A flexible composite airfoil is an advanced wing design that can physically change its shape depending on the aircraft's angle of attack-the angle between the wing and the oncoming air. Unlike traditional rigid wings, these airfoils are built using lightweight composite materials that can bend and adapt in real...

The Airbus A350 is, without question, the most beautiful airliner gracing the skies today. A masterpiece of modern engineering and design, it combines elegance with efficiency. From every angle, the A350 is perfectly proportioned. Its long, graceful fuselage flows seamlessly into a set of gently curved wings that flex in flight like a bird in motion—an iconic silhouette that instantly sets it apart. The wingtips, with their signature upturned ‘sharklets,’ don’t just look stunning—they whisper of aerodynamic excellence and fuel-saving innovation. Its nose profile is distinctive yet refined, with a gentle curvature and a cockpit visor that gives the aircraft a futuristic, almost predatory presence. And unlike many other widebodies, the A350’s fuselage length is in perfect harmony with its wing span and tail height—there’s a visual symmetry that makes it appear poised, balanced, and utterly graceful, whether taxiing on the tarmac or soaring above the clouds. But it’s not just a pretty face. The A350 is a triumph of technology—built from over 50% carbon-fibre-reinforced composite, powered by next-generation Rolls-Royce Trent XWB engines, and brimming with advanced systems that make it one of the most efficient and capable long-haul aircraft ever built. In an age where function often overrides form, the A350 is a rare exception—a true flying work of art that proves beauty and brains can coexist. 📸 by ig/captainchris Not an ad

#PLA #China #Japan #Korea #Guam #India #Hypersonic The Chinese 6th generation fighter is a high-quality reverse engineering of the American 6th generation fighter project from Lockheed Martin as part of the NGAD (Next-Generation Air Dominance) program. The Chinese Air Force has begun flight tests of a 6th-generation stealth fighter designed using a "flying wing"/"tailless" configuration without the usual vertical and horizontal all-moving tail fins typical of 4th and 5th generation aircraft. The machine is stabilized in flight thanks to an advanced computerized fly-by-wire control system with multiple backup systems, which controls the wing mechanization on the trailing edge. The design has a huge resemblance to that of the Lockheed project under the NGAD program. It is worth noting that the visible length of the glider can vary from 22.5 to 25 - 27 m, while the wingspan reaches an incredible 18 - 19 m. Obviously, the normal takeoff weight of such a machine can reach 33 - 37 tons, the maximum - 43 - 47 tons. The payload in the internal weapons compartments is up to 10 - 12 tons. The estimated volume of the fuel system can reach 17-18 tons, and the combat radius of action up to 2500-2700 km. The effective reflective surface of this machine can vary from 0.05 to 0.15 sq. m The configuration of the onboard radar of the Chinese 5th generation fighter is almost identical to that of the Russian Su-57. On the side forming the nose of the fuselage, one can pay attention to 2 X-band side-looking AESA modules, similar to the N036B-1-01L and N036B-1-01B modules of the Belka onboard radar system. These canvases provide radar reconnaissance in SAR mode at distances of up to 150-200 km, as well as the ability to detect air targets in the lateral and rear hemisphere Evgeniy Damantsev

🚨 Comunicazione inviata a tutti gli accreditati FIA Hi all, please find below a statement regarding rear wing deflection tests: "As has been previously communicated, between the end of the 2024 season and the start of the 2025 season, the FIA exercised the authority it is granted under Article 3.15.1 of the Technical Regulations to introduce either new or more challenging load-deflection tests for the front wing (from Race 9, Spanish Grand Prix), the upper rear wing, and the beam rear wing. In addition, the FIA requested to the teams to use cameras in Free Practice Sessions to monitor the on-track deformations exhibited by the cars during the Australian Grand Prix. Having analysed footage from the rear wing deformations combined to the static deflections measured inside the FIA garage in Melbourne, the FIA has concluded that sufficient grounds exist for a tougher test to be introduced from the forthcoming Chinese Grand Prix on the upper rear wing. More specifically, Article 3.15.17, introduced in 2025, states that if 75Kg of vertical load is applied on either extremity of the rear wing mainplane, the distance between the mainplane and the flap (also known as “slot gap”) must not vary by more than 2mm. From the forthcoming Grand Prix in Shanghai, this limit will be reduced to 0.5mm. Due to the short notice for Shanghai only a tolerance of 0.25mm will be added to this new limit. The Teams were informed of this revised test early Monday 17th of March. The FIA wishes to further confirm that during the Melbourne event all cars tested against the requirements of Article 3.15.17 and found to comply, therefore all cars raced in Melbourne were deemed to be legal.". Che esclusiva ! 🤣 #F1 #FIA #Statement
