Mammoth Freighters’ Post

John Eichten and I are working together to make certain that Airbus and Boeing operators are well aware of the upcoming AD compliance that is set to commence in 2026. Here are some key points…. 🔵 Lead times for OEM nitrogen-generating systems are long and the price of these kits is at least 2X the purchase price of Jetaire’s INVICTA 🔵 Jetaire pioneered the use of reticulated polyurethane foam in passenger aircraft and continues to lead as the alternative to nitrogen-generating systems 🔵 Jetaire’s product is maintenance-free and comes backed by the industry’s leading warranty Plan today to mitigate potential AOG scenarios by contacting us for information regarding the premier alternative solution for fuel tank flammability reduction compliance.

The FAA Airworthiness Directives 2019-24-01 and 2020-18-13 have made it mandatory for Airbus A320 family aircraft (A319, A320, and A321) and Boeing 737NG aircraft to comply with the fuel tank flammability reduction rule. To ensure the continued safe operation of your VVIP aircraft, it is crucial to act swiftly and obtain a compliant solution. Do not jeopardize the safety of your VIP passengers or the compliance of your aircraft - place your order for INVICTA today.

The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has increased the maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) for the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. This adjustment allows the aircraft to carry more payload or fuel, enhancing its range and operational flexibility. This change applies to 787-9s equipped with specific Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 and GE Aerospace GEnx engines. The updated MTOW is expected to provide airlines with greater efficiency and route planning options, reinforcing the 787-9’s position as a versatile choice for long-haul operations.

It’s painfully obvious that development on tilt-rotor aircraft is slow to yield results. But that doesn’t mean development isn’t happening. Several up-and-coming designs are likely to hit production soon. One of them is known as the Leonardo AW609. The design began in the halls of Bell Helicopter in 1996. It was meant as a civilian answer to the V-22 Osprey. Though Bell initially partnered with Boeing, the latter pulled out of the program two years later and Bell reorganized to Bell/Augusta. That partnership also dissolved in 2011, and this tiltrotor concept fell on the AugustaWestland side. And then, in 2016, Leonardo S.p.A. acquired that company and took development to Italy. Given all the leadership turnover, it’s hardly a surprise that the AW609 has seen so many delays. But its current Italian ownership is making strides at putting the type into service. Both the FAA and EASA have begun evaluating it for type certification. The Italian military is also highly interested, so this year Leonardo tested it out on the country’s aircraft carrier, the Cavour. Leonardo touts the craft as perfect for medevac, search and rescue, and general utility roles, both for military and civilian customers. We certainly hope to see AW609s in the sky in the future. In fact, we’d love to outfit some for air ambulance service. Luminary Air Group has decades of experience fitting aircraft cabins for the specialized rigors of medical missions. We’d be happy to give your fleet the same treatment! #aircraftinteriors #medevac #refurbishment

Michael Whitaker Federal Aviation Administration Administrator helping to kickoff a standing-room only National Business Aviation Association BACE 2024 with Chairman Ed Bolen in Las Vegas! Administrator Whitaker's first year has been focused on safety in the NAS (national airspace system), being a global leader, and focusing on performance when it comes to meeting the required levels of safety (i.e. for eVTOL) and less so for the specifics for how manufacturers should meet the regulations. #safety #pilot #businessaviation #aircraft #l2aviation

In 2024, Embraer proved it’s not just Brazil’s pride but also aviation’s overachiever, delivering 206 aircraft—a 14% jump from 2023. The regional jets, including the E190/E195-E2 family and the trusty E175, led the charge with 73 deliveries. Meanwhile, 130 business jets soared into wealthy skies, as the Executive Aviation division grew by 13%. Even Embraer’s Defense division flexed its muscles, delivering three C-390 Millennium transports. Why there's a jump in Embraer? #embraer #aviation #aircraft #brazil #airplane
