Chuck DarwinEfficiency gains from engines will still be vital for the industry.The most marked change in the appearance of <a href="https://c.im/tags/engines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#engines</a> could be the return of the open <a href="https://c.im/tags/propeller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#propeller</a>. The design dispenses with the <a href="https://c.im/tags/nacelle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#nacelle</a> – the cover – to allow for a bigger fan that offers more propulsive force. Superficially, it will look like existing turboprop engines, but with the ability to fly at Mach 0.8, or 80% of the speed of sound – the same as current jet engines.<a href="https://c.im/tags/CFM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CFM</a>, a joint-venture between America’s General Electric and France’s Safran, has said that its open fan <a href="https://c.im/tags/Rise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Rise</a> engine could theoretically reduce fuel consumption and carbon emissions by 20%. The company says it can reduce noise, which put paid to a previous prototype in 1986. It will still have to persuade regulators and passengers that the engines will be safe if a blade breaks in midair.As well as radical changes to airframes or engines, manufacturers are constantly looking for ways to salami-slice <a href="https://c.im/tags/fuel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fuel</a> burn via small gains.<a href="https://c.im/tags/Winglets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Winglets</a>, the curved tips of wings, were first introduced in the 1970s in response to the then oil crisis, mimicking birds’ wings to reduce drag. The split winglets on the 737 family since 2014 can reduce fuel burn by as much as 2% during a long journey, according to the Seattle-based manufacturer Aviation Partners. (For plane-spotters, they double as the easiest way to distinguish a 737 from an A320.)Birds have had millennia to evolve the ideal features for efficient flight, so aviation designers have constantly used them for inspiration. Airbus is experimenting with <a href="https://c.im/tags/gust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gust</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/sensors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sensors</a> on the front of the aircraft to register during turbulence, with automatic responses from control surfaces of the wing, similar to a bird’s constant adjustments to movements in the air.<a href="https://c.im/tags/Concorde" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Concorde</a>, which flew on only a limited number of routes, was the last passenger plane in service with a truly distinctive design. The supersonic jet, which had swept-back, delta wings, was retired in 2003. <a href="https://c.im/tags/Boom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Boom</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Supersonic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Supersonic</a>, a startup, is testing the technologies for a proposed “son of Concorde” with a similar look.That plane would only ever be a niche service, flying 80 passengers at a time on premium routes. But there is a possibility that Boeing and Airbus take radically different approaches to the workhorses that carry billions of passengers each year.If the manufacturers go in different directions, then passengers might start paying serious attention to plane design, says Addison Schonland, an analyst who tracks the industry at AirInsight.“I don’t think we’ve ever had a situation before, to look at an aeroplane and say, ‘that’s completely different’,” he says. “How will people react to seeing those novel shapes?”(3/3) <a href="https://c.im/tags/Airbus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Airbus</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/JetZero" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#JetZero</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Delft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Delft</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/University" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#University</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/McKinsey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#McKinsey</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/fuel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fuel</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/efficiency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#efficiency</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Boeing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Boeing</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/truss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#truss</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/transonic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#transonic</a>

IFR (she/her)I had The Boy again today, so I took him to the Viewing Park at <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/ManchesterAirport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ManchesterAirport</a>. He got to see a <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Concorde" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Concorde</a> up close. I have such good memories of Concorde. It used to take off every morning and fly over my building at <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/LHR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LHR</a>. Flight BA 001. I used to look out my office window around 10:30 and it would appear to be flying straight towards me.I used to have to put calls on hold as the noise would mean I could hear nothing else. It’d set off all the car alarms in the car park as it passed.
