Zitat des Tages über Luft- und Raumfahrt / Aerospace:
UTC is very well positioned to take advantage of 2 large megatrends: urbanization and the fast-growing commercial aerospace market.
UTC Aerospace Systems has a couple of million dollars of content on every single aircraft that gets delivered. That's the chutes, the electric system, rotors, etc.
I own a small aerospace company that does some business with the U.S. government.
I was interested in aerospace and flying, and the U.S. is really the best place in the world for flying.
I firmly believe a rising tide lifts all boats. I think having Airbus only grows and brings more attention to Alabama's entire aerospace and aviation industry. Listen, my goal is to bring good-paying jobs to our state and our region, regardless of what the company may be.
We are working with the power industry all over the world. We are meeting customers in aerospace and getting them to tour our plants.
Britain, however, has ended up specializing in the ones you don't see as much of: defense aerospace, making drive shafts for cars, pills and drugs, designing chips that go into 94 percent of the world's mobile phones.
After I finished my master's degree, I moved to a company called Aerospace Corporation, a big think tank for the U.S. Air Force and the National Reconnaissance Office.
Several other aerospace and defense firms have announced plans to build facilities in north Mississippi in recent weeks. They join an impressive group of high-tech companies already doing business in our region.
Science fiction was rocket-mad for about 40 years until aerospace hit a brick wall about 1970. I would not write off space colonisation or exploration completely, but we are profoundly ill adapted for going boldly into outer space.
In many critical things, such as the very high purity of the aluminium we need in aerospace, we only have one producer. That's not a good formula.
I don't know why I always liked aerospace engineering. I was in the 10th grade when I figured that's what I wanted to do.
The biggest benefit of Apollo was the inspiration it gave to a growing generation to get into science and aerospace.
I could be a lot happier. I could be the senator from Aerospace taking bribes, and be quite happy.
Goodrich was the biggest acquisition in the history of aerospace.
Fundamentally, we have broken our aerospace business into three parts - large parts which go into the wings and fuselage, components for jet engines, and specialised structural components for landing gear.
If the U.S. doesn't have an export credit agency, which is what the Export-Import Bank is, then we can't compete with other countries that do. Every other country in the world that competes in aerospace has an export credit agency.
People put themselves in difficult situations in lots of different areas. What you count on is people taking every precaution. The aerospace industry is unique in this aspect because a thousandths-of-an-inch mistake can cause spectacular failures.
My brother's an aerospace engineer who works for Boeing, and I started thinking, 'Well, my brother works nine hours a day at his job... What if I worked nine hours a day at being an actor?'
