The aircraft operating AM742, an Aerius 787-100RE registered 10L-XM2, suffered a mechanical failure during landing at Londinium Internation Airport, causing a landing gear to extend incorrectly. As the aircraft was at too low an altitude to climb back up for another pass, It landed, causing the wheel to burst and send the nose of the plane flying into the air before smashing down again, resulting in the collapse of the plane's structure. The aircraft broke into three pieces scattered across the field adjacent to the runway before exploding several hours later due to a fuel leak. Out of the 352 people on board the aircraft, only 1 survived.
Londinium was part of the normal Ackrinj-Lipsia route operated by Alimperiale. The captain of the 5th - 6th July 1999 flight was Augustus Olivius, an experienced pilot with over 53,000 flying hours, close to retirement. His co-pilot was Tunamsir Livnius, a Xanj recruit who had just gained his wings two months prior. The flight engineer was Frederik Miller, an exchange pilot from Scandinavia's carrier Luftus, who also had significant experience.
AM742 was carrying 337 passengers, including 12 flight attendants and the 3 piloting crew members. Many of the passengers were families escaping from Xanjon to holiday in the warmth of Lipsia's beaches for the summer holidays. Approximately one third of all the passengers were children of various ages ranging from two to sixteen.
The actual flight was uneventful: the aircraft encountered some slight turbulence about halfway to Londinium, but the plane was not affected much by it.
Problems began to occur when AM742 began its descent to Londinium Airport in the early hours of the 6th July 1999. At 1,000 feet, AM742 lowered its landing gear. However, a mechanical failure that engineers did not pick up before the flight began resulted in the front landing gear's locking mechanism activating incorrectly. The vibrations caused by the lowering of the landing gears, the wheel turned, ending up with its side facing the runway before the locking mechanism activated, locking the wheel in place.
While the flight crew detected this error, they could not pull up and attempt another pass as they were already too close to the runway. The pilots declared an emergency and Londinium air traffic was halted and emergency vehicles dispatched. As the plane landed, the high pressure and friction acting upon the wheel made it burst. The explosion sent the nose into the air before it smashed back down onto the ground at a high speed. This broke up the plane into three distinct pieces: the cockpit, the cabin, and the tail. These pieces, along with the four wing engines, were scattered across the field adjacent to the runway.
Most of the people on board were killed in the initial breakup, including pilot Olivius and flight engineer Miller. The co-pilot, Tunamsir Livnius, survived the breakup of the plane and managed to escape the cockpit. However, instead of moving away from the wreckage, and ran into the cabin to search for survivors.
The airport's fire brigade fought the fire for several hours before they gained control of the blaze. Subsequently, medics ran into the wreckage, beginning to carry out bodies. However, no survivors were found.
Meanwhile, deep within the wreckage, Livnius was still searching for survivors. The first person he came across was a young, five-year-old boy hunched over the body of his father. According to an interview of the boy, eventually identified as Alois Maritus, he continually, in panic, called for his father to wake up. Then, Livnius attempted to comfort the boy.
"I was crying for my father to wake up. Then the copilot came up to me and said, 'Daddy's gonna be asleep for a very long time.'"
— Alois Maritus - AM742 survivor, AM742 - 10th Anniversary of the Crash that Shocked the World, Roman Broadcasting Corporation, 2009
After finding several other survivors, Livnius and Maritus made their way out of the wreckage. A scared Maritus sprinted towards rescue crews. The other survivors, all severely injured or exhausted, staggered their way towards medics. | aerospace |

Microsoft and also Google are examples of business that currently use the general public satellite photos, also known as remote sensing images. While these images are remarkable and also in many cases possibly useful, some individuals examine whether these advancements imply completion of conventional drone 720x kopen. The resounding answer is “No, Drone photography is alive and also well.”
One factor Drone photography remains an important tool is because of its premium resolution. Specifically with the advent of industrial electronic tools, an Drone system provides very high resolution photos, whereas satellite resolution remains limited by both modern technology as well as by Federal regulation. In 1999, business satellites could record a resolution of one-meter in black and white, as well as rather much less information in shade. That is to claim that the smallest detail that can be recorded as well as clearly defined was at least one meter in size. There exists a popular report that army satellites can read a car’s permit plate from space, and that is possibly an exaggeration, but it does not matter also if it holds true. You, as a private citizen, could not buy or make use of those images anyway. Present legislation restricts the resolution of commercially offered satellite images to 0.5 meters. That implies that the smallest detail that can be clearly defined is at the very least 0.5 meters, or 19.5 inches across. An Drone photo in greatest electronic resolution extracted from 1000 feet in the air is roughly 5 times far better resolution than the most effective commercially readily available satellite imagery.
Another difference between Drone photo photos and also satellite photos is the timeliness and schedule of the pictures. Commercial satellites orbit the earth from concerning 400 miles above mean sea degree. They orbit in a pattern and a speed that allows them to overlook the very same factor on the earth concerning once every three days. This is simply great for surveying and also mapping. It does not normally enable recording occasions. Usually speaking, the planet is darkened about 60 percent of its surface area at any kind of particular time. The three-day cycle for a satellite to fly over one point could imply that it could take from a couple of to numerous loads cycles prior to a clear shot is readily available. Drone flight is likewise subject to weather, yet airplanes could fly under cloud cover and also are readily available for a photographic launch anytime between sunup and sundown. A restriction on Drone photography as a result of weather condition is usually a matter of a few days, not normally weeks or months. | aerospace |

The Australian Transport Safety Bureau has launched an investigation into how a Virgin Australia Boeing veered off the runway during landing at Darwin International airport on 6 December. It subsequently veered off the runway. Investigators have been dispatched to inspect the aircraft, runway and surrounding area, while further information from the aircraft and air traffic control is being gathered.
Does anyone know what is happening to the airstrip at port Vila. Virgin Brisbane to port Vila turn back to Brisbane as the air strip was too unsafe to land. No information when flights will return.
Posted August 02, Virgin Australia turned back a flight from Brisbane to Port Vila on Monday, and cancelled another, due to new concerns that Vanuatu's international airport runway had deteriorated since emergency repairs earlier this year. In tweets responding to passenger queries on Tuesday, Virgin was unable to give a definitive date for the re-establishment of the Port Vila service. Qantas and Air New Zealand suspended flights to the Pacific tourist destination in Januarywith Virgin suspending its services a few days later.
Christchurch: An aeroplane crew with a "high workload" mistook a wet runway for one that was merely damp, landing dangerously close to the end of it, an investigation has found. The aircraft's operator, Virgin Australia, had changed its policy on landings from treating damp runways as wet ones to treating them as dry ones several months before the incident. The Virgin Australia aircraft stopped just 5 metres from the end of a shorter runway at Christchurch Airport, pictured.

Everything about taking a flight is crap. Getting jostled through security, squeezing into a tiny seat with a stranger constantly elbowing you, the looks of smug satisfaction from the first class passengers when you’re forced to walk by them. The whole experience is degrading.

The King’s Cup is a trophy that is awarded to the winner of the Royal Aero Club race which has been held annually nearly every year since 1922. The Royal Aero Club, Records, Racing and Rally Association held the first handicapped cross-country race on 8th September 1922 from Croydon South London to Glasgow and King George V presented the first cup to the winning pilot Frank L. Barnard.
Many different types of privately and company owned fixed wing propellor aircraft up to a certain weight limitation are able to participate in the King’s Cup. The race is still held annually, and apart from a few omissions such as WWII and a cancellation during the recent lockdowns, if the weather is fair on the day the flying teams can compete. There is a prize for aircraft is each class as well as an overall King’s Cup winner.
Winning aircraft manufacturers include de Havilland, Piper, Cessna, Grumman, Scottish Aviation (Bulldog) and Vans (RV’s). The King’s Cup race is always held in the United Kingdom and traditionally pilots from the Commonwealth countries are invited to compete.
Although the track course may change annually, the same course is set for all participants, designed and organised by the Royal Aero Club for their members. Aviation engineers asses the aircraft and allowances are made for the different power settings, wing loading, weights and top speeds of the individual airplanes. After some careful numeric comparison and analysis by expert ‘handicappers’ the winner is announced.
The aircraft take off at different ‘staggered’ timings depending on the speed and other important factors. The handicap process means that all participating experienced pilots should then eventually head to the finish line at once, creating an exciting flying spectacle for onlookers.
The King’s Cup trophy is awarded in a ceremony attended by racers, club members and members of the public. The winner is the pilot that has flown his or her aircraft in the fastest time compared to their aircraft’s pre-tested safe top operating speeds, whilst also following all the procedures and rules of the race perfectly.
Start and finish airports that have held the race over the last hundred years encompass Hatfield, Baginton, Rochester, Finningley, Leicester, Shobdon and Sywell. Airfields can be a valuable part of community life as they provide many opportunities for education, leisure, business and creating historical attractions with character.
The King’s Cup: Modern Racing Today
Over the years new technology such as computer software, spreadsheets and algorithms has enabled race managers to more accurately calculate who has flown their aircraft most competitively.
GPS navigation devices have allowed race organisers to improve tracking aircraft flying in the sky around set prominent buildings, features and landscape points on the ground and in the water according to their chosen cross-country round route.
Small battery operated GPS digital devices can also record the heights the pilots have flown at during the race. Pilots and their co-pilot ‘navigators’ may use tablets and in-cockpit navigation that uses GPS and internet based technology to assist their navigation as they follow a ‘hard copy’ specific printed route.
Since WWII some new general aviation airports have opened across the UK. Dozens of runways, small airfields and airports have also closed in recent years due to lack of funding, change of private ownership and the pressures on local councils to make financially focused decisions, such as allocating land to provide space for new housing development.
Interest and activities relating to general aviation and vintage aircraft continues to be an important and valuable part of society and heritage in the United Kingdom. Air shows and events are enjoyed by millions of people across the British Isles. British aviation reflects positive qualities in our country’s innovation, collaboration, skills development and teamwork. The friendly folk at local airfields welcome people of all ages and abilities every year and provide a positive space for families and pilots of the future.
The Queen’s Cup – King’s Cup Centenary Race Weekend
A unique Queen’s Cup – King’s Cup race was held by the Royal Aero Club on September 2023 at Old Warden Airfield (Shuttleworth), Biggleswade featuring aircraft all registered before 1962. Bob Johnson in his Stolp Starduster was the winner of the conventional class. Mr. Simon Tilling won the prestigious Queen’s Cup – King’s Cup in his winning vintage class DHC1 Chipmunk.
A glamorous formal 1920’s celebration club social evening event was then held, to celebrate the winning pilots and participants and mark the centenary of the King’s Cup in high style.

