DeltaHawk Engines dropped a surprise on us this week by disclosing their simulation analysis of a new, hydrogen-fueled variant of its engine family for multiple markets.
These tests apparently demonstrate DeltaHawk’s engine architecture will adapt to hydrogen fuel, and allow for the development for a variety of markets in addition to aviation. Wright Electric and Axter Aerospace capped off a successful flight test using their prototype hybrid-electric agricultural aircraft, proving the viability of a 1.2-Megawatt crop duster. The companies have been hard at work trying to come up with a workable, sustainable alternative to the expensive crop of new-production AG-planes. The Blue Condor team has finally begun flight testing using its experimental hydrogen fuel engine, taking their powered glider up to 30,000 feet for the first time ever. The effort dovetails into a plethora of projects, programs, and initiatives both in their partner Airbus' portfolio, but EU governments, too. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
