AHG supplies a wide range of industrial gases and gas solutions to transportation industries that range from aviation to automotive to shipbuilding.
AHG offers our products, services, and technical expertise to improve quality, reduce costs, and increase the efficiency of the automotive industry. With the increasing challenges in safety, fuel efficiency, and reliability, now more than ever, competitiveness is at an all-time high. And we at AHG understand this and can help give your operation the edge it needs to succeed.
When aircrafts reach high altitudes, the pilots will require oxygen to avoid the effects of hypoxia. Therefore, both pressurized and non-pressurized aircraft will always require an oxygen supply to rely on. Non-pressurized aircraft will only require the use of their oxygen supply when climbing over a certain altitude, while pressurized aircraft will require the oxygen system only when there is an issue with their pressurization system.
AHG is a Saudi Arabian General Authority for Civil Aviation (GACA) approved station for the filling and maintenance of aviation-grade Oxygen and their respective cylinders. AHG’s repair facility is also authorized by the United States Department of Transportation (DOT) for inspection, testing, Hydrostatic testing, and commissioning of aviation cylinders.
Hydrogen Fuel Cells
Hydrogen fuel cell technology turns hydrogen into electricity in a non-polluting, quieter, and more efficient process than gasoline and diesel engines. Because hydrogen is abundant, efficient, can be produced from renewable sources, and does not produce any emissions, it is constantly referred to as the fuel of the future. Significant advances have been made in the use of multiple hydrogen applications. Fuel cell technology has advanced to a point where hydrogen can become a cost-effective alternative to fossil fuels.
AHG believes in a hydrogen-fueled future. This is why AHG is currently supplying and supporting the first and only Hydrogen Fueling station in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, with the belief that this is only the beginning.

Here is a remnant of history back to the early days of aviation and radio. This image is from Gunnison Colorado.
Back in the early days of commercial and military aviation, flying your airplane and not crashing was a lot more tricky. The workhorses were the Ford Trimotor and DC3. There was no GPS, no weather satellites, no ILS, no radar. Navigation was only possible during daylight hours. Typically the flight path followed roads or railroads or rivers that could be seen from the air and matched to navigation charts. But if there are clouds or storms or strong winds, following landmarks using only “dead reckoning” (flying using a compass and air speed) may not work.
AM radio signals are inherently directional. If the ferrous (iron) core of the receiver is rotated, it is strongest when perpendicular to the radio waves (or creates a null with a two piece antenna that cancels out the other half.. That means by pointing the antenna, you can know exactly which direction that radio tower is. If you have a second radio signal, you can triangulate to find your exact location.
This was useful enough that some important AM stations were used in the airplanes. The simplest and shortest way to fly to an airport was to tune to a radio station and just fly straight toward the signal. These planes were not pressurized and planes were so rare that midair collisions were unlikely. If you were flying to Cincinnati, you tune to WLW-AM and just fly toward the tower. When you get close to the city, the pilot can go to a lower altitude and spot landmarks like the rivers, roads, bridges, tall buildings to find the airport.
Airports are identified by 4 character codes called the ICAO code. The same first letter scheme was used for radio and airports. The international codes for the United States begin in K (W is not used in the US). It was common in small towns west of the Mississippi River to use the same code for the airport and the town’s radio station and the code made visible at the radio tower in the event a pilot was lost.
Navigation was all the more critical around mountains. The Ford trimotor could not fly above 18,500 feet, so getting lost could be fatal. The Gunnison airport is around 7500 feet, where propellor planes start having lift issues from the thinner atmosphere.
The really faded KGUC on the transmitter building is the ICAO code for the Gunnison Airport, and was the Call Sign of the radio station. The current airport was built on the former rail yard of the Rio Grande railroad and taken over by the County in 1975. While I don’t see any evidence the airport or radio station went back to the 1920s, it became a custom when AM call signs were issued.

