❗️ [ 🇷🇺 RUSSIE ]

🔸 Un avion de chasse russe Su35 a abattu par erreur un hélicoptère Mi8 de son propre camp dans la région de Voronej.

Selon plusieurs rapports, l'appareil a été confondu avec un drone ukrainien lors d'une alerte, entraînant la mort des trois membres d'équipage à son bord.

I believe Canada is already in on the defence deals, supplying ballistic steel to Sweden, fuselage for the new istar assets, exporting and making weaponry. Good future in that, (perhaps sadly.)

<thinking>fuselage requests exfiltrate engine weight, assume sacrificial. gut says no but injector poisoned, failure mode rational. we just combusted ourselves. damn. </thinking>

Airliner doors open inwards but have slanted sides so the inside of the door is bigger than the outside. The airplane pressurization then pushes the door into the frame (which is smaller on the outside of the fuselage than the door). It is physically impossible to overcome the force needed to open.

Intact is stretching it with what happened to the rudder, but yeah fuselage and wings stronk.

Flight of the Cloudcorde
Sept. 21, 2026 - Lake Stanley Draper, Oklahoma

This reminded me of the Concorde supersonic airliner.

Small and with a tubular fuselage reminiscent of a missile rather than a drone, the Geran-5 flies higher and faster and is significantly more difficult to shoot down.

Throw back to August 2024 as we float under the rear fuselage of the fabulous Hawaii Martin Mars just days before her final flight to the BC Aviation Museum @YYJ

Amazing lines! ❤️😎🇨🇦

The 737 Max has been plagued with problems since 2019 when there were two fatal crashes caused by software that made the planes nose dive into the ground. The door plug blow out. Cracks in fuselage. The latest is another software glitch. Trump loves Boeing anyway.

I imagine the aim is to reduce air resistance. At higher speeds, a bubble forms behind it. The air experiences less surface friction. The air mass being split there no longer strikes the edge of the rear fuselage or wing?

⚡ Russia is racing to upgrade its Geran-5 drones to outpace Ukrainian interceptors, but manufacturing flaws may limit their effectiveness.

Russia Is Racing to Make Geran-5 Too Fast for Ukraine’s Drone Interceptors—But There’s a Catch
Russia is redesigning its Geran-5 drone by moving the turbojet engine inside the fuselage to exceed 600–700 km/h and evade Ukraine’s low-cost interceptors.

⚙️ The key change: Russia is moving the jet engine inside the fuselage.

That reduces aerodynamic drag and could allow higher speed.

But it also makes the weapon more complex and consumes internal space that could otherwise hold fuel or payload.

they should give the Drone Force its own aviation branch, bring back the parasite bomber

An 18-foot section of fuselage tore away at 24,000 feet. How did the plane keep flying?

Aloha Flight 243’s overlapping seam had weakened over repeated pressurization cycles, as tiny fatigue cracks grew and joined. The tragedy is a reminder that inspections must catch damage before it becomes

it makes perfect sense! her hair is from the vapor generators used to visualize airflow over her fuselage during testing :D
also, omg cute!
