Cover -- Editorial -- Guidelines for the development of the quality of aircraft bevel gears -- Analysis of possibilities for modification of drill bit geometrical parameters used to drill holes in composite materials of various composition -- DEA-based transport heliports' efficiencies evaluation -- Cost analysis for a future helicopter for passenger transport -- Powder recyclability in electron beam melting for aeronautical use -- Advanced flexible automation cell control for aerospace manufacturing -- Preliminary evaluation of the fatigue behaviour of aluminium alloy in corrosive environment -- Powerful zero-point-energy converter - theory and experiment -- A new method for producing magnesium alloy twin-rib aircraft brackets.

This issue of Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology: An International Journal is directly linked to the yearly organized International Conference, "Supply on the Wings", which is part of the AIRTEC congress embedded in the International Aerospace Supply Fair AIRTEC (www.airtec.aero) held in Frankfurt, Germany. The last conference was on 5-7 November 2013 and covered scientific and industrial presentations, connecting practice and science by more than 100 speakers from 20 nations. The nine articles selected for publication deal with different solutions for future aerospace challenges in the areas of gears, drilling, new concepts for helicopters, manufacturing, materials and an alternative energy concept.
