This platform is a resource for any drone pilots who want to take photos and videos in and around St. Moritz. You will also find information about flying areas, regulations and licensing here. It is also possible to obtain approval to fly your drone using this online form. If you receive a license, this is an express waiver and must be adhered to exactly as stated. Because there is a no-fly zone in the five kilometres around an airfield or heliport, there is always a drone ban in these areas. The exception to this are small drones up to 500 grams, and even these smaller drones can have serious consequences for people and air traffic and must be flown responsibly. In addition, all drone flights are prohibited in protected wildlife areas and over large crowds.
Drone flights 5 km around the Engadin Airport in Samedan and the St. Moritz heliport as well as over hunting areas are forbidden. This includes the following municipalities: La Punt, Bever, Samedan, Celerina, Pontresina, St. Moritz, Silvaplana.
Exceptions to this prohibition may be obtained through the online form. Since December 1st, 2018, only licensed pilots receive a drone flight exception. Those who are not licensed pilots may use their drone to shoot photos or video in the company of a licensed pilot.
All frequently asked questions about drones can be found at www.bazl.admin.ch/faq. The Engadiner Post published an informative article about drones in the Engadin focusing on the dangers and benefits of civilians flying drones. Download Article.

Detailed information about flying rules available at www.bazl.admin.ch/rules.
Every drone makes its way back to earth eventually thanks to gravity. The question is how and where. In order to answer it, one must have certain technical and legal knowledge as well as practice in flying a drone/multicopter. For this reason, the TCS and 1a Luftaufnahmen offer “Beginner” and “Basic” courses. The beginner course is aimed at aspiring drone pilots and the basic course requires some prior experience in handling drones.
Since early 2018, with two course options “Uno” and “Due,” one can train to become a licensed pilot and earn money by making their passion into a profession. As of December 1, 2018, pilots need a DUE license to be granted a drone flight exemption in the Upper Engadin. Drone pilots who do not have this license must use their drone to take recordings in the company of a licensed pilot. | aerospace |

Starting March 31, 2019, Finnair will add a new daily frequency to and from London Heathrow, operated with an A320 family aircraft. The new flight, which will leave Helsinki at 11:40, and the return flight that leaves London at 13:50, offer connection opportunities from London with Finnair’s OneWorld partners.
In addition, Finnair will increase its capacity on the London route by uprating the 16:00 flight between Helsinki and London, as well as the 18:10 flight from London to Helsinki, with an Airbus A330 wide-body aircraft. The move will provide more than 50 additional seats per flight compared to the current A321 narrow-body aircraft. Finnair currently flies an Airbus A350 aircraft daily for the first flight leaving Helsinki in the morning and for the return flight from London. The company says that passengers travelling from London via Helsinki to Finnair’s Asian destinations will have a seamless business class experience with full-flat seats for travel to Asia and back.
‘Finnair’s presence in London and in the UK has been growing steadily over the past few years and we are pleased to add capacity on this important route for Finnair,’ said Christian Lesjak, senior vice president, Network and Resource Management at Finnair. ‘By adding the new midday frequency and flying an additional wide-body aircraft on the route, we will be able to offer even more flexibility and network connections for our customers.’
In summer 2019, Finnair will operate up to seven daily flights between Helsinki and London, including two frequencies with a wide-body aircraft. With the announced changes, Finnair will be adding approximately 21 percent more capacity on the route compared to the previous summer 2018 season. | aerospace |

"The purchase and conversion of these 767s is a perfect example of how UPS is making smart investments to fuel profitable growth," said UPS Airlines president Brendan Canavan. "This extension of our relationship with Boeing will help expand the safe, reliable and on-time services we provide for our customers all over the world."
UPS and Boeing have been partnering on airlift since 1981, when UPS purchased its first 727s to begin its Next Day Air operation, and the transportation giant was Boeing's launch customer for the 767 freighter in 1995.
"It's a privilege for us to supply and support UPS with Boeing Converted Freighters," said Stan Deal, president and CEO, Boeing Global Services. "With more than 40 years of experience in passenger-to-freighter conversions, Boeing has a deep understanding of the needs of the air cargo industry. This order is an endorsement of the value of that knowledge and the customer service experience we provide." | aerospace |

The authors' intention of presenting this paper is to share experience of photogrammetry missions carried by the UAV. Relevant knowledge was gained by participation in the Polish- Norwegian Research project named MONICA (oriented on aerial monitoring of impact of climate change on the Antarctic ecosystems). The basic aim of the photogrammetry mission is to provide the ortophotomap which consists of a set of merged ortophotos. There are several factors that contribute to achieving successful results from photogrammetry missions, namely parameters of a photogrammetric grid together with an orientation and a quality of the ortophotos. The effectiveness of photogrametry work depends on dynamic properties of the UAV and the accuracy of the flight trajectory over the intended photogrammetric grid. This accuracy is influenced by the elements such as wind and turbulence. Another important problem in question is programming the turns at the ends of the photogrammetric-grid lines by inserting the net of some additional points in those lines. It helps the autopilot to follow a fixed flight path after each turn. In relation to that, the authors present some methods of flight-path planning with either their advantages or disadvantages. | aerospace |

transfuge irakien qui a livré un MiG 21 à Israël en 1966 (Ce MiG 21 a été envoyé aux Etats-Unis pour des tests) :
Munir Redfa (1934 – circa 1998) was an Iraqi fighter pilot, of ethnic Assyrian origin, who defected to Israel in 1966 by flying a MiG-21 of the Iraqi Air Force. In what is considered as one of the Mossad’s most successful operations. The MiG-21 fighter was evaluated by the Israeli Air Force and was later loaned to the United States for testing and intelligence analysis. Knowledge obtained from analysis of the aircraft was instrumental to the successes achieved by the Israeli Air Force in its future encounters with Arab MiG-21s.
Transfuge polonais au début de la guerre froide :
On March 5, 1953, Polish Lt. Franciszek Jarecki flew from Słupsk (Polish Air Force Base) to Rønne Airport on Bornholm Island in a MiG-15bis (No 346) – a modern Soviet fighter. Western air specialists checked the aircraft. Jarecki, however, went to the United States, where he provided much important information about modern Soviet aircraft and air tactics.
Yak-23 qui a fait défection de Roumanie en Yougoslavie et qui a été transporté aux Etats-Unis
A single Yak-23 was acquired by US intelligence, via Yugoslavia, in November, 1953. It was a Romanian Yak-23 flown by Mihail Diaconu who defected with it. The aircraft arrived disassembled, and was shipped to the Air Force Test and Evaluation Center at Wright Field near Dayton, Ohio. It was reassembled and made operational for several flight tests, during which time it was disguised with U.S. markings.

The space shuttle Renaissance
faced the early-morning sky at Cape Canaveral. Its enormous fuel tanks and boosters dwarfed the vessel as it towered over the launch pad. The launch tower pulled away, leaving the shuttle and its booster rockets clear for flight. It was a beautiful morning, the last Colonel Shaun Christopher would see for more than six months. It would be winter the next time he set foot on Earth. Assuming all goes well,
Inside the cockpit, Shaun was strapped into his seat, staring up at the nose of the ship. A flight suit and helmet provided meager protection from the titanic forces about to be unleashed. The Atlantic Ocean could be glimpsed out the starboard window. A pair of old-fashioned military dog tags dangled above the lighted instrument panel in front of him. A good-luck charm, the tags had accompanied him into space before.
“Ready to go, Colonel?” the pilot sitting next to him said. Commander Shirin Ludden was among the first of a new breed of shuttle pilots. She seemed shockingly young to Shaun, who was in his early fifties.
“You tell me,” he answered. “I’m just a passenger on this flight.”
Despite their banter, the launch procedure continued on schedule. The sound-and-heat-suppression system fired up far below the cockpit, but Shaun could feel the vibration from all that water where he was sitting. He and Ludden closed the visors on their flight helmets. He took a deep breath of piped-in oxygen. The entire shuttle trembled as the launch engines gradually came online. Shaun felt a familiar excitement growing inside him.
had been intended to be the first in a new fleet of second-generation shuttles, but then the aerospace bubble had gone bust, cratering the economy again and creating entire districts of homeless people in many of the world’s cities. The latest round of budget cuts had left the Renaissance
as a one-of-a-kind prototype, kept alive primarily by private investors and international partners who couldn’t afford to build ships on their own. She was an impressive vessel, state-of-the-art. A shame she had to fly alone.
Still, at least she would get him where he was going. “Launch minus ten seconds . . .”
The engines ignited, and the shuttle strained to escape the eight-inch metal bolts holding it down. The spaceplane swayed violently before turning its nose back up toward the sky. Computerized systems went through their paces. Even though Ludden was nominally the pilot, the launch was out of her hands now. Rattling inside the cockpit, Shaun braced himself for what came next. A grin spread across his rugged face.
This never got old. “Five . . . four . . . three . . . two . . . one . . .” Liftoff!
Explosive charges blew away the hold-down bolts. The Renaissance
blasted into the sky atop an inverted geyser of fire and smoke. Shaun was slammed back into his seat, then shaken back and forth like a rat in a dog’s jaws. The shuttle rocketed up from the Cape, leaving Mother Earth far behind. The booster rockets fell away, having done the heavy lifting. Shaun felt a twinge of relief; like most astronauts, he felt safer rid of those enormous Roman candles. The bumpy ride quickly leveled off as the bright blue sky before him gave way to the blackness of the upper atmosphere.
The g-forces pressing down on him felt like an elephant standing on his chest. Shaun gritted his teeth; this part did get old after the first few minutes. He craned his neck to try to read the gauges on the instrument panel. So far, everything looked okay, although the elephant seemed to have gained weight since the last time he took this ride. Or maybe that’s just me.
Just when he thought he couldn’t take it anymore, the elephant disappeared as though conjured away by a Las Vegas magician. One last jerk shook the ship as the empty fuel tank fell away. The pressure on Shaun abruptly went from three g’s to zero. His body lifted away from the seat cushions, held in place only by his safety straps. Glancing at the instrument panel, he saw the lucky dog tags floating weightlessly. We did it, Dad,
he thought. We’re in space. Again.
The tags had been worn by his father, Captain John Christopher, during his Air Force jet-pilot days. The senior Christopher had applied to the astronaut program back in the 1960s but hadn’t quite made the cut. Shaun had taken his dad’s tags up with him on every mission, so that even though the real John Christopher had only watched the liftoff from the bleachers eight miles away, he was also flying beside his son.
“So much for the fireworks,” Ludden said, sounding almost disappointed that the thrill-ride component of the launch was over. “Smooth sailing from now on.”
“Knock on wood,” Shaun said.
She used the shuttle’s smaller space engines to guide the Renaissance
into orbit approximately four hundred kilometers above Earth. Circling the planet at some twenty-nine thousand kilometers per hour, she rotated the shuttle so that its belly faced outward away from Earth. The engines cut off, and the cockpit was suddenly so quiet that Shaun could hear the fans and air filters whirring, along with his own breathing inside the helmet. The payload bay doors opened, exposing their cargo to the vacuum. This was standard procedure in space and essential to the next stage of their mission.
“Tell you the truth,” Ludden said, “I wish I was going all the way with you.”
“Now, Commander, you know NASA frowns on that kind of fraternization.”
She punched him in the shoulder. “You know what I mean. This is just a taxi ride to the airport. You’re making the real trip.”
“Maybe next time,” Shaun said to console her.
“Well, let’s make sure you don’t miss your flight.”
The shuttle’s launch was just the first leg of a much longer journey. Shaun waited impatiently, occupying himself with routine flight operations, while the shuttle caught up with his destination. Hours passed before Ludden nudged him.
“Heads up,” she said. “There’s your ride up ahead.”
Peering through the cockpit window, he glimpsed a bright reflective object cruising above them. At first, it was only a shiny lure in the distance, but as they closed on the other vessel, a truly awe-inspiring spacecraft came into view. More than forty-five meters long, the ship was many times larger than the Renaissance
and resembled several large tour buses linked together. Its modular components had been assembled in orbit over the course of the last five years. Shaun could count them off one by one: engine assembly, communications array, cargo bay, crew habitat, and command module. The impulse thrusters fanned out from the tail of the ship, while a docking ring was attached to the nose of the command module. Antennae, EVA rails, and signal dishes sprouted from the ship’s silvery titanium-polymer hull, although its delicate solar panels had been retracted in anticipation of breaking orbit. Additional insulation and padding protected the habitat. Lights shone in the windows. A NASA logo was emblazoned on the side of the cargo bay, along with the name of the vessel: U.S.S. Lewis & Clark.
Ludden whistled in appreciation. “Quite a ship.”
Shaun had to agree. Even though he had trained on simulators, had familiarized himself with the individual modules on Earth, and already knew pretty much every inch of the ship by heart, he took a moment to admire it in its natural environment. Savor the moment,
he thought. There had been times, during the economic roller coaster of the last few years, when he had wondered if the Lewis & Clark
would ever get finished at all.
But here it was, waiting for him.
to Lewis & Clark.
” Ludden hailed the other vessel. Like Shaun, she had shed her helmet and flight gear in favor of a comfy blue NASA jumpsuit. “Initiating docking procedure.”
Renaissance,” a husky female voice answered via ship-to-ship radio. “We’re ready on our end.”
The shuttle approached the larger spaceship from below. Onboard computers and laser-guidance systems steered the shuttle toward the docking ring. The Renaissance
’s own docking mechanism was located in the forward payload bay, just aft of the crew compartment, so the shuttle presented its open back to the nose of the other ship. Multiple redundant systems ensured that the shuttle remained exactly on track. Ludden eyeballed it through the window, while Shaun watched the docking ring grow larger on a small television monitor. Even with the guidance systems constantly checking the shuttle’s range, speed, and trajectory relative to the other ship, frequent small course corrections were required to stay on course. Ludden worked the brake and thruster control sticks like an expert, taking her time. By the time the ships were less than ten meters apart, the Renaissance
was approaching the other vessel at roughly one-tenth of a foot per second. Pale yellow vapor jetted from the forward thrusters with each momentary burn.
Ludden’s face was a portrait of concentration. “Almost there,” she muttered under her breath. “Just a few meters more . . .” Contact!
The ships came together with a gentle bump, less jolting than a 747 touching down on the tarmac. Automatic latches grabbed onto the shuttle and pulled the two spacecraft together, creating an air... | aerospace |

