Aviation is inseparably linked to the chase of speed. Since the first days of the powered flight, engineers and pilots have strived to create machines that will be capable of moving through the sky faster, higher, and cover more distance. What started with ruddy wooden planes, which were propelled by small engines, slowly transformed into […]
A Deep Dive into Massive Engineering Feats and Pivotal Automotive History
The encounter with the very large can reshape your perception of the concept of engineering, engineering and in the same way the capability of man to work big plans. A bigger-then-normal vehicle, a mega-hangar building the giant plane models you would see on the airport but to accommodate really giants planes, or even constructions to […]
The 10 Best Italian Planes We Can’t Actually Name
Italian planes have always had something of a je ne sais quoi about them. Whether it be speed, style, or some combination of the two, they seem to possess a certain je nais sais quoi. When people think of Italian design, they think of supercars and designer clothing, but there is no reason why aviation […]
From Bush Planes to Jets: Canada’s 10 Most Brilliant Aircraft

How Japan Ingeniously Melts Snow Using Warm Groundwater
When winter hits, nations facing big snowstorms face tough conditions. Slippery streets appear overnight. Footpaths grow risky to walk on. Traffic crawls instead of flows. Whole urban areas find it hard to operate amid fierce weather. Across various regions, large snow-clearing machines lead the response. Salts spread across surfaces help melt ice buildup. Workers stay […]
