Many aerospace companies utilize newer engines to power their aircraft, but one has stood the test of time so well that ...

Activity is burgeoning in a long-neglected portion of the turbofan engine sector with the rise of a new category of jet-powered, autonomous warplanes. In the past month, the U.S.' ...

A year ago, Herakles (Safran) achieved a world first in commercial aircraft design when it developed an engine fitted with an exit cone made from ceramic matrix composites (CMCs), new variants of ...

A closer look at how one key design choice from the 1960s still impacts the Boeing 737's performance today.

Rolls-Royce's Trent 900 didn't force an A380 redesign; it defined it. See how that legacy is shaping the future of cleaner flight.

The aircraft and engine were designed with exclusivity for each other.

Derived from an iconic airframe, the 747SP redefined long-haul travel.

Aircraft piston engine cylinders are a common failure point due to their design, experiencing issues such as cracks, valve failures, and head/barrel separation. Excessive heat is the primary cause of ...

The Air Force’s program to replace the B-52H Stratofortress’s 1960s-era engines cleared its critical design review, the service announced May 4.

You see a plane, you expect to hear an engine. But gliders are a different breed of aircraft, representing flight in its purest form. They are frankly a testament to just how far clever engineering ...