Clarence D. “Lucky” Lester (February 23, 1923 – March 17, 1986) was an African-American fighter pilot in the 332nd Fighter Group, commonly known as the Tuskegee Airmen, during World War II. He was one of the first African-American military aviators in the United States Army Air Corps, the United States Army Air Forces and later the United States Air Force. Lester was one of two pilots who shot down three Focke-Wulf Fw 190 or Messerschmitt Bf 109 on a single mission; the other pilot was Captain Joseph Elsberry. Lester flew a P-51 Mustang nicknamed "Miss Pelt."
World War II
The Tuskegee Airmen is the popular name of a group of African-American military pilots (fighter and bomber) who fought in World War II. They formed the 332nd Fighter Group and the 477th Bombardment Group of the United States Army Air Forces. The name also applies to the navigators, bombardiers, mechanics, instructors, crew chiefs, nurses, cooks and other support personnel. Lester recalls that "Being a black pilot in the 1940s was like being a pro athlete today ... We knew we were special, that we would have to prove something. This was the first chance blacks had had outside of working in the kitchen or the possiblity [sic] of being a truck driver." White pilots would fly around 50 combat missions but because there were no replacements, black pilots of the Tuskegee Airmen flew around 70 missions. During the war he flew over 90 combat missions.
After the WWII
While flying an F-84E Thunderjet it experienced mechanical failure and exploded into flames forcing Lester to yank his ejection seat and parachute from the inflamed jet, which made him "only the sixth pilot ever to use the ejection method." Later in his career he also worked with the infamous "Whiz kids" that Robert McNamara assembled at the Office of the Secretary of Defense. In 1969 Lester retired as a full colonel and was then appointed as associate director of social services in Rockville, Maryland.

The primary Captain/FO would do the takeoffs and landings, and the Relief crew would fly inflight. Most likely a flight of this length would be 2 shifts each, with each crew taking two breaks in the bunk, around 3-4 hours each.
Similar for the Flight Attendants. The size of the cabin crew would depend on the size of the airplane. An extra FA (or 2 or 3) would be added as the flight time increased as well. The cabin crew would then schedule crew rest breaks similar to the way the flight deck crew would.

Paphos is marketed as an all year resort which indeed the weather reflects as do the many restaurants and bars which remain open. However, trying to get a flight from the UK after the October half-term is very limited in departure airports. During the months from April to October you can buy cheap last minute flight only tickets from numerous destinations including Bristol, Cardiff and Exeter to Paphos. However as soon as the end of October arrives if you live in the south-west of England it appears you have to take the long drive to Gatwick Airport to get flights to Paphos Airport.
Since April 2008 Easy jet have operated flights to Paphos but again only from London Gatwick - I am hoping that when the new Paphos International Airport opens which reportedly will have more check-ins etc. they may operate flights from the south west. Easy Jet have a very big presence at Bristol International Airport so fingers crossed flights might start operating from there. Last week I caught the last flight out from Bristol to Paphos for £60 with Thomsonfly - the flight was on a Boeing 757 and there were only 13 of us on the flight as no return journeys would be operating. A nice comfortable and relaxing flight for both passengers and staff! Even the Captain came out to the passenger cabin to introduce himself. I know though of lots of other people including family and friends looking for flights that week for a weeks holiday over the half term period but they had to make the lengthy journey to London Gatwick and unfortunately they then got stuck in traffic jams on the dreaded M25 and only just reached check-in in time for their First Choice Flight.
On arrival at Paphos international Airport baggage etc. was delivered swiftly and customers then proceeded to collect their hire cars booked through Rhinocarhire.com for their onward journeys to hotels and holiday homes. Hopefully we will soon see an increase in flights available from the south-west to Paphos airport. | aerospace |

The module had attempted a soft landing on a small patch of lunar highland smooth plains between ‘Simpelius N’ and ‘Manzinus C’ craters before losing communication with the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), September 7. The site was about 600 km from the South Pole of the moon in a relatively ancient terrain, according to the US space agency.
“Vikram had a hard landing and the precise location of the spacecraft in the lunar highlands has yet to be determined,” NASA said.
“The scene was captured from a Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) Quickmap fly-around of the targeted landing site image width is about 150 kilometres across the centre,” the space agency added.
‘Vikram’ was scheduled to touch down, September 7. This event was India’s first attempt to soft land on the Moon and could have propelled it into a select club of countries to have landed on the lunar surface.
After ‘Vikram’ lost contact with ground stations, just 2.1 km above the touchdown site, the possibility of establishing contact with the lander had a deadline of September 21, because after that the region entered into a lunar night. However, in the recent past, ISRO chairman K Sivan has said that any hope of establishing contact with ‘Vikram’ has completely vanished.
The NASA orbiter passed over the Vikram landing site September 17 and acquired a set of high-resolution images of the area; so far the LROC team has not been able to locate or image the lander.
“LROC will next fly over the landing site October 14 when light conditions will be more favourable,” John Keller, Deputy Project Scientist Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Mission, Goddard Space Flight Centre, told this agency via email.
“It was dusk when the landing area was imaged and thus large shadows covered much of the terrain; it is possible that the ‘Vikram’ is hiding in a shadow. The lighting will be favourable when LROC passes over the site in October and once again attempts to locate and image the lander,” NASA said. | aerospace |

Branson’s brand-new flight date will come in the past competing Jeff Bezos is anticipated to fly in his own area tourist rocket on July 20th, setting the phase for a mainly symbolic face-off in between 2 billionaires racing to verify their area tourist rockets.
Branson, 70, wasn’t set to fly on Virgin Galactic’s VSS Unity spaceplane for another 2 tests– till Thursday, when the business revealed he ‘d fly on July 11th “checking the personal astronaut experience” together with 4 objective experts and 2 pilots. “I’ve constantly been a dreamer,” Branson tweeted after the statement. “My mum taught me to never ever quit and to grab the stars. On July 11, it’s time to turn that dream into a truth aboard the next Virgin Galactic spaceflight.”
The objective, called Unity 22, will mark Virgin Galactic’s 4th crewed test flight of VSS Unity, a spaceplane that releases from a provider airplane mid-air and rises towards the edge of area to offer guests a couple of minutes of weightlessness. It will be “the very first to bring a complete team of 2 pilots and 4 objective experts in the cabin, consisting of the Company’s creator, Sir Richard Branson, who will be evaluating the personal astronaut experience,” the business stated in a declaration.
Unity, developed to bring approximately 6 guests and 2 pilots, has actually been checked 22 times, with the latest test occurring at Virgin Galactic’s luxurious Spaceport America base in New Mexico. 3 more test flights consisting of Branson’s stay this year prior to Virgin Galactic performs its very first revenue-generating objective for the Italian Air Force. The business has some 600 appointments for paying consumers on future area flights, with each ticket opting for around $250,000.
Branson, in a video he tweeted, teased an extra statement after his July 11th flight. “When we return, I will reveal something extremely amazing to provide more individuals a possibility to end up being astronauts, since area does come from all of us,” he stated. “So see this area.”
Blue Origin revealed last month that Bezos, its creator, will be on board its very first crewed objective of New Shepard, a suborbital rocket created to send out guests to the very same heights as VSS Unity for a couple of minutes of weightlessness. That rocket introduces vertically from the business’s remote spaceport in Van Horn, Texas. New Shepard has actually flown 15 times without teams on board, with the most current uncrewed flight functioning as an astronaut training wedding rehearsal.
Virgin Galactic’s statement begins the exact same day Blue Origin revealed the 4th team member for its very first crewed New Shepard flight– Wally Funk, a famous pilot who likewise holds a ticket for Virgin’s VSS Unity. Bezos, his bro Mark, and the winning bidder of a $28 million auction for a New Shepard seat will likewise be on board for that July 20th objective. Unlike Virgin Galactic, Blue Origin hasn’t revealed the ticket cost for future New Shepard flights right now.
The Federal Aviation Administration approved Virgin Galactic approval to fly area clients recently as a tweak to the business’s industrial area transport operator license, marking the very first time the FAA accredited a spaceline to fly clients. Blue Origin does not have the exact same FAA approval to fly clients ahead of its July 20th flight with Bezos yet, however is getting near protecting it, according to an individual acquainted with the procedure.
Area blog writer Parabolic Arc was the very first to report on a sped up timeline for Branson’s flight. Spokespeople for Virgin Galactic had neither verified nor rejected the report till Thursday. A business spokesperson stated Branson’s July 11th flight depends upon “tech checks and weather condition, naturally.”

