Universal Hydrogen Announces Strategic Agreement with Air New Zealand to Deliver True Zero Emission Solution for Regional Aviation
LOS ANGELES & AUCKLAND, New Zealand--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Universal Hydrogen Co., whose mission is to make hydrogen aviation a near-term reality, today announced it has signed a strategic agreement with Air New Zealand as part of the airline's expanding Mission Next Gen Aircraft program. Air New Zealand has today named Universal Hydrogen to its long-term partner program as it seeks to find sustainable solutions for its fleet.
"As the second-largest turboprop operator in the world, Air New Zealand is a trendsetter for the industry"
Air New Zealand's Chief Sustainability Officer Kiri Hannifin says the airline has bold sustainability goals that won't be met by a 'business as usual' approach. "Mission Next Gen Aircraft aims to accelerate the technology and infrastructure needed to decarbonize our domestic flights, by joining forces with the world's leading aircraft developers, innovators, and infrastructure providers. We want to be a leader in the roll out of zero emissions aircraft in New Zealand. Having Universal Hydrogen as one of our long-term partners will grow our collective understanding of zero emissions aircraft technology as it develops and will give them the confidence they are developing a product that's well-suited for our fleet."
Universal Hydrogen is developing a solution to convert existing regional airplanes to fly on hydrogen and to supply hydrogen to the fleet using a modular fueling approach, which eliminates the need for new airport infrastructure, speeds up the fueling operation, and reduces transfer losses throughout the hydrogen delivery chain. On completion of testing and certification, Universal Hydrogen's conversion kits could be installed in Air New Zealand's regional fleet.
"As the second-largest turboprop operator in the world, Air New Zealand is a trendsetter for the industry," said Paul Eremenko, co-founder and CEO of Universal Hydrogen. "We fully expect other airlines to follow in Air New Zealand's footsteps toward a true zero emissions solution for their fleets. We're thrilled to be selected alongside Air New Zealand's other long-term partners—Airbus, ATR, Embraer, and Heart Aerospace—to quickly address aviation's contributions to the climate crisis."

Universal Hydrogen Completes First Taxi Tests and Is Granted Experimental Airworthiness Certificate by the Federal Aviation Administration
Video
Universal Hydrogen Chief Test Pilot, Alex Kroll, takes our hydrogen fuel cell flying test bed out for its first round of taxi runs in preparation for its maiden flight. A 40+ seat Dash 8-300 regional airliner, this will be by far the largest hydrogen fuel cell-powered airplane to take to the skies.
Press release
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Universal Hydrogen Co., whose mission is to make hydrogen aviation a near-term reality, today announced it was granted a special airworthiness certificate in the experimental category by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to proceed with the first flight of its hydrogen-powered regional aircraft. The company also released video footage of successful first taxi tests of the aircraft, designed to evaluate ground handling qualities and the performance of the fuel-cell electric powertrain at low power settings and airspeeds.
"Today's milestones are essential, important steps to putting the industry on a trajectory to meet Paris Agreement obligations. The only alternative is curtailing aviation traffic growth to curb emissions."
The Dash 8-300 flying testbed has a megawatt-class hydrogen fuel cell powertrain installed in one of its nacelles. The powertrain is in a configuration that closely resembles the company's first product—a conversion kit for ATR 72-600 regional airliners—which is expected to be certified and in commercial passenger service starting in 2025. Notably, Universal Hydrogen's powertrain does not utilize a hybrid battery architecture—a major innovation—with all of the power transmitted directly from the fuel cells to the electric motor, significantly decreasing weight and lifecycle cost.
The FAA approval clears the way for the first flight of the Dash 8-300 flying testbed which will take place at Grant County International Airport in Moses Lake, Washington. The aircraft will be by far the largest hydrogen fuel cell-powered airplane to take to the skies, and second as a hydrogen-powered aircraft only to the Soviet flight test in 1988 of a Tupolev Tu-155 airliner with one of its jet engines converted to burn hydrogen.
Universal Hydrogen unveiled in December 2022 first operational tests of its modular hydrogen delivery system at its engineering center in Toulouse, France. Those tests demonstrated a pragmatic, near-term, and highly scalable approach to hydrogen delivery to airports and into the aircraft using a modular capsule technology. This eliminates the need for costly new infrastructure, with any airport capable of handling cargo being hydrogen-ready. It also eliminates transfer losses and significantly speeds up hydrogen fueling operations—both significant pain points for the zero-emissions fuel.
"We are simultaneously providing a pragmatic, near-term solution for hydrogen infrastructure and delivery, as well as for converting existing passenger aircraft to use this lightweight, safe, and true-zero-emissions fuel," said Paul Eremenko, co-founder and CEO of Universal Hydrogen. "Today's milestones are essential, important steps to putting the industry on a trajectory to meet Paris Agreement obligations. The only alternative is curtailing aviation traffic growth to curb emissions."

