How can we solve some of the pressing issues faced by UAS service providers, ranging from technical hurdles and regulatory compliance to airspace integration and Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations? 𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘂𝗽𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗲𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿 for an overview of the critical challenges and opportunities in UAS Mission Planning, as well as an introduction to Carmenta UAS Services. For those of you that have already got started with a trial of Carmenta UAS Services, the webinar also includes a “How to get started” session on how the API and technology works.

Having had the opportunity to follow the meeting of the European Network of U-space Stakeholders yesterday, we are finding the following insights as aptly summed by Munish Khurana, sticking with us this morning ⏩️   🔍 First, highlighting that a common lexicon – or the cross-distribution of existing terminology – between technical development, operations, regulators and end-users, is a prerequisite for progress in the field. Whilst it is certainly not a novel conclusion, its articulation in a room filled with representatives of each of these sectors, who were all empowered to engage with the discussion presented, indirectly demonstrated its effectiveness and represented the argument for its necessity in a broader and more diverse context. 🔍 Second, having now established some channels of communication between those stakeholders, for example through SESAR Joint Undertaking projects (we were particularly proud here, of the mentions of SAFIR-Ready , the entire SAFIR family of projects, and BURDI.eu), positing that there is an urge for those end-users to articulate their need for a quick take-up of #uspace technologies not only to regulators but one step further, to legislative and governance bodies. The significance of broadening such discussions, to both higher and lower levels of the value-chain, cannot be understated. To this end, the indication that taking up the concept of u-space in Parliamentary sessions might be in the cards, especially as it pertains to medical and emergency response, was very encouraging! Throughout the event, we were also quite happy to see ⬇️ 📝 The role and participation of collectives such as the Joint European Drone Associations (JEDA) and DORAI being highlighted. 📝Some brief but poignant discourse on the importance of engaging with the concerns of the individual drone operator or member of the public; whether that is to address making u-space access affordable and equitable, or to alleviate concerns about the visual or auditory impact of such operations. Cheers again to EUROCONTROL for an incredibly well-organised event, leaving us with plenty of ideas and room for thought!

BSI Aerospace, supported by Egis and backed by UK Research and Innovation, have launched the new Future Flight Standards Landscape. The new, expanded, Future Flight Standards landscape now covers lots of key use cases. Just a few examples include: ➡️ Detect and avoid ➡️ Operation of uncrewed aircraft systems ➡️ New fuel sources and propulsion systems The landscape is structured by key topic to make it easier to find relevant standards, from sustainability, digital technologies and communications, to safety, advanced air mobility and airspace. Visit the Future Flight Standards Hub, to explore the interactive visualization.

Planning capabilities for helicopter and VTOL parking at airports are enhanced in the latest version of AviPLAN 2024. Offering more flexibility, helicopters and VTOLs can now be displayed in a park situation, and users can choose from various insertion points, such as the center of the D-value, skids, or landing gear. To learn more about the further updates in AviPLAN 2024, watch the on-demand webinar > https://bit.ly/448Cy9y

As another industry first for business aviation, the closed loop Digital Flight Control System architecture of the #falcon6x uses the Flaperons and Ailerons for pitch, roll and yaw functions! The #falcon’s highly optimized control laws also use the Ailerons and Flaperons to increase lift as well as drag! Take a look as the Flaperons and Ailerons transition from roll, yaw and lift functions to purely drag functions across the entire wing span automatically! As someone with 12 type ratings, I can attest that the #falcon6X’s handling characteristics are the best I’ve ever experienced!

🚨✈️ 𝐆𝐏𝐒 𝐉𝐚𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐭: 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐎𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐱 ✈️🚨  In late March, over 1,600 aircraft experienced mysterious GPS disruptions in the Baltic Sea region, presenting unprecedented challenges to pilots and airlines. At CCRI, we believe in turning obstacles into opportunities for innovation and resilience.  🌍 #GACCRI used our #Optix platform and Satellite ADSB data from our partner #Aireon to build a live view of the last 24 and 72 hours of degraded GPS. As we navigate through these disruptions, let's discuss how technology can lead the way in ensuring safety and reliability in aviation. How can we leverage advancements in GPS alternatives and backups to maintain safe passage in our skies?  💡 Share your thoughts and insights on how #OptixInsights can collectively enhance our airspace's security. Let's innovate for a safer tomorrow! #thewashingtontimes https://lnkd.in/eXG6Nu-A.

Flying Cows to the rescue! 🛰️🌍💚 Watch this amazing story about Zephyrs, hand launched, solar powered small aircraft flying in the stratosphere. For what purpose you might ask? Well, earth observation is one, but we’re very excited about the aircraft’s ability to function as a base station for mobile telephony! It could cover 7 500 square kms and replace 200 base stations on the ground, realising huge power savings. Flying COWs, they call these high altitude platform stations that offer excellent mobile network coverage solutions for rural areas. Just like we offer innovative solutions to bridge the Digital Divide, responsibly and sustainably. What’s in a name? We know! Flying Cows to the rescue!