http://flyto.org/page10.html | 2019-11-22T16:07:07 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496671363.79/warc/CC-MAIN-20191122143547-20191122172547-00239.warc.gz | 0.955545 | 858 | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | webtext-fineweb__CC-MAIN-2019-47__0__32560471 | en | 1: What do you do if you are flying in close trail, or in a large formation with an aircraft directly behind you, and your engine looses power or even stops completely?
DO NOT attempt to push down. Hold your position vertically and horizontally relative to the airplane you are following, or if you are lead then the same applies except you have been setting the course of the flight. Remember what was briefed - STEP DOWN IN TRAIL - and this does not mean a nominal step down as there should be at least 10 ft vertical step down. This 10 ft step down applies to being in trail behind a retractable gear airplane - if you are in trail behind a fixed gear plane that you will need more step down, also if you have a higher than normal vertical fin then increase the step down. The idea of a correct step down is that if the engine quits in the airplane ahead of you, then it can safely disappears to the rear of the flight over the top of your plane and any plane behind you. You might be scared witless but you should live to survive the incident. Do NOT step down so you just feel the ‘burble’ - you need to be lower and this involves looking sharply upwards at the airplane in front.
If you do not step down correctly your safety net has been lost and even if the plane in front maintains altitude you will have to take evasive action which will in turn immediately have an impact on those behind you. It WILL happen so quickly and be over in less than 10 seconds. Think ahead and maintain the correct step down for your safety and that of your team.
It is IMPERATIVE that the aircraft in trouble MUST stay level and to do this the pilot may need to pull back on the stick or yoke slightly to maintain altitude and slide back above the rest of the flight. The aircraft in trouble should notify lead and the rest of the flight on the in-flight frequency as soon as it is safe to do so. Once safely to the rear of the flight the pilot can maneuver to regain a safe airspeed and troubleshoot the problem. Lead should then take charge and direct a member of the flight - wingman or element lead - to carry out the PRE-BRIEFED abnormals procedure.
A further point to note is that WHENEVER you have an aircraft behind you in a safety critical position - trail or as part of a large formation - then BEFORE you ENTER the SAFETY CRITICAL situation you MUST ensure that your fuel system will be not un-port during any maneuvers as this could cause the engine to quit or loose power. If necessary request a move out to the route position to change tanks - DO NOT attempt this while in parade formation. A hic-up with fuel is the most likely cause of an engine problem during flight. Your CONTRACT with your team members is to ensure you have done everything possible to prevent a potential in-flight incident.
You can always practice an engine failure in trail as a solo exercise to see just what you need to do to maintain level flight and how rapidly your plane will slow down.
2.You are flying as #4 in a 4-Ship formation practice flight. The flight is in extended trail. You are not in an acrobatic aircraft. The flight members are getting out of sync with the flight lead. You feel uncomfortable. What do you do?
Make an immediate radio call “RED Flight, Knock It Off”. All flight members then repeat the command "RED 1, Knock It Off", "RED 2, Knock It Off", "RED 3, Knock It Off", "RED 4, Knock It Off". Expect a futher command from RED Lead. In this example, all aircraft were alerted to a safety of flight condition that was developing. Who called KIO is not critical as the condition effected all flight members. However, had the flight member witnessed imminent danger - another flight member’s impending impact with the ground, for example - the call would instead be directive in nature (“RED 2, pull up!”), and a flight “knock it off” call should not be used until after directive instructions have been provided. | aerospace |

All photos via John Parker, unless noted otherwise.
John Parker recently visited Caboolture Airfield in Queensland, Australia. The site is famous around the world for the historic aircraft based or under restoration there, but Parker was specifically interested in a project owned by Jack McDonald. ‘Here there be demons’, well, a Hawker Demon as it happens.
Work continues at an astounding pace on the Hawker Demon project. Much of the work has centered upon rebuilding the tubular steel fuselage structure at present, and bringing together the required parts for the Demon from Jack’s spares holding.
The Hawker Demon fuselage breaks down into three major assemblies – the forward fuselage/engine mount, the cockpit assembly and the rear fuselage. When work commenced on the aircraft earlier in 2014, the fuselage was in one piece with all these assemblies formed into a single structure which was originally restored back in the 1980’s. However a lot of time has passed since then and the aircraft, having moved about from several locations, has suffered as a consequence, meaning that this original work has had to be redone.
A small team led by Ron Lee has been working on the aircraft throughout the later part of 2014, dismantling the old work, and repairing where necessary to an exceptionally high standard. To date, the team has separated and completely dismantled the engine mount, cockpit and rear fuselage and restored them to as new condition. This refurbishment has also included the wooden “Dog house” upper cockpit section which is now fully restored, covered in cloth and painted.
The Hawker practice of connecting steel tubes with joining brackets to form the structure of the fuselage has made the process of dismantling, refurbishment and reassembly relatively straightforward so far. Each tube is removed, cleaned, painted and replaced in the structure. The stainless steel plates, often referred to as ‘fish plates,’ used to join the tubes were cleaned and polished. Most of the tubes were replaced during the last rebuild, so no new ones have been required. However, in the interests of longevity, new nuts and bolts were used throughout the reassembly. Naturally the unique tube rivets also had to be replaced. These rivets are unusual, two-piece items which allow for the rivet to pass through the tube structure, but not to collapse it when they are peened together.
With the three major fuselage subassemblies now rebuilt, the team will shortly join them back together and “true them up” to ensure they are correctly aligned. The process involves cross-bracing the square metal tube assembles with diagonal wires and turnbuckles. These wires are of the same stainless steel aerodynamic variety used on the wings, and are work of art themselves. The turnbuckles adjust the tension on the wires, which is the primary method for aligning the structure.
The rear undercarriage strut assembly has already been refurbished and attached to the fuselage, as have some of the cockpit fittings. The “Dog House” will not be refitted permanently until the cockpit is complete to allow access to the restricted space in that area. Work will now focus on the final assembly of the fuselage and its fit out. While Jack McDonald is rebuilding this aircraft to airworthy standards, it is not clear at present whether it will actually fly or just be a ground-runner. It is a rare type, with just a couple of complete survivors presently extant.
Upon completion of the structure and the fuselage fit out, the team will manufacture the wooden stringers and framework which attach to it to form the basis for the aircraft’s aerodynamic shape. This will then be covered with linen and doped. Work will then turn to building cowlings for the engine bay. The aircraft’s Rolls-Royce Kestrel engine recently arrived at Caboolture. It is apparently in good condition, and will undergo assessment to determine what is required to get it flight-worthy. A fixed-pitch, two-bladed propeller is also available to the project, but it too requires a proper inspection prior to being deemed usable.
The full set of tail feathers was previously rebuilt. The team will assess these components, and repair if necessary before recovering and attaching and to the fuselage. Wheels and landing gear are available for the aircraft. The wheels are already finished and look stunning. The tyres will also be available as they are not a difficult part to source.
With the completion of all the above work, there will be a fully airworthy Hawker Demon fuselage on hand – missing just one thing – Wings!
Work will commence this year on constructing a set of wings for the Demon using many components previously sourced from Australian wrecks and a set of new-build spars made some years ago. The wing construction, whilst not unique, is of itself a challenging task. This work will be undertaken “in house” using Caboolture-based engineers.
No decision has yet been made as to the identity of the aircraft when completed and this may hinge on work being done to identify the wreck which formed the basis of the fuselage.
Only a single Demon is currently flying, this being K8203 formerly of No. 64 Squadron RAF. The Shuttleworth Collection is the current home to this beautiful aircraft. One other complete example resides at the Royal Australian Air Force Museum in Point Cook, Victoria. This is a former Australian example built up from the wreck of A1-8.

What does zero gravity does to the human body? How do we identify and prevent the zero gravity effects? Will impending space travel need to take effects of weightlessness into consideration?
Not having to bear weight on your feet sounds relaxing, but in the long term there are many health problems associated with it. Bones and muscles weaken, and other changes also take place within the body. One of the functions of the ISS is to study how astronaut health is affected by long periods in weightlessness.
In 2018, a group of organizations from all of the world will begin construction of the largest radio telescope ever built, the Square Kilometre Array(SKA).
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will, when complete, be the largest scientific facility on, or off, the Earth. It will be physically huge, spanning two continents and generating data volumes many times greater than that of the entire internet.
With one million square meters of collecting area and enough optical fiber to wrap around the Earth twice, this marvel of modern engineering will be sensitive enough to detect airport radar on a planet 50 light years away. SKA will also generate 700 terabytes of data every second. At full capacity, the SKA’s aperture arrays are expected to produce 100 times more data than the entire Internet. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize that such a deluge of information creates a big data problem, perhaps the biggest we have ever encountered.
Solving this big data problem for the space industry requires innovation in the data storage, processing, and access (or visualization) technologies, which, in turn, creates ample opportunities for startups and large data crunching companies to take advantage of.
Dr Phil Diamond will discuss the scientific motivation for SKA, the international partnership and the observatory that will be built. He will summarise the current status of the detailed design of the SKA and highlight the timeline for the project, including the start of construction planned for 2018.

