Patria Aviation OY has made a significant stride in aviation technology, marking a milestone with the recent European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for the Astronautics’ AFI4700 RoadRunner Electronic Flight Instrument (EFI) on Bell 212/412EP helicopters. This article delves into the implications of this certification, the benefits of the RoadRunner EFI, and what this means for helicopter operators globally. #FIA2024 #aerobernie https://lnkd.in/eYXzADSh

🚁🔥✈️FUN FACT FRIDAY!!✈️🔥🚁 It’s that time of the week again! ✈️ We’re back with some more crazy fun facts about aviation that you’ll wish you knew sooner! 🚀 FUN FACT #1 Scared of flying? You’re not alone: 80% of the world’s population is afraid of flying — so-called aerophobia 🛫 FUN FACT #2 Up to now, 5.6 Billion people have travelled on a Boeing 747 aircraft! ✈️ FUN FACT #3 Pigeons have saved lives: 🐦 The Coast Guard trained pigeons to assist in finding people lost at sea. They sat in a dome attached to a helicopter, pressing a lever after spotting life preservers or debris. They had a 90% success rate in initial trials. FUN FACT #4 The concept of a helicopter dates back to the 15th century when Leonardo da Vinci sketched out ideas for a flying machine that resembled a modern-day helicopter. 🚁 FUN FACT #5 95% of the world’s population has never been on a flight. That means 7,410,000,000 people have never boarded an airplane. ✈️ You learn something new everyday! 🔥 #aviation #FUNFACTS #aviationfacts #Boeing747 #helicopterfacts #FUNFACTFRIDAY

Textron Aviation's Cessna Citation Ascend is making strides with the successful flight of its second prototype, following the debut of the P1 aircraft in 2023. Certification is on track for the business jet, set to enter service in 2025, boasting advanced features like Pratt & Whitney engines and Garmin avionics.

This Picture is quite Accurate I Started my first flight training back in 2017 with Piper Archer TX G1000 which equipped with fancy Garmin G1000 Instrument. Then in 2019 i started my first Professional Career in Aviation with one of the Narrow body legend in aviation history, B737-300 that equipped with Full Analog instrument. Though some of them already equipped with EFIS (EADI and EHSI), but it's still need a bit of work to adapt with those instrument. That's how i Found that the basic T scanning is so important, it does helps a lot to adapt

Did you know the effective angle of attack is key to safe and efficient flight? Effective Angle of Attack The effective angle of attack (AoA) is a crucial concept in aviation. It refers to the angle between the chord line of an aircraft's wing and the oncoming airflow. Maintaining the correct AoA is essential for safe flight, as it directly affects lift and stall conditions. Pilots monitor the AoA to ensure optimal performance, especially during critical phases like takeoff and landing. Mastering AoA awareness can significantly enhance flight safety and efficiency, making it a fundamental skill for any aviator.

For a bit of a change, these drawings were made using the “blind drawing” technique (try it…it can be discouraging until you’ve practiced…but the results can be interesting!). What aircraft is this? Going counterclockwise from the lower left, the aircraft is being readied by the ground crew, is taxiing out, taking off, and refueling in mid-air. What’s missing from this plane? How might it fly? What is its mission? We address all these questions in our classes! #flightcontrols #blinddrawing #aeronautics #aircraftsystems #aviationhistory #aviationhistoryanddoodles

Did you know that not all helicopters can fly at night? Having a twin engine opens up a whole new world of possibilities, allowing you to fly through the night with confidence.
