Royal NLR

Embraer has signed agreements with Dutch companies to support the country’s acquisition of C-390 Millennium airlifters.

As artificial intelligence grows more omnipresent for tasks like engine inspections, industry players ponder how it can be brought up to human levels.

Performance goals for the next generation of aircraft will benefit from progress in measurement techniques and a drive to increase investments in test centers.

The advancement of hydrogen and electric propulsion research at Royal NLR comes as several Netherlands-based companies are designing new-generation aircraft.

H3 Dynamics will supply fuel cells to a project developing a modular, distributed hybrid hydrogen-electric propulsion system for future regional aircraft

Distributed-propulsion testbed flies; Airbus hydrogen APU demo; uncrewed delivery corridor; another Chinese eVTOL; and Wright’s megawatt-scale electric engine.

Two-thirds of Europe’s Clean Aviation research projects are focused on more sustainable advanced propulsion technologies for service entry in the mid-2030s.

Europe’s distributed-propulsion demo; cryocompressed hydrogen; uncrewed cargo eVTOL.

The aftermarket’s interest in artificial intelligence has recently exploded, but will the hype drive its implementation in MRO?

Hydrogen and electric propulsion, robotics and drone-enabled inspections create challenges and opportunities in MRO.
