Airship NOVA-2: working meeting of the AERONOVA team

29 April 2025

More about the project.

A working meeting of the design and engineering team was held at the AERONOVA office. The main topic of discussion was the development of the gondola for the NOVA-2 airship.

What was discussed?

• Reviewed key structural solutions: the design of the structural framework, engine mounting, and component placement.
• Discussed load distribution and requirements for the strength and reliability of the structure.
• Conducted an analysis of options to enhance the rigidity and aerodynamics of the components.
• Raised issues concerning adherence to deadlines and planning of subsequent work stages.

The main task now is to create a strong, lightweight, and safe structure that can withstand all necessary loads. To make the gondola as efficient as possible, safety and quality should take precedence over deadlines!

What's next?

• We will complete the structural design.
• We will conduct additional strength calculations.
• We will prepare for the next stage of assembly and testing.

As you can see, with your support we are actively moving forward.
