South Korean investigators have suggested that the Jeju Air plane involved in December's deadly crash could have continued flying for longer, despite damage to its engines due to a bird strike. :: Lee ...

A modern jet engine is a complex mechanical wonder. However, these aren't engines that will just roar into action with the turn of a key or the press of a button. Often, turbine engines will need ...

Rim-driven thrusters turn the normal propeller-motor arrangement inside out; rather than mounting the motor at the center of ...

Bob Maddox’s stage name, Crazy Rocketman, is a misnomer. Maddox doesn’t build rockets. He builds pulse-jet engines. There’s a difference. As for the crazy part—that may be true. Maddox is the world’s ...

Five years ago, in 2021, American space agency NASA announced it is working on yet another project that doesn’t involve, well, space: the Hybrid Thermally Efficient Core (HyTEC). Since then, NASA’s ...

You could call it a temple of thrust -- a building designed to handle the massive thrust these engines can kick up. Walls 3 feet thick and giant doors weighing hundreds of thousands of pounds enclose ...

Perhaps not as visible as their counterparts doing business in the automotive industry, aviation startups are just as numerous. Some of them are proposing outlandish ideas that will probably never ...

GE Aerospace reported that it has conducted more than 3 million hours of supercomputing simulations during the past three years in its effort to define new commercial jet engine technology. It is ...

GE Aviation in Cincinnati has been awarded four contract actions, valued at $707 million for jet engine work, winning the contract from the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Wright-Patterson ...
