 Follow the leader... Flock of cranes learn to migrate by following a microlight aircraft
Follow the leader... Flock of cranes learn to migrate by following a microlight aircraft
Is it a bird? Well, no, it's a plane... but to these cranes it's mum.

Ever since they were hatched, they've been tricked into believing this featherless microlight is the parent they should follow.

But it's not some cruel joke by the chap in the yellow helmet. It is part of a project which conservationists hope will safeguard the species. picked by AutumnLotus 7 months ago

 Higher, Faster, Stronger: 1950s Experimental Aircraft
Higher, Faster, Stronger: 1950s Experimental Aircraft
The 1950s was the decade of the test pilot and the experimental aircraft, as aviation technology turned to the jet engine and pushed its limits in both speed and endurance. With the world divided in Cold War, the stakes were high. Jet aircraft dominated both U.S. and Soviet arsenals and the data returned by subsonic and supersonic test flights had implications for the coming space race as well. picked by deEPCHIll 1 year ago

Aircraft Black Box Recordings
**May bother some viewers** Recovered audio from aircraft black boxes. I'm amazed how calm many of these pilots and crew are! I wondered about posting this. I feel we owe a level of respect to these people. picked by ogri2003 3 years ago

Son of Concorde: New hypersonic airliner will fly to Australia in just over four hours
Flying at more than twice the speed of Concorde and five times the speed of sound, this hypersonic airliner is set to be the future of modern air travel. Looking like a supersonic passenger plane from Gerry Anderson's Thunderbirds, the revolutionary aircraft with a top speed of 3,400mph aims to fly between London (or Brussels)and Sydney in under five hours. picked by AutumnLotus 2 years ago
