Could hydrogen-powered zero-carbon commuter flights be just around the corner? TIM ROBINSON speaks to stealth start-up ZeroAvia – which this year will test a six-seat Piper single-engined piston aircraft converted to use a hydrogen powertrain in the skies of the UK.
Would it be possible (though not practical) to create a jet that runs on liquid nitrogen that is heated, creating the expansion effect? I believe nitrogen takes up 674 (about) times as much space in
There are exceptions. Air New Zealand once turned a Boeing 777 into a giant ad for Lord of the Rings, Mango, based in Johannesburg, utilises a bright orange hue, while Siberian carrier S7 tends to colour its planes lime green. But the vast majority of passenger aircraft are painted white. Why?
These look cool. Not sure what range they have but I know a guy at work who would love one, He is always jumping out of the office into the carpark to watch planes go over as he has an app that pings him whenever there is something nearby. Last week it was a bunch of ww2 spitfires and before that it was one of those weird jumbos with a big round radar thing on top. He would buy it, but not sure who else would.
WATCHES NEWS !!! Tokyoflash has created a radar watch that scans the skies (or your wrist) Tokyoflash is one of my favorite watchmakers. Unabashedly analog, ...
Nitrogen no, but the age of Hydrogen-powered flight and spaceflight is dawning.
this nitrogen idea keeps coming round, I don’t like it. here’s why:
just wow!
Even just colored planes would be an improvement, though there are reasons they are usually white.
They are missing a trick here – there are loads of aerial advertising types from blimps to banners behind planes. why not underneath jumbos?
The perfect gift for any aviation enthusiast. Not cheap, though!
