The Forbidden Skies: Unveiling the Mysterious Regions Planes Avoid" Why do planes take the long way around? There are certain areas on our planet that are deemed no-fly zones for aircraft. From severe weather conditions to restricted military zones, these regions pose significant risks to flight safety. Let's explore the fascinating reasons behind these in-flight detours! #aviation #mystery #flightroutes

Do you know the story behind the first Air Force One? The aircraft – Columbine II, a Lockheed Constellation VC-121-A – was the first aircraft given the now-famous call-sign while flying President Dwight Eisenhower in 1953. Learn more about the history behind the airplane often affectionately referred to as “America’s business aircraft.” See link for a great video from the #NBAA #bizav #businessaviation #airtravel #aircraft #aviation

It is interesting to see people reacting to a flight incident that could happen to any plane, #Boeing or not. It is also interesting to see how the media exaggerates a lot of what goes on around us without an actual proper analysis of the causes of the problem. The news are interested in interviewing people to keep the news cycle going and the stock prices. It looks like Boeing has issues that it needs to deal with. No one is analyzing these issues. Boeing is definitely not talking about it. If it did talk about it in 2018 & 2019 maybe we won't be here! That was my observation then and it is still the same now. #Safety starts with transparency. Go back to the basics and focus on "What" is right as opposed to "Who" is right. Even if that who is a VP or a CEO of a major company. Safety must come first and something needs to be done now. Actually something should have been done 10 years ago since this is related to strategy decisions that were taken around a decade ago! The interesting point in that interview is the #DEI concept mentioned by Mr. Poli. Smart observation and spot on on a matter that will have huge safety effects in many fields simply because it does not make any sense. No one talks about it because it is not politically correct! But this guy did and he is right. Kudos to #FabrizioPoli #safetyculture #aviationindustry #strategy #boeing

Today marks 97 years since a remarkable achievement in aviation history. On 20 May, at 7:40 AM local time, Charles Lindbergh embarked on the first-ever solo non-stop transatlantic flight! ✈️🌍 Charles had prepared for this feat well in advance. Just a day before, he conducted a trial eight-hour flight from San Diego to Saint Louis. The following day, he took off in the Spirit of St. Louis, a plane funded by sponsors, from the now-defunct Roosevelt Airfield in Garden City (Long Island, New York). His journey to Paris took an impressive 33.5 hours. For his achievement, he was awarded the Legion of Honour by French President Gaston Doumergue and was received at Buckingham Palace by King George V of Great Britain. In the USA, President Calvin Coolidge honoured Lindbergh with the Distinguished Flying Cross and appointed him a colonel in the Air Force. 🏅👑 Today, solo flights in piston aircraft over such long distances remain a remarkable achievement and the fulfilment of many people's dreams. However, as many as 2,000-3,000 jets cross "the pond" daily. The Atlantic Ocean is divided into six zones known as Oceanic Control Areas (OCA) and the management of oceanic traffic is almost a separate industry. The rise of stallite navigation and modern ways of tracking the position of aircraft as well as communicating between pilots and Air Traffic Control (CPDLC - Controller Pilot Data Link Communications and ADS - Automatic Dependent Surveillance) make it much easier today, but the need to safely separate such huge amounts of traffic with no radar or VHF-radio coverage, and the fact that aicraft fly so far away from any airport, still make the Atlantic Ocean a very special place for aviation. 🌍✈️ #CharlesLindbergh #AviationHistory #SpiritOfStLouis #TransatlanticFlight #ShanwickOCA #AviationLegends

Airships: The Comeback We've Been Waiting For? An Airship: the number one sign that you’re in an alternate universe, or a Miyazaki movie. While they may seem like a bad idea, because they’re not as fast as planes or as powerful as freighters, airships actually sit in a goldilocks zone in between them. There are some interesting benefits that innovators are trying to tap into by applying new technology to these old machines. Are these giants from a bygone era really ready to make a comeback and impact our lives? Are Zeppelins the first step in the Stairway to Heaven? Or is this just another billionaires pipe dream? #undecided #aviation #aviationlovers #newinventions

Flying different models of the same aircraft may come with surprises, especially when operating flaps. Learn more about the difference in King Air flaps in this article by Tom Clements of King Air Academy: https://buff.ly/41Z6B2k 📷 : @textronaviation #KingAir #KingAirNation #Beechcraft
