🚨 Is 5G Dangerous for Airplanes?

When 5G networks went live near airports, airlines canceled flights, regulators sounded alarms, and headlines warned of “catastrophic interference.”

But what really happened behind aviation’s biggest tech scare?

🎥 In this video, we unpack the full story — how 5G collided with flight safety, what the FAA and telecoms got wrong (and right), and why the issue isn’t fully grounded yet.

✈️ Watch now to see why the 5G-aircraft controversy changed how aviation handles emerging technology.

👉 Is Boeing Finally Turning the Corner?

After years of safety crises, production halts, and intense regulatory scrutiny, Boeing may be entering a long-awaited recovery phase.

In this new Aircraft Value News video analysis, Editor-in-Chief John Persinos examines:
🔹 The FAA’s decision to partially restore Boeing’s certification powers
🔹 CEO Kelly Ortberg’s leadership and cultural reforms
🔹 The company’s race with Airbus to regain market share
🔹 The potential mega-order from China that could redefine Boeing’s future

Watch now to see whether Boeing’s comeback is real—or just another short-lived turnaround story.

✈️ Did you know most airlines don’t actually own the planes you fly on?

Over 58% of the global fleet is leased, controlled by powerful lessors you’ve probably never heard of—AerCap, Avolon, SMBC Aviation Capital, BOC Aviation, and Air Lease Corporation.

In our latest video, we break down:
✔️ Why airlines lease instead of buy
✔️ The top “Sky Kings” shaping global aviation
✔️ How China is shaking up the leasing market
✔️ What this means for airlines—and passengers like you

👉 Watch now:

Leasing has become the preferred option for airlines, rising from roughly 10% of the total fleet in the 1970s to about 58% in 2025. John Persinos explores the pros and cons of leasing’s growing power.

🚨 The Airbus A380: Marvel or Mistake? 🚨

When it first launched, the A380 was hailed as the future of long-haul travel—a double-decker super jumbo that could carry more than 800 passengers.

But despite its grandeur, the A380 has become one of aviation’s most fascinating miscalculations.

In this exclusive Aircraft Value News video presentation, Editor-in-Chief John Persinos takes you inside the rise, fall, and lingering legacy of the world’s largest passenger jet.

✈️ Is China building the next aerospace superpower — or just chasing sky-high hype?

For decades, Boeing and Airbus have dominated the skies. Now China is determined to break into the duopoly with its own jetmaker, COMAC.

In my latest video, I break down:

- China’s post-pandemic surge in aviation
- How its leasing giants are reshaping global fleets
- Why new direct flights mean so much to the Chinese diaspora
- And the big obstacles that still stand in the way

The turbulence is real. The story is unfolding now.

🚀 From Battlefield to Boarding Gate ✈️

Did you know many of today’s aviation technologies—from GPS to composites—originated in defense?

In his latest exclusive video, Aircraft Value News Editor-in-Chief John Persinos breaks down one of the most surprising partnerships in aviation: L3Harris teaming up with Joby Aviation to develop a military version of Joby’s VTOL air taxi.

👉 Why it matters:

Defense innovation is shaping the commercial aircraft you fly every day.

Military budgets are influencing aircraft values and lease rates.

The future of autonomy, hypersonics, and advanced materials is closer than you think.

✈️ Would you fly on a plane with no pilots?
Autonomous aviation is no longer science fiction—it’s here. From military drones to AI copilots, the future of pilotless passenger flights is closer than you think.

In his new video, John Persinos examines:
✅ The $28B autonomous aircraft market
✅ Breakthroughs in AI, UAVs, and cybersecurity
✅ Why the biggest barrier is not tech—but passenger trust

🎥 Watch the full presentation here:

The question is not whether we can build a fully autonomous passenger plane, but whether people will trust it. Here's a global view.
