ARINC 429 and MIL-STD-1553 are data bus standards used widely for avionics systems. ARINC 429 is mainly used in commercial aircraft while MIL-STD-1553 is ideal for real-time mission-critical applications. The MIL-STD-1553 is a military-grade avionics data bus created over 40 years ago by the US Department of Defense. First used in the General Dynamics F-16 fighter aircraft, it has since become a widely adopted data bus used in various military and civil transport aircraft. ARINC-429 was designed in the 1970s (part of Boeing 757/767 development) to ensure interoperability between various systems of the aircraft like navigation, guidance, and flight management computers to accomplish a successful flight.

Necessity is the mother of inventions; we experience it now

According to a report by MDPI, maintenance is a leading

In the fast-paced world of aviation, safety is paramount, and the Aircraft Health Monitoring System (AHMS) emerges as a vital defender of the skies. Aircraft Health Monitoring Systems (AHMS) uses real-time data from multiple sensors that are integrated into aircraft components/parts to increase aircraft safety and reliability. AHMS consists of hardware and software instruments, solutions, and techniques that conduct remote surveillance of aircraft to learn their present or potential serviceability.

Hybrid-electric propulsion aircraft is becoming a viable alternative propulsion technology for the aviation sector in parallel with the automotive industry and demonstrates potential advantages, including fuel savings, lower pollution, and reduced noise pollution. In this blog we will explore what is a hybrid electric aircraft, how is power produced in hybrid electric aircraft and hybrid electric propulsion system.
