On this day in 1919, the International Air Traffic Association (@IATA) was formed in The Hague, Holland. Though it would be replaced by the more sophisticated-sounding International Air Transport Association (also IATA) in 1945, the original IATA was the airline industry’s first global effort to unite and carve out the rules and regulations to keep aviation safe, economical, and collaborative. More recently, the organization has focused on working with member airlines to commit to achieving net-zero carbon emissions from their operations by 2050, in line with supporting efforts of the Paris Agreement's temperature goal. As the IATA has stated, success will require the coordinated efforts of the entire industry (airlines, airports, air navigation service providers, manufacturers) and significant government support.

“National Aviation Day,” created by Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1939 and designating Orville Wright’s (of the Wright Brothers) birthday as a day for celebrating the aviation industry and the engineers, pilots, and enthusiasts who’ve made it one of the most important industries in the world. The 85 years since the holiday was established have seen a lot of changes, from the astronomic growth of intercontinental connectivity, to the experimentation with commercialized supersonic travel, to countless boundaries broken and records set. It’s particularly notable this year as ExxonMobil Aviation celebrates 120 years of human flight, starting with the Wright Brothers historic first flight at Kitty Hawk in 1903. That significant milestone stands as a testament to the relentlessly pioneering human spirit and our global community’s capability for growth and change in the face of new challenges and technology. What the next 120 years hold is anyone’s guess. One thing’s for sure: we’re going to go higher, farther, and faster than ever before. Nonstop.

Ready for take-off in Britain! 🛫 We are excited to share we have completed our new Southampton to London jet fuel pipeline extending 100km from ExxonMobil Fawley directly to Heathrow Airport. Many years in the making, this pipeline represents a £250m investment in supply chain logistics strengthening our ability to provide dedicated and secure supply from refinery to wingtip. ExxonMobil Fawley has been connecting Britain to the world for over half a century. With 1 in 4 flights leaving Heathrow fueled by ExxonMobil, the completion of this project could also play a pivotal role in the industry’s transition to sustainable aviation fuel in the future as the industry’s energy needs evolve. ExxonMobil customers can count on supply chain reliability backed by a dedicated logistics network and a team of experienced fuels experts.

Aviation fact or fiction? “Because aviation lubricant formulations are highly regulated and remain the same for years or decades at a time, aviation lubricant manufacturers’ supply chains are exposed to less risk than manufacturers in other industries.” False – Maintaining steady production of aviation-grade lubricants involves a veritable juggling act of business continuity planning. Large manufacturers like ExxonMobil have product lines of jet oils, hydraulic fluids, and greases that can comprise more than 75 different components from dozens of different suppliers. Every aviation lubricant formulation must pass a rigorous approval process before it can be certified for use. A new product can take decades to get certified; swapping a single ingredient for another with a minor chemical difference requires recertification that can take years; and even replacing a component with a chemically identical substitute from a different supplier will necessitate a one-two year recertification. #aviation #trueorfalse

July 26, 2016, Solar Impulse 2 landed in Abu Dhabi to eager crowds and cameras. After 14 months of travel and 550 hours in the air, the plane had accomplished what many had deemed impossible: traveling 25,000 miles around the world—over four continents, two oceans and three seas—without a drop of liquid fuel.   Only the future can show us for certain how battery technology will change aviation, but the past has taught us that milestones like this aren’t to be ignored. Just as we were with the Wright Brothers, Charles Lindbergh, Amelia Earhart, Jeana Yeager and Dick Rutan, ExxonMobil plans to play a key role in how battery technology changes flight — and to support the brilliant engineers who make this transformation possible.   Be sure to visit the 120 Years non-stop site, and check back often for the latest updates: https://bit.ly/45kHZCV   #aviation #history #solarimpulse2
