The AT2 Aerospace Z1 airship aims to use a combination of hydrogen propulsion and helium buoyancy to travel over 1,000 miles per trip. It will reach the world's most remote destinations and use proprietary Air Cushion landing gear to touch down.

Rhode Island-based startup Regent Craft has successfully completed the first test of its full-size electric Viceroy seaglider with passengers on board, validating the company's idea for an all-new kind of ocean-faring vessel.

NASA has released a new image providing photographic evidence of Boom Supersonic's XB-1 prototype aircraft breaking the sound barrier. Captured on the second supersonic flight, it used a special imaging technique to record the historic event.

Deriving from electric motor technology that set speed records on land, water and air, the Evolito axial flux machine will bring world-beating levels of power density to the Flying Whales airship, designed to be the largest aircraft in the world.

A blast from aviation's past might make a splash in the future as Tidal Flight signs a Letter of Intent with Tropic Ocean Airways for 20 of the company's super-efficient hybrid-electric Polaris amphibian seaplanes worth over US$100 million.

SkyDrive has long taken a leadership role in Japan's eVTOL industry with sights on making flying cars as common as automobiles. This week, it released the first photos of its soon-to-debut three-seater after taking the next step toward certification.

If you've been keeping tabs on aviation news as of late, you saw that Boom Supersonic just recently broke the sound barrier with its XB-1 demonstrator aircraft. Oddly enough, no one on the ground heard a thing during its "boomless" cruise.

Hybrid-electric aircraft maker Pipistrel just ushered its Nuuva V300 electric vertical takeoff and landing craft through a major milestone. A recent video shows it break the chains of gravity and hover midair in a first for the vehicle.

Imagine a massive high-tech helium balloon that stretches over an NFL football field in length, has more cargo capacity than an Airbus Beluga XL, and produces megawatts of power for nearly three dozen propellers. That's the Flying Whales LCA60T.

The latest in crazy impressive drone technology isn't from DJI (or "research drones" approved by the FAA). It's called the "safety-assured high-speed aerial robot," also known as SUPER. Check out what actually makes it super.

Boom Supersonic has gone, well, supersonic, its XB-1 prototype breaking the sound barrier today in the skies over the Mojave Air & Space Port in California. With Chief Test Pilot Tristan Brandenburg at the controls, it reached a speed of Mach 1.122.

After 10 months of flight testing, Boom Supersonic has announced that it will make the first supersonic flight of its XB-1 prototype tomorrow at 7:45 am PST in the skies over the Mojave Desert in California. Here's how to watch.

Indra Group has taken multitasking to the next level, signing an agreement with Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace AS that has the company providing air traffic control for 23 Norwegian airports from one central location in Bodø, Norway.

If you've ever ridden in a car that can park itself at the push of a button, you'll appreciate the achievement of Skyryse, which has made a fully-conforming production helicopter that can hover with the swipe of a finger.

The aviation industry has long been in pursuit of technological efficiency and sustainability. In a recent collaboration, Turbotech, Safran, and Air Liquide teamed up to validate the feasibility of using liquid hydrogen to power a turbine engine.
