Gulf Aerospace, Inc. is a trusted leader in aviation accessory repair in the United States. The Federal Aviation Administration has certified the Department of Defense contractor for military and commercial Accessory Class 1 and 2 aircraft parts maintenance (FAA) . The Gulfstream G500 and G600 (GVII[8]) are Gulfstream Aerospace’s twin-engine business jets. In preparation for steep-approach certification next year, the G500 and G600 have recently demonstrated short field competence in London City, Lugano and Sion. They each set a city-pair record run on their way back to the United States.
“The takeoff and landing performance we demonstrated in Europe was key in the process of securing customers’ access to even more locations worldwide, saving them even more valuable hours per year,” said Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream. “Our customers already benefit from Gulfstream’s high-speed performance advantage when flying, and the investment we’ve made in flight testing and continuous improvement delivers even more value with increased flexibility.”
Despite strong headwinds, the G500 flew 3,077 nautical miles/5,699 kilometres to Teterboro Airport near New York in just 6 hours and 46 minutes, breaking the previous record by 12 minutes.The G600 achieved a new speed record by flying from London to Seattle in under 8 hours and 39 minutes, covering 4,235 nautical miles (7,843 kilometres). The G600 has been certified by the FAA and EASA for increased takeoff performance on grooved runways in wet circumstances, and the G500 will be certified in early 2022.This makes it easier for planes to land on a slick runway

Boeing has achieved a significant milestone by providing NASA with the second core stage of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket.
This crucial component, crafted at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility (MAF), is set to propel the Artemis II crew into lunar orbit, marking humanity’s return to deep space after a 50-year hiatus.
The monumental Boeing-built rocket stage, the largest element of the Artemis II mission, will embark on a journey aboard the Pegasus barge, traveling 900 miles to NASA’s Kennedy Space Center.

Upon arrival, it will be meticulously integrated with other essential Artemis II components, including the upper stage, solid rocket boosters, and NASA’s Orion spacecraft within the iconic Vehicle Assembly Building. This intricate integration process is a vital step toward the eagerly anticipated Artemis II launch, slated for 2025.
“Boeing-built products helped land humankind on the moon in 1969, and we’re proud to continue that legacy through the Artemis generation,” remarked Dave Dutcher, vice president and program manager for Boeing’s SLS program. “Together, with NASA and our industry partners and suppliers, we are building the world’s most capable rocket and paving the way to deep space through America’s rocket factory in New Orleans.”

The delivery of Core Stage 2 marks a significant achievement in the evolution of the SLS rocket. Towering over 200 feet and powered by four RS-25 engines, this core stage, coupled with two solid-fueled booster rockets, will generate a staggering 8.8 million pounds of thrust. This immense power is crucial to launching Artemis II and future missions into the vast expanse of space.
The SLS rocket stands unparalleled in its capability to transport both crew and substantial cargo to the moon and beyond in a single launch. Its extraordinary capacity will facilitate the delivery of human-rated spacecraft, habitats, and scientific missions to destinations including the moon and Mars, ushering in a new era of space exploration.