The most effective short-term means of reducing the space debris growth rate is through the prevention of in-orbit explosions.
The only effective long-term means of stabilising the space debris environment at a safe level is through the removal of mass (five to ten large objects per year) from regions with high object densities and long orbital lifetimes.
Both types of mitigation measures need to be applied broadly and in a timely manner to avoid uncontrolled growth of the debris environment. If mitigation concepts are applied insufficiently, or too late, some orbit regions, particularly the valuable 800- to 1400-km altitude, may experience a collisional cascading process that could render these regions too dangerous for space activities within a few decades.
In this session we will focus on the international effort currently being done to minimise space debris.
Spaceport Sweden is one of Europe’s tourist space gems, headed by its high profile CEO, Karin Nilsdotter.
She wants Spaceport Sweden to become: “A platform for cross-sector innovation, establishing commercial human spaceflight as a new industry for tourism, research and education”.
Spaceport Sweden one day hopes to offer flights launching from Kiruna, Sweden into suborbital space aboard space planes owned by Virgin Galactic, XCOR and other commercial spaceflight companies. Officials with the spaceport are planning to build a new visitor's complex to open the spaceflight experience up to more people each year.
A start up on the West Coast called Zipline has launched its fleet of a small fixed-wing drones.
It’s first contract, with the Rwandan government, is designed to carry medical supplies to remote locations. It will begin operating a service in July.
The fleet of robot planes will initially cover more than half the tiny African nation, creating a highly automated network to shuttle blood and pharmaceuticals to remote locations in hours rather than weeks or months
The need for all people and things to be connected in an accessible way regardless of time or location is a challenge that many are attempting to address right now. Never has there been so much interest and exploration in ubiquitous connectivity and space has a significant part to play here. Inmarsat has been providing global mobile connectivity for decades but the opportunity to engage with new technology developers has been limited by the very nature of our industry. Until recently. Space is now more accessible, better understood, and more engaging to a broader audience than ever before.
The future of delivering global, mobile connectivity requires the development of both innovative new satellite communications technologies as well as different partnerships to build new infrastructure, new business models, new solutions, products and applications to address connectivity needs and wants across the world and across all industries. From hybrid space and ground-based technologies to new functionalities operating over existing satellite networks, this is a key focus for Inmarsat, particularly with our latest constellation, Global Xpress and our next generation of satellites, Inmarsat-6.
The International Space Station (ISS) is a great technical achievement. The policy of the European Space Agency (ESA) about the utilization of the Columbus module changed recently, opening to the possibility of accessing the ISS on a commercial basis. This will allow for the establishment of services supporting the performance of science and technological development in a wide range of disciplines.
One of the most promising aspects is related to the possible biomedical advancements coming from the study of space-grown protein crystals. One of the commercial services under preparation, with the support of the European Union (EU), is centered on the PharmaLab facility and aims at boosting the research in the pharmaceutical field thanks to the singular effect of the microgravity on crystals quality, associated with the unprecedented capability of performing in situ X-ray diffraction measurements. This crystallography technique will be applied to protein-pharmaceutical compounds molecular complexes crystallized in orbit, for applications in the sector of structure-based drug design and development.
GPS provides free of charge precise time and position information worldwide. In a world of instant communications, much of our global telecom infrastructure relies on GPS to provide precise time and frequency information. For instance, telephone companies take advantage of GPS to synchronize their global telecom networks with inexpensive timing receivers.
But despite how much we rely on the Global Positioning System (GPS) for position information and as a time (and hence frequency) base, GPS remains vulnerable to natural and man-made obstacles. From receivers in poor geographic locations, to lost satellite signals, to jammed reception, GPS has at times been sensitive to interruptions.
In this session we will focus on the vulnerabilities of GNSS systems and the Galileo programme.
Galileo is to provide an indigenous alternative high-precision positioning system upon which European nations can rely, independently from the Russian GLONASS and US GPS systems, in case they were disabled by their operators. The use of basic (low-precision) Galileo services will be free and open to everyone. The high-precision capabilities will be available for paying commercial users. Galileo is intended to provide horizontal and vertical position measurements within 1-metre precision, and better positioning services at high latitudes than other positioning systems.
A company that provides data analytics of satellite imagery, announced this week that it had closed an $8.7 million Series A round led by Sequoia. Bloomberg Beta, Google Ventures, citizen.vc and Lux Capital also participated in the round. Sequoia partner Bill Coughran of Sequoia will be joining the board of Orbital Insight as part of the deal.
Orbital Insight was founded by Dr. James Crawford, an artificial intelligence researcher and entrepreneur who has experience building intelligent systems for NASA and other organizations. He was also previously the Engineering Director of Google Books, an experience that helped lead to the idea for his new company.
“What this company really is is a Google Books like pipeline – that is, an automated AI pipeline – designed for understanding and processing satellite imaging at scale,” Crawford explained to me.
The past few years have seen an explosion of satellite imaging companies. Older companies like DigitalGlobe continue to put up satellites and produce reams of detailed data. However, they’ve been joined by a number of startups such as Planet Labs, Skybox and more who are putting up a myriad number of satellites.
The result of this influx is that between the various companies watching the planet from above, it’s possible to see changes being made in particular parts of the globe over time, and to track and monitor those changes. Those changes, in turn, can be used to inform decision makers and investors about the status of the economy, agriculture production, and more.
To analyze these images, Orbital Insight has developed machine learning programs that can be “taught’ to find and analyze data points of interest. During its seed phase, for instance, the company used a human to tag cars in parking lots while the program observed it. After a few hundred tags, the program “learns” to identify cars in other parking lot images without the human being involved. | aerospace |

Nissan has unveiled a lunar rover prototype jointly developed with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA).
When developing lunar rovers, driving controllability is a key factor. A rover must be able to transverse the Moon’s powdery, rocky, and undulating terrain. Furthermore, energy sources for operating vehicles are limited in space, so the vehicle must be energy efficient.
Nissan’s research applies the motor control technology it has developed through its production of mass-market electric vehicles such as the LEAF as well as e-4ORCE all-wheel control technology featured on the new Ariya electric crossover.
The e-4ORCE technology precisely controls all four wheels independently. Nissan is attempting to evolve the system to offer enhanced performance in sandy terrain and other harsh conditions.
The collaboration will combine Nissan’s research gained from test-vehicle development with JAXA’s knowledge of rover research.
“The uses of automobiles and driving situations are wide-ranging. We aim for the ultimate driving performance through our research and development, and believe the know-how gained from this joint research with JAXA will lead to innovations in our vehicles that will bring benefits to customers,” said Toshiyuki Nakajima, General Manager of the Advanced Vehicle Engineering Department in charge of e-4ORCE control development at Nissan.

Since independence, Ghana has relied on Italy for an array of military aircraft. In early 1966, the GAF established a jet fighter/ground-attack squadron, which was composed of seven Italian Aermacchi MB-326s (within two years, three of these aircraft crashed and were later replaced). A small group of Italian Air Force instructors supervised this squadron. From 1983 to 1984, the GAF accepted delivery of eight SIAI-Marchetti SF-260TP turboprop trainers. In mid-1987, Ghana ordered two Aermacchi MB-339 jet trainers.
Little is known about the Ghanaian-Libyan military relationship. An unknown number of Libyan military personnel have participated in Ghanaian military exercises as observers. During the second Rawlings regime, an undetermined number of Libyan soldiers received jungle warfare training in Ghana. In May 1983, the Ghanaian government admitted that it had received unspecified quantities of military equipment, mostly artillery pieces and ammunition, as gifts from Libya. To all appearances, Accra's ties to Libya weakened after Ghana moved closer to the West in the late 1980s.

While drone delivery isn't out of the query, some experts say the case for utilizing drones earlier within the supply chain could also be stronger.2 A variety of different supply chain administration drone functions are being applied already. Telemetry is information about your flight—velocity, altitude, battery voltage, and so on. In some instances, the telemetry will function on its own radio system with a novel frequency, so a transmitter with a dedicated telemetry receiver or the ability to install one is required. More latest is on-display display , an addition to FPV that superimposes select knowledge over the video feed from the flight digital camera. In this case, an OSD module is required, by way of which the video feed will pass after leaving the digicam, and before arriving on the video transmitter.
We’re dwelling in a technological growth the place every single day we’re studying a couple of new improvement. Sometimes you encounter a brand new know-how which is extra refined and helps you get your work accomplished sooner and/or extra effectively. Technology is changing into more in order it is shown within the tech savvy fiction movies where the machines have their very own brains. Drones are a contemporary marvel which have impressed not only the army but have additionally captured the imagination of the frequent folks too.
Anyone that likes high-flying distant-controlled tech will enjoy flying considered one of these devices. If you want to take your photography to the subsequent stage, a drone may be the reply.
Licensing includes taking an FAA examination covering aviation matters ranging from airspace regulations and restrictions to aviation physics. In addition to federal rules, local restrictions can prohibit flights anywhere from state parks to state infrastructure. Local ordinance may even prohibit where you'll be able to and may’t launch from in sure cities. Sometimes when utilizing drones for real estate it is helpful to show overhead website maps of a property with imaging looking straight down.
A small adjustment to the yaw trim will cancel out this unwanted rotation. Next, with your drone airborne, fly the drone in a daily pattern around the target.
In reality, the Tennessee Titans just lately turned one of the first professional sports activities group to receive an FAA 333 Exemption in order that they may use drones for commercial purposes. It appears as if they may use their drones to take a wide selection of aerial footage of their group training throughout pre-season mini camps. And, whereas the Syma X5C doesn’t have probably the most amazing camera setup (shoots in 720p and doesn’t have a gimbal to stabilize video), it exhibits you that inexpensive drones are each succesful and bettering. Many drones now are controlled partially through a mobile app on your cellphone or pill. So… it’s safe to say that the marketplace for shopper drones remains to be in its infancy.
Drone mapping is going to become more seamless, permitting your drone to spot developments within the behavior to inform it to do, and finally be able to utilize its abilities with out manually scheduling flights. Software enhancements allow for companies to scale their firm's operations extra rapidly while being able to manage more drones without delay and make use of them in more locations. In January, State Farmreceived the primary-ever national drone-flight waiver granted to a company by the FAA. The waiver will allow State Farm to fly drones over people and past visual line of sight through November 2022. Josh began within the drone neighborhood in 2012 with a drone information Twitter account. Over the years Josh has gained mass exposure from his aerial pictures work and spends his days writing drone content material for DroneDJ in addition to pursuing his enterprise. The survey goes in-depth into major questions about drone supply, including, “How do individuals really feel about drone supply?
That will take some time, however Google expects its “moonshots” to take up to a decade to pay off. Getting swarms to collaborate, avoid collisions and deal with the odd failure isn't any imply feat.
Clutch surveyed 528 internet buyers to grasp their opinions on drone delivery. Drone delivery stays solely out there to a few communities within the U.S. but may expand in the future. In late 2019, for instance, Wing, a drone supply service owned by Google’s parent company, Alphabet, started testing delivering packages by drone in the rural city of Christiansburg, Va. TheDJI Trade Up program allows you to ship your used electronics (they’ll take drones, of course, but they’ll also settle for non-DJI gear together with Apple iPhones and Google Pixels).
By combining its 24–48mm telephoto lens with a digital zoom, the drone can shoot HD video with as much as 4x lossless zoom. That’s useful should you’re photographing noise-delicate wildlife or thinking about achieving cinematic effects that use a zoom. Otherwise, you possibly can simply fly any drone toward a topic to attain a zooming impact. You can fly the Mavic 2 Pro up to 5 miles away, although US guidelines say you or a spotter should at all times have the drone within your line of sight. It uses DJI’s OccuSync 2.0 transmission system, which implies it's wirelessly appropriate with the DJI Goggles—the primary-particular person-view headset we recommend if you wish to see what the drone’s digicam is seeing.
Best foldable drone under $100 You may also want filters in your digicam, or even a digital camera itself if the machine doesn’t come with one. And if you’re shooting video, you will need a computer that is capable of dealing with video enhancing. While on the subject, some video editing software program like Filmora X – for novices or intermediates/ FilmoraPro – in case you are a professional video editor would most likely even be an excellent investment.
Many persons are nonetheless nervous and skeptical about having drones flying round their neighborhood. From involved citizens to car parking zone security guards, people might be interested by what your intentions are along with your drone. It is your duty to know tips on how to be a good steward of the trade and to politely educate them on the rules and rules. As lengthy as you're working on knowledgeable stage, you need to be fantastic. If you’re an actual property skilled and, by now, you're ready to go on the market and start using drones, not so fast. It’s not as simple as simply shopping for a drone, putting it within the air, and pushing a number of buttons. In order to make use of drones for real estate professionally, you need to be a commercially licensed drone pilot, or remote pilot because the FAA calls it.
As a part of DRONELIFE’s participation in theFAA’s Drone Safety Awareness Week, DRONELIFE will feature stories based on the themes outlined. Today, we focus on the drone business’s contribution to insurance coverage and other business safety arenas. Clutch additionally asked the web shoppers what they thought the advantages of drone deliveries are. Thirty-three % stated it might be quicker than current supply standards, and 21% mentioned they thought it would be cheaper. The survey took the solutions of 528 internet buyers to see if drones were really on the minds of web shoppers.
A booster that lasts for 4 seconds and takes 15 seconds to recharge. This will increase the drone's velocity for a bit, but the steady increase difficults the maneuverability, particularly on enclosed areas. A drone deployed from the Terrorbyte, as seen in a promotional screenshot. Anyone who tries, says Stav Braun of Dispatch, has “simply stolen a homing beacon”. A larger concern, she says, is ensuring that the robotic is courteous and people really feel secure round it. For software suppliers the vertical model is profitable, as startups goal shoppers particularly industries. We do this by providing drone and geospatial programs to teachers and faculties across the globe.
“The regulator only sets the foundations and defines the exchanges, so it’s a very completely different means of doing things from air-site visitors management,” says Dr Kopardekar. DJI’s drones already support “geo-fencing” utilizing know-how supplied by Mr McNeal’s firm, AirMap. Its database of the place drones are and aren't allowed to fly is built into the software used to manage them, working with satellite tv for pc positioning to stop an operator from flying a drone too close to an airport, for example. AirMap’s database could be updated in real time to maintain drones away from surprising occasions corresponding to fires and other incidents. Mr Anderson believes that probably the most instant opportunity lies in development and related industries. | aerospace |

