No longer worth the weight

In addition to safety, weight is one of the decisive criteria in aircraft construction. This is why both aircraft manufacturers and airlines leave no stone unturned when it comes to making their planes lighter. After all, every kilogram saved pays off in the form of lower fuel consumption.

Canada's New Drone Regulations

What the new drone regulations mean for you and your drone operations.

The cost of climate-neutral aviation in the future

Flight ticket prices could rise by 50 percent if aviation is made climate-neutral. This is an estimate from a new study by researchers at ETH Zurich. It is based in particular on the use of synthetic fuels.

Bird-inspired drone can jump for take-off

EPFL researchers have built a drone that can walk, hop, and jump into flight with the aid of birdlike legs, greatly expanding the range of potential environments accessible to unmanned aerial vehicles.

Researchers are making jet engines fit for the hydrogen age

Hydrogen-powered planes are set to take wing around the world in the future. To make this possible, engineers have to develop the jet engines that will power them. Experiments by researchers at ETH Zurich are now providing the necessary basis for making these engines powerful and durable.
