Well researched & filled with details makes this among the better, & highly recommended, reads RE Boeing . The example illustrating the pitfalls of outsourcing engineering & production of critical components to Aerojet Rocketdyne in the post-McDonnell Douglas (McD) merger era is among the highlights. The risks & impacts of its fixed-priced contracts is also instructive. Can’t recommend this article enough! Note to #avgeeks: article focuses on #boeing’s (long troubled) Starliner program. However, the issues identified & overall analysis applies across Boeing’s divisions. #aerospace #aerospaceindustry #aerospaceengineering #space #airlines #airlinesandairplanes #aviation #business #management #investors #investing #finance #assets #assetfinance #aircraft #aircraftleasing #aircraftmanagement SpaceX

**GE Aerospace Achieves Breakthrough in Hypersonic Technology** =========================================================== GE Aerospace has successfully developed and tested a new hypersonic dual-mode ramjet, marking a significant milestone in the pursuit of advanced propulsion systems. The innovative design combines the efficiency of a ramjet with the versatility of a scramjet, enabling it to operate at high speeds and altitudes. This technology has far-reaching implications for future space exploration, defense, and commercial applications. The test of the dual-mode ramjet was conducted in a controlled environment, simulating the extreme conditions of hypersonic flight. The results demonstrate the system's ability to operate efficiently and effectively in these conditions. GE Aerospace's achievement is a testament to the company's commitment to innovation and its expertise in developing cutting-edge propulsion systems. #HypersonicTechnology #Aerospace #GEAerospace #DualModeRamjet #Innovation #SpaceExploration #Defense

Wernher von Braun, a pioneering aerospace engineer, played a pivotal role in developing rocket technology that shaped both World War II and the space race. As the architect of the Saturn V rocket, his work helped land humanity on the Moon, but his legacy remains complex due to his involvement with the Nazi regime and the use of forced labor in the V-2 rocket program. #wernhervonbraun #nasahistory #saturn5rocket #saturn5 #nazism #history #aviationhistory #aeronauticshistory #lift #liftdragthrust #flight #flightmechanics #i̇nstagramgrowth #explore #igreach #ınstagramhacks #engineering #engineer #aviation #aeronautics #aerospace #aerospaceengineering #aeronauticalengineering #aviation #aviationlovers #aviationdaily #aviators #aeroaimers #aeroaimersjmi #jamiamilliaislamia

Check out the recent article in the Aerospace and Defense Technology magazine, describing our recent collaboration with Space Forge! In here, we discuss how the ForgeStar® program uses our MEMS-based accelerometer to measure microgravity for In-space manufacturing. The article details the challenges of operating in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and showcases how the CAS291 can be used in this environment.   If you are interested in learning more, you can find the article here: https://lnkd.in/gui46XSP SAE Media Group #space #aerospace #engineering #MEMS

Today, I had the pleasure of attending a fantastic webinar, where David Canada from Boeing and Dwight D. Deneal of NASA shared invaluable insights. One key takeaway was the importance of understanding what your small business is great at doing...and marketing those strengths towards aerospace and defense organizations. Additionally, being able to talk about your past performances and how those experiences translate to the aerospace industry is crucial. Many different processes are required to successfully complete a mission, which means there are plenty of opportunities for small businesses like Plan and Process Consultancy! #Aerospace #Defense #Engineering #Innovation #IndustryTrends #Networking #PlanandProcessConsultancy #Boeing #NASA

The F-35 program, which is the United States Department of Defense's (DOD) most ambitious and costly weapon system, is estimated to cost over $2 trillion to buy, operate, and sustain over its lifetime. These costs are largely made up of development and procurement costs which comprise $442 billion. The sustainment costs, also referred to as operating and support costs, comprise the other $1.58 trillion. The sustainment cost estimates have increased 44 percent, from about $1.1 trillion in 2018 to about $1.58 trillion in 2023. The DOD currently estimates the United States Air Force will pay $6.6 million annually to operate and sustain each individual aircraft. This continues to be well above the $4.1 million original target. The HYPERLiner (TM) is manufactured and operates at a fraction of the F-35 costs. #hyperfast #HYPERIANAerospace #airsupremacy #NGAD #hypersonic #missiles #usnavy #airforce #usarmy #spaceforce #HYPERJet #HYPERMissile #HYPERBomber #HYPERLiner #hydrogen #aerospace #spaceflight #airsuperiority #NASA #BLACKSTAR
