Goodyear Blimp Columbia N4A at McNary Field in Salem, Oregon September 1978.
I shot this on Eastmancolor 5247 film, which faded badly over the decades. But modern color restoration software made it look good as new with just a few clicks. I'm quite pleased with the result, which is now part of my online gallery.
So, as Boeing stumbles under the weight of its own (fatal) mistakes, and Airbus struggles to keep up with the resulting pivot in demand, Brazilian Embraer is now (perhaps unsurprisingly) exploring entering the segment of the market for commercial jets that for so long as been an effective duopoly of Boeing & Airbus.
Embraer is already the third largest global manufacturer of jet aircraft & dominates the market fr regional jets.... one firms mistake is another's opportunity!
Man the Midwest has been hammered today with tornadoes. At Omaha’s Eppley Airfield (KOMA), what looks like at least four rows of T-Hangers took a direct hit from an EF2, and wiped dozens of airplanes off the FAA registry. Man I am sad for the owners, no idea if there were injuries.
Screengrabs from #wunderground, just look at the tornado warnings!
Emma Lilian Todd (1865-1937) was a self-taught inventor who liked to take things apart and put them back together to see how they worked.
A lawyer and a clerk in the US patent Office, she would type up patent applications, and she learned what worked, and what didn’t work.
Inspired by airships she saw on a trip, Todd began creating designs around 1903, trying & eliminating different features until she successfully designed a working #aircraft that improved upon the Wright brothers' model.
Japan has unveiled a new vision for developing its next-generation in-house passenger jet. After delays and a troubled setback last year when a privately-led venture was discontinued, the new project marks a nationwide effort spearheaded by both the public and private sectors.
This cutting-edge aircraft aims to incorporate “new environmental technologies” like hydrogen fuel or hybrid-electric propulsion systems.
