The project uses the Arcus-J, a modified glider powered by a hydrogen-fueled turbojet, to explore how hydrogen propulsion can reduce aviation emissions and environmental impact. As part of Airbus' broader mission to achieve zero-emission aviation by 2035, the campaign focuses on the relationship between hydrogen-powered flight and contrail formation, aiming to inform future aircraft designs and sustainability strategies. https://lnkd.in/dK-6wXti

Hanneke Weitering wrote a great FutureFlight Aviation International News roundup of the state of hydrogen in aviation, and it looks like there's a lot of progress being made by engine makers: https://lnkd.in/eU_w3HN6 #aviation #technology

Did you see the news about Deutsche Aircraft's successful test flight of the D328 UpLift using 100% synthetic fuel? This is a major step forward in sustainable aviation. What are your thoughts on the future of sustainable aviation fuels? #aviation #aerospace #engineering #technology #innovation #sustainableaviation #syntheticfuel #climatechange #cleanenergy #futureofaviation

One the best explanation and most informed explanations that I have heard on the route through pressurised hydogren through to liquid hydrogen. Well done to Cranfield Aerospace Solutions. Aviation is here to stay, we are not going to go back years in terms of reliance on surface transport. We are now part of connected world around which our entire economies rely. Protecting the planet has to be done with considered innovation, not sticking our head in the sand and acting like luddites.

The **Airbus ZEROe** concept planes were officially unveiled on **September 21, 2020**. These concepts represent Airbus's ambition to launch the world's first zero-emission commercial aircraft by 2035, powered by hydrogen as a primary energy source. The designs include various configurations, such as turboprop, turbofan, and blended-wing body concepts, aimed at demonstrating the versatility and potential of hydrogen technology in aviation. 🌱 🌱

Stralis Aircraft (YC W23) and CQUniversity are developing a #hydrogen-electric aircraft to demonstrate decarbonisation in aviation. The aircraft, aiming to fly from Gladstone to Brisbane, will be manufactured in Queensland.

The advantages of hydrogen-powered aircraft: Cranfield Aerospace Solutions presents the latest video in our engineering and technology series, focusing on the advantages of hydrogen-powered aircraft. Our Chief Strategy Officer Jenny Kavanagh dives into the benefits of hydrogen as a fuel source and explains why starting with gaseous hydrogen is crucial for entry-level applications, while liquid hydrogen holds the key to truly decarbonising aviation. Watch the video to find out why starting small is key to driving regulations required to understand how to use hydrogen as an aviation fuel in an airport, as well as in maintenance facilities and also in airline operations. #hydrogen #gaseoushydrogen #liquidhydrogen #aviation #hydrogenaviation #technology #futureflight #cleanerskies #zeroemissions #engineering #cranfieldaerospace