Called the International Space Apps Challenge, the idea is to develop software for various purposes to support NASA’s mission. It is open to just about anyone interested, including “engineers, technologists, scientists, designers, artists, educators, students, and entrepreneurs.” The challenge will take place in several cities on all continents around the globe, including San Francisco, Santo Domingo, Sao Paulo, Nairobi, Tokyo and even on Antarctica at McMurdo Station.
There are several challenges being put forth on their website, including developing hand-held hardware for upcoming space missions, determining the size of the Earth itself, access to a variety of NASA datasets and observations, and design a consistent open data API for NASA. Other challenges will be added as we get closer to launch time. The event is being held as partly to demonstrate NASA’s efforts towards open government initiatives, as well as to capture the attention of people who may not have any prior interest in space exploration.
The Earth measurement app will accomplish several things, for example, including how to take a noontime solar location fix, share that observation with others, and demonstrate how far off the Greek astronomer Eratosthenes was in his measurement thousands of years ago. | aerospace |

Launching a hot air balloon, France 1783. — Unmanned hot air balloons are first noted in Chinese history. Zhuge Liang of the Shu Han kingdom, in the Three Kingdoms era (220-280 AD) used airborne lanterns for military signaling. These lanterns are known as Kongming lanterns. There is also some speculation that hot air balloons could have been used by people of the Nazca culture of Peru some 1500 years ago, as a tool for designing the famous Nazca ground figures and lines. The first documented balloon flight in Europe was by the Portuguese priest Bartolomeu de Gusmão. On August 8, 1709, in Lisbon, Bartolomeu de Gusmão managed to lift a small balloon made of paper full of hot air about 4 meters in front of king John V and the Portuguese court.
The first clearly recorded instance of a balloon carrying passengers used hot air to generate buoyancy. The balloon was built by the Montgolfier brothers, Joseph-Michel and Jacques-Etienne, in Annonay, France. After experimenting with unmanned balloons and flights with animals, the first tethered balloon flight with humans on board took place on October 19, 1783 with the scientist Jean-François Pilâtre de Rozier, the manufacture manager, Jean-Baptiste Réveillon and Giroud de Villette, at the Folie Titon in Paris. The first free flight with human passengers was on November 21, 1783. King Louis XVI had originally decreed that condemned criminals would be the first pilots, but de Rozier, along with Marquis Francois d'Arlandes, successfully petitioned for the honor.

NASA says Tang, invented by General Foods in 1957, was used by John Glenn in 1962 when performing eating experiments in orbit. Teflon, material invented for DuPont in 1938, was used by NASA for heat shields, space suits and cargo hold liners, the agency says. And Velcro, invented by the Swiss in 1940s, was also used by NASA to anchor equipment for zero-gravity environments.

The 628th Medical Group at Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina will introduce two new squadrons, starting with the 628th Operational Medical Readiness Squadron, June 28, 2019, followed by the Health Care Operations Squadron, July 26, 2019.
The changes will occur at every medical group across the Air Force and will help medical units focus on the readiness of Airmen. The change was formally directed by then Secretary of the Air Force Heather Wilson and Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. David Goldfein in their Medical Reform Memo Feb. 11, 2019.
The 628th Aerospace Medical Squadron, will become the 628th OMRS, with its mission shifting to the exclusive care of active duty Airmen, while the 628th Medical Operations Squadron will become the 628th HCOS, which will focus on retirees and dependents.
“We’re basically reorganizing, creating a clinic that will see only active duty troops and one that will see non-active duty patients such as dependents and retirees,” said Lt. Col. Scott LeBlanc, 628th MDG chief nurse. “There was a model tried at Mountain Home [Air Force Base, Idaho] and it proved it was better suited to maintain active duty readiness by getting quicker medical evaluation boards done, faster return to duty and better care.”
Although the process will take time to fully employ, small changes have already been implemented, which LeBlanc said should have no ill effect on JB Charleston or its Airmen.
“We’ve started the process now, beginning with primary care manager changes,” said LeBlanc. “Patients will be getting new doctors, but they won’t see a change in level of care. It should be seamless for our Airmen.”
Lt. Col. Christine Smetana, 628th MDOS commander, will be the commander of the 628th OMRS after the name change. She sees the new system taking a page from flight medicine’s book to help things run smoothly.
“Flight medicine has several good processes that family medicine has tried to emulate but couldn’t without the same kind of repetition seeing the same kinds of patients,” said Smetana. “By making this switch, it will really help our medical team and our Airmen.”
With the restructuring of the MDG, not only will processes improve, but the Air Force and Air Mobility Command’s missions should also be more easily met, said Col. Brian Musselman, 628th MDG commander.
“Reforming our medical groups’ organizational structure enhances the Air Force’s ability to proactively manage total force medical care,” said Musselman. “It will improve personnel availability and rapidly restore readiness, deployability and force lethality. The level of care patients receive will not change, however, the way we deliver care will.” | aerospace |

Boeing Co`s top executive told employees on Monday he was confident in the safety of the U.S. manufacturer`s top-selling 737 MAX single-aisle aircraft in the wake of two deadly crashes involving the new model of jetliner since October.
An Ethiopian Airlines passenger jet bound for Nairobi crashed minutes after take-off on Sunday, killing all 157 people on board and raising questions about the safety of the Boeing 737 MAX 8 model, which entered service in 2017. A Lion Air 737 MAX 8 crashed in Indonesia in October, killing 189 people.
"We are confident in the safety of the 737 MAX and in the work of the men and women who design and build it," Boeing Chief Executive Officer Dennis Muilenburg told employees in an email seen by Reuters. "Since its certification and entry into service, the MAX family has completed hundreds of thousands of flights safely."
Muilenburg also said Sunday`s crash was "especially challenging" coming only months after the loss of Lion Air Flight 610.
The 737 MAX is the newest version of Boeing`s best-selling 737 family that has been a fixture of passenger travel for decades and the cash cow of the world`s largest aircraft maker, competing against Airbus SE`s A320neo family of single-aisle jetliners.
In the wake of Sunday`s crash, China ordered its airlines to ground the jet, a move followed by Indonesia and Ethiopia. Other airlines, from North America to the Middle East, kept flying the 737 MAX 8 on Monday after Boeing said it was safe.
Boeing was fully supporting the crash investigation and providing technical assistance under the direction of the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board and Ethiopian authorities, Muilenburg said.

What's the coolest and most modern piece of tech out there right now? If you said foldable drones, you would be right! Foldable drones are quickly becoming a must-have for drone enthusiasts everywhere. These lightweight yet powerful machines can go places other conventional drones cannot reach. But what exactly is a foldable drone? In this blog post, we will explore what foldable drones are and why they have become so popular among drone enthusiasts. We'll look at their features, advantages, and even go over some tips on how to get the most out of your foldable drone. So read on to learn more about this revolutionary technology!
When it comes to drones, there are a lot of different designs and types out there. One popular type is the foldable drone. As the name suggests, these drones can be folded up for easy storage and transport.
Foldable drones are typically small and lightweight, making them easy to take with you on the go. They’re also usually very affordable, which makes them a great option for those just starting out with drone photography or videography.
One downside of foldable drones is that they often don’t have as many features as their larger counterparts. However, they still offer a great way to get started with drone photography and videography without breaking the bank.
-The frame: The frame is the skeleton of the drone and houses all the other components. It is usually made from lightweight materials such as aluminum or carbon fiber.
-The motors: The motors are responsible for providing thrust to the propellers. They are typically brushless DC motors that are powered by lithium polymer batteries.
-The ESCs: The ESCs (electronic speed controllers) regulate the amount of power that is sent to the motors. They are important for ensuring that the drone doesn't overheat and crash.
-The flight controller: The flight controller is the brain of the drone and is responsible for directing all its movements. It receives input from the pilot via a remote control and uses a variety of sensors to keep track of the drone's position and orientation.
-The propellers: The propellers provide lift and thrust to the drone. They are typically made from carbon fiber or nylon and come in a variety of sizes and designs.
Assuming you have already purchased a foldable drone, here are instructions on how to use one. Read the manual that comes with your specific drone model for complete understanding of all the features available to you.
To get started, practice flying your drone in an open area away from people and obstacles. Begin by taking off and landing several times to get a feel for how your drone responds to the controls. Next, try flying your drone in a small space, such as between two trees or through a doorway. As you become more comfortable with the controls, you can attempt more difficult maneuvers.
Be sure to follow all safety guidelines when using your drone. Always keep your drone within sight and avoid flying it near people or animals. When finished flying, be sure to land your drone safely and turn it off. | aerospace |

On December 1970, the Soviet spacecraft Venera 7 became the first human object to land on another planet.
After the Mariner 2 was the first to fly by Venus, the Soviets became the first to put a lander on the surface, 8 years later.
The Descent of the Venera 7
The Venera 7 started it's descent to the surface. During the initial stages of the atmospheric entry, it remained to the interplanetary bus.
The main purpose of that was to keep the probe cool.
After the lander was ejected and it deployed it's parachute at about 60 kilometer altitude.
It immediately began its experiments, and one of the first readings revealed the atmosphere to be 97% carbon dioxide.
While descending, the parachutes appeared to malfucntion, causing the probe to impact harder than expected. The speed on impact was about 16.5 m/s or 37 mph.
First it was thought that the Venera 7 had stopped sending data, btu the recording tapes back on Earth kept rolling.
A few weeks after the mission, the tapes were studies again and it was revealed that the Venera 7 had sent a very weak signal for about 23 minutes.
In that timeframe it was able to communicate that the surface temperature was 475 °C (887 °F) and the pressure was 90 atmospheres, which corresponds with about 900 m below sea level.
The Venera 7 was part of the Venera (Russian for Venus) series, a series of 16 probes sent to Venus between 1961 and 1984. | aerospace |

Having never seen an airplane before, he was captivated by this demonstration of their power and abilities, and spontaneously asked if he could go up in one of the biplanes, proclaiming that it was “very fitting that he, as regent of Abyssinia should be the first Abyssinian to take flight in an aeroplane.” As a result of this experience, he afterwards advocated the development of the Imperial Ethiopian Air Force. This small air arm began with the delivery of a Potez 25-A2 to the capital Addis Ababa on 18 August 1929. The Ethiopian Air Force was organized by Mishka Babitchef, the first Ethiopian pilot, who was of Russian descent. A Junkers W 33c followed on 5 September. | aerospace |

Read:
he Command Module was far too cramped for a mission of this duration. Conveniently, a mission to Venus had no use for a Lunar Module, so this vehicle was scrapped and replaced with the larger Environmental Support Module (ESM). This would provide life support and environmental control for the duration of the mission and serve as the main experimental bay where the crew would work. But the ESM didn’t launch docked with the CSM; the astronauts would have to join the two modules in flight. Doing so mimicked the way Apollo astronauts captured the LM on their way to the Moon. Once on their way to Venus, the crew would turn the CSM around and pull the ESM out of its launch casing.
The final module of the Apollo-Venus stack was the SIV-B (pronounced “S-4-B”). This was the upper stage of the Saturn V, and its main function was to propel the spacecraft out of Earth orbit and off toward Venus. While Apollo crews jettisoned this spent rocket stage once they were on their way to the Moon, a crew going to Venus would keep this stage attached, refurbishing it en route into a habitat module, their primary living and recreational space. Everything they would need for this extensive refitting would be stored in the ESM. The refurbished SIV-B would also be the main source of power for the mission. Being the largest module, solar panels arranged on the outside would gather enough sunlight to power all three modules throughout the mission.
The SIV-B was eventually repurposed into Skylab.
But why swing by one planet when you can swing by two? That’s the mission Bellcomm proposed:
NASA could have a crew visit Venus first and use the momentum gained from that flyby to propel themselves to Mars. It was the same basic approach to navigation that the Voyager spacecraft followed in the 1970s.
Bellcomm researchers found that Venus and Mars align often, presenting ample opportunities for a dual planet flyby mission. Between 1978 and 1986, there were five favorable launch windows for a Venus-Mars mission. Some dates even offered the potential for the crew to swing by Venus a second time on their way back to Earth, turning the dual planet flyby mission into a triple planet flyby.

