Beyond Simulation: The Age of the "Loyal Wingman" Becomes Reality in the Skies Over Çorlu

  Technical analysis of the K-SWARM programme: how collaboration between Leonardo and Baykar brought Crewed/Uncrewed Teaming from simulation to flight validation   For more than a decade, the concept of Crewed/Uncrewed Teaming (CUC‑T) has been viewed as one of the key elements in the evolution of aerial combat. The ability for a crewed aircraft to operate in coordination with one or more uncrewed vehicles, sharing data and tactical tasks, is in fact one of the pillars of the future sixth‑generation combat systems.   Until now, however, most of the development has taken place within digital laboratories, advanced simulators and Hardware‑in‑the‑Loop (HIL) environments.   The recent test campaign conducted at Baykar’s flight test centre in Çorlu, Turkey, marks instead a historic turning point: for the first time, the K‑SWARM programme has transferred algorithms and architectures developed in the digital domain ...

Training: Why the "Three Women, a Single Sky" Series Was Born


​The sky is not an empty space. Anyone working in this sector knows that the space above our heads is, in reality, a dense ecosystem of rules, cutting-edge technology, and human responsibility. Often, however, those looking up from the ground only see a passing aircraft, without perceiving the invisible balance that sustains it.

​It is from this awareness that my new editorial project, "Three Women, a Single Sky", is born.

​A Technical Narrative, Not Just Literature

​The goal of this series is not to offer a simple novel, but a technical narrative. Through the stories of three professionals, we will enter the operational heart of aviation:

  • Ava: Navigating the transition from military to civil piloting, where a tactical mindset must merge with airline standard operating procedures.
  • Sofia: The world of the hangars, where mechanical engineering and maintenance ensure the airworthiness of complex machines.
  • Isabella: Cabin safety too often reduced to simple service, yet representing the final bulwark for passenger protection.

​Volume One: The Training

​In this first book, we explore the foundations. Without rigorous and continuous training, safety does not exist. We follow the protagonists as they face daily challenges, analyze historical accidents, and integrate new technological platforms.

​Aviation is a sector where the "behind the scenes" is as fascinating as flight itself. With this series, I want to pay tribute to those who dedicate their lives to this profession, carrying a weight that is invisible every day: the weight of responsibility.
