Increasing Rates of Climb in Fighter Aircraft Like the New Joint force Strike Fighter
We know from studying aircraft like the F-8 Crusader, in which my dad had the fortunate to fly while in the US Navy stationed in Puerto Rico, that when the wind was tilted upward on the aircraft that it had a lower takeoff speed and much higher initial rates of climb. At which point the wing came back to position and it was a pencil shaped rocket with wings.

Top Aviation Experts Debate Merits of Very Light Jets, Other New Aircraft
Rockville, MD (PRWeb) January 24, 2007 -- A confluence of market trends is generating rare opportunities for new aircraft around the globe, particularly Very Light Jets (VLJs), an emerging breed of transport that promises to revolutionize travel. That’s the topic under consideration during a forthcoming webinar “summit” of aviation experts.
“New Market Opportunities, New Aircraft” webinar will be held Tuesday, February 6, 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. (EST). The webinar is a presentation of Aviation Today, a leading web site for aviation professionals. To register for the webinar, visit: www.AviationToday.com.
Speakers at the webinar will be Richard Aboulafia, vice president of analysis, The Teal Group, and Michel Merluzeau, director, Military and Commercial Airborne Systems, Aerospace and Defense Group, Frost & Sullivan. The moderator will be John Persinos, publisher and editorial director, Aviation Today.
Many analysts and industry insiders are convinced that the airline crisis is over. Indeed, opportunities are emerging around the globe, providing impetus for new aircraft models of all types. In particular, growing prosperity in point-to-point business travel is boosting the fortunes of the VLJ, an innovative, light weight and fuel efficient aircraft that some are likening to the “microchip of aviation”. But when it comes to these VLJs, is there more hype than promise? The Feb. 6 webinar will debate an answer. Also on the agenda for discussion will be Boeing’s all-composite Dreamliner, Airbus’ new extra widebody, and lots more.
Aviation Today’s webinars are widely followed in the aviation industry and tend to create news in their own right. Jeffrey Owens, vice president of Bank of America leasing, attended Aviation Today’s Dec. 5 webinar on aircraft values. He pronounced it both “good” and “helpful” and the most interesting aspect of the webinar was “discussions around current values and expected trends of specific aircraft types.”
Anyone interested in manufacturing, maintaining, operating, buying, leasing, insuring, or selling aircraft will want to access the latest webinar: “New Market Opportunities, New Aircraft”, on Tuesday, Feb. 6, at 11:00 a.m. (EST). To register, go to: http://www.AviationToday.com.
