A Legacy of Competition Takes Flight Again The rivalry between Airbus and Boeing has defined modern aviation since the 1 ...

China has conducted a successful maiden flight of a miniature turbojet engine manufactured entirely with 3D printing, a ...

Analysts say it marks the largest leap in wing-in-ground effect (WIG) aircraft design since the Cold War, when the Soviet ...

While they don't use jet propulsion like airplanes do, most modern helicopters are powered by jet-based technology — specifically a type of jet engine called a turboshaft.

Bob Maddox once built the world’s largest pulse-jet engine and mounted it in a 1965 Jaguar. Star Wars audio engineers even recorded his pulse-jet engines for the movie Solo.

Jet engine spirals are meant for the safety of ground workers. When the blades on jet engines spin, they're whipping at high speeds, normally between 2,200 and 4,500 rotations per minute (RPM).

On October 11, 2024, Astro Mechanica successfully performed the first hot-fire test up to 30% power of its Gen3 engine. Traditional turbojets, like you'd see in fighter planes, use the exhaust gas ...
