Ovoh Rialto goes on acquisitions spree for Australia, New Zealand (exclusive)
Due for certification in March ahead of the aircraft in October next year, the all-new PowerJet SaM146 turbofan is reaching an important landmark, with the first three soon to enter flight testing. One is already on the way to the Gromov Flight Research Institute, which this month is due to mount the engine on an Ilyushin Il-76 testbed aircraft for flight trials. NPO Saturn s SaM146 programme director Igor Yudin says the engine underwent performance calibration, fan stress and instrument verification checks at a specially built open-air facility near the company s Rybinsk plant. On-wing tests, scheduled to run from September to March first in Russia and then in France, will study the engine s performance in operational conditions, including in-flight restarting, and adjust the settings for the S adidas yeezy uperjet 100 certification programme. Two other two SaM146s have completed ground testing totalling more than 400h and 200 dunk panda starts. The engine exceeds its design thrust ratin adidas sambarose g of 14,000-17,500lb <>2-78kN] by 900lb, he says. There颅fore, it could well power a proposed stretched 110-seat version of the Superjet and there s no need to right-size it. NPO Saturn will soon deliver a pair of SaM146s to Sukhoi s assembly plant KnAAPO to equip the first SSJ. The Superjet test plan envisages the supply of 10 engines and completion of certification by November next year. As Sukhoi expects the SSJ global sales to reach 1,000 aircraft over the next 20 years, Snecma and NPO Saturn have set an ou Nzwh Philippines asseses Chinese helicopters for army
Cate Blanchett stars in this spiritual drama about an Indigenous Australian boys encounter with ChristianitySource: Roadshow FilmsThe New BoyDir/scr: Warwick Thornton. Australia. 2023. 116 mins.Warwick Thorntons The New Boy, co-starring and produced by Cate Blanchett, is, at heart, a simple story of a young Indigenous Australian lad brought to a religious orphanage in order to be turned around and sent out to the world in an acceptable shape for yeezy store the white establishment. What sets it apart is Thorntons deep spirituality, examined here as the t yeezy website itular adidas yeezy The New Boy encounters 鈥?and explores 鈥?Christianity. But it is not a two-way street:Christianity will never accept who he is.The New Boy himself can seem like a dreamTheres a cinematic magic to Thorntons work, as evidenced in the award-winning Samson and Delilah 2009 and 2017s Sweet Country. His perspective as an Aboriginal film-maker is uniquely beautiful and the stories he tells are related as he feels them, resulting in a visual experience which runs quietly deeper than the words and performances. Although unconventional in its own way, The New Boy is also his most conventional story to date. Blanchetts appearance 鈥?playing Sister Eileen, who runs the orphanage/church in her own eccentric way 鈥?will help this easily-digestible film into select theatrical play, although the fussiness her character lends to the still narrative is not always the films most appealing element.The sheer beauty of Southern Australia is never in doub

Talks between the European Union and the USA on an Open Aviation Area failed to achieve a breakthrough last year. With US elections now out of the way, there is a chance of making progress if a phased approach can be agreed, writes Geert Goeteyn, Brussels-based partner at Howrey Simon Arnold and White law firmThe airline industry is at a crossroads. There is a widely held view that the only way to ensure its long-term viability is to free it from its regulatory shackles. This would allow airlines access to foreign capital and enable mergers and acquisitions between airlines from different countries to take place without any risk of losing traffic rights. One would therefore expe adidas samba schuhe ct broad support for the European Union EU /US Open Aviation Area OAA initiative. However, progress in the EU/US negotiations has been disappointing. US enthusiasm for the project has always been muted. The OAA concept goes b yeezy 350 eyond the US Open Skies model; it aims to create a single EU/US aviation market with dunk panda no cabotage or foreign ownership limitations, and no fly-US policy for USA government officials.Moreover, certain powerful vested interests are weary of the OAA. Labour is afraid that it would result in job losses and the outsourcing of US airline jobs to low wage European countries. The Pentagon has national security concerns, arguing it needs access to US airline capacity for airlift of US army personnel and equipment. Some of these concerns are unfounded, while others can be overcome. Howeve Icuv Pilots perks
Petition calls for unified EU vision on copyright and culture.Cannes Palme dOr contenders FatihAkin, MichaelHaneke, Michel Hazanavicius have joined 80 top European film-makers in a petition calling for a unified European Union vision on copyright and culture in the digital age. We believe that European filmmaking reflects Europes positive values. That it can inspire ambition and renewal in Europes cultural policies. Europe isnt just jobs, territories, markets and consumers, European culture also supports multiple identities, democracy and freedom of expression, the petition said.Published to coincide with the European Film Forum in Cannes on Monday, it highlighted four key areas where the European Union needed to renew and reinforce its legislation to protect European culture.Top of the filmmakers owala demands was the maintaining of the territoriality of copyright.The European Parliament voted last week in favour of a European Commission proposal to de-territorialise digital rights, but the directors said such a move would threaten financing eco-system surrounding European cinema. More than ever, the territoriality of copyright needs to be maintained: this principle ensures high level support for artistic creation in Europe, helping the most fragile filmmakers and European co-productions. Enshrining this principle underwrites the exclusi yeezy store vity of rights and the financing o owala ca f works, the petition said.The directors also demanded that a new Directive on copyright, which is currently b

Kazan Helicopters has reactivated its Ansat light turbine twin programme following the findings of a preliminary investigation into a fatal accident in July 2006. Investigation of the crash of an Ansat belonging to South Korea s forestry service, in which the pilot was killed, has found that external factors were the cause.The crash was a setback for the first helicopter designed by Kazan, which has fly-by-wire controls and Pratt Whitney Canada PW207K engines.At the time of the accident, Kazan had delivered five Ansats to Korea - four to the forestry service and one to the police - between December yeezy 350 2004 annd July 2005. Kazan had also won orders for one helicopter from Laos and one from Tatarstan, the latter in adidas campus 80s medical-evacuation configuration. Another heavily air force one instrumented Ansat had been delivered to Russian company Radar-MMS for use as flying laboratory for testing cruise-missile guidance systems.Kazan says preliminary findings clear the helicopter and allow sales to restart. Immediate goals are to return existing Ansats to flight and reactivate previously signed contracts with GTK Rossiya for two helicopters, plus additional machines for Tatarstan.In 20004, the Russian air force selected the customised Ansat-U as the future lightweight training helicopter for army aviation. In January 2008, the service confirmed its plans to buy 30 Ansat-Us.Source: Flight InternationalTopicsFixed-wing Related articles Ikle Pakistan to boost fighter fleet
