An experienced aviation team has taken the unusual step of launching a crowdfunding campaign to gauge interest in investing in the development of a vertical-takeoff-and-landing (VTOL) light business aircraft. Exploiting new Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules that allow start-ups to “test the waters” before a stock offering, the crowdfunding campaign on StartEngine is part of a larger financing plan by XTI Aircraft to raise capital to begin development of the TriFan 600.
Against a background of growing concern over “rogue” unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) near airports and in other sensitive areas, NASA has conducted a dress rehearsal for the upcoming demonstration of the first version of an airspace system designed to enable safe UAS operations at low altitudes.
A high-temperature incendiary munition designed to destroy chemical and biological weapons facilities without spreading the dangerous material is to be demonstrated by General Dynamics under a U.S. Air Force contract.