However, in a press statement, the airline cited other contributing factors including technical issues with the plane's auto-throttle system.
As it came into land after an otherwise routine flight from Seoul to San Francisco on July 6, Asiana Airlines Flight 214 clipped a seawall with its landing gear, skidded off the runway and burst into flames.
"The probable cause of this accident was the flight crew's failure to monitor and maintain a minimum safe airspeed during a final approach," the Asiana statement said.
This resulted in the plane deviating below the intended glide path on its runway approach which caused it to hit the seawall.
Three people were killed and nearly 200 injured in the crash.
The statement added that the cockpit crew had been misled by "inconsistencies" in the Boeing 777-200ER's automated systems, which led them to believe the auto-throttle was maintaining the set airspeed.
Asiana said its conclusions had already been submitted on March 17 to the US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), which is leading the investigation.
The NTSB insists the autopilot only plays a complementary role and that pilots are obliged to monitor their equipment and pay attention to their surroundings to prevent crashes.
The board has said the autopilot was switched off about three miles (4.8 kilometres) out, and that the airspeed dipped as low as 103 knots (191 kilometers per hour), or 34 knots below the ideal approach speed.
The aircraft descended so low that an array of approach lights at the end of the runway - a key visual aid to landing - showed four red lights, a situation that would call for an aborted landing.
Asiana has defended the two pilots, Lee Kang-Kuk and Lee Jung-Min, saying they were "competent" aviators who had flown dozens of times to and from San Francisco.

Farzad Esmaili boasted Tuesday, Nov. 12, that a new air defense system was successfully tested during a “massive” ongoing military exercise, which he said was “a message and a strong slap to those countries that threaten [us].”
DEBKAfile’s military sources report that the six-day Iranian air defense drill is Tehran’s answer to the joint three-week US-Israeli maneuver – Austere Challenge 2012 – which is drilling defenses against an Iranian or Syrian ballistic missile attack on Israel.
Monday, four US and Israeli Patriot anti-missiles missiles shot down four out of four mock Iranian missiles from the Israeli air base at Palmachim. Tuesday, the Iranians paraded a new air defense system modeled on the US Hawk system. Earlier reports said the new surface-to-air system is named “Mersad,” or Ambush. It was capable of locking on a flying object at a distance of 80 kilometers (50 miles) and able to hit from 45 kilometers (30 miles) away, Iranian state TV said.
The Iranians have apparently upgraded the American Hawk system, say our military sources, but not all its touted specifications are confirmed. Even if they are, Iran’s latest military exercise shows it cannot match missile interceptors on the high order of the US and Israeli Aegis, THAAD and Arrow. These systems are capable of pinpointing ballistic and cruise missiles the moment they are launched by means of the highly sophisticated US X-band radar stations, one of which is located in the Israeli Negev, and shooting them down hundreds of kilometers before they approach their targets. | aerospace |

The weather wasn't perfect for flying, but the unbroken cloud layer was high, and Vickers Supermarine's chief test pilot was keen to get going. Wedging his large frame into the narrow cockpit of a sleek, pale blue prototype, 'Mutt' Summers fired up its Merlin engine and taxied out across the grass field. Moments later he lifted gracefully into the air for the first time what was arguably to become the greatest single-seat interceptor fighter of all time. Within a decade this classic little fighting machine, and the pilots who flew it, had become legend.
The world over, the Spitfire was, and to most people still is, simply the most beautiful aircraft ever built. Upon every pilot that ever flew it, this little fighter left a deep and lasting impression. Like the finest thoroughbred, it embodied grace and elegance with speed and agility, and it flew superbly. In the hands of its greatest pilots the Spitfire was unbeatable in one-to-one combat and, in the summer of 1940 when Britain stood alone against the might of Hitler's 'Fortress Europe', this little fighter came to symbolize the hopes of an embattled nation. The unmistakable sound of Spitfires returning from battle, with Merlin engines crackling and gun ports whistling, became an ever-lasting memory for a grateful island people.
The Spitfire was developed more than any other aircraft in history, Supermarine producing no fewer than 24 different variants between 1936 and 1948 when production ended. It served throughout World War II in almost every Theater and in countless roles. The Spitfire was flown by pilots from Britain, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, and many of the European countries Hitler invaded. It was the mount of the famous American Eagle Squadrons and saw service with the USAAF in Europe and the Mediterranean. No Allied fighter came near its record of success in World War II.
In a special tribute to the Spitfire, and the pilots from all nations who flew it, Robert Taylor has painted a masterful study of the legendary fighter featuring a flight of MkIX Spitfires, generally considered to have been the greatest of all Spitfire marks, returning to their RAF base at Kenley in July, 1942. High on adrenaline after a dogfight with German Fw190s over France, the 611 Squadron pilots make their high speed run for home above the distinctive patchwork fields of Southern England. | aerospace |

The race starts in Santa Monica and will do a fly-by of Salinas, spend the night in Red Bluff, do a fly-by of Klamath Falls and finish in Madras, Oregon, for a total of 708 nautical miles. Women pilots only, with a sport pilot certificate or higher and a minimum of 100 hours of total fight time. Each plane will have a minimum of 2 women — a pilot and co-pilot or pilot and passenger. Only stock planes with 100-300 horsepower may enter. Flight is during daylight hours, in visual flight rules conditions.
This race does not involve daredevil stunts, nor is it a race for prize money. The race is to focus on the fun and skill of flying and the camaraderie and sisterhood women pilots share. The race centers on piloting safe aircraft, employing the use of good navigation skills, effective radio communications, situational awareness and concern for the safety of fellow pilots, property and each other’s well-being.
The annual Palms to Pines Air Race took place each summer at the end of July or beginning of August, with teams flying from Santa Monica to central Oregon, about 750 statute miles. The race ran consecutively for 40 years, 1969-2009, making it the longest-running all-female air race. Each year, 20-70 planes participated with teams or solo pilots from all over the western United States.
Claire Walters started the air race in 1969 and continued until 2009. The final race culminated in 2009 and Walters died in January 2010.
The Los Angeles Chapter of Ninety-Nines has restarted the air race for 2022.
The air race is under the organization of Ninety-Nines International. The Organization was founded Nov. 2, 1929, at Curtis field, Long Island, New York. All 117 women pilots at the time were invited and 99 women turned up, hence the name. The first president was Amelia Earhart.
The Ninety-Nines, Inc. is an international organization of licensed women pilots from 44 countries, and has thousands of members throughout the world. The organization is a non-profit, charitable membership corporation.
The local chapter, Mount Shasta Ninety-Nines, will be hosting the overnight at Red Bluff Airport, Aug. 12. The chapter is involved with in the community, participating with Young Eagles, Father’s Day pancake breakfast, scholarships and STEM conferences. | aerospace |

6/12/2014 - ROBINS AIR FORCE BASE, Ga. -- It's been more than 23 years since Maj. Gen. Richard S. "Beef" Haddad and his copilot, Col. Randall Bright, flew No. 55-0014 on a combat mission over the "Highway of Death."
On June 12, they boarded the AC-130A gunship again - this time at the Robins (Ga.) Museum of Aviation where the aircraft is on display for the public to see.
"It was an exciting time for me and the other members of my crew," said Haddad, vice commander of Air Force Reserve Command at Robins AFB, commenting on his mission in February 1991.
"That experience helped me go to war in the future as we went to Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom," he said. "It helped in terms of realizing the risks, and what it was like to be a crew member going into that kind of environment."
The mission also made an impact on 1st Lt. Bright, now chief of plans in the AFRC Directorate of Plans and Programs at Robins AFB.
"As a youngster in the Air Force, I had seen combat," Bright said.
In early February 1991, No. 55-0014 and four other AC-130A gunships assigned to the Air Force Reserve's 711th Special Operations Squadron left home station at Duke Field, Florida, en route to the theater of operation.
After flying several missions along the Kuwait and Iraq border, the 711th SOS reservists found themselves in the midst of chaos along the road connecting Kuwait City and Baghdad, Iraq.
During a mission on the night of Feb. 26-27, 1991, the pilot of the lead aircraft instructed Haddad to "hurry up and get up here."
The captain and his crew moved up and fired their weapons on the Iraqi forces. As they began to leave the "killbox" area, Master Sgt. Don Dew, the aircraft illuminator operator, yelled "missile launch" over the plane's radio.
While Haddad increased the engines' power and put the aircraft in a dive, his navigator, Capt. Jose Davison, released flares to divert the path of missiles. At first, the pilots thought they had been hit but then realized the flares had taken them out of danger.
The stretch of road that they had fired on later became known as the "Highway of Death" because the attack that night resulted in the destruction of 1,400 to 2,000 vehicles.
For their part, Haddad and his crew destroyed at least 20 enemy trucks and four armored personnel carriers. They received Air Medals for their actions.
6/13/2014 2:44:12 PM ET The Ac 130 A's were great weapons I worked on them in the 919th at Duke field for 8 years retired in 1991 as a Msgt.
Paul Wishart, Gainesville Fl
6/12/2014 3:48:36 PM ET It's good to see that the gunships are being preserved for future generations of airmen so they can see their history. I was a proud member of the 919th SOW from 1978 to 1999. I retired as a Mastersgt from the reserve in 2007. | aerospace |

Bangabandhu-1 represents an important milestone for Bangladesh in the field of telecommunications: the satellite makes it possible to boost the strength of radio-television broadcasts within a range of more than 6000 km, reaching Russia to the north and Australia to the south.
The Bangabandhu-1 satellite uses two ground control stations: the Spectra Primary Ground station in Gazipur, Dhaka and the Secondary Ground Station in Betbunia, Rangamati. These stations are of fundamental importance as they make it possible to receive and retransmit the entrusted information to the satellite.
For this reason, it is very important for the equipment they contain to be reliable, and it is of vital importance that the equipment is kept within a fixed temperature range of 21 ± 3°C and at a relative humidity of 50%.
With great satisfaction, Aermec was selected for this exceptional technological milestone in a country like Bangladesh, which every year is increasingly satisfied with Aermec and its products. | aerospace |