In the realm of science fiction this may not sound like a biggie, but in the world of the commercial space industry, this is huge. Elon Musk and SpaceX recently announced that they will shuttle two “private citizens” around the Moon in 2018. It will send the dynamic duo on an all expenses paid (they doled out “a significant” but undisclosed amount), unforgettable trip in SpaceX’s state of the art Dragon 2 capsule powered by their still-in-design Heavy Falcon rocket.
SpaceX extols, “Like the Apollo astronauts before them, these individuals will travel into space carrying the hopes and dreams of all humankind, driven by the universal human spirit of exploration. We expect to conduct health and fitness tests, as well as begin initial training later this year. Other flight teams have also expressed strong interest and we expect more to follow.”
According to SpaceX, the trip around the Moon would take approximately one week: it would skim the surface of the Moon, go further out into deep space, and loop back to Earth — reaching a distance of approximately 300,000 to 400,000 miles. And to give you an idea of cost, one ticket on the Russian Soyuz rocket to the International Space Station costs NASA around $80 million, so if you’re thinking about this one, start disrupting and Uberizing some ecosystem today.
Why does it matter? This actual Moonshot marks the furthest any human has gone into space in decades (breaking the Apollo 13 lunar mission of 249,000 miles in 1970). It shows us that dreaming big, reaching for the stars, and breaking all conceived notions of what’s actually doable, is all within our grasp. If successful, this new achievement could spawn new-fangled opportunities for space investors, entrepreneurs, researchers, and yes…travelers.

How to save time in manufacturing processes?
In nearly every field of manufacturing, components and the resulting products are becoming increasingly complex and more individual. At the same time, nowadays companies need to shorten the time between developing an idea for a new product and launching it on the market.
According to the Fraunhofer Institute, established manufacturing processes offer little or no scope for improvement in this respect. Additive manufacturing could help to save time and innovate the process in way to create value in manufacturing companies as well as the ability to realize entirely new product features. To achieve these goals, some aspects of the process need to be made available at an early stage of the product development process, including product, process and material data for additive manufacturing processes, innovative materials, and new kinds of production equipment.
Hybrid manufacturing of large, high-performance components
Today’s methods of producing high-performance and lightweight components (e.g. for aircraft) typically involve ablating up to 90 percent of the raw material, which must then be recycled. Hybrid manufacturing offers an alternative to these standard methods. Starting with conventionally produced blanks, it makes use of additive manufacturing processes to add additional geometric elements. Laser cladding, also known as laser metal deposition (LMD), is a particularly suitable additive process in this context. Its advantages include the ability to add geometric elements to three-dimensional parts of virtually unlimited size using an automated process. Compared to other additive processes, LMD also offers relatively high build rates.
However, commercially available LMD machines are expensive and can only handle parts up to a certain size. This is because laser metal deposition requires the use of a shielding gas to protect sensitive materials against oxidation. The current approach of placing the entire chamber in an inert gas atmosphere incurs significant costs while limiting the size of the components that can be machined.
The aim of the ProLMD project is to develop an economical process chain including the systems technology and LMD processes. In particular, the results of the project will be demonstrated on demonstrator components provided by the industry partners involved in the project. The ProLMD systems technology is based on industrial robots, an approach that reduces costs and boosts flexibility in terms of component geometry and size. Further benefits will arise from the development of a flexible shielding gas system which will only deploy shielding gas where it is actually required. The system will be rounded off with a new laser machining head that can work with both wire and powder as the filler material, plus a suitable CAM system for hybrid manufacturing. In parallel, research into LMD processes is being conducted for a range of materials in both wire and powder form. Experts will be performing detailed material analyses as a basis for applying the technique to highly loaded components and implementing geometric inspections of the built-up components.
The process chain will be demonstrated with applications from the project partners MTU Aero Engines (adding functional elements to an engine casing), Airbus (reinforcing components using 3D ribbing) and Daimler (adapting a press tool in car body manufacturing).

In addition, our legacy team has a history of innovation within the US Space program. We have staffed programs for the Department of Defense as well as NASA at companies such as Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman. Some examples of technologies pioneered by our engineers are:
Advanced radar tracking algorithms for the F-18 aircraft
Infrared on-orbit cameras for NASA missions
Missile and re-entry vehicle tracking systems and technologies,
Space debris detection tracking and removal technologies
Our team is standing by to enable you to meet your aerospace and defense research goals.
Redmoon Systems is following current developements with the Air Education and Training Command headquarters, where we are forming a proposal effort by the aerospace industry on commercial space partnerships. Some of the topics included on-orbit manufacturing and repair, propulsion and maneuvering, ground infrastrcture components, power collection, storage, and transmission, space domain awareness, in-space data centers, and modular space robotics.
We see our role as providing leadership in the technologies which will promote battle space logistics and advances in space exploration and resource utilization.
Summary: Group satellite together in such a way as to maximize coverage Data: For any possible grouping of satellites, a coverage percentage Goal: Assign each of N satellites to k groups, such that total mean coverage is maximized
Satellites change position and require constant reoptimization
Brute force solving is out of the question; even trivial subsets of the satellites form too many combinations to check Quantum technology offers a promise to perform combinatorial optimization much faster, while yielding better coverage outcomes
This type of situation is common in the internet communications field as well where satellite coverage may be required to provide persistent coverage of subscribers.
Redmoon Systems has an optimization technology which is able to achieve 15% more coverage than any existing method. Our software zeroes in on the best possible constellation configuration for any specific satellite and ground target problem.
The Firecat Moon mission involves placing a remote passive sensor (i.e. robotic telescope) on the moon at a location that has visibility of the LEO, MEO, and GEO terrestrial debris. Sunlight bouncing off the surface of the debris will provide optical signal for the sensor. Our goal is to detect, track, and characterize debris objects based on this information. Our proof of concept study simulated the amount of light reaching the telescope, and found that there is a lot of radiation present. Here is the analysis:
One noise source for the Firecat Moon Mission is the Earth limb radiating in the background. It seems reasonable that from the moon, the Earth only subtends a pretty small angle, so would rarely be a background clutter source. Earth shine scattered off of your optics if looking too close to earth limb might be a bit of a problem, but more a noise source than anything else. So I think Firecat has just a standard GEO debris tracking problem, except that the range from the moon is probably a bit farther than what most missions require. The photon signal level will determine the detector’s integration time.
There is roughly a 15 percent increase in signal level for the GEO debris as compared to the LEO debris.

When we learn physics in school, it is difficult to understand how to represent a falling ball as a math problem whose solution describes the real world. The first method we learned was Newtonian mechanics which is where everyone draws a force diagram, little arrows representing how a flower wants to evolve.
In college, we may learn something called Lagrangian mechanics which is a little different. For instance, instead of modeling forces, we talk about energy. Energy is often easier to find because it is always mass times velocity squared.
Lagrangian mechanics allows you to solve complex problems easily because you never need to know the forces at work.
But there is a trick to it. It requires identifying something called generalized coordinates, which can sometimes be challenging.
Actually, the invisible science behind Lagrangian mechanics revolves around a method or process known as the Calculus of Variations.
This involves two ideas: 1: that the differential equations of motion governing the dynamics of a classical or mechanical system can be deduced from a cost function and the fact that nature seeks to minimize the integral of this cost function. 2: that the way to identify the equations of motion require that we make small, even infinitesimal, changes in our path through the solution space.
In classical mechanics, the cost function has to do with energy minimization along a solution curve. Specifically, the cost function (Lagrangian) is defined on the tangent bundle (i.e. set of all tangent spaces to the solution curve, which contains velocity vectors). In Euclidean geometry, the “cost” function is actually the Euclidean distance, and is a metric defined on the solution curve or manifold itself (not the tangent bundle). The solution to problem in classical mechanics is a geodesic curve, i.e. one which minimizes the Lagrangian cost function.
In other domains, such as the infrared, it may be possible to construct a cost function based on the least action principle. However we must expand our notion of cost function.
In the example below, the epsilon parameter is a constant between 0 and 1 for each colored curve. Epsilon determines the scale of the effective blackbody curve, which is represented by the value epsilon = 1.
In the absence of any experimental data on the thermal radiator, all values of epsilon are equally likely. One may think of the radiator in as existing (from our perspective) in an undetermined state. By analogy to the Everett interpretation of coherent quantum states, unique versions of the radiator can be said to exist in separated realities. When an experimental observation of the radiator is made, a specific radiation curve is identified. The precise nature of the radiator is then known in “our” reality. In quantum mechanics, this process is called decoherence. A macroscopic object is unlikely to be in a true quantum state as such states require very low temperatures, however the uncertainty in radiant flux can be interpreted using the Everett representation.
The modeling task therefore is to perform a controlled decoherence of a large number of possible co-existant states into a single macroscopic state.
This can be performed using linear algebra, and the idea of a quadratic form as the cost function defined on a solution manifold. The matrix representing the form controls the mixing of individual time streams (realities). [per the Everett interpretation]
Note that the gray body curve is smooth, in contrast to the curve of the selective radiator. An example of a selective radiator would be a metal such as copper which when reduced to powder and burned in an open flame produces a specific set of peaks corresponding to its valence energy levels.
Space Policy affects nations and governments, all over the word. Our economies are shaped by our efforts to expand our consciousness among the stars, as new technologies and ideas are generated by our thirst for knowledge and exploration. Much of space exploration today takes place via robotic technologies, which are teaching us more about our world and galaxy. One thing is sure, what we do in space has a deep impact on Earth. Societies are shaped by the stories and myths we tell each other. Just think of how settling America affected economies around the globe. New industries opened up, and global consciousness grew out of pure exploration. If humans settled Mars or another world, how would our society change?
For the first time, x-ray frequencies have been used to study the passage of a giant exoplanet in front of its central star. The images taken tell us how x-rays are absorbed by the atmosphere of the planet, and how they interact with the planet’s moon. What kind of atmosphere would the planet need to support life as we know it? | aerospace |

They are dangerous in an accident situation !!
Important information for rescue personel.
Some of the aircraft we sell in Australia, New Zealand and the USA are fitted with ballistic parachute systems, these are parachutes which are fired with a rocket charge and are normally fitted to light sport aircraft.
They are as dangerous as a military rocket and should be treated with extreme caution by rescue organisations.
Rather than firing a bullet or missile with the rocket our system will pull a parachute from the aircraft in an emergency when deployed by the pilot and the plane and crew descend under the parachute.
Normally the explosive is very safe but in the event of an accident certain precautions must be observed.
For bomb disposal crews the explosive and quantity are...
Solid powder filling-smokeless powder LOVEX D250
Unit explosive mass around 0,325 kg
Download the Product Safety Sheet CLICK HERE
For removal from the aircraft in the field it is recommended the TRG or Bomb Squad be called in.
For other emergency personnel who need to handle the device in an extraction please cut away all cords and cables from the unit, do not pull on the firing cable (the firing cable is black, around 6 mm diameter and usually has a red handle in the end), cut off the firing cable close to the parachute or rocket body, remove the unit from the wreckage and take at least 30 meters (100 feet) away from personnel and leave for later detonation.

