mantenere i lavoratori anziani nel mondo del lavoro, promuovendo formazione continua, ambienti sicuri e pensionamenti flessibili. Interviene Andrea Bassanini, relatore principale del rapporto Ocse sull'occupazione. Dazi la trattativa procede tra spiragli e nuove gelateL’amministrazione Trump minaccia nuovi dazi fino al 200% su prodotti farmaceutici e del 50% su rame. Lettere sono state inviate a numerosi Paesi, con l’UE in attesa di riceverne una. Nonostante le minacce, Bruxelles resta fiduciosa. Il commissario Maros Sefcovic ha annunciato l’estensione dello status quo fino al primo agosto, per guadagnare tempo nei negoziati. L’intesa, ancora da chiudere, potrebbe fissare un dazio-base del 10% sui prodotti europei, con possibili esenzioni per Airbus, dispositivi medici e superalcolici. Restano critici i settori farmaceutico e dei semiconduttori, finora esclusi dai dazi, ma che potrebbero essere colpiti in un secondo momento. Il confronto riguarda anche dazi su acciaio (50%), alluminio e automobili (25%). Per quest’ultimo, l’UE propone un sistema di quote e compensazioni per chi sposta la produzione negli Stati Uniti. L’Italia è tra i Paesi UE più penalizzati: i dazi medi sono passati dal 2,1% all’8%, peggio della media UE ma meglio della Germania (11%). Le differenze nei dazi dipendono dalla composizione settoriale dell’export: alcuni prodotti italiani sono colpiti più duramente di altri. Il commento è di Fabrizio Vigo, CEO e Founder di SevenData spa.Dazi la trattativa procede tra spiragli e nuove gelateLa FAI denuncia una situazione insostenibile sull’Autostrada A1, in particolare nel tratto toscano tra Incisa Valdarno e Barberino del Mugello, dove si registrano quotidiane code chilometriche che ostacolano il trasporto nazionale e internazionale. Le promesse fatte nel 2016 sull’ultimazione dei lavori non sono state mantenute: dopo quasi dieci anni, l’arteria resta incompleta. A peggiorare il quadro si aggiungono chiusure notturne frequenti e i lavori sul Viadotto dell’Indiano, che bloccano anche l’unico percorso alternativo. FAI chiede la riduzione dei cantieri nei tratti critici, l’apertura di un tavolo di confronto tra MIT, Autostrade e Regione Toscana, e maggiore tolleranza nei controlli sui tempi di guida, qualora siano documentabili ritardi dovuti al traffico. Intanto, la situazione ferroviaria non è migliore. Nell’estate 2025, sono previsti oltre 1.200 cantieri sulla rete nazionale, finanziati con fondi PNRR. La linea Milano-Genova subirà una parziale riduzione della capacità e una chiusura totale tra Pavia e Voghera dal 21 luglio al 29 agosto. Anche l’alta velocità risentirà pesantemente dei lavori, con allungamenti dei tempi di viaggio: sulla Roma-Milano fino a 4 ore e 50 minuti tra l’11 e il 17 agosto; sulla Milano-Bologna, tra l’11 e il 22 agosto, si prevedono ritardi fino a 2 ore; sulla Milano-Genova tra 20 e 60 minuti di attesa; sulla Milano-Venezia, tra il 5 e il 25 agosto, si arriverà a 90 minuti in più. La FAI si muove anche sul fronte della carenza di autisti. La segretaria Carlotta Caponi si è recata in Marocco per un’iniziativa volta a reclutare nuovi conducenti. L’autotrasporto italiano, secondo il Bollettino Excelsior di Unioncamere e Ministero del Lavoro, cerca quasi 100.000 addetti entro fine agosto, di cui 14.360 solo di autisti per veicoli industriali. Tuttavia, il 55,5% di questi profili è difficile da reperire, soprattutto per mancanza di candidati o preparazione inadeguata. Ne parliamo con Paolo Uggè, presidente Conftrasporto e Fai (Federazione autotrasportatori Italiani).

