Bombardier started 2014 with the first flight of the second CSeries test aircraft, nicknamed FTV2 on January 3rd. Originally expected to fly about a month after the FTV1, which flew in September, this vehicle, like its brethren, was rumored to be delayed by software updates to the fly-by-wire system, but is finally airborne.

About Jetminder


The photography of the beauty of aviation, the soaring bird and the sky that both the bird, and man's flying machines fly through have been a life long passion of mine as well as guitars is what my blog is about. I strive to find the dynamics that make these things happen and my aviation photography is used to take all of this beauty out of "the box."

Our cameras see beauty that the human eye will never see as the camera does one thing that the human mind is very week at, and that is to focus in detail beyond the human imagination.

I hope that you will have liked what you have seen.Thank you for your time in visiting this my blog.

Slightly Aerodynamically Unstable

Slightly Aerodynamically Unstable
The F-16 was the first production fighter aircraft intentionally designed to be slightly aerodynamically unstable.[43] This technique, called "relaxed static stability" (RSS), was incorporated to further enhance the aircraft's maneuver performance. Most aircraft are designed with positive static stability, which induces an aircraft to return to its original attitude following a disturbance
