About FlightTechTrends

FlightTechTrends is an aviation technology publication covering the systems, innovations, and engineering that make modern flight possible. We write for pilots, aviation professionals, and enthusiasts who want to understand how aircraft actually work—from fly-by-wire flight controls to next-generation avionics.

What We Cover

Our focus areas include:

• Flight Systems – Fly-by-wire, autopilot, flight control computers, and the technology that keeps aircraft stable and responsive
• Avionics – Glass cockpits, EFIS displays, GPS navigation, weather radar, and cockpit automation
• Propulsion Technology – Jet engines, geared turbofans, sustainable aviation fuel, and emerging electric propulsion
• Aircraft Development – New aircraft programs, composite materials, aerodynamic innovations, and manufacturing advances
• Safety Systems – TCAS, EGPWS, envelope protection, and the redundancy engineering that makes commercial aviation remarkably safe

Our Editorial Standards

Aviation is a field where accuracy matters. Our editorial process includes:

• Technical verification – We cross-reference specifications with manufacturer data, FAA documentation, and industry sources
• Clear sourcing – When we cite performance figures or safety statistics, we identify where that data comes from
• Regular updates – Aviation technology evolves constantly; we revisit and update articles as systems change
• Practical focus – We explain not just what technology does, but why it matters to pilots and passengers

Our Team

FlightTechTrends is written by aviation journalists and industry professionals with backgrounds in aerospace engineering, flight operations, and defense aviation. Our contributors include private pilots, former industry analysts, and writers who’ve covered aviation for over a decade.