The aircrafts range of 1080 miles, and extended range of 2600 miles, with extra drop-tanks attached to the wings, it was superior over any of the Allied or German fighter's aircraft.
Powered first by an Allison engine, but a year later in 1944, a Packard-built Rolls-Royce Merlin engine became standard in the P-51. Thus, it achieved faster speeds and became the world's fastest propeller driven aircraft. Designed in record time, within 117 days, the aircraft went on to set every low altitude speed record. The fast, maneuverable airship flew higher, faster and farther than any other aircraft of its time
The P-51s provided high-altitude escort to B-17s, B-24s, and by war's end, P-51 pilots had destroyed 4,950 enemy aircraft in the air and an additional 4,131 on the ground. P-51s saw service in nearly every combat zone in the war, in the Pacific, they escorted B-29s to Japan from Iwo Jima.
Out of the 15,686 Mustangs built, less than 300 exist today; about 145 of them take center stage in airshows throughout the world. The wingspan of the aircraft is 37 feet; from nose to tail, it's 32 feet 3 inches long, compared to its height of only 13 feet 8 inches. | aerospace |

As we drew closer, looking at all the other planes on the way, I realized its nickname is The Guppy! It's a NASA aircraft, so I assume it was used to carry shuttle parts until the practice of piggybacking the shuttle on an aircraft came into use. Don't quote me on that, it's my guess. Anyway, it's a cute, but BIG airplane.
Since I'm a longtime member of the Guppy chapters of Sisters in Crime, I had to pose.
The Guppies were my lifeline when I moved out of Dallas and away from my other mystery writer friends and members of my Sisters in Crime chapters. The romance writers in Wichita Falls were a friendly bunch, but they weren't mystery writers. Since moving to Austin, I've found I'm among my own kind again, but I've formed such close bonds with online Guppy members, it would be hard to pry me away from that group! | aerospace |

Even if you’re not one of the 6 percent of Americans who believes that the moon landing was a hoax, you might have been fleeced by one or more of these fallacies about the final frontier.
Space Myth #2: American Space Missions Launch from Cape Canaveral.
If we’re using “Cape Canaveral” as an example of what your English teacher used to call metonymy—representing some thing or concept with the name of something else—then yes, NASA launches from the Cape. It’s the same way we might refer to the movie industry as “Hollywood,” even though only one major studio (Paramount) is actually headquartered in the Hollywood district these days—they’re all elsewhere in Los Angeles. The same is true of NASA: in strict geographical terms, it hasn’t launched manned missions from the Cape itself in over forty years. | aerospace |

Lutton takes command
MINOT AIR FORCE BASE The 91st Missile Wing at Minot Air Force Base has a new leader.
Col. Michael Lutton became commander of the missile wing in a change of command ceremony Tuesday.
Maj. Gen. Jack Weinstein, commander of 20th Air Force at F.E. Warren AFB, Wyo., presided over the ceremony.
Lutton and outgoing commander Col. Robert Vercher traded jobs. Vercher will become deputy director of Mission Assessment and Analysis at Headquarters U.S. Strategic Command at Offutt AFB, Neb., a position Lutton held from June 2012 until now. Vercher was commander of the Minot missile wing since June 2012.
Lutton said he looks forward to serving the missile wing and its personnel and being part of the base and local community. His wife, Brenda, and their two children, Kyle and Bridget, listened from the audience as he talked about their move to Minot AFB.
Vercher thanked everyone for his time as commander of the missile wing and especially thanked the “Rough Riders,” the men and women of the 91st Missile Wing “who inspire me each day.”
The 91st Missile Wing is one of three operational intercontinental ballistic missile wings in Air Force Global Strike Command. Its mission is to secure, maintain and operate 150 Minuteman III ICBMs in underground facilities in an 8,500-square-mile territory comprised of several counties surrounding the Minot base.
Weinstein, in remarks prior to the formal change of command, thanked members of the missile wing for their “unwavering dedication to the ICBM mission.” He said it is “a demanding business that requires 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.”
“Your continued focus on the mission enables the United States to have a safe, secure and effective nuclear force,” Weinstein said. He said it has never failed in deterring this nation’s adversaries. He also said the support of the local community is “absolutely essential.”
Under Vercher’s leadership, Weinstein tallied a number of accomplishments including working with state and local governments and industry representatives on encroachment issues and the successful integration of North Dakota Air National Guard members who provide security in the Minot missile field and for convoy operations. He said Vercher and his wife, Amy, supported the airmen of the wing and also pointed out they have done extensive work for a dramatic reduction of domestic abuse and DUIs. He said the wing also excelled, naming specific inspections.
Weinstein said Lutton “is a brilliant leader.” Lutton is a career space and missile officer. He has served in multiple weapon systems including the Peacekeeper ICBM system and the Milstar satellite communication system.
Weinstein said Tuesday’s change of command comes at a very important time for ICBMs. He said the Force Improvement Program, or FIP, has provided a list of suggested ideas from airman across the command. He said funding will be used to make numerous improvements, including in the missile field and for personnel.
Among changes for missile wings, as soon as Aug. 1 the helicopter squadron at Minot Air Force Base and other ICBM bases will come under a unit of 20th Air Force. Currently, the helicopter squadron’s are under each missile wing. | aerospace |

According to a viral video shot by one of the passengers in Lagos, the man illegally gained access to the airside with hand luggage.
The video also showed that the man illegally climbed the aircraft wing and deposited the bag inside one of the engines.
The aircraft was at the holding bay expecting clearance for take-off when the incident occurred.
The action caused panic and frenzy as some of the passengers immediately demanded the pilot and cabin crew to open the aircraft doors for them to disembark due to safety concerns. Mrs Henrietta Yakubu, General Manager, Corporate Affairs, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), who confirmed the development to newsmen said the man had been arrested. According to her, the stowaway was arrested by Aviation Security Personnel and was taken to Tango City, a FAAN security unit domiciled at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport,

The rudders of about 420 older Airbus jetliners are being subjected to repetitive ultrasonic and other enhanced inspections, the first time airlines and safety regulators have resorted to such recurring, high-tech procedures to determine the integrity of composite parts on airliners already in service.
The stepped-up inspection program, recommended by Airbus months ago and then reaffirmed by the European Aviation Safety Agency through a mandatory directive, calls for the first enhanced rudder checks to be completed within six months or 500 flights. Some inspections on certain planes must be repeated every 1,400 flights, a relatively short compliance schedule for checking structural integrity of primary flight structures.
The enhanced inspections, including ultrasound, X-rays and other techniques, stem from a March 2005 incident in which an Air Transat Airbus A310 suddenly lost its rudder over the Caribbean while flying from Cuba to Quebec. There were no injuries, and the plane returned safely to Cuba. But as a result, the plane's manufacturer, Canadian air-safety investigators and European regulators began investigating what, if any, additional inspection requirements were necessary to safeguard the integrity of such rudders used on early model Airbus aircraft.
While the changes primarily affect a relatively small number of older twin-engine A300s and A310s, they nevertheless represent a significant break from longstanding Airbus-developed maintenance standards for composite materials. Before the incident, Airbus, a unit of European Aeronautic Defence & Space Co., and European regulators maintained that simple visual inspections, combined with a mechanic's manually tapping on the surface of the composite rudders, were adequate to detect any potentially hazardous internal flaws or structural weaknesses.
But now for the first time, high-tech inspections methods are being required -- and must be repeated during the life of a what Airbus described as a "limited number" of Airbus jets -- to assure long-term rudder integrity. A spokesman for Airbus U.S. operations said only a small number of affected aircraft are flown by U.S. carriers. Spokesman Clay McConnell said about 400 A300 and A310 aircraft are covered by the added inspections, along with 20 wide-body Airbus A330 and A340 jetliners. Mr. McConnell said Airbus changed its rudder-manufacturing process before the 2005 incident.
The Star-Telegram reported on this issue a year ago (Nov. 12, 2006) because of the potential that it could be related to the 2001 fatal crash of American Airlines Flight 587 in New York:
Five years after an American Airlines jet crashed in New York City and killed all 260 passengers and crew members, questions linger about whether the type of plane involved has flaws that could imperil other flights.
An investigation concluded that the crash of Flight 587, on Nov. 12, 2001, in a Belle Harbor neighborhood, was largely due to pilot error. The co-pilot made overly aggressive attempts to steer the Airbus A300 as it bounced from side to side in turbulence created by another jet that had taken off ahead of it.
The pilot’s actions put so much stress on the aircraft’s vertical stabilizer, or tail fin, that it was torn off, fatally crippling the wide-body jet, the National Transportation Safety Board said in its final report. For a pilot to break the airplane’s structure in flight was unprecedented, the NTSB said.
But to this day, American, a group of its pilots who flew the jets and other observers contend that the safety board and its investigators rushed to blame the pilot and gave short shrift to evidence that pointed to potential flaws with the Airbus rudder controls or even a structural defect.
"I think there are a large number of troubling, unanswered questions" regarding the A300, said Michael Slack, an Austin attorney and former aerospace engineer. Slack represents the families of Flight 587 victims in liability lawsuits and has examined documents and questioned witnesses from American and Airbus.
Recently, new incidents involving damage to A300 tails and rudders have called into question the safety and reliability of the Airbus plane. They’ve also reinforced concerns about the growing use of carbon-fiber composite materials in manufacturing commercial airplanes. | aerospace |

