Turbulence Solutions has demonstrated its real-time Turbulence Cancelling System (TCS) aboard a piloted test aircraft, showing more than 80% reduction in turbulence-induced vertical acceleration. Designed for use in both fixed-wing and advanced air mobility (AAM) aircraft, the technology uses sensors on the leading edge of the aircraft’s wing and active control surface deflections to counteract turbulent air in real time.

The company’s demonstrator aircraft—a Shark 600 dubbed Steady Eddy—has flown public demo missions and made appearances at Aero Friedrichshafen in Germany and Australia's Avalon 2025.
