Russia’s United Engine Corporation says the domestically produced PD-8 engine has successfully passed icing tests during Superjet flights in Arkhangelsk. But certification is only part of the challenge. Scaling production will be critical, Russia would likely need to produce at least 100 of these planes annually just to begin replacing an ageing fleet still heavily reliant on Boeing and Airbus aircraft.

‼️🚨First Sukhoi Superjet-100 without western parts made its first flight! -> Now Russia has own modern jets without western parts. Hence there’s a new competitor on the market! Detail: The Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft made its first flight, the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia reported. The import-substituting board took off ahead of schedule. The flight duration was 54 minutes, it took place at an altitude of up to 3 thousand meters and a speed of up to 343 km / h. During the tests, the specialists confirmed the stable operation of all domestic systems, the controllability and stability of the aircraft in the air. Russian developers implemented and installed their own design solutions and technologies on the aircraft. In December, the United Engine Corporation announced the start of flight tests of the PD-8 engine designed for a passenger airliner. Previously, the SSJ-100 aircraft had an engine of the joint Russian-European development SaM-146, but due to sanctions, its production stopped, so we had to create a completely domestic PD-8.

Following the Delta A330-323(N813NW) engine failure after departure from São Paulo (GRU), many are asking: what actually happens if an airliner loses an engine just after takeoff? As passenger in the cabin watching this scenario unfold, the panic is understandable. Seeing flames from an engine is alarming. But this is exactly the kind of scenario pilots are trained for repeatedly in simulators. Modern multi-engine aircraft are designed to fly safely on one engine. In fact, losing one engine is a certification requirement during testing. Here’s what happens: At liftoff, pilots target V2 speed—the minimum safe speed that guarantees the aircraft can continue climbing even with one engine inoperative. If an engine fails: • The MASTER FIRE warning light will illuminate in the cockpit and the fire warning bell will sound, alerting the pilots on the affected engine (they will close the fuel, hydraulic shutoff, and engine bleed air valves, and also discharge the related fire bottle to extinguish the engine fire). Of course, they will be careful NOT TO shut down the wrong engine (this has happened before). • Maximum thrust is applied on the remaining engine. • Rudder input keeps the aircraft straight (countering asymmetric thrust) • The aircraft climbs straight ahead for best performance (turns reduce climb rate unless required) Once above a safe altitude (typically ~1,500 ft / Minimum Flap Retraction Altitude(MFRA): • The aircraft accelerates • Flaps are retracted (“cleaning up”) • Crew assesses the situation and plans a return or diversion Even at very low altitude, the aircraft remains controllable by design. It may not climb aggressively, but it will climb. Bottom line: What looks catastrophic from the cabin is a scenario pilots are highly trained to handle—and aircraft are engineered to withstand. Hope this helps any nervous flyer. Flying is safe, and the chances of this happening have reduced due to lessons learned from previous incidents. And if you ever find yourself in this situation, trust that the pilots will act according to their training—because that’s their job.

Emergency Landing at LAX Prompts Evacuation of United Flight 2127 Passengers aboard United Flight 2127 were forced to evacuate onto the runway after the aircraft made an emergency landing at Los Angeles International Airport following a midair engine issue. According to the Federal Aviation Administration, the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner departed LAX around 10:15 a.m. but turned back less than an hour later after experiencing trouble with its left engine. The plane safely touched down at approximately 11:19 a.m. local time. Emergency crews met the aircraft on the runway, where smoke was seen coming from the left engine. Firefighters appeared to hose down the engine as a precaution while passengers exited the plane using emergency slides. The Los Angeles Fire Department confirmed that no injuries were reported and no passengers required hospitalization. VIA: Breaking Aviation News & Videos

This is the most powerful commercial jet engine currently flying on an operational airliner. The GE90-115B was built by GE Aerospace specifically for the Boeing 777-300ER. It weighs around 8.3 tonnes, has a 3.25 metre wide fan and produces up to 512 kN (115,000 lbf) of thrust from a single engine. To understand the sheer scale of that output, it produces roughly 2.7 times the thrust of the F135 jet engine powering the F-35, the most powerful fighter engine currently in service. The enormous fan at the front uses just 22 carbon fibre composite blades with titanium leading edges. At maximum thrust, it pulls in roughly 1.4 tonnes of air every second, with nearly 90% bypassing the core rather than passing through the combustor. At around 150 knots during takeoff, its 512 kn of thrust corresponds to roughly 39.5 MW of propulsive power, or in automotive terms around 53,000 hp from one engine. And it burns roughly 4-5 kg of jet fuel every second at maximum power conditions. Two of these engines are enough to power a fully loaded 777-300ER weighing more than 350 tonnes. Even if one engine fails after the critical point during takeoff, the aircraft is certified to continue the takeoff and climb on the remaining one GE90 engine. Each engine costs around $35-40 million. More than 2,500, GE90s engines have been built, and the GE90 family has accumulated nearly 130 million flight hours. And this is precisely why companies like GE Aerospace remain so difficult to displace in jet engines. There is never one breakthrough. GE spent roughly $2+ billion developing the GE90, chasing small gains across hundreds of systems, efficiency, materials, reliability and component life.

Today, this video shared as Angara Airlines An-24 crash Near Tynda, Russia. Claiming All 48 Lives On Board But the real story of this video is below: An Ilyushin Il-112V military transport aircraft prototype crashed in a forested area near Kubinka Air Base, Russia, killing all three people on board. The aircraft took off from Zhukovsky International Airport near Moscow at 10:35 local time, landed at Kubinka Air Base at 11:09, and then departed for a test flight at 11:14. Four minutes into the test flight, the crew reported a fire in the no.2 (right) engine. Video evidence of the flight’s final moments shows the aircraft with a severe fire in the no.2 engine, gradually rolling to the right while losing altitude. The nose then pitched down, and the aircraft rolled inverted at low altitude before crashing into trees and erupting in flames.