U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren (R-IL) recently led some fledgling aviators in the STEM Scholars youth leadership program on their way to earning their wings.
Hultgren and the students took part in the Kishwaukee Educational Consortium High School Aviation Program at DeKalb Taylor Municipal Airport, which teaches students about aviation and aeronautical careers.
“Kishwaukee Educational Consortium’s aviation program is a model for getting high school students excited and engaged in the aviation careers,” Hultgren said. “From learning about aeronautics and the power of flight to new technologies in aviation and tackling flight simulators, the students’ eyes were opened to the world of flight.”
The program is a cooperative effort between Kishwaukee College and local school districts. It allows students to learn – through classroom and simulator sessions – about aerodynamics, FAA regulations, primary and GPS navigation, air traffic control and equipment like flight computers and radios. The goal is to prepare students for the FAA private pilot written exam and teach them about potential careers related to aviation.
“Several students that have graduated from this program have gone on to the Air Force Academy or have become commercial pilots, air traffic controllers, aviation mechanics, airport managers or flight instructors,” Hultgren said. “I hope to see 14th District high school students pursue the many opportunities in aviation.” | aerospace |

Military Warehouse Storage Tent
Yijin’s new military series tents can be used for long-term or short-term storage of military materials outdoors, and can also be used for field surveys, camping, exploration, construction, disaster relief, and for the parking of military aircraft and vehicles.
Yijin’s storage military tent is a prefabricated structure with a combination of units, which can not only be quickly erected and dismantled outdoors, but also has no restrictions on the construction terrain. It can also be used in temporary relief supplies warehouses!
Military Hangar Tent
Yijin’s military series tents also pay attention to the parking problem of military aircraft of military units, so combined with the characteristics of a variety of military aircraft, the bent-column hangar tent is launched.
First of all, the entire hangar tent adopts a clear span structure without a central column, which can meet the needs of military fighters and helicopters of different sizes and specifications to park in and out at will. At the same time, corresponding strengthening measures have been taken in part of the tent to resist the airflow jetted between the wings of the aircraft, so that the tent structure will not be damaged by the airflow of the aircraft.
The main frame is reinforced with high-strength aluminum alloy, which can resist high winds up to level 12, and the slope design of the curved column makes the snow easy to slide off, so that the tent has better snow load performance.
The structure of the hangar adopts a modular design, which can be easily and quickly built, dismantled and moved, and can also be reused many times, with a service life of up to 20 years. Moreover, the hangar tent can also be adjusted according to different models. The hangar tent has a high-efficiency energy-saving thermal insulation system. The hangar tent will also be equipped with lights, gates, exhaust windows and other complete equipment. In addition to the aircraft parking space, it can also be used as a maintenance center for military aircraft.

Part of their payload: a PalmSens4 potentiostat.
In 2018 PalmSens was contacted by ZIN Technologies Inc. for help on a new project. This project involved a glove box to be used in space for conducting micro gravity experiments to examine the influence of gravity on electrolytic gas evolution. For this project they had selected the PalmSens4 potentiostat to conduct experiments on-board the International Space Station.
Due to the fact that the PalmSens4 proved to be a compact, robust and reliable option, providing many options for integration with other software, the instrument was selected for experiments on-board the International Space Station.
Spacecraft instruments are selected to meet a mission’s science goals. One of the essential parts for this scientific experiment was an electrochemical workstation that could endure the trip to space and be a reliable part of the experiment. Mass, form factor and being able to withstand extreme conditions are important aspects for anything that goes in to space. This is why most instruments that are launched in to space are custom designed one-offs.
The PalmSens4 was selected because it proved itself to meet most of these demands already off-the-shelve and only needed small modifications to be mission-ready. In order to get it ready for space, we removed the battery and Bluetooth radio.
Another important aspect was the options for integrating the instrument with the software that controls the experiment. Time in space is expensive and therefore these experiments should require as little time from the operator as possible.Link to mission page on NASA website | aerospace |

These are images or pictures used by the airlines to promote their brand or to provide some humor. Some of the most popular airline Memes include:
– The airline Meme is an image of an airplane, usually black and white or a color scheme of the same. Often the airplane is flying slowly or with its nose pointing upwards. It may be a plane with a passenger on board. This could either be a commercial flight or a domestic one.
– Airplanes may also be shown in action. Examples of this include pictures of the pilot taking off or the flight attendants helping passengers or luggage.
– Sometimes the airplane itself is depicted. For example, a large plane is flying through the sky or it may be seen flying in front of a house or even a building. Sometimes airplanes are shown to be descending. For example, if there is a storm and a plane has to descend, it may depict it as having a cloud of white or a blue appearance.
– When there is actually a plane in the air, the airplane may be depicted in an aerial shot or in a video. It may show an aerial view of a city or even a city in motion.
– Sometimes the airplane itself is shown in an aerial shot. In these cases, the plane may be seen flying through the city or it may be shown as being near or flying over the ocean. This is especially common when the airport is not visible.
While these are the most common, there are many other images and videos that can be used to promote air travel. As a result, airlines use the Internet in a variety of ways to increase traffic and to promote their brand or products.
There are also many companies that offer the services of creating and posting the images that airline passengers have already come to know and love. You can find companies on the Internet that offer a wide array of options including images of airplanes, as well as images of local businesses, and even animals, places, people, and events.
There are a few different kinds of companies that provide these services. The most common type is the company that offers the services of creating the actual images that you see when you look out your window or on your computer screen.
However, there are also companies that offer web sites for those who would like to make their own image. These web sites allow users to add their own images and can be easily accessed. There is also a company that offers the service of posting the same images to several different web sites.
A third type of company that offers services of this type is the company that offers the service of adding the images to the Internet and posting them online. They then take care of distributing these images and using them on the Internet.
Each of these types of company has its own set of benefits and uses. The first is the benefit of allowing people to post their own images on the Internet and have them appear on various sites. The second is the benefit of having an image that is immediately available to millions of people. The third is the benefit of providing images that can be seen by thousands or even millions of people.
Airlines can also benefit from using these services because they can increase the visibility of their brand. As more people see these images, the brand will be seen by more people. | aerospace |

Bengaluru: With an eye on engaging the private sector to play a more active role in developing space technologies, the Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro) is setting up a space park on a 100-acre land in Whitefield.
Mars Orbiting Mission (MOM) programme director Mylaswamy Annadurai (left) said on the sidelines of the 103rd Indian Science Congress that Isro will be setting up the basic infrastructure at the space park, and will invite private industry players to work on space technologies there. He said the facility was expected to be inaugurated later this year and that the land to be developed into a space park in Whitefield belonged to Isro.
“The space park will see a lot of firms already working with Isro use our infrastructure and become partners,” he said. The plan appears to be in keeping with the future space projects planned by Isro in which the country’s premier space agency expects industry to play a much larger role.
The space agency is already planning the Aditya satellite project which involves launching a satellite to study solar coronograph, and Chandrayaan-2, the sequel to Isro’s Chandrayaan-1, which was launched in October 2008.
Chandrayaan-2 will be a lunar touchdown mission unlike Chandrayaan-1, which only orbited the moon to carry out experiments before intentionally being crashed into the lunar surface.
Annadurai said the launch of the GSAT 7-A satellite will be in 2017, even as Isro will have several other launches planned through 2016, including the GLSV MK-III. Among the important launches just round the corner this year is the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS)-G5 launch on January 20. | aerospace |

The coverages available can be selected for both business use as well as private pleasure use.
The insurance coverages that are available are for the “legal liability” of the aircraft owner for accidentally damaging property that belongs to individual owners as well as accidental injury cause to outside personal individuals and can include legal liability for accidental injury caused to any passengers.
There is also available insurance on the aircraft hull itself. The hull insurance can be arranged for those who want the hull to be insured while on the ground only or it can be acquired for those aircraft owners who want to insure the hull for both flight and ground risks of accidental loss.
The cost of insurance varies owing to the various underwriting and rating applications used by aviation insurer’s. Aviation insurers will take into account the year, make, model and value of the aircraft as well as the pilot’s level of experience, total hours of aircraft operation and the total hours experience on the type of aircraft being insured. | aerospace |

Traversing the tops of the North Pennines lies Britain’s highest paved road; at the end of it is an air traffic radar station. Sitting at 848m (2,782 ft), the station is a vital part of the air traffic control system for Northern England and Southern Scotland. An energy provider contacted Power Electrics when it required assistance with repairs and upgrades to the station’s mains and backup power systems, as well as temporary power while the works were conducted.
The energy provider was on site to complete an LV switchboard project and required temporary power to ensure their customer’s station stayed operational. They also required Power Electrics to upgrade a 1980s fuel transfer system as well as a series of remedial repairs that couldn’t occur while the system was live. The North Pennines’ weather challenged our team of generator experts while on site – sometimes limiting outdoor visibility to 10 feet.
Power Electrics provided a 500kVA generator to ensure the air traffic service station could continue to operate while work on its LV switchboard was undertaken. Our team replaced the almost 40-year-old fuel transfer system with a new custom-built Comap-based control system. These upgrades and repairs mean the station can continue to rely on its standby generator, should the mains energy supply drop. | aerospace |

I was excited that a piece of history would be flying over the Bay Area, but I was also bummed out because I knew there was no way I'd be able to leave work to scout out a good location to watch the shuttle pass. But I went out the entrance of the office building and stood on the top of the steps, scanning the skies in hopes that I'd be able to at least glimpse the spaceship.
(One of the Board members came by and razzed me because he was certain I wouldn't be able to see a thing.)
Luckily, the sky was crystal clear and a brilliant blue, so that the white shuttle popped out of the background as it flew overhead. It was small on the horizon, but I could clearly see Endeavour riding on the back of a larger plane. It's amazing to think that the planes we fly in for commercial travel is so much bigger than the vehicle we send into freakin' SPACE. Over the shuttle, but close by, a fighter jet was flying too. The plane looked like it was ascending higher, after it had dipped closer to the ground so that it could be seen clearly from Moffett Field in Mountain View.
It was so, so cool! I just wish my photo (taken with my iPod) was better. | aerospace |

