Im sorry, but I am a rotor-wing aircraft inthusiast and I can't help it if I look at helicopters and UCARs rather that airplanes and UCAVs most often. So, expect a lot of verticle aircraft here. But, for the airplane inthusiasts here, I'll see what I can find.

That is alright, even if you're the pure helicopter type, I understand. Well, I wonder if unmanned helicopters will have something. I do remember one scout helicopter such as the Kiowa do have something interesting.

Beautiful! Especially I love the Bell "Eagle Eye" that nearly resembles the V-22 Osprey. But for the recon work, I recommend to stick with the Global Hawk instead.

The Aeromech Division is developing a new helicopter. The design is supposed to be similar to the Hughes MD-500 and the Robinson R-44 with a regular tail rotor or the much better NOTAR technology. It is called the QAC-821 utility helicopter. I think its a hybrid project as well. ( NOTAR means no tail rotor) Here is the site I found this information on: www.quantumworks.com/QAC_index.html

Have you been reading older posts lately, Italian? Don't do that, hence one of the staffs said so. I also saw you have been resurrecting old threads as well, please stop that.
For this thread, please keep yourself up-to-date, Stingray here is a helicopter fan, you better stay on topic with him, I've been here for some time, and he doesn't talk much about any planes lately.
Here's a tip on when or when not to reply : Look at the dates which the post was posted.

With pleasure, Stingray, it's just Italian mostly reply to older posts, which I saw that habit in any sections I encounter in this forum. Anyway, that is alright if you bring any planes here. Well, got any news on the new Boeing 787? I haven't been hearing it for sometime, will Airbus build another new plane? PS : By the way, the link you showed me cannot allow to view it unless login, you can view it, but I can't.

Well, your gonna love the forum I got that picture from. Its called SecretProjects.com and here's the full link to the homepage: www.secretprojects.co.uk/forum/index.phpIf you want, a simple regestration will allow you to view all of the images and, well, other stuff. ;D Im afraid this is the only place to find this aircraft and other true secret and unknown projects. Google won't help. Oh, and for the Boeing 787, there is a small "chat" about it here at the SecretProjects forum, but thats all I could find: www.secretprojects.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,2557.0/highlight,boeing+787.html I do know it has reached prototype stage and is rolling in-and-out of hangers now. I have images here:

Whow! The inside is so beautiful! Hmm, as for the rival Airbus, will they build another plane since after they completed the A380? A380 already beat the Boeing 747, so what's next, military planes?

I have not come across info yet, but I think there was a plan to make a military cargo/transport version to replace the C-5 or something. Look it up at SecretProjects. Its probably hiding there somewhere.

Well, sorry, I've been busy with projects, so I can't surf in many forums neither any forums I love. Currently not just busy with projects, I'm also aiming at collecting episodes from Youtube before they'll get wiped out by Viacom. Sorry, mate, but thanks.
