This is my ride, B-58502, the airline's Airbus A350-900. The airline's website/mobile app The airline's website and mobile app are easy to use, user-friendly and the terms and condition are clearly stated so one should not have any issues navigating them. Meanwhile the airline is working hard to operate more flights to the U.S,

These control surfaces dictate the aircraft’s roll, and this allows it to bank smoothly through turns or even recover from turbulence. From simple mechanical linkages in small aircraft to high-tech fly-by-wire systems in airliners, ailerons have evolved with aviation itself. Why does this increase the lift?

Static vents that measure static pressures are usually on the lower side of the plane, where the air stream isn’t as turbulent. Airspeed indicators are extremely important, as aircraft need to hit a minimum speed to maintain lift. Airline pilots also need to know airspeed so they can know when to engage the landing gear.

Let's see how this works out for both airlines after a year or two. More of this airline in my next trip report.

For the final segment, I flew Japan Airlines Airbus A350-1000 business class on the 11hr40min flight from Tokyo (HND) to New York (JFK). Japan Airlines is the launch customer for the Safran Unity seat, and suffice it to say that were in for a treat, as more airlines introduce this product.

In particular, new hire airline pilot training is equated to trying to get a drink of water from a fire hose. The geared turbofan powers a large ducted fan using a gearbox similar to turboprops.

A mix of weaker demand, Russian flying restrictions, and geopolitical turbulence have made the Chinese market a tough one. It’s the secondary carriers in China that are keeping that market above water, airlines like Sichuan and Xiamen, with some China Eastern growth in the mix too. Every airline is down… a lot.

Workers are subject to overheating, and so is their ground equipment: all of those myriad tugs, tractors, carts and lifts that Airplanes themselves, meanwhile, have a lot of internal machinery, both electronic and mechanical, and much of it runs hot to begin with. Extreme heat is no fun for airlines or their customers.

The outer wing generates more lift than the inner wing since it’s temporarily moving faster. Extra lift makes the wing rise. Increased lift on the raised wing immediately creates more induced drag. The trigger can be any external force such as a wind gust or turbulence. How Does Roll Cause Yaw? What’s induced drag?

To get the extra lift required for the turns, I had to dive to get extra airspeed so that the plane could turn at that same AOA. This meant that I could land normally on the runway, not overshoot, and did not need to be concerned with the airliners on the crossing runway.

As 2024 draws to a close, there can be little doubt that, over the course of the year, airline safety has continued to reach new levels, with fewer accidents, fewer aircraft being written off, and fewer fatalities. This list is not exhaustive, however.

With lateral options dwindling, the Bell 47D went into a vertical lift. After one full revolution, the helicopter lifted rapidly from the ground and climbed immediately. Airlines of all flags have shared woes recently. Business aircraft operate like quasi-airlines, blazing creative trails to folly. Feliz ao nuevo!

Introduction What a way to celebrate my first ever Indian domestic flight experience by flying on the airline's brand new Airbus A350-900. Let's say I didn't have the best first impression of this airline and I believe some of you have read about the negative reviews of the airline in almost all aspects of air travel with this airline.
