The Airbus Primary Flight Display (PFD) features a "rising ground" depiction (also known as terrain or brown/green topographical mapping) on the attitude director indicator (ADI). This provides pilots with improved situational awareness by visually representing rising terrain relative to the aircraft’s current altitude. During the final phase of an approach, as the aircraft descends closer to the ground, the lower portion of the display (representing terrain) gradually rises upward on the PFD. This "rising ground" effect delivers immediate, intuitive visual feedback about the aircraft’s proximity to the terrain, especially useful in low-visibility conditions. This rising ground presentation is driven by radio altimeter data, which measures the aircraft's height directly above the ground (or terrain/runway below). It is available during any type of approach (e.g., ILS, RNAV, visual, etc.).

This is a great example of how pilots deal with a low visibility landing during a Category 3 “autoland” approach in fog. It is required because of the reported visibility. EVERYTHING is briefed including all contingencies well before we start the descent. The automation is doing the work while the pilots back it up. Low Visibility taxi also has to be pre briefed because you might only have 75m visibility on the ground. Safe on deck in Delhi. 📸 by ig/grboettger

WHY THE BOEING 787-10 IS THE LEAST POPULAR DREAMLINER VARIANT Despite being the largest member of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner family, the 787-10 accounts for just under 11% of total orders, far behind the 787-8 and 787-9. According to Boeing data, the 787-10 carries the most passengers (336) but has the shortest range at 6,330 nautical miles, compared with 7,305 nmi for the 787-8 and 7,565 nmi for the 787-9. To reduce development costs, Boeing retained the same 60-meter wing and landing gear as the smaller variants. However, the much longer fuselage (68 m vs. 63 m on the -9 and 57 m on the -8) results in less fuel capacity relative to its size, limiting long-haul range. This positions the 787-10 in a narrow market segment and in direct competition with aircraft like the Airbus A350-900, while the more versatile 787-9 continues to dominate Dreamliner orders. Boeing is now exploring MTOW increases and structural improvements that could add roughly 500 nautical miles of range, potentially improving the aircraft’s competitiveness.

#WATCH | Delhi: On an Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner grounded after pilots reported a possible defect in the fuel control switch, Former Flight Operations Inspector with DGCA, Captain Prashant Dhalla says, "Yet again the Boeing 787 has come into the limelight. It is horrific. We were just trying to analyse the preliminary report of the Boeing 787 Air India crash on 12th June. Lately till yesterday, we got to know that another Boeing 787 in the pilot defect report, which is part of the technical log book of the aircraft, the pilot in command has given a noting which is in black and white, which clearly states that the fuel control switch, which is one of the most essential switches in the Boeing 787, has faltered, has misbehaved and it is quite appalling as an aviator that the same switch was part of an inquiry report which led to the Air India crash. We must understand that this fuel control switch is guarded by the manufacturer, has misbehaved. In this particular instance, the operator, the regulator and the manufacturer, all three of them have to introspect. The country cannot take this lightly..."

Midnight’s controls are innovative and simple, using two side sticks to control altitude, speed, and direction during flight. Think of it like manual vs automatic in cars. Because Midnight is fly-by-wire, software translates the pilot's movements with the sticks to automatically transition between flight modes, smoothly speed up or slow down, and hold the aircraft's position, airspeed, and direction. This allows pilots to focus more on the flight, not the mechanics of commanding several different control surfaces all at once.

End of an era✈️ According to posts from several White House staff members, USAF VC-25A serial 92-9000 may have carried the President of the United States for the final time during the return flight from the G7 Summit. The iconic aircraft, a heavily modified Boeing 747-200B, first flew in 1987 and entered presidential service in 1990, becoming one of the most recognizable aircraft in the world. Its successor, the Boeing VC-25B Bridge — a former Qatar Amiri Flight Boeing 747-8 — is expected to begin presidential operations as early as next month.

Ever noticed how the Boeing 787’s wings bend dramatically upwards in flight? ✈️ That’s the power of composite materials — their elasticity allows for pronounced positive dihedral in the air, supporting the plane’s weight efficiently. On landing, the wings return to a near-neutral position as they yield to the landing gear.