MOSCOW, (BM) – The new modular cluster unit of unguided aircraft missiles (NAR) for Russian combat helicopters will allow shooting, including kamikaze drones. learned BulgarianMilitary.com citing Popular Mechanic magazine.
All Russian combat helicopters, which are equipped with a weapons control system (FCS), in the future may receive a new modular cluster unit NAR. A feature of this unit will be the ability to fire the so-called “smart” ammunition.
“The built-in hardware transmits information from the helicopter’s weapon control system to the payload, whether it be guided blast rockets, guided missiles, mini-drones or kamikaze drones. Through it, you can, for example, pump energy into a battery in a drone, send a command to turn it on, start it, and it will fly further to carry out its program,” TASS reports, citing its own source in the Russian military-industrial complex.
The use of such ammunition will be ensured by the B8V10-UV gun unit with K8V10-UV and K8V5-UV modular cassettes, developed by the Zaslon scientific and technical center for the Mi-28NM combat helicopter. Pipes with a caliber of 80 mm can be assembled into modules of 10, 15, 20 or 25 pieces.
As a reminder, work is currently underway on the updated Mi-28NM helicopter, which the military calls the “Super Night Hunter”. The machine is structurally different from its prototype Mi-28N with a unique over-sleeve radar, new engines, a control system, and a modern anti-air defense system. In addition, the “Night Super Hunter” is equipped with more modern and powerful weapons that increase its combat capabilities.
The pilots in the new helicopter are located in tandem, and the machine itself has dual control, which increases its survivability in combat conditions: if necessary, the wounded pilot can be immediately replaced by his partner. The Night Super Hunter received the VK-2500P-01 / PS engine, the industrial production of which was launched at the Klimov plant.
It is equipped with a new modern electronic automatic control system that regulates the parameters of the engine in flight. New design solutions guarantee reliable operation in areas not only with a temperate climate, but also in desert areas with high temperatures, as well as in high mountains. The Mi-28NM is armed with anti-tank guided missiles and a 30mm automatic cannon.
The helicopter can use a long-range missile “Attack”, which is designed to destroy armored vehicles, manpower, long-term firing points, air defense objects and helicopters. “Attack” is capable of penetrating almost a meter thick armor hidden behind reactive armor. Such characteristics will effectively combat the main tanks of a potential enemy. Also, a laser suppression station can be installed on the helicopter, which protects the “Night Hunter” from missiles.
Russia buys a large number of Mi-8 helicopters for its special forces
The Russian military is showing interest in buying a large batch of Mi-8AMTSh-VN military transport helicopters for the Special Operations Forces said Andrey Boginsky, general director of the Russian Helicopters holding on July 31 this year.
Earlier in July, the press service of the Russian Helicopters holding announced the start of flight tests of the Mi-8AMTSh-VN, the first stage of which is scheduled to be completed in November. In the future, two more helicopters will be connected to the flights.
The Mil plant decided to proactively develop a helicopter for the Special Operations Forces in 2017. In May 2018, the development work under the designation “Sapsan” was approved by the Russian Ministry of Defense.
In the summer of 2019, at the Army forum, a contract was signed with the Russian Helicopters holding for the supply of the first ten Mi-8AMTSh-VN troops to the troops. They should be transferred to the military by the end of 2021.
According to Rostec, the Mi-8AMTSh-VN helicopter has increased combat survivability and security, which are provided by an onboard defense system, titanium and Kevlar armor protection and other constructive measures.
Not only the crew and the most important units are protected by armor, but also the landing force in the cargo compartment. Thanks to two sliding doors and additional hatches, the capabilities of the Mi-8AMTSh-VN in terms of landing troops are significantly expanded.
The vehicle is armed with 12.7 mm machine guns. Along with small arms and cannon weapons, unguided missiles and bombs of various calibers, the helicopter can use a complex of guided missile weapons with a surveillance and targeting system, which allows it to fight air and ground targets, destroy enemy firing points and armored vehicles.

For use in the dark, the Mi-8AMTSh-VN is equipped with a gyro-stabilized optoelectronic system, supplemented by a searchlight with an infrared spectrum, dual-band lighting equipment and adapted for the use of night vision goggles.

Canada’s Transportation Safety Board report into the collision documented passengers jumping from exits before an evacuation order was given.
Others tried to grab their belongings as they evacuated the plane.
The agency says the findings highlight the importance of following procedure.
Many passengers ignored instructions to “remain seated and calm” while some tried to grab their overhead luggage during the evacuation and others were yelling that they needed to get out of the plane, fuelling panic, the agency report, which was released this week, says.
The night-time 10 May 2019 collision took place in rainy weather that caused a Toronto to Sudbury flight to return to Toronto’s Pearson International Airport shortly after take-off.
There were 52 passengers, including three infants, on board at the time of the incident.
Fifteen people received minor injuries, including one infant who was badly bruised after being thrown from her parent’s arms, hitting the seatback and falling to into the aisle when the fuel tanker collided with the aeroplane.
The report, released this week, says the fuel tanker driver’s vision was hampered, including by rain and condensation on the vehicle windows, when the tanker, travelling 40 kph (25 mph), hit the taxiing plane,.
The pilot also failed to see the tanker in the “critical moments before the collision” due to a combination of “darkness, rain, and reflected light”.
Flight crew abused
One passenger, who had ignored the flight attendant’s request to keep her seatbelt fastened, was thrown to the floor by the impact.
In the moments after the collision, the flight attendant asked passengers to remain seated but “despite this command, some passengers unfastened their seat belts and stood up”.
One passenger climbed over the back of their seat, opened a rear emergency window exit and jumped, followed by one more passenger.
A few seconds later, the flight attendant opened one of the main doors amid pressure from passengers and “verbal threats from one of them”.
As soon as she smelled fuel, she told passengers to evacuate the plane.
Many ignored her commands to leave belongings behind, and at one point a passenger returned to the plane to retrieve belongings left on board.
Other tried to follow but were turned back by the flight attendant.
It took three minutes and 38 seconds to get all passengers off the plane, “which exceeded the 90 second certification standard for emergency evacuations”, the report states.
“It is important that passengers pay attention to the pre-flight safety briefings, review the safety features card, and follow directions from flight attendants in order to be prepared and to evacuate safely during an emergency,” it says. | aerospace |

Quieting the boom is all about the shape of the sound waves.
Given the current state of commercial air travel, any effort to get the flight over with more quickly could be considered noble.
Supersonic flight is the obvious answer. That technology isn’t even new. The Concorde’s maiden flight was in 1969, and service ended in 2003.
Getting a plane to fly faster than the speed of sound isn’t the problem—it’s quieting the thunderous sonic boom that’s heard on the ground. In 1973, the US government banned overland commercial supersonic flights.
Now NASA and Lockheed Martin think they have a winning design for a quieter supersonic jet, one that will create a hum similar to that of an air conditioner below the flight’s path.
The Concorde, whose last flight was in 2003 due to economic problems following a fatal crash three years earlier, was propelled to a cruising speed of about 1,350 miles per hour with four Rolls-Royce engines. NASA and Lockheed, however, realize the supersonic jet of the future needed to be scaled down. They rethought the design, which they liken to that of a paper airplane, and choose a single engine.
Their solution focuses on changing the paths of the shockwaves caused by supersonic flight.As it jets through the air, a supersonic plane is forcefully pushing aside air molecules, creating shockwaves (think of the waves a boat makes as it glides through water) that move outward.What is heard on the ground, after the fast-moving plane has passed, is the sonic boom. The area where that sharp noise is heard is called the boom carpet.
NASA and Lockheed’s design places a single engine on top of the plane, which NASA hopes will help lead to a “sonic thump” instead of the jarring boom. NASA and Lockheed say the design can prevent the N wave of a sonic boom—so called because of the form the pressure changes make when charted. The waves can be made to not pile up on one another with the new design, which ensures they are spaced farther apart, creating a less jarring “shaped boom.”Part of the problem with current supersonic booms is “the startle factor,” Peter Iosifidis, a Lockheed Martin engineer who manages the Quiet Supersonic Technology (QueSST) program, tells Quartz.”When you look at traditional supersonic airplanes, they weren’t designed for a low sonic boom. They were designed for speed, and some might argue, efficiency,” says Iosifidis.
NASA successfully conducted wind-tunnel tests of the design this year and is working on building a demonstrator jet that could fly by 2021. Researchers would fly it over communities to collect sound data and survey reactions.
They’re not alone in their quest. Supersonic startups like the Richard Branson-backed Boom Technology and Aerion Corp, supported by Texas billionaire Robert Bass, are also trying to bring back ultra-fast commercial flight, focusing more on less-restricted flights over the ocean. | aerospace |

Remarks by Johan Visschedijk
: "The Fw 57 was Focke-Wulf's first venture into the field of all-metal stressed-skin construction. It was conceived in answer to an RLM specification issued during the late autumn of 1934 which called for a long-range heavy fighter or Kampfzerstörer. The specification was issued to six companies; AGO, BFW, Dornier, Focke-Wulf, Gotha, Heinkel and Henschel. After an initial examination in December 1934, three of these projects were chosen for further evaluation, the BFW Bf 110, the Henschel Hs 124 and the Focke-Wulf Fw 57.
The largest of the three projects, the Fw 57 was designed by Dipl.Ing. Bansemir. It was a low-wing monoplane with a fully retractable tailwheel undercarriage and provision for a crew of three; pilot, bomb-aimer and gunner. The cantilever wing was built in three sections with main and auxiliary spars. The fuselage was a circular monocoque structure with a fully glazed nose section and a stepped cockpit. An electrically operated Mauser dorsal turret was developed for the project, this being designed to carry a 20mm MG FF cannon. Two further MG FF cannon were to be mounted in the nose, operated by the bomb-aimer.
Two powerplants were specified for the Kampfzerstörer projects, the Junkers Jumo 210 and the Daimier Benz DB 600, both twelve-cylinder liquid cooled in-lines. The Fw 57 employed two of the latter engines, each of which developed 910 hp for takeoff, and drove three-bladed variable-pitch metal airscrews.
The first prototype, the Fw 57 V1 made its initial flight in the late spring of 1936 with Flugkapitän Wolfgang Stein at the controls. No armament was installed in the aircraft, although it did carry a mockup of the Mauser gun turret. Trials showed that the Fw 57 V1 was seriously overweight, the wing structure alone weighing some five times the figure originally calculated!
At this stage, the RLM favored the Henschel Hs 124 of the three designs under consideration, but following the intervention of Ernst Udet, who considered the faster and lighter Bf 110 a much more promising proposition, a complete revision of the Kampfzerstörer specification was undertaken. The whole idea of a composite heavy fighter and light bomber was abandoned in favor of two separate aircraft; that of a Zerstörer or heavy fighter to which the Bf 110 was adapted, and that of a Schnellbomber or fast bomber to which the Ju 88 was eventually produced.
By this time the testing of the Fw 57 was purely academic. Apart from excessive structural weight, the Fw 57 also proved to have poor handling characteristics. Eventually the Fw 57 V1 was forced to make an emergency landing in soft ground and was written off. Two further prototypes, the Fw 57 V2 and V3 were completed and flown during the summer and autumn of 1936, but by then it was realized that the aircraft was a complete failure and it was abandoned. The two later prototypes differed from the first aircraft in having a taller rudder and revised control tabs for the rudder and elevators. Like the Fw 57 V1, both aircraft were unarmed." | aerospace |