My Dad and I share our 172, so Coflyt also lets us check how much fuel was left, how many hours until it needs an oil change, etc. Coflyt has made our lives as aircraft owners MUCH simpler!"
C172M Owner, CFII (Texas)
"Coflyt would be very beneficial. For one its very easy to use, on your phone, very convenient, and always in your pocket. As soon as you're done flying or even before you fly, you know is it legal and safe to fly."
Flight Instructor at SkyWarrior
"This is great! Could easily be converted for keeping up with aircraft data to know on the fly as well. Love it!"
Private Pilot (Louisiana)
"Very cool system, this is really powerful now. We could all keep our data current in the future."
Private Pilot (Mississippi)
"Coflyt would help us help a customer manage their aircraft maintenance, communication, and making sure things don't get overlooked as a result of paper logbook"

Wednesday’s attempt to launch Starlink, the firm’s effort to get into the space-based internet business, was postponed because of strong winds in the atmosphere. The Thursday delay, SpaceX stated on Twitter, was associated with assessing the systems it planned to start. The company could try again next week.
“Standing down to update satellite software and triple-check everything again. Always want to do everything we can on the ground to maximize mission success, next launch opportunity in about a week,” SpaceX agents said through Twitter.
Starlink is intended to provide affordable internet access to people around the world. The first five dozen spacecraft will not be nearly enough to do so; SpaceX will require about 400 satellites to provide minimal coverage and around 800 for moderate coverage, Elon Musk has said.
“This would provide connectivity to people who either don’t have any connectivity today or where it’s extremely expensive and unreliable,” Musk said during a Wednesday news conference.
Lots of organizations provide satellite internet with geostationary communications satellites 22,200 kilometers over the surface. Since the data signals have to travel up 22,200 miles and then back down, the performance can be laggy. That doesn’t matter if you are streaming a film, but it becomes intolerable when playing an online game which relies on fast reflexes.
The Starlink satellites will orbit much lower between 210 and 710 kilometers above the surface. That reduces the laziness or latency. SpaceX has said performance ought to be comparable to ground-based cable and optical fiber networks which carry most internet traffic now. Starlink would offer high-speed net to parts of the planet that now are cut off from the modern electronic world.
Mark Juncosa, vice president for automobile engineering in SpaceX, said that using 12 further launches, SpaceX could offer decent coverage over the United States; 24 starts would put enough satellites to cover most populated regions, and 30 will cover the entire world. | aerospace |

About Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO)
India decided to go to space when Indian National Committee for Space Research (INCOSPAR) was set up by the Government of India in 1962. With the visionary Dr Vikram Sarabhai at its helm, INCOSPAR set up the Thumba Equatorial Rocket Launching Station (TERLS) in Thiruvananthapuram for upper atmospheric research.
Indian Space Research Organisation, formed in 1969, superseded the erstwhile INCOSPAR. Vikram Sarabhai, having identified the role and importance of space technology in a Nation’s development, provided ISRO the necessary direction to function as an agent of development. ISRO then embarked on its mission to provide the Nation space based services and to develop the technologies to achieve the same independently.

This has long bugged many air travelers as you can
play work a lot during takeoff. This FAA regulation has been in place for many years, but recently it has come under scrutiny as it has been found by many reports that these devices simply don't emit enough radiation to cause a plane any problems. Many have become frustrated because pilots are using iPads in the cockpit during takeoff, but passengers are not allowed to. Some studies have proven that devices like the Amazon Kindle emit electrical interference of around .00003 volts per meter, much less than the 100 volts per meter planes are required to withstand.
The FAA feels your frustration and is going to look into the matter. While this does not mean they will change anything, at least they are looking into it and are going to give it a "fresh look".

Wind is a spin stabilized spacecraft launched with a Delta II rock on November 1, 1994. After several orbits through the magnetosphere, Wind was placed in a halo orbit around the L1 Lagrange point -- more than 200 Re upstream of Earth -- in early 2004 to observe the unperturbed solar wind that is about to impact the magnetosphere of Earth. Wind, together with Geotail, Polar, SoHO and Cluster, constitute a cooperative scientific satellite project designated the International Solar Terrestrial Physics (ISTP) program that aims at gaining improved understanding of the physics of solar terrestrial relations.
Engineering Operations Award [September, 2015]: The Wind Operations Team, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland, received the AIAA Space Operations & Support Award on September 2, 2015. The award honors the team's "exceptional ingenuity and personal sacrifice in the recovery of NASA's Wind spacecraft."

By Sahabi Abdul
Nigerian airlines shelved a plan to halt flights on Monday in protest at rising costs of aviation fuel and instead went into negotiations with the government.
The Airline Operators of Nigeria received promises from the government “to urgently intervene in the crisis being faced by airlines due to the astronomic and continuously rising cost” of aviation fuel, president of the group, Abdulmunaf Sarina, said in a statement.
After considering the likely impact a shut down will have on the economy and national security, members opted for dialogue with the government, he said.
Flight operations resumed across the country on Monday, according to reports. But there were few passengers at some of the airports, while some delays were reported at the Abuja airport.
Nigerian airlines have come under pressure from a spike in fuel prices, which was due to higher crude oil prices caused by the war in Ukraine. | aerospace |

These three Moose hunters fly to Alaska and charter a float plane to fly back to this lake they visited last year. They land on the lake and the pilot taxis up to the point and lets the men out. They unload their gear and the pilot announces that he’ll be back in three days.
Three days later, the pilot lands on the lake and taxis up to the point. The men load the gear and then strap a moose onto the pontoons.
The pilot then says, “That’s It. Let’s go.”
One of the men says,
“What do you mean that’s it. We have two more moose to load.”
The men and the pilot then get into a long discussion about the carrying capacity of the plane, the temperature and the lift of the air, the length of the lake, the weight of the men and the gear and the moose.
Finally, one of the men says, “Look. Last year we took off from this same lake with the same kind of aircraft, the same wind and weather conditions, the same three men, the same gear and three moose.”
And a bit later in the argument, he adds: “The only difference between this year and last year is the Pilot!”
They continue to argue and finally persuade the pilot to do it. So they load the other two moose on the aircraft and strap them down on the plane.
They then taxi to the far end of the lake and turn the plane around. The pilot shuts it off and the men get out and drag it back into the weeds. They then get back into the plane and grab hold of the trees and branches. The pilot restarts the plane and revs it all the way up. At top speed, he shouts, “Let go.” The plane begins to go faster and faster across the lake.
Finally, the plane takes off.
But the pontoons hit the top of the branches. The plane goes end over end…. The men go flying. The gear goes flying….The moose go flying….
After a few moments, one of the men comes to.
He looks around and yells, “Bill!”
After a moment , he hears, “Joe!”
“Bill — where are we?”
“Joe ….. Looks like about fifty feet farther than last year!” | aerospace |

The rocks, soil and sky of Mars have a distinct red color, which has been observed by stargazers for thousands of years. The ancient Romans named Mars in honor of their god of war. Other cultures have had similar names for this planet. The ancient Egyptians, for example, named the planet Her Descher, which means "the red one".
The atmosphere of Mars is very different from Earth's atmosphere. It contains mostly carbon dioxide (C02) gas, with small amounts of other gases. Martian air contains only 1/1000 as much water as our air, but even this small amount can form clouds that ride high in the atmosphere or swirl around the tops of giant volcanoes. There is evidence that in the past Mars had a much denser atmosphere that allowed water to flow on the planet. Mars has features which resemble shorelines, gorges, riverbeds and islands. These features suggest that there were great rivers on Mars millions of years ago.
Before space exploration, Mars was considered the best candidate for having extraterrestrial life. When astronomers looked at Mars through a telescope, they could see changes in the color of the planet, which they thought were caused by changes in the seasons. Astronomers thought that there was a bloom of green plants during the warmer months and that the Martian vegetation became dormant in winter months. Scientists thought they saw straight lines crossing its surface. This led to the belief that canals for irrigation had been constructed on Mars by intelligent creatures.
In 1938, the American film director Orson Welles made a radio drama in New York city. The drama was based on a book called The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells. When people listened to the radio story, many people belived that Martians were attacking Earth, and enough people believed in the story of invading Martians to cause a panic. The recent American movie Independence Day, where aliens attempt to conquer the Earth and are defeated by a computer virus, also appears to be based on this famous story.
In 1975, the American space probe Mariner 4 visited Mars and sent back 22 close-up pictures to Earth. The photographs showed a surface with many craters and naturally occurring channels but no sign of artificial canals or flowing water. In July and September 1976, Viking 1 and 2 landed on the surface of Mars. The three biology experiments aboard each space probe discovered unexpected and puzzling chemical activity in the Martian soil, but showed no clear signs of life. Many biologists believe the combination of solar radiation that saturates the surface, the extreme dryness of the soil and the soil chemistry make it impossible for living organisms to survive in the Martian soil. It is possible, however, that there was life on Mars at some time in the distant past.
The exploration of Mars by scientists from Russia and the United States continues. The Mars Pathfinder was launched by the USA in December, 1996, and will arrive at Mars on July 4, 1887. When the Pathfinder lands on Mars, it will release a small mobile car which will travel around Mars, taking pictures and gathering data and sending it back to Earth.
In the United States and other countries, however, there is a growing debate about whether or not a manned mission to Mars should take place in the near future. In the US and in other countries, organizations such as the Students for the Exploration and Development of Space (SEDS), Space Frontier Foundation, the Deep Space Exploration Society and the First Millennial Foundation are lobbying governments everywhere to attempt a manned mission to Mars within the next few years. Such a mission would be very costly, much more so than the Apollo lunar landing program. By some estimates, it would cost as much as 7 trillion Won ($100 billion US) to conduct a manned mission to Mars. Some scientists and entrepreneurs, however, believe it could be undertaken for much less cost. They believe that humankind should undertake a large-scale, long-term committment to explore, colonize and terraform the Red Planet.
According to NASA Administrator Daniel Goldin, "we must accomplish at
least four objectives before we are prepared for a Mars mission. We must
successfully build and operate the planned international
Space Station, gain working-level experience with other nations in space
cooperation, develop an affordable mission scenario that can be accomplished
in about one decade, and allow time for the world economy to improve substantially". With these goals in mind, NASA currently plans to operate the Space Station for at least the first decade of the next century, sending astronauts back to the Moon or on to Mars during the second decade of the new century. This time frame could change with technological breakthroughs.
"The dream of human exploration of Mars is intimately tied to
the belief that new lands create new opportunities", says Dr. Michael Duke of the
NASA Johnson Space Flight Center. "In human history,
migrations of people have been stimulated by overcrowding, exhaustion of
resources, the search for religious or economic freedom, competitive
advantage, and other human concerns. Rarely have humans entered new
territory, then completely abandoned it. In the past, there have always
been a few people who were adventurous enough to adopt a newly-found
territory as their home. Most of these settlements have eventually
become economically self-sufficient, and have enlarged the genetic and
economic diversity of humanity. The technological revolution of the 20th
Century, with high speed communication and transportation and integrated
economic activity, has reversed the trend toward human diversity; however,
settlement of the planets can once again enlarge the sphere of human action
"The settlement of Mars presents new problems and challenges.
Principal among these is the absence of a livable natural environment.
That, and the current high cost of transportation are the main barriers
to human expansion there. The fact that humans, once on Mars, can not
easily return to the Earth, and then only at specified times
approximately 26 months apart, makes it necessary to develop systems with
high reliability and robustness. The creation of a livable, artificial
environment, is technically feasible. The high cost of transportation
will ultimately be reduced.
"The human exploration of Mars will be an enterprise that confirms
the potential for humans to leave their home planet and make their way
outward into the cosmos", says Duke. | aerospace |

