👇 Here are the highlights from last week at Farnborough International! See you at the next event! 👋 Leonardo Cyber & Security #FIA2024 #cybersecurity #cyberresilience #LeonardoCYS

The first airshow propelled audiences into a world of aviation wonders 100 years ago. Today, there are about 300 airshows around the world including #SGAirshow2026, each differing in scale and scope but sharing the same purpose: to champion human ambition and the relentless pursuit of improvement and innovation. How have airshows evolved and stood against the test of time? Join us as we delve into the first part of our latest series, where we look at how far airshows have come.

Leading aviation sector in style

Here we go again. The bi-annual UK Farnborough Airshow, in the southern county of Hampshire, is about to begin (July 22nd-26th) with weather conditions more befitting a typical English summer than 2022, when attendees experienced extreme 40 centigrade heat (110 Fahrenheit). The 45th Farnborough is seen as one of the largest airshow events in the world, and AAM-related companies are making a more visible appearance than before as the industry continues to grow. https://lnkd.in/e8eRxX9D #FarnboroughAirshow #UKAviation #Farnborough45 #AAMCompanies #AviationTechnology #AerospaceInnovation #FarnboroughExhibition

Did anybody manage to get over to Southport for the airshow this weekend? Anybody going to Farnborough? What about RIAT? Our CEO Jerrod Hartley has featured in the Aerospace Magazine Farnborough Edition, and it's well worth a read if you have a bit of time, and although he won't be in personal attendance at Farnborough, he will be down in Fairford for the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT 2024) at the end of the week. https://lnkd.in/ek-UQhJK An airshow is a great opportunity to stand back and appreciate why we do what we do. Seeing these great machines in action is impressive, but also an opportunity for reflection. It wasn't really that long ago since Wilbur and Orville Wright created the first successful heavier than air flying machine, the Wright Flyer, in 1903, where it achieved a powered flight of 59 seconds covering a distance of 259 metres. It's incredible how far we've come in a relatively short space of time, with modern aircraft with incredible safety and performance profiles. Take the Eurofighter Typhoon for example, which entered service way back in 2003, with some mightily impressive stats: Top speed - Mach 2.0 (approx. 1,550 mph) Ceiling - 55,000 feet Climb Rate - 0 to 36,000 feet in under 90 seconds Acceleration - subsonic to Mach 1.5 in under 30 seconds Thrust - 40,000 lb (equivalent to the weight of over 13 VW Golfs) So, here's to all the hard work, dedication, creative thinking, and human ingenuity that have driven our progress over the past several hundred years. Let's also toast to the future, where we will continue to push boundaries and overcome new challenges with the same dedication and vigour. While the challenges of the future may differ from those of the past, our approach remains steadfast and committed to innovation and excellence. What's your favourite aircraft and why?

Which Commercial Airshows Saw The Most Orders In 2023? The battle of Paris vs Dubai seems to have been a one-horse race this year, with the bi-annual Paris Air Show dwarfing the number of orders seen in the Middle East at the recent Dubai Airshow. In France, the Paris Air Show was held between June 19th and 25th, with the first four days open only to industry before three more days for the general public. Held at Paris–Le Bourget Airport (LBG), European aircraft manufacturer Airbus saw more than 800 aircraft ordered, casting a shadow on Boeing, which saw around 350 orders, in comparison to Dubai, which saw a total of 246 aircraft ordered at Boeing, versus a mere 66 for Airbus.

Airplanes and air travel, the changes over my lifetime and other flight related topics….give it a listen/watch https://lnkd.in/eFBKYsCW

I love airshows and I especially love acrobatic planes that use different coloured smoke. However, as my pic shows, some of the red coloured smoke lingered in the air, in this case, for more than 10 minutes. What's in the air you're breathing that you cannot see? Siemens has many IAQ monitoring systems to choose from and it's important to find the right one for your facility. Why? Because unfortunately, we cannot see most things in our air and while we think we are breathing in fresh air, it is often, far from it. Know what's in your air. Mitigate any risks. Let Siemens help you #breatheasy #airshow #airquality #iaqmonitoring #freshair

Many are not aware that Air France's first few Aerospatiale-BAC Concorde aircraft were delivered in the airline's pre-1976 livery. Variations of this earlier color scheme had been used for decades by the French flag carrier. It was replaced by what could legitimately be called the very first "Euro-white" look. This is the design the company still uses, in slightly modified form, today. F-BTSC is seen here in the old livery, having been photographed in early 1976 at Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport. Sadly is was -BTSC which became the first, and only, Concorde to be involved in a fatal crash (in the year 2000 on departure from this very airport). After a long grounding for safety modifications the Anglo-French supersonic transports were returned to service with Air France and British Airways in 2001. The type was then permanently grounded in 2003 due largely to continuing very low load factors during the worldwide air traffic downturn in the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York and Washington D.C.
