La Comunidad inicia los trámites para el nuevo aeródromo de El Álamo | Madrid | elmundo.es

La Comunidad no negociará con los propietarios de la pista
cercana a Casarrubios. Considera que se ha construido la
pista 300 metros dentro de la Comunidad de Madrid sin
permiso de las autoridades aeronáuticas y el Ayuntamiento
de El Álamo.
Las obras para el próximo aeródromo comenzarán en el
año 2015 y precisarán invertir 230 millones de euros, que
correrán a cargo de la empresa que resulte adjudicataria de
la concesión. Se calcula que dará empleo a 15.000
personas y que las obras durarán unos tres años.

EADS y Rolls Royce presentan su avión de aerolínea híbrido turbina-motor eléctrico

encontrar cómo sustituir los motores a reacción en las aeronaves de pasajeros es algo complejo. Hasta el momento se ha propuesto sustituir el keroseno por biocombustibles, lo que tendría la gran ventaja de no necesitar ningún cambio en la logística actual de suministro de combustibles a los aviones, ni de tecnología de motor, ni de formación de personal en nuevos motores. También se habla de nuevos motores, como los Geared Turbofan o el Leap-X a corto plazo, y los motores de rotor abierto tipo prop-fan a más largo plazo. Y ahora EADS y Rolls Royce nos presentan en Le Bourget esta nueva propuesta. Un avión híbrido, con una turbina de gas que generaría electricidad para mover varios motores eléctricos con fanes entubados, que proporcionarían el empuje. Se trata del eConcept.

Video: ¿El futuro de la aviación de soporte a tropas de tierra?

Boeing Launches New Commercial Airplane; Highlights Innovation, Efficiency and Partnerships at 2013 Paris Air Show

LE BOURGET, France, June 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Boeing (NYSE:BA) enjoyed a strong and productive Paris Air Show launching its newest model, the 787-10 Dreamliner, announcing important commercial airplane orders and strengthening alliances and relationships with customers and partners around the world.

"The 50th Paris Air Show has been important for Boeing with a number of historic milestones," said Charlie Miller, Vice President of International Communications. "Our airline customers have strongly endorsed Boeing's innovative family of commercial airplanes with outstanding orders and the launch of our latest 787 Dreamliner model."

"The excitement and enthusiasm among customers, partners and suppliers for the products and technologies Boeing showcased across the commercial and defense businesses validated our commitment to innovation and customer focus," said Miller.

Boeing highlighted its family of efficient commercial airplanes in both the single and twin-aisle market segments. The 787-10 Dreamliner was launched with 102 orders and commitments from five customers, including Air Lease Corporation (30), GE Capital Aviation Services (10), International Airlines Group / British Airways (12), Singapore Airlines (30) and United Airlines (20).

The new 787-10 covers more than 90 percent of the world's twin-aisle routes with seating for 300-330 passengers. Design of the 787-10 has already started at Boeing and international partners will be involved in detailed design in the months ahead, with first delivery targeted for 2018.

The innovative 787-8 Dreamliner in Air India livery flew for the first time at the Paris Air Show, and the Qatar Airways 787 on static display attracted hundreds of customers, partners, government officials and news media. The ScanEagle unmanned aircraft system, produced by Boeing subsidiary Insitu, was part of the U.S. Corral display throughout the show.

Over the past week, customers have demonstrated their strong confidence in the full family of Boeing commercial products – the Next-Generation 737, 737 MAX, 787, 777 and 747-8, announcing orders and commitments for 442 Boeing airplanes, valued at more than $66 billion. Additional orders for 20 Next-Generation 737s and 20 737 MAX airplanes from unidentified customer(s) were posted on theOrders & Deliveries website today. The number of Boeing net orders for 2013 currently stands at 692.

Boeing announced during the show key partnerships with Embraer on the sales and marketing of Embraer's KC-390 medium-size transport, and with Sikorsky on a joint venture to compete for sustainment services in support of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia' s rotorcraft fleet. The U.S. Marine Corps V-22 Program Manager reported that operational success of the Bell-Boeing tilt-rotor played a key role in the recent award of a $6.5 billion multi-year contract for 99 aircraft. Boeing also announced that work has begun at Le Bourget on a $354 million Mid-Life Upgrade contract with Air France Industries to upgrade four French E-3F Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) aircraft.