At an airfield hangar near Munich, where Lilium’s HQ is based, a multi-disciplinary design team is hard at work on one of the most anticipated technologies of the 21st century. The Lilium Jet will be the world’s first all-electric, vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) jet. Technological innovation aside, it instantly strikes you as a state of grace and beauty. The minimalist exterior flows elegantly from the nose and canards to the main wings at the rear, 30 quiet but powerful electric jet engines are integrated into the wing flaps.
“We aimed to design a timeless and approachable exterior, that generates attraction and creates a strong bond to the passenger”, Thomas Vanicek, Head of Design, explains. “But our cabin experience and interior design are so extraordinary that we believe our customers will fall in love with the Lilium Jet immediately.”From day one, a perfect harmony between science and fine arts was key to truly create something game changing. It fuses the full potential of electric propulsion with the first of its kind design – delivering radical better way of mobility with zero operating emissions.
The Lilium design department consists of a highly engaged, diverse and multidisciplinary team that is focusing on a holistic design approach
“The interior is designed as one big capsule. We intentionally radically differentiated our design from every common helicopter or business jet design to reinvent a significantly new architecture. No sharp corners, no boxy shapes, the iconic cabin embraces the passenger – we call it: Space Sphere Cabin. Every line and the CMF is following our seamless flow philosophy, by creating different horizontal spheres to extend the spacious cabin feeling and maximize perceived safety, the comfort and lifts you up in a pleasant atmosphere during your flight.”
Our cabin XP & flow
Our mission doesn’t stop here. The Lilium design department consists of a highly engaged, diverse and multidisciplinary team that is focusing on a holistic design approach. The team is validating all ideations through smart mockups to accelerate the process through the design sprints. Every detail of the Lilium Jet is well considered. “We’re looking for the most circular, sustainable material options. Therefore, we’re choosing long-lasting, easier to recycle materials, such as undyed fabrics and bio-based leather. We’re looking at bringing new sustainable materials into the aviation world as well, to offer our customers a full spectrum of individualisation and personal touch”, says Thomas Vanicek. | aerospace |

These flying robots managed by a remote controller are employed for entertaining and enjoyment all over the world. Created like a quadcopter, with or without a digital camera, these devices look wonderful and offer you effective features to the person. Nevertheless, prior to you try to fly this kind of an plane, you want to go through the tips cautiously otherwise you may well finish up hurting yourself or someone else. Furthermore, there are some authorized implications of such variety of an unmanned aerial motor vehicle due to the fact it may well land over unfamiliar territory and infringe on somebody’s non-public house.
Personal Use of Drones
The use of drones or unmanned aerial vehicles can be divided into two categories: private and business. Personalized use indicates you want to fly such a machine just for enjoyable and do not have any intention of promoting the content you accumulate when you fly your drone here and there. Professional use means employing the knowledge for the objective of generating income or marketing it to a 3rd celebration for revenue. In the United States, industrial use of drones calls for unique clearance from the FAA. Nonetheless, private use is allowed underneath specific situations thinking about that the person follows some well-defined guidelines.
You just need to have to bear in mind that private use of drones is not accompanied by many strict guidelines and rules. You can fly a drone for satisfaction and even consider photographs and report films for individual use. Even so, there are a number of protection guidelines that have to be adopted in order to make sure a risk-free and completely pleasant expertise. In addition, you require to be mindful that there are some no-fly zones just about everywhere in the entire world and you should at all expenses steer clear of people places when flying drones.
Want to Pursue Drone Traveling as a Passion?
Below are some basic safety and lawful guidelines for a beginner in buy to appreciate this pastime to its fullest:
· Make positive you do not consider your device to an altitude greater than four hundred ft otherwise it might go out of sight and become challenging to management.
· Your drone need to continue being in front of your eyes all the time.
· Unmanned aerial cars are not allowed to interfere in the routines of manned aircraft so make confident you maintain your device away from that type of aerial automobiles.
· If you think you cannot comply with your drone all over the place, organize for an assistant who will preserve an eye on the drone all the time so that it will not vanish.
· Try to discover an open room for pursuing this pastime the place there are not numerous people specifically tiny kids.
· Even if you do see people close to, try to keep your distance and keep it at 25 ft absent to avoid collision and injury.
range Stay away from traveling a drone when you are intoxicated or under the affect of medicines.
· Drones are not easy to fly especially for a amateur consumer who has no prior encounter of traveling this kind of a device. So, make sure you achieve enough information on its operation and how to fly it securely ahead of you attempt to fly a drone.
· Steer clear of traveling in excess of personal residence in buy to keep absent from lawful problems of intruding, eavesdropping and the like.
· If you are using a camera-equipped drone, make sure you never photograph men and women without their explicit permission. Also, avoid heading to general public places exactly where men and women expect a particular stage of privacy and they never want to see an unmanned aerial motor vehicle traveling above their heads.
It really is a great concept to read privacy coverage laid out by businesses related to aeronautics and aeronautical engineering. This is to make sure that you will not infringe upon somebody’s proper to privacy even if it’s a general public property or spot. There are places where drones are allowed but having photographs is not. You will also find some places the place flying a drone and getting images each are permissible and then there are spots where drones are not permitted to enter. These are identified as no-fly zones within the United States. So, in get to understand every thing associated to this issue, it is necessary to go through privateness policy.
Professional Use of Drones
Businesses like Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) have designed some basic safety tips in order to make sure nobody will get harm when drones are utilised on a professional or personalized amount. It is hugely advisable that you study and strictly stick to these tips particularly if you want to use a drone for some professional use. This is to make certain that you never experience any issue with regard to individual harm or injury or intrude on any person else’s home. You must also be informed if a specified kind of business use requires clearance from the FAA.
There are companies in the US and the British isles that are at present using drones for professional reasons. If they have taken security clearance from the FAA, they are not performing everything illegal. Some illustrations of individuals or companies that have been presented exemptions to fly drones include farmers, healthcare amenities, safety agencies, and railroads. The organizations also have to point out the variety of plane they will be using and the location the place those aircraft will be utilized. Most of these companies only demand clearance for pictures, videography and cinematography. Some other commercial utilizes contain aerial mapping, inspections, info acquisition and selection, search and rescue, revenue demonstrations, crop surveying, and visitors incident reconstructions. | aerospace |

He also stated that the Civil Aviation Authority is now responsible for holding non-governmental carriers accountable. Iraq’s air transport fleet owns 33 aircraft, and Al-Shibli said four more are scheduled to be acquired this year, bringing the total to 37 aircraft.
As a result of complaints about the decline in the level of services provided by some non-government national airlines, Al-Shibli confirmed that the Civil Aviation Authority, which has separated from the ministry, will now be responsible for imposing fines. In an earlier statement, the Transport Minister confirmed the conclusion of a contract with Boeing for more advanced planes. | aerospace |

They probably won’t belong to Tesla head honcho and Mars colonization enthusiast Elon Musk, although there’s a decent chance his SpaceX rockets will carry the first expedition.
Then again, SpaceX could falter, and the first humans on Mars could come from NASA, or maybe some future European, Chinese, or Indian space program.
But what gets me is that right now, we literally get photos from Mars every single day. The Perseverance and Curiosity rovers send back multiple pictures every day – each picture coming from so far away it takes minutes just to transmit the data, at lightspeed – giving us shot after shot of another planet.
What’s more amazing is that the photos are easily accessible. They’re online for anyone to see!
Heck, both rovers have Twitter accounts!
Other Twitter accounts relentlessly spit out picture after picture, showing us the rusty red and tan rocks and sand of another planet.
In my lifetime, we’ve gone from a few relatively grainy black and white images of Mars, to colour photos from orbit, to a series of increasingly sophisticated landers that now bombard us with image after image.
It’s still amazing to consider that all this comes from another planet, millions of miles away, on which no human being has yet set foot.
READ ALSO: PAINFUL TRUTH – What is normal weather?
I was born after the last human being had set foot on the moon, but it’s likely that within my lifetime, humans will return to manned space exploration, visit the moon again, and then Mars.
And then what?
We may or may not stay.
If you think we need to have permanent Mars colonies, then the logical question is why we aren’t colonizing Antarctica, or the floor of the ocean, or building floating cities that hover in our atmosphere (which has been seriously suggested as a method for colonizing the acidic and searingly hot cloudscape of Venus).
At least if you step outside on Antarctica, you can breathe! We’ve got a lot of space left right here where there’s air and water and a lot less of that pesky cosmic radiation and you don’t have to use multiple safety protocols to go for a short walk.
In the short term (by which I mean the next 500 to 1,000 years) colonizing Mars may be too difficult to be worthwhile. Moving vast numbers of humans there as a kind of lifeboat if the Earth gets snuffed out is a Plan B, I guess, but I’d rather we focused first on making sure that Earth survives.
But that said, I hope we send some humans for a visit.
You can’t extinguish the wonder of the fact that there are other planets. A few hundred years ago, they were blurry lights in the sky, and with telescopes and probes and rovers, we’ve filled in the details.
Someday, probably soon, someone will hear the crunch of Martian sand under their feet.

