Archer Aviation has announced that its Maker eVTOL made its first full-transition to wing-borne flight on 29 November 2022.
Transition refers to the shifting of an aircraft’s lift-generation from one architecture and set of governing physical principles to another—most often from vertical flight, by dint of downward-vectored rotor thrust, to forward flight. omen in Aviation International (WAI) has announced its upcoming crop of 2023 inductees for its International Pioneer Hall of Fame. These trailblazers will be honored at the 34th Annual Women in Aviation International Conference, where they'll be honored with a ceremony and celebration dinner. On 26 November 2022, a BASE jumper was injured when a gust of wind caught his parachute and forced him into the face of the aptly named Tombstone cliff near Moab, Utah. The impact rendered the jumper unconscious. Fortune intervened on the man’s behalf, however, snagging his parachute on a ledge some one-hundred feet above the ground. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
