Yesterday, Bell Helicopter revealed its third-generation tilt-rotor, what it calls the V-280 Valor. This is going to be the company's submission for the Joint Multirole (JMR)/Future Vertical Lift program, which is looking at developing a medium-lift high-speed rotorcraft to replace the Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk series in the 2030s.

Here is the Flightglobal story

Delete a directory with a trailing space in its name

by TinyApps.Org mail@tinyapps.org
We've seen the confusion a trailing space in a filename can cause. The same problem in a directory name stored on a FAT32-formatted flash drive made it impossible to delete under OS X with the usual workarounds, but Windows managed it via:
C:\>rd "\\?\e:\dirname "
For more information, see Cause 5: The file name includes a reserved name in the Win32 name space in this KB article: You cannot delete a file or a folder on an NTFS file system volume.