David
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A two-seat plane had to be escorted to the ground by an F-15 fighter after straying into a restricted zone around Camp David in Maryland. President Barack Obama is spending most of the Fourth of July weekend with his family there.
Authorities tried to contact the plane via radio Saturday, but it did not respond. It was intercepted about 1:20 p.m. about six miles from Camp David and escorted to Hagerstown, Md., where it landed.
A spokeswoman for the North American Aerospace Defense Command, Capt. Angela Young, said the plane was flying from Salisbury, Md. The pilot was met by local law enforcement after landing in Hagerstown. | aerospace |

At least one person died after a Southwest plane experienced serious engine trouble Tuesday and was forced to make an emergency landing in Philadelphia. Seven other people on board Flight 1380 were injured.
"We do have information that there was one fatality," National Transportation Safety Board Chairman Robert Sumwalt told reporters during a news conference. Philadelphia Fire Department Commissioner Adam Thiel had previously told reporters that one person was transported to the hospital in critical condition and that the seven others were treated at the scene for minor injuries.
The Boeing 737-700 had 143 passengers and five crew members on board as it headed from New York to Dallas, according to the airline. (Sumwalt's number slightly differed — he said there were 144 passengers.)
The plane made the emergency landing "after the crew reported damage to one of the aircraft's engines, as well as the fuselage and at least one window," according to the Federal Aviation Administration.
Thiel told reporters that firefighters "found a fuel leak and a small fire on one of the engines."
Photos taken by passengers on Flight 1380 and others showed that one of the plane's windows was blown out and parts of an engine were ripped off.
"Something is wrong with our plane! It appears we are going down!" passenger Marty Martinez said in a live-stream video as he breathed through an oxygen mask. He said on Facebook that an explosion outside the window injured a woman sitting next to it.
Passenger Kristopher Johnson told CNN, "All of a sudden we just heard this loud bang rattling and then felt like one of the engines went out, the oxygen masks dropped.
"We just got the mask on, and as soon as we landed we were thankful. The pilots did a great job, the crew did a great job, got us down in Philly."
Southwest Airlines said it is "in the process of gathering more information" and did not immediately indicate what caused the trouble. The FAA says it is investigating the incident, which will be led by the NTSB.
Sumwalt, the NTSB Chairman, said that the federal agency is deploying a "go team" to conduct an "extensive investigation." He says that the flight recorders have been secured from the plane, and the investigators expect to receive a preliminary readout this evening. The engine will be shipped off-site for inspection, he said.
The flight tracker FlightAware shows that the plane took off from New York's LaGuardia Airport at 10:27 a.m. ET, then suddenly turned sharply toward Philadelphia, where it landed at 11:23 a.m.
Philadelphia International Airport said the plane landed safely and that passengers were taken to the terminal. It added that people on other flights to and from the airport should expect delays.
CNN video showed the plane on the tarmac as rescue workers operated around it. Firefighting foam was visible on one side of the plane.
Although the airline hasn't officially confirmed what led to the emergency landing, Aviation analyst Miles O'Brien told CNN that the images of the plane show signs of "uncontained engine failure."
He said this could mean that a piece of the engine came off and escaped from the cowling. "And this could be a very hazardous situation because essentially those are ... pieces of shrapnel that come off at very high rates of speed and can easily pierce the skin of the aircraft."
Sumwalt stated that "uncontained engine failure" is a technical term that they are not certain is accurate yet, because it would refer to shrapnel from a specific part of the engine.
"Even though we believe there were parts coming out of this engine, it may not have been in that section of the engine that technically would qualify this as an uncontained engine failure," he said, adding that they are characterizing it as simply an "engine failure" for now.
Southwest is known for its strong safety record. In fact, Tuesday's fatality appears to be the first person to have died on one of the airline's planes as a result of an accident. According to industry analyst The Points Guy, the airline has been involved in one previous incident that resulted in a death on the ground, when a Southwest plane struck three cars in Chicago as it slid off a runway.

Abstract. In November 1995 a campaign of satellite radiotomography supported by the EISCAT incoherent scatter radar and several other instruments was arranged in Scandinavia. A chain of four satellite receivers extending from the north of Norway to the south of Finland was installed approximately along a geomagnetic meridian. The receivers carried out difference Doppler measurements using signals from satellites flying along the chain. The EISCAT UHF radar was simultaneously operational with its beam swinging either in geomagnetic or in geographic meridional plane. With this experimental set-up latitudinal scans of F-region electron density are obtained both from the radar observations and by tomographic inversion of the phase observations given by the difference Doppler experiment. This paper shows the first results of the campaign and compares the electron densities given by the two methods. | aerospace |

Militant groups operating in Idlib have located and captured the pilot of a Syrian Air Force Su-22M3 fighter-bomber that crashed behind insurgent lines in the southern countryside of the province on Wednesday.
Specifically, it appears that the Al-Qaeda-linked Hayat Tahrir al-Sham terrorist group was the faction that caught the pilot, given it was their media that showcased the event.
Video footage has been released showing the pilot in the custody of jihadist fighters at night (likely a very early Thursday morning) after apparently being captured near At-Tamanna.

The project was already ready in the year 2000 with a factory exit in 2008 with certification in 2013.
Designed for strategic and tactical transport missions, the A400M is capable of carrying up to 37 tonnes of cargo over 4,500 km. It is a very maneuverable aircraft is equipped with advanced technology in the military field. (The same technology as the A380.)
His first flight was inaugurated on December 11, 2009. These 4 engines “EuroProp International TP400-D62” type “Turboprop” have a power of 8,665 kW each. It is used for the transport of troops, freight but also for humanitarian purposes.
Countries like Germany, Turkey, Malaysia or Luxembourg have also been very interested in this device…
What we can remember from this aircraft is that it has a very large radius of action, a maneuverability out of norms, and a technology that can protect it during its operations.

The war, 1950 – 1953, saw the introduction and widespread use of jet engine-powered aircraft. Many of the records are considered sketchy at best, due to inaccurate record keeping, pilot exaggeration and the inability to confirm some of the crashes in what was known as MiG alley – an area where the majority of air-to-air combats took place.
Overall Ace Statistics by Country
Only pilots from four nations received flying ace status:
China: 6 - 9 aces
North Korea: Up to 4
Soviet Union: Possibly 34 – 60
United States: 40 Documented
Top U.S. Ace Pilots and Their Aircraft
Of the 40 ace pilots from the Korean War, 39 flew the F-86 Sabre almost exclusively. The 40th, Major Frederick Blesse of the US Air Force, flew the F-86 Sabre, but also the P-51 Mustang and the F-80 Shooting Star.
Below is a list of the top US flying aces of the Korean War based on their victories. All were members of the US Air Force.
Captain Joseph McConnell – 16 victories
Major James Jabara – 15 victories
Captain Manuel Fernandez – 14.5 (1 shared) victories
Captain George Davis – 14 victories
Colonel Royal Baker – 10 victories
First Lt. Harold Fischer – 10 victories
Colonel James Johnson – 10 victories
Captain Lonnie Moore – 10 victories
Captain Ralph Parr – 10 victories
Lt. Colonel Vermont Garrison – 10 victories
Though not on the top ten list, a ace pilot worthy of mention is 1st Lieutenant Henry Buttelman also of the US Air Force. Buttelman, a member of the 25th Fighter-Inceptor Squadron is credited with being the youngest American ace of the Korean War. Of his total 7 victories, 5 were within an impressive 12 day period.
Of the more than 1,000 pilots who flew throughout the Korean War, only 355 of them were given credit for aerial victories. And though the list of top US flying aces of the Korean War continues well beyond Lt. Garrison, the pilots listed are credited as being among some of the best flying aces of the war. | aerospace |

A group of lucky youngsters from Holywell will take the controls of a light aircraft during a special day of flying lessons at Hawarden Aerodrome in Flintshire today.
The Ysgol Treffynnon pupils are being rewarded after successfully completing the Airbus Foundation’s Flying Challenge programme, a youth mentoring scheme that has seen the youngsters attend 20 weekly sessions at Airbus Broughton to gain insight into the aviation and aerospace industries.
Today’s big Flying Day finale, supported by leading aviation charity partner fly2help, will see the Year 9 pupils take to the skies in two Piper Cherokee light aircraft and be given a flying lesson, even getting a chance to take the controls of the plane.
Airbus Community Relations Manager Phil McGraa said: “The Flying Challenge programme gives the students a unique and potentially life-changing opportunity to work with Airbus mentors to develop relevant skills and inspire them in their future endeavours.
“The Flying Challenge programme is the Airbus Foundation’s largest international youth mentoring scheme in which they complete a skills portfolio and achieve a nationally recognised qualification. Airbus in the UK is committed to projects involving schools in the region, with youth development and education being among the core strands of the company’s community-engagement agenda.”
An Airbus Foundation Flying Challenge graduation ceremony will take place at the school next month.

Roll, pitch, and yaw are the three types of motion on a plane. A change in any one of the three types of motion affects the other two.
Check out the interactive image of the ailerons, elevator, and rudder of a plane here:
The camber of an airfoil is the characteristic curve of its upper or lower surface (see below). The camber determines the airfoil's thickness. But, more importantly, the camber determines the amount of lift that a wing produces as air flows around it. A high-speed, low-lift airfoil has very little camber. A low-speed, high-lift airfoil, like that on the Cessna 150, has a very pronounced (curved) camber.
You may also encounter the terms upper camber and lower camber. Upper camber refers to the curve of the upper surface of the airfoil, while lower camber refers to the curve of the lower surface of the airfoil. In the great majority of airfoils, upper and lower cambers differ from one another.
II: Controlling Roll, Pitch, and Yaw
The ailerons, elevator, and rudder control the movement of a plane. These are called the "control surfaces" because they are surfaces that control the movement of a plane!

Air Marshal Chaudhari is the Vice Chief of the Air Staff at the moment.
“The government has decided to appoint Air Marshal V R Chaudhari, presently Vice Chief of Air Staff, as the next Chief of the Air Staff after the retirement of Air Chief Marshal RKS Bhadauria on September 30,” the ministry said in a brief statement.
Chaudhari has served numerous command, staff, and instructional positions until being named Vice Chief of Air Staff on July 1.
He was the commander-in-chief of the Western Air Command (WAC) before becoming Vice Chief of the Indian Air Force. The Western Air Command (WAC) is responsible for the protection of Indian airspace in the sensitive Ladakh region as well as other portions of north India.
Air Marshal Chaudhari, a graduate of the National Defence Academy, was commissioned into the Indian Air Force’s fighter stream on December 29, 1982.
The officer has flown a wide range of fighter and trainer aircraft in the IAF’s inventory during the course of his roughly 38-year service.
He has over 3,800 hours of flight time under his belt, including operational flight time in MiG-21, MiG-23 MF, MiG 29, and Su-30 MKI fighter jets.
He has also commanded a frontline fighter base and served as the commanding officer of a frontline fighter squadron.
Apart from several operational concerns, Air Marshal Chaudhari will have to deal with issues relating to the armed forces’ ambitious theaterization strategy.
The theatre commands are being designed to integrate the capabilities of the three services and ensure that their resources be used to their full potential.
The theatre commands are being established as part of a bigger mission to ensure that the three service chiefs work together to meet future security threats.
Gen. Bipin Rawat, the Chief of Defence Staff, has been working on bringing the three services closer together and reforming military commands to better deal with future security problems.
The impression that the Indian Air Force has doubts about the theaterization initiative is developing. | aerospace |