With the popularity of UAS, the FAA has issued guidelines for safe operation, and Texas A&M University has initiated a program to ensure compliance with the applicable rules and regulations.
Most flights on Texas A&M’s campus will fall under Part 107 of the FAA rules https://www.faa.gov/uas/). These rules include:
- Pilot requirements
- Must have a Remote Pilot Airman Certificate
- Must be at least 16 years old
- Must pass TSA vetting
- Aircraft requirements
- Must be less than 55 pounds
- Must be registered if over 0.55 pounds (online registration: https://registermyuas.faa.gov/)
- Must undergo pre-flight check to ensure UAS is in condition for safe operation
- Location requirements
- Class G airspace (note: most of Texas A&M’s campus is in Class D airspace, so any unmanned flights must be approved in advance by the FAA.)
- Operating rules
- Must keep the aircraft in sight (visual line-of-sight)
- Must fly under 400 feet
- Must fly during the day
- Must fly at or below 100 mph
- Must yield right of way to manned aircraft
- Must NOT fly over people
- Must NOT fly from a moving vehicle
(Blanket Flight Plans can approve multiple flights for a period of up to 1 year.)
If any Part 107 rules cannot be met by the pilot in command, the FAA will allow you to request a waiver. This waiver must be granted by the FAA before Texas A&M will allow you to operate a UAS on campus. To request a waiver from Part 107 rules, click here: https://www.faa.gov/uas/request_waiver/.
To request permission to fly a UAS on campus (or to hire a third party to fly a UAS on campus), complete the UAS Flight Authorization Application: Enter A UAS Flight Request .
After the Supervising Authority has reviewed the application and determined that flights can be conducted safely, the pilot in command will be given permission to fly in accordance with the details on the application.
To fly UAS for educational purposes, faculty members will be given an expedited review by the Supervising Authority. Contact EHS ([email protected]) to initiate a request for educational use of a UAS.

The capsule sent for the Artemis I mission to the terrestrial satellite has not only gone to carry out scientific and investigative tasks, it has also taken the opportunity to capture new images of the Moon as we have not seen it for a long time. Today, he posted a series of photos that show us the barren wasteland that awaits humanity in 2030.
These images were captured during the approach of the Orion spacecraft to the surface of the Moon; event that took place earlier in the week. Of course, NASA took the opportunity to provide the Artemis I mission with new satellite images, and despite the gloomy panorama, it represents an amazing postcard.
NASA uploaded the photos to its Flickr account. Here, not only the Moon appears, there are also images from before the launch of the Artemis I program. In fact, our planet also appears in all blue detail, and images of some astronauts aboard the International Space Station.
Orion photos prepare astronauts for what’s to come
In the images we see details as deep as the craters on the Moon captured by one of the 16 cameras on the Orion spacecraft. Although it seems that the lunar surface was completely gray, the truth is that NASA has taken the images in black and white. In fact, other studies have revealed that our satellite has more color than we can see.
How did all these craters get to the Moon? So far, we know that the satellite formed about 4 billion years ago, after a theoretical celestial object the size of Mars collided with our planet. Since then, the surface has remained unprotected with no atmosphere, making it an ideal pincushion for any celestial body entering its orbit.
In order to take these images, NASA has had to deal with years of delay with its SLS rocket. On November 16, he finally managed to launch it, with the Orion ship as the protagonist. Now the ship still faces a few days of orbit around the Moonbut will soon be back on Earth to provide more details on future trips to our satellite.
In a few years, a group of astronauts will be living and orbiting the lunar surface Thanks to the Orion spacecraft. The images shown by NASA are a representation of what this group of people chosen to colonize the natural satellite will see daily. | aerospace |

When 58 people died in a plane crash on airport approach
Fuselage of the American Airlines commercial aircraft after slamming into the Northern Kentucky hillside
American Airlines Flight 383 was a nonstop flight from New York City to Boone County KY on November 8, 1965.
The aircraft was a Boeing 727 with 57 passengers, and 5 crew on board.
The aircraft crashed into the Constance hillside in Boone County on its final approach to the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport. Only three passengers and one flight attendant survived the crash
Events leading to the crash
The flight was delayed for 20 minutes in New York.
Until the landing attempt, the flight from New York to Cincinnati was uneventful. At 6:45 pm Eastern Standard Time, the crew contacted the airline via ARINC company radio to report a 7:05 pm estimated time of arrival at Cincinnati.
The weather was fine near the airport except for thunder clouds developing northwest of the airport across the Ohio River valley.
At 6:57 pm, Flight 383 was cleared by the approach controller for a visual approach to Cincinnati's runway 18, and was advised of precipitation just west of the airport.
The aircraft approached the airport from the southeast and turned its heading to north to cross the Ohio River.
It turned west after crossing to the northern shore of the Ohio River, intending to make a final turn to southeast after crossing the Ohio River (which runs from northwest to southeast) again to the southern shore of the river. After that final turn, the aircraft would line up with the runway 18 of the airport to make the final approach.
At 6:58 pm, the approach controller transferred Flight 383 to the Cincinnati tower frequency. At 6:59 pm, Flight 383 received clearance from the tower controller to land on runway 18.
Crash into Constance hillside
The aircraft flew into thick cloud and thunderstorm after flying into the northwest of the airport.
It descended more than it should have, without either pilot in the cockpit noticing.
The airport is situated at an elevation of 853 feet and the aircraft had descended to the level of 553 ft above the airport while it was still about 5 mi northeast of the airport.
It descended to just 3 ft (per altimeter) above the airport while it was about 3 nm north of the airport.
Its correct altitude should have been just below 1,000 ft at that time.
The plane continued its descent into the Ohio River valley while crossing the river back to the southern shore.
When it made its last turn to the southeast to line up with the runway, it flew into the wooded slopes of the valley 3 km north of the runway threshold in poor visibility, at an altitude of 225' below the runway's elevation. It then exploded and was engulfed in flames.
Of the 62 people on board the aircraft, only four people (one flight attendant and three passengers) survived.
The Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) investigated the accident.
It was later believed that the following factors might have contributed to the crash:
Lights from the houses in the Ohio River valley, located 400 feet (120 m) below the altitude of the airport, may have conveyed an illusion of runway lights.
The flight crew may have been confused about their true altitude, due to misinterpretation of the aircraft's drum-type altimeter after descending through 0 feet (relative to the airport altitude), or they may have had their hands full controlling the plane in severe weather and simply failed to notice the readings on the altimeter.
A late departure from New York and the deteriorating weather at Cincinnati may have put pressure on the flight crew.
Despite the rapidly deteriorating weather conditions, the flight crew chose to make a visual approach to the runway.
Two years after the crash of Flight 383, TWA Flight 128 crashed on the same hill while on approach to Cincinnati under poor visibility conditions. In that one, 70 people died.
As a result, the airport constructed more aviation lights at the edge of the hillside for better navigation on the final approach.

Jet Airways Konnect and Jet Lite are brands of Jet Airways that differ in uniform, logo, interiors, cost, and management.
What is Jet Konnect?
Jet Konnect is the Jet Airways brand that offers high quality in-flight hospitality. Free services, like complimentary snacks, are offered to those passengers who choose to book with them. Jet Konnect is also believed to offer all the services that Jet Airways offers, which actually makes tickets more expensive. Jet Konnect is known for the benefits that their passengers get from them.
What is Jet Lite?
Jet Lite is a low-cost carrier aircraft that does not offer high quality hospitality. Because it is low-cost, they don’t have as much free services as Jet Konnect does. Passengers will need to pay extra if they want food. Jet Airways actually shifted its own aircrafts to Jet Lite due to recession. Because of their reduced passenger benefits, their tickets are more affordable than those of Jet Konnect.
A brief summary:
- Jet Konnect offers high quality in-flight hospitality while Jet Lite does not
- Passengers of Jet Konnect enjoy free services like complimentary snacks while passengers of Jet Lite need to pay extra if they want snacks
- Jet Konnect offers all the services that Jet Airways offers
- Jet Airways shifted its own aircrafts to Jet Lite due to recession
- Jet Konnect is more expensive than Jet Lite
- Jet Konnect is known for the benefits that their passengers get from them while Jet Lite has reduced passenger benefits | aerospace |

Lauderdale, Fla., is about to change, said Yeager Marketing Director Brian Belcher.
The discount airline currently links Charleston and Myrtle Beach on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday using 145-seat Airbus A319 aircraft.
Starting June 13, Spirit will continue flying the 145-seat plane on Tuesday but will use a 178-seat Airbus A320 on Thursday and Sunday. The Tuesday service will end the last week of June.
Spirit currently offers two nonstop flights a week to Ft. Lauderdale.
Starting on June 13, "instead of flying nonstop to Ft. Lauderdale, they'll run our flight to Myrtle Beach," Belcher said. "If you're going to Ft. Lauderdale, you'll stay on the plane, stop at Myrtle Beach, then go on. So it will be a direct flight but not a nonstop flight."
Spirit's website indicates that the airline's service to Myrtle Beach continues until Nov. 2 and the service to Ft. Lauderdale stops on Sept. 5.
Yeager Airport Director Rick Atkinson said, "September is not a heavy travel time after the Labor Day holiday. I know that they are looking at various options to best utilize the aircraft and match the capacity with the demand in the market."
Belcher said the airline's schedule is only final until July 1. "They won't put the rest of their schedule out until after July 1," he said.
"They haven't told us they're leaving our market," Belcher said. "Generally when an airline is leaving, they tell you way ahead so you can plan. And they haven't done that."
Belcher said he expects to know more about Spirit's long-range plans for Charleston by mid-June.
Spirit began offering service linking Charleston and Ft. Lauderdale on March 3, 2011, and began offering seasonal service to Myrtle Beach on May 3, 2011.
As previously reported, AirTran Airways' flights linking Charleston and Orlando, Fla., are scheduled to end June 2 as a result of Southwest Airlines' purchase of AirTran.
"Since April, they've been flying five days a week," Belcher said. "They've been heavily booked. We're very disappointed we are losing that. We will continue to promote Charleston and the Orlando route to all of the airlines until we get someone else running it."

