IndiGo has historically been known for being incredibly operationally reliable, and it’s one of the things that has allowed the carrier to become the largest in India.

It wasn’t always this way with the first jet-powered airliners featuring square windows with sharp edges. Unfortunately, this was an engineering nightmare that should have had already been learned from centuries of shipbuilding. Airplane makers always want to make their aircraft more attractive to passengers, but safe engineering must come first. While Boeing has been able to design its Boeing 787 and 777X with extra-large windows, this is only possible with advanced materials and engineering to ensure they will not be…

Autonomous surface vessels will become part of the global command and control network used by the U.S. Navy and other U.S. military services due to a new partnership between HavocAI and SAIC, effectively making the vessels an integrated part of U.S. naval surface power and expanding their availability to serve all U.S. military branches for the first time. The agreement announced by SAIC and HavocAI last month will see a link-up between HavocAI’s autonomous surface vessels and SAIC’s advanced joint range extension gateway. The JRE currently streamlines communications for U.S. and allied military forces worldwide and will extend the range…

This story is absolutely wild, and it shows an unbelievable level of pettiness on the part of Lufthansa. At the same time, the airline kind of shot itself in the foot, as a judge ruled in favor of the passenger, forcing the airline to change its policy. Lufthansa demanded €414 from passenger for skipping segment A German lawyer recently shared an experience that he had defending a client who has Lufthansa’s top tier HON Circle status, which requires a massive amount of flying on the airline. In April 2025, he had booked a ticket from Greece to Saudi Arabia via…

Commander Guillaume Le Rasle of the French Navy told AFP that the sensitive infrastructure at the base “was not threatened”. Though he said it was too early to determine the origin of the drones, he believes the intent was to “alarm the public”.…
