Mit der KC-390 mitfliegen. Was man halt so macht am Sonntag vor Beginn der Paris Air Show. #SIAE @embraer

This is the hybrid of the German Aerospace Centre’s (DLR) #A320 Advanced Technology Research Aircraft (ATRA) and a #Eurofighter. The flying testbed took off for its maiden flight from Braunschweig, Germany.

Operated by Airbus and the @DLR_en in close cooperation with the @bundeswehrInfo, the modified A320 ATRA will be used to test and mature the new AESA (active electronically scanned array) MK1 radar which will be integrated, for example, into the latest generation Eurofighters of Spain’s ‘Halcón’ and Germany’s ‘Quadriga’ orders. The radar will ultimately enhance the Eurofighter’s capabilities in multimode air-to-air and air-to-ground operations with features to also complement electronic warfare capabilities in the future.

@CFM_engines Das Flugzeug war übrigens deutlich leiser (in der Kabine) als eine A320 mit #CFM56.

[Ulrike Ebner @uliversal]

Da freut sich das #avgeek-Herz: Ich flieg zum ersten Mal (!) mit einer A320neo mit @CFM_engines #Leap-1A.

Bei den Forschungsflügen von @DLR_de und @Deu_Aircraft fliegt die D328 UpLift mit PtL-Proxy-Treibstoff ohne Aromaten von @SasolSA. Proxy heißt, dass der Treibstoff von den Eigenschaften nachhaltigem PtL entspricht, aber noch nicht aus einer nachhaltigen Quelle hergestellt wird.

[Ulrike Ebner @uliversal]

Die D328 UpLift und die Falcon 20E sind derzeit für Forschungsflüge gemeinsam in der Luft. Das @DLR_de und die @Deu_Aircraft vermessen erstmals weltweit die Emissionen eines Turboprop-Flugzeugs.

⚠️[Disturbing Video] Most catastrophic rocket test in recent decades by Tianbing at UTC 7:43, June 30

❌Near populous area of Gongyi, Henan!? A miracle without casualty claimed

❌STATIC test, but stand lock couldn’t hold thrust power

❌No self-destruction when losing control

Haste Scheiße am Fuß, haste Scheiße am Fuß. @BoeingSpace #Starliner

[ARCHIVED: NASA Commercial Crew @Commercial_Crew]

.@NASA, @BoeingSpace, and @ulalaunch scrubbed today’s launch attempt due to the computer ground launch sequencer not loading into the correct operational configuration after proceeding into terminal count. The ULA team is working to understand the cause.

The crew and #Starliner spacecraft remain safe.

The next launch opportunity is June 2 at 12:03pm ET for launch of NASA’s Boeing Crew Flight Test.

Und das war die Landung des Boosters der #Falcon9. Der Überschallknall war echt beeindruckend und kam so aus dem Nichts.
