Like with all of its families, Airbus has designed and manufactured several variants of the A321-100 . The first variant was the A321. Also known as the stretched A320, it lives up to its namesake by featuring a longer design than the original A320. The A321’s fuselage is nearly 23 feet longer than the original A320’s fuselage, thus allowing it to accommodate more passengers. #commercialpilottraining #pilotinmaking #airlinepilottraining #indianaviation #howtobeapilot #becomingapilot #aviationindia #travellife #aviationgeek #twinengine #airlinepilot #views #aviationlovers #aviationgeek #aviationdaily #aviation4u #travelphotography #pilotlife #sunrise #travelgram #boeing

History of Flight – 2011, the P&M Aviation Quik GTR, an ultralight trike flexwing. The latest post in my personal weekly history of flying aircraft (that I have photographed) is the &M Aviation Quik GTR an ultralight trike. Another of those ultralight trikes/flexwings that seem to be a cross between a powered hang glider and a motor scooter. Designed to comply with Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight, it is actually quite a decent machine. A pilot and passenger, and actual cockpit, which although open is a major improvement from gangling beneath a canvas or nylon covered wing on several bits of string. It also has recognisable controls. It performs well too with a 104mph top speed.   The original ‘Pegasus’ company was combined with Mainair Sports in 2003, (to form P&M), however this company went into administration in 2019. At some point the assets were purchased by the Indian company Albatross Flying Systems of Bangalore which now sells the Aviation Quik as a kit of parts for building at home.   I don’t know how many have been built, and I have only come across the one recognisable machine. In principle this could be a wonderful way to fly – definitely getting the wind in ones hair (well apart from the helmet of course). #aviation #aircraft #history #business Photos: ©2024 Pete Jenkins History of Flight – 2011 the P&M Aviation Quik GTR, an ultralight trike flexwing

Lilium secures key commercial aircraft requirement from EASA 🚁 Lilium has received Design Organization Approval (DOA) from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). The DOA confirms that Lilium's organization, procedures and capabilities meet the stringent safety and regulatory standards for the development of Part-21 commercial aircraft. The award establishes Lilium as qualified to design and hold a type certificate for aircraft developed according to EASA's SC-VTOL rules. More details > > https://hubs.la/Q02bkGLJ0 Klaus Roewe, Lilium CEO, said; “In many respects, today’s announcement marks a cornerstone for Lilium and evidences our market leadership in advancing the aviation industry. Achieving Design Organization Approval reflects EASA’s confidence in Lilium and differentiates us against others currently pursuing eVTOL development and regulatory approval. While we join a small, select group of companies qualified to develop commercial aircraft, today’s announcement is especially significant for the global aviation industry as we are doing so by advancing sustainable regional air mobility. I appreciate the many Lilians and countless stakeholders who have played a pivotal role in us achieving today’s milestone, and we look forward to further advancements toward the commercialization of the Lilium Jet. I would like to thank our counterparts at EASA for their professional cooperation, which I believe will continue to be very beneficial for the industry moving forward.” #advancedairmobility #aam #evtol #aircraft #airtaxi #aviation #flight #transport #aerospace #electric

Curious to see how Airbus sees #aviation after 2035? The #aircraft manufacturer released a video of their 2035+ vision.   Besides their long-term vision, they also set three goals to reach in 2025:   1️⃣ Provide full transparency on the environmental impact of cabin parts and operations. 2️⃣ Offer reduced CO2 emission cabin options and more efficient cabin operations. 3️⃣ Establish a framework for cabin end-of-life management and first solutions.   Airbus states that the Airspace Cabin Vision 2035+ is about reimagining the future #travel experience. You are “invited to envision a future of flying that prioritises #sustainability while maintaining superior levels of comfort.”