[Podcast]¿Es el aeropuerto de Madrid-Barajas Adolfo Suarez el peor del Mundo?
Ya sabemos que para hoy os habíamos prometido algo que se salía totalmente de lo habitual, una charla con el autor del que posiblemente sea el único poema que gira entorno a un autogiro, y que además tiene forma de autogiro, porque es un caligrama. Pero la actualidad manda… así que el episodio más literario del programa tendrá que esperar a la próxima entrega, dentro de dos semanas.
¿Cuál es esa actualidad que manda? Pues que ni más ni menos una periodista del Financial Times dice, en un artículo que hemos conocido por The Local, que el aeropuerto madrileño es el peor del Mundo. Y después de haber viajado, y haber tenido penosas experiencias en otros aeropuertos, esta aseveración nos parecía como poco cuestionable. Y más sabiendo que en diciembre se listaba este aeropuerto como el 12º mejor del mundo. Así que hemos tirado de contactos y hemos invitado a Miguel Sánchez, consultor especializado en aeropuertos y con amplia experiencia, nacional e internacional, a analizar los hechos que expone la periodista del Financial Times. ¿Es el aeropuerto Madrid-Barajas Adolfo Suárez el peor del Mundo?
pd: Si la intro y la despedida os son familiares, que no os sorprenda. En un ejercicio de nostalgia podcasteril he hablado con Javier Lago para pedirle permiso y utlizar la introducción que hizo para el que, si no recuerdo mal, fue el primer podcast español sobre aviación: Remove Before Flight RBF podcast

Capability Provides Global Coverage That Enables Operations Anywhere in the World
SAN DIEGO – 02 February 2023 – On Dec. 22, 2022, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) and the Air National Guard (ANG), with joint support from the U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) and U.S. Air Force (USAF), flight tested an MQ-9A remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) equipped with a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite communications (SATCOM) Command and Control system. This groundbreaking capability provides global coverage and connectivity that will enable pole-to-pole operations for GA-ASI's family of RPA – including models such as the MQ-9B SkyGuardian®/SeaGuardian®, MQ-9A Reaper, and Gray Eagle 25M.
"This is truly game-changing for our platforms," said GA-ASI President David R. Alexander. "Using LEO SATCOM not only keeps GA-ASI aircraft connected from the North Pole to the South Pole to allow operations in the most austere environments, but it will also provide resilient connectivity that allows operators to pass much more data to and from the aircraft."
Early testing indicates LEO SATCOM significantly reduces latency and can be used in all phases of flight. For customers across the MQ-9 family of systems, LEO SATCOM should decrease operational costs, and the smaller hardware footprint will ultimately increase flexibility and reduce future payload integration costs.
The MQ-9A flight test was based out of GA-ASI's Gray Butte Flight Operations Facility near Palmdale, Calif., and followed several weeks of ground testing.

