With the EU's demand for used cooking oil (UCO) possibly doubling to six million tonnes by 2030, the EU must act quickly to prevent its sustainable biofuel policy from becoming a farce due to fraudsters in these countries sending unsustainable p…

Major General Robert White earned his astronaut wings in the X-15 when he reached 95.9 km (59.6 mi) in altitude #OTD in 1962, setting a world record.

Oh, and he was also the first pilot to fly to Mach 4, 5 & 6 #avgeeks #aviation @NASAaero

When #corporate greed undermines #engineering culture, disasters happen. At Boeing it literally happened two times with passenger aircraft #boeing 737 MAX killing hundreds. Senior management was only interested in stock prices - those criminals cut costs in engineering, quality assurance and training. Yet instead of jail time CEO Dennis Muilenburg walks away with $62.2m in stock and pension awards. He is back in #aviation industry now. This is outrageous. :netflix: #documentary "Downfall"

Mig-25's first prototype Ye-155-R1.The wings had fixed wingtip tanks to which small winglets were attached for stability purposes, but when it was found that fuel sloshing around in the tanks caused vibrations, they were eliminated. Wiki. #aviation m.weibo.cn/u/1584526667?u…