On this week's Defense & Aerospace Report Business Roundtable, sponsored by Bell, Dr. “Rocket” Ron Epstein of Bank of America Securities, Sash Tusa of the independent equity research firm Agency Partners, and Richard Aboulafia of the AeroDynamic advisory consultancy join host Vago Muradian to discuss another record Wall Street week on strong employment despite tariff turmoil as Congress hands President Trump a legislative victory that will increase US debt by more than $3 trillion dollars that in turn has contributed to the weakest dollar since the financial crisis of 1973 with the greenback down 10 percent; the administration hinted at a series of tariff deals, including with Europe that would see baseline tariffs increase by 10 percent, but that news that is causing friction among European members with France's industry and energy minister Marc Ferracci calling on union leaders to reject a deal that would force Europe to live with higher baseline tariffs; a fiscal drama in London as Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer's administration is forced by its own party to backtrack on benefits cuts, cause another bond crisis; China went on a charm offensive in Brussels, Berlin and Paris where Wang Yi also candidly admitted that China can't afford for Russia to lose in Ukraine; Washington halts aid to Kyiv by falsely claiming US weapons are running out as Germany negotiates with Washington for more weapons for Ukraine, including two Patriot batteries and interceptors as Russia steps up strikes; Germany's outspoken chief of defense, Lt. Gen. Alfons Mais, is sacked for being too blunt as Berlin prepares to order 1,000 new tanks and 2,500 armored fighting vehicles; a banner week for Airbus that sold more than $12 billion in new jets to Malaysia's Air Asia; Embraer nails a $4 billion order with SAS for 55 jets as Air France KLM takes a 60 percent stake in the carrier; and Bombardier scores a big order with an unnamed customer.

"NATO Spending just woke up" on defense, says Peter Andersen, pointing to a shift in global uncertainty and the U.S. urging Europe to bolster its own defense as catalysts. He sees the trend continuing long-term. As for stock picks, Peter sees upside potential in Rolls-Royce (RYCEY) and Airbus.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Guest Scott Hamilton is fresh from the Paris Air Show, and we talk about next-generation aircraft and engines, industry sustainability, the supply chain, and Boeing's path back. Also, an NTSB safety recommendation for the CFM Leap-1B engine, and the possibility of restarting production of the C-17. Guest Scott Hamilton Scott Hamilton is the Founder and Managing Director of Leeham Company and has spent more than four decades in the commercial aviation industry. Leeham News and Analysis has been a go-to source for spotting trends and providing verified, credible, relevant aviation news that's impartial and unbiased. Leeham Consulting Services provides expertise in several areas, including aircraft economic analysis, lease and return condition analysis and negotiations, aircraft product and strategy analysis, fleet planning and contract negotiations, market demand analysis, and MRO strategy. In our conversation with Scott, we looked at some of the technologies that may appear in next-generation aircraft. That includes ducted and unducted engines, as well as developments with geared fans. In public, the OEMs tout their own technology choices, but in reality, they are quietly working on multiple options. We touch on Boeing's ability to make the financial investment required to proceed with a single-aisle replacement, and on the company's path to recovery. Scott provides some observations on this year's Paris Air Show, including the low-key participation by Boeing. Scott offers his thoughts on electric aircraft, alternative fuels, and the airline industry goal for net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Scott's book, Air Wars: The Global Combat Between Airbus and Boeing, was published in 2021. This coming September, a sequel titled The Rise and Fall of Boeing and the Way Back will be published and available on Amazon. Follow Leham News and Analysis on X, Bluesky, and Facebook. Aviation News Boeing Calls For Next-Gen Engine Info For Future Single Aisle Boeing issued a request for information (RFI) to engine manufacturers for advanced ducted propulsion systems in the 30,000-lb-thrust class. That thrust class is suitable for powering a future single-aisle replacement for the 737. Rolls-Royce and Pratt & Whitney are likely to respond to the RFI with geared, ducted turbofans, which they are proposing to Airbus for its next-generation single aisle (NGSA). CFMI will likely respond with a ducted engine based on technology from its Revolutionary Innovation for Sustainable Engine (RISE) unducted open fan program. Engine makers tout “Plan A” but have “Plan B” backups in R&D Each engine OEM has a vision for future engines (open fan, ducted fan, geared fan), but is each company also developing an alternative at the same time? PW's sister company, Pratt & Whitney Canada, has publicly disclosed its development of an Open Fan engine for a new 70-100-seat aircraft designed by the start-up company MAEVE Aerospace. See: Maeve Redesigns Its Hybrid-Electric Regional Aircraft MAEVE Aerospace concept. NTSB issues rare safety bulletin about potential issues with Boeing 737 Max engines Two bird strike incidents in 2023 with CFMI LEAP-1B engines caused smoke to enter the ventilation system. The NTSB has issued an urgent safety bulletin, asking operators to inform flight crews of the potential hazard and calling for modifications to engine software. The NTSB notes that Boeing has revised flight manuals. GE Aerospace says it had already made changes. See: NTSB Recommends Modifications to LEAP-1B Engines The NTSB found that the engine load reduction device, or LRD, a safety feature designed to reduce the severity of vibrations transmitted from a damaged engine to the airframe, can result in damage to the engine oil system. Such a condition can allow smoke from hot oil to enter the ventilation system and ultimately the cockpit or passenger cabin. Boeing in Talks to Restart C-17 Production