GA-ASI Selected to Build OBSS for AFRL
SAN DIEGO – 02 February 2023 – General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) will manufacture and perform demonstration flights of the Air Force Research Laboratory's (AFRL) unmanned Off-Board Sensing Station (OBSS) aircraft. Following a 12-month base period that culminated in a critical design review (CDR), AFRL exercised a build and flight test option.
GA-ASI's innovative Gambit Series aircraft will validate the "genus/species" concept first developed by AFRL as part of the Low-Cost Attritable Aircraft Platform Sharing (LCAAPS) program focused on building several aircraft variants from a common core chassis. LCAAPS is a major air vehicle effort under AFRL's Autonomous Collaborative Enabling Technologies (ACET) portfolio, which is focused on developing technologies for Autonomous Collaborative Platforms (ACP).
"Throughout our 30-year history, GA-ASI has pioneered the advancement of unmanned aircraft systems that support our warfighters," said GA-ASI President David R. Alexander. "AFRL is moving forward with GA-ASI because we have the right background and experience to develop the OBSS aircraft at scale and on time, and we look forward to working with them to deliver another game-changing UAS."

La NASA lanza páginas web en español sobre aeronáutica
https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/la-nasa-lanza-paginas-web-en-espanol-sobre-aeronautica
Como parte de su empeño por proporcionar más recursos e información a nuevos públicos, la NASA ha lanzado nuevas páginas web con información sobre aeronáutica en español. El objetivo de estas páginas es hacer más accesible el contenido aeronáutico a la comunidad hispanohablante.
"Se trata de un significativo paso adelante en nuestros esfuerzos por poner los conocimientos que hemos acumulado en la NASA a disposición de la gente de todo el país, y del mundo. Nos estamos asegurando de que a medida que exploramos y abordamos los mayores retos a los que se enfrenta la aviación, estamos proporcionando beneficios para todos", dijo Bob Pearce, administrador asociado de la Dirección de Misiones de Investigación Aeronáutica de la NASA. "Al presentar información sobre aeronáutica y materiales educativos en español, estamos esforzándonos por fomentar una próxima generación de exploradores diversa, audaz y capaz. Contamos con esta generación para ayudar a la NASA a llevar su visión hacia el futuro."
Según datos de la Oficina del Censo de Estados Unidos, el español es la segunda lengua más hablada en este país, después del inglés. La traducción de los contenidos aeronáuticos de la NASA ayudará a inspirar a la próxima generación de exploradores de la NASA.
Las páginas web ofrecen material educativo sobre el trabajo que realiza la Dirección de Misiones de Investigación Aeronáutica de la NASA. Contienen información sobre las principales prioridades de la agencia, incluida la aviación sostenible. La NASA se ha comprometido a conseguir que las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero del sector de la aviación sean nulas en 2050 y se esfuerza por alcanzar ese objetivo liderando campos que van desde las tecnologías ecológicas y el diseño de aeronaves hasta la fabricación de materiales compuestos y las pruebas de combustibles sostenibles. Las nuevas páginas ayudarán a la agencia a dar a conocer esta labor a nuevos miembros del público.
Además, las páginas web cubrirán los avances tecnológicos desarrollados por la NASA, como la misión Quesst, que demostrará la tecnología supersónica silenciosa, posiblemente abriendo la puerta a vuelos supersónicos comerciales sobre tierra. Los lectores podrán informarse sobre la misión de Movilidad Aérea Avanzada de la NASA (que tiene como objetivo ayudar al desarrollo de sistemas de transporte aéreo en todo el país), pruebas aeronáuticas en los túneles de viento de la NASA y otras instalaciones, y mucho más.
Las páginas web también contienen contenidos diseñados para jóvenes estudiantes centrados en la ciencia, la tecnología, la ingeniería y las matemáticas (STEM, por sus siglas en inglés), destinados a ayudar a padres y profesores a iniciar a los niños en estos campos de estudio.