Initial routes will be to Denver and Houston beginning March 29, an airline spokeswoman confirmed Monday.
American has assigned 20 of its new E-175s to Compass, and more routes from Los Angeles should be announced as the regional airline takes delivery of more aircraft. As Compass takes over more Los Angeles routes, Mesa Airlines will do more flying as American Eagle from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, American spokeswoman Martha Thomas said. For now, Mesa is one of American’s main regional carriers from Los Angeles, with routes including to Houston, Phoenix, San Antonio, San Jose and Salt Lake City. It flies Bombardier CRJ900 aircraft.
Putting the E-175s in Los Angeles will allow American to compete strongly with Delta Air Lines, which also operates Compass aircraft on important, but thin, routes across the West. As it bids to win lucrative Los Angeles traffic with a strong onboard product, Delta has shifted a number of routes to Compass, including San Francisco, Sacramento, Dallas, Vancouver, Seattle and Austin, Texas. Delta no longer operates single-class regional jets in Los Angeles.
“We did similar things in Miami, shifting Republic there,” Thomas said. “Los Angeles is a market that we know can support that larger, higher-end product.”
Another plus: Compass already operates a base in Los Angeles for Delta, so this would help streamline operations for the regional carrier.
With the exception of Tokyo Haneda, which American hopes to start with a slot now controlled by Delta, American has been quiet about its plans for Los Angeles, but it’s likely these new E-175 aircraft could feed new routes to Asia. American may end up eventually shifting Boeing 787 aircraft to Los Angeles as it seeks to open a transpacific gateway.
American’s Terminal 4 at LAX will soon be connected, inside security, to the airport’s new international terminal, a development that should open new opportunities for the carrier. American is the only US airline with access to four preferential gates at the international terminal, and it plans to take more advantage of that when the airport finishes building the connector building. Construction of that building is now underway. | aerospace |

The restrictor fitting has a VERY tiny orifice drilled into it which accomplishes the same task as the restrictor inside the Van’s VA-216 fuel return hose. So the order of assembly is to first install the restrictor fitting with the TINY hole onto the existing fuel return fitting on the firewall shelf, then attach the fuel return hose (#5 in the second photo of the previous post) that comes from the aft fitting on the fuel marshal. In order to photograph the hole in the restrictor so the viewer can see the hole more clearly, the restrictor was taped onto a flashlight with red tape so light could be photographed coming through the hole.
The restrictor fitting was placed on the fuel return fitting on the firewall shelf and torqued to specs then the Teflon fuel return line was installed onto the restrictor fitting and connected to the aft port on the fuel marshal.
The Fuel the return hose (#5 in the second photo of the previous post) is attached onto the Aircraft Specialty provided fuel return restrictor fitting which is attached onto the fuel return fitting on the firewall shelf.
Connecting the fuel return line (#5 in the second photo of the previous post) onto the aft port on the fuel marshal. The other end of this hose runs to the fuel return fitting on the firewall shelf as seen in the previous photo.
The last remaining hose in the Aircraft Specialty fuel line kit connects to the last remaining port on the fuel marshal … this hose goes to the Kavlico fuel pressure sending unit on the firewall. The fuel pressure sending unit was prepared by installing a 90 degree fitting on the sending unit and mounting it onto a rubber grommet after the hole in the grommet was made larger per the plans.
The fuel pressure sender hose (#4 in the second photo of the previous post) connects between the remaining port on the fuel marshal and the Kavlico fuel pressure sending unit mounted on the firewall.
The remainder of the work session involved torqueing the fuel fittings, reviewing the wiring changes being made and making preparations to move the oil pressure sending unit from the engine to the firewall alongside the fuel pressure sending unit. Fittings needed to be installed and measurements taken for a custom oil line that Aircraft Specialty will be making for the DOG Aviation RV-12. Will post photos later once the hose is installed. | aerospace |

Wozniak tweeted a YouTube video explaining the vision of Privateer Space. The video begins with a strong message—"Together, we will go far."
The voice-over said, "We'll look out for one another. Solve problems together. It isn't a race, it isn't a competition or a game. We are not one person, one company, one nation. We're one planet. We're explorers. We're dreamers, risk-takers, engineers, stargazers. We are human and it's up to us to do what is right and what is good. So here's to taking care of what we have so that the next generation can be better, together.”
The Privateer Space website only has the following information: “The sky is no longer the limit” and "We are in stealth mode." It also says the company will be at the Advanced Maui Optical and Space Surveillance Technologies conference in Hawaii that begins today, 14th September. Additional details about the company have not been made available yet.
Recently, the race to grow and promote space tourism has heated up and Virgin Galactic did just that when its founder Richard Branson himself took a flight to outer space in July.

Gorbachev Kuzbass State Technical University has organized a discussion on the development of the industrial complex of the region using modern adapted space technologies.
The speakers included Alexei Yakovlev, Rector of KuzSTU, Denis Malygin, General Director of LLC "Laboratory for designing Astromikon ultra-small spacecraft" (St. Petersburg), Alexander Chernyavsky, Advisor to the General Director of PJSC "RKK Energia named after S.P. Korolev”.
The participants of the event discussed possible areas of scientific research aimed at solving urgent problems faced by industrial enterprises on the basis of developments that are successfully used in the national space industry.
For example, scientists from KuzSTU together with colleagues from the Kemerovo branch of the Federal Research Center for Information and Computing Technologies of the Russian Academy of Sciences, spoke about the possibility of using aerospace data to develop mining and graphic documentation.
According to experts, high-precision data obtained from space will reduce the working hours required for the analysis of mining and geological objects. At the same time, the system for data storing and accumulating will become much more convenient, while the user will receive advanced opportunities for analyzing summary information and making objectively accurate decisions.
Aleksey Yakovlev highlighted that the license of the Roscosmos State Corporation obtained by the university “will allow us to work hard on the development of devices and technologies that are necessary for both Roscosmos and the region.”
One of the important space projects, which the Kuzbass Polytechnic University will start implementing in the near future, concerns the evaluation of the service life of the docking module:
The docking module is experiencing quite serious loads. In KuzSTU, we will create its “double”, but first we will carry out ground tests on a simplified design, - said Alexey Nikolayevich.
Alexander Chernyavsky emphasized that this space experiment - "Investigation of the response of the ISS RS module and validation of its multilevel dynamic model under impacts in operating conditions", the lead executor of which is KuzSTU, is “a world-class work.”
Of great interest were the reports of the round table - "Method of driving an inclined adit for opening up lava tubes on the Moon and Mars", "Application of data obtained from spacecrafts for the development of mining and graphic documentation", "Use of space technologies in educational and scientific activities of KuzSTU", and other.
Let us remind that on April 12, KuzSTU hosted a presentation of the Kuzbass-300 nanosatellite. The device was created by university scientists in cooperation with specialists from the state corporation Roscosmos. It is planned to launch the first spacecraft in the history of the region in the summer of 2022. The event was attended by Governor Sergei Tsivilev.
Also, on this day, the opening of the Mission Control Center (MCC) took place. From here, communication with the Kuzbass-300 satellite will be carried out. The Center staff will be able to receive images from this and other small satellites and transmit various commands to them. | aerospace |

So there was much excitement when the couple were joined by the entire brood for a surprise outing to the Royal International Air Tattoo on Friday 14 July.
After the engagement, Kensington Palace released an announcement reading: ‘The Air Tattoo is the world’s largest military air show, featuring over 250 aircraft from 25 nations and attracting over 200,00 spectators over the weekend. The event is staged in support of the RAF Charitable Trust, which aims to support the RAF and encourage interest in the aviation industry among young people.’
The event was a chance for George, Charlotte and Louis to enjoy a summer holiday day out with their parents, who remained undaunted by the less than balmy weather. Prince George previously visited the event as a toddler in July 2016, shortly before his 3rd birthday, when he was photographed wearing ear defenders in an RAF Red Arrows Hawk jet.
The family looked picture-perfect in a coordinating colour palette, all wearing accents of blue and navy. Kate wrapped up against the inclement weather in a BLAZÉ Milano striped blazer, adding a dose of glamour with Sézane gold hoop earrings and a favourite necklace by Daniella Draper. Charlotte also donned stripes, wearing a pretty dress with a Peter Pan collar.
Kensington Palace added: ‘The Prince and Princess of Wales have a strong relationship with the RAF, with The Prince having served with the Search and Rescue Force for over three years, based at RAF Valley in Anglesey. The Prince is Honorary Air Commodore of RAF Coningsby and The Princess is Honorary Air Commodore of the Air Cadets.’
During the outing, the family were welcomed by Air Marshal Philip Osborn, Chairman of the RAFCT and Air Chief Marshal Sir Rich Knighton, who is currently serving as Chief of the Air Staff for the Royal Air Force. They also toured a C-17 plane on display as part of the RAF Experience which showcases opportunities available in the RAF. Poignantly, the C-17 transporter was the type of aircraft used to transport Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin ahead of her funeral last September, according to the Telegraph.
Kate also visited the Techno Zone, ‘which aims to inspire young people into exploring science, technology, engineering and maths before going onto careers in engineering, aviation and aerospace.’ The princess met with Cadets and winners of the Road to RIAT national schools competition: ‘a year-long programme involving 300 schools from across the UK who were challenged to design a sustainable aircraft of the future for the RAF.’
The family also watched some of an air display, and George was even allowed to operate an aircraft ramp ramp by pressing a button.
As children of the future king and queen, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are familiar faces at key royal events or special outings with their parents. From appearing on the Buckingham Palace balcony during the coronation, to taking part in a photocall to kick off the academic year at a new school, the Waleses are known for their charming displays of character and warm mutual affection. | aerospace |
