RAVN Aerospace’s Post

Wow time flies! Four years ago we had the "Combat & Test Pilot, Engineer & Executive, and Aviation Legend" (and 2019 Nikolsky Honorary Lectureship winner) Nick Lappos give an amazing talk to our chapter. Who would YOU like to see at our next meeting? #engineering #vtol #aviation #verticalflight

🌟 Mid-Year Spotlight: Excellence in Action 🌟 As we reach the halfway point of 2024, we want to celebrate the incredible talent and dedication of our team. Our success in the first half of the year is driven by the exceptional work of our technicians and engineers, those who’ve been with us for a while and those who have joined us recently. They have all worked to ensure every project meets the highest standards of quality and safety. Some of our highlights include: ✈ Transforming retired passenger planes into efficient freighters ✈ Collaborating across departments to innovate and improve our processes ✈ Meeting the future of our industry ✈ Attending events ✈ Hiring, Hiring and Hiring some more. Our commitment to excellence not only keeps aircraft flying longer but also advances the industry. 📸 Check out these snapshots from our hangar in Fort Worth, where precision meets passion. #AspireMRO #TeamSpotlight #AviationExcellence #MidYearReview #BehindTheScenes #AerospaceEngineering

Well done Aurora Flight Sciences and Bell Textron for advancing to the next phase of DARPA's SPRINT X-plane competition! While we applaud their success, it seems Northrop Grumman and Piasecki Aircraft Corp. may have missed the mark this time. Perhaps they should have called CRG! As we move forward with this groundbreaking program, it's crucial to outline the critical next steps to ensure its success. Firstly, Aurora and Bell must focus on completing the preliminary design work for their aircraft within the one-year timeframe allocated for Phase 1B. This entails refining their designs to meet the ambitious goals of the SPRINT program, including vertical takeoff and landing capabilities, speeds of 400 to 450 knots, and the ability to hover in austere environments. Simultaneously, DARPA and SOCOM should provide necessary support and resources to the selected performers, facilitating collaboration and innovation throughout the design process. Regular milestone reviews and technical evaluations will be essential to track progress and address any challenges that may arise. Looking beyond the immediate programmatic goals, there are ample opportunities for industry to contribute to and benefit from the advancements made in SPRINT. Companies specializing in advanced propulsion systems, aerodynamics, autonomous technologies, and materials science can leverage their expertise to support Aurora, Bell, and other future participants in the program. At CRG, we stand ready to assist industry partners in navigating the complexities of government contracts, from proposal development to project execution. Our extensive experience in winning and managing relevant work positions us as a valuable resource for companies seeking to contribute to cutting-edge initiatives like SPRINT. Together, we can drive innovation, strengthen national defense capabilities, and shape the future of aerospace technology. CRG’s SMEs & dedicated teams excel in providing comprehensive pre- and post-award support.