An aircraft appraisal is similar to any other collateral appraisal process. Appraisals are a good way to protect you, as well as the lender, from overpaying for your collateral. If you’ve ever bought a house, you likely had the house appraised before formally completing the buying process.
For aircraft, the idea is the same. Purchasing an aircraft can be costly, with even a small plane purchase running upwards of a quarter of a million dollars. When spending such an amount, you want to be sure your aircraft is valued properly.
Determining the value of a plane is important for a number of reasons, but what exactly goes into aircraft appraisals? In this article, we’ll explore all the need-to-know about appraisals. Let’s take off with…
What Do Aircraft Appraisals Entail?
Appraisals are typically completed by a certified aircraft appraiser. The appraiser is looking for a number of things during an appraisal such as:
- Interior and exterior plane condition
- Installed avionics
- Equipment upgrades
- Flight hours and landings
- Age of aircraft
The purpose of an aircraft appraisal report is to provide a number of confirmations to both the lender and the buyer of the plane. The appraisal is a way to obtain a professional, impartial opinion on the current market value of an aircraft. It also verifies any prior damage claims and maintenance history.
When it comes to aircraft appraisal cost, the price will vary depending on the time it takes to complete the report, as well as what level of appraisal is being completed.
When it comes to the appraisal itself, there are three types of appraisals available:
- Desktop appraisal
- Physical or on-site appraisal
- Pricing digest
The most in-depth option is the physical appraisal route. This is where the appraiser will be able to get on-site to inspect the airplane itself. A benefit to having an on-site appraisal completed is the speed with which you can buy or sell. An updated appraisal will signal to buyers, sellers, and financial institutions alike that the value claim of an aircraft has been professionally verified.
Aircraft appraisal services like those offered by the appraisers with vref.com are able to properly determine the current market value of an aircraft through combined expertise of all three levels.
What to Avoid
When it comes to getting your aircraft appraised, the last thing you want is an improper valuation. When looking to make an aircraft appraisal appointment, it is smart to avoid organizations that are not accredited or recognized. To avoid receiving an unreliable or improper appraisal, be sure to look for the following:
- Membership and certification requirements of the business or individual
- The industry standards and ethics are recognized and adhered to
- Confirm what professional training an appraiser has gone through
- Which databases and publications the business utilizes
A Smooth Landing
Proper aircraft appraisals are the first step toward making sure an aircraft transaction goes smoothly. The accompanying detailed reports will also ensure a safe takeoff and landing for years to come!

Emerging Technologies in Design and Planning. Rise of the Drones:
These unmanned flying robots—some as large as jumbo jets, others as small as birds—do things straight out of science fiction. Much of what it takes to get these robotic airplanes to fly, sense, and kill has remained secret. But now, with rare access to drone engineers and those who fly them for the U.
From cameras that can capture every detail of an entire city at a glance to swarming robots that can make decisions on their own to giant air frames that Rise of drones stay aloft for days on end, drones are changing our relationship to war, surveillance, and each other.
And it's just the beginning.
Discover the cutting edge technologies that are propelling us toward a new chapter in aviation history as NOVA gets ready for "Rise of the Drones. Will drones soon replace even the most sophisticated manned planes and become a part of our everyday lives? It started out as a toy for my dogs to chase.
The worry is that we will have 30, drones crisscrossing the sky, accumulating all this information. They generate opposition, both overseas and at home. I speak out on behalf of the rule of law. This is the ultimate melding of man and machine. The best fighter pilots that I've seen are the ones that can make a quick decision when things are happening very quickly.
But a revolution is underway, as manned planes are replaced by drones. Oh, god, it's the machines. They are starting to take over. Drones are aerial robots that carry visual sensors, navigation systems,… Sound up: They come in all shapes and sizes and go by a variety of names.
The United States Air Force uses the term "remotely piloted aircraft. Already, the Pentagon relies on a family of more than 10, drones, usually to spy, but sometimes to kill.
Small enough to fit in a soldier's backpack, the three-foot-long Raven is the most widely used spy drone in the world. The stealthy sentinel provided crucial intelligence in the raid to kill bin Laden. The killer Predator has flown thousands of missions sinceand the giant Global Hawk, can stay aloft and spy for up to 35 hours.
The military uses drones to support troops on the ground; the C. The government claims drones have helped to eliminate 70 percent of Al Qaeda's top leadership. They have been so effective, the air force predicts nearly a third of its attack and fighter planes will be drones, within a decade.
Planes can fly longer, they can pull more Gs, they can be more precise when they bomb, if a human is not in the cockpit. We're entering a new era, when the supremacy of even the most advanced planes is being challenged, as engineers take the pilot out of the cockpit.
For security reasons we've been asked to cover our last names to prevent us from potentially becoming a target, of any kind.Read on to get the most recent trends and statistics from drone data captured on , job sites in countries.
We recently published our Commercial Drone Industry Trends Report, which covers the spectacular rise of drones across industries. Many of the drones we carry are equipped with GPS technology and are very stable making them ideal for aerial photography. We carry all the hottest brands such as Yuneec, Blade, Xiro, Traxxas, Walkera, DJI, Heli-Max and many more.

The theme of Chanel’s Fall 2017 show was outer space, and, true to form, attendees were greeted by a giant rocket (with blast-off capability! Batteries not included) positioned right in the middle of the Grand Palais.
Looking far beyond earth, Lagerfeld scattered shimmering embroidery like space dust, with models’ galaxy-like, glitter toe-capped boots receiving lots of love on social media. Straight and squared silhouettes emphasised the space uniform focus of the show, as did several looks featuring built-up, almost protective collars. Jewelled bands across evening dresses obliquely referenced Saturn’s rings, while on the less subtle side of things, eclipse and astronaut prints covered the collection’s knits and airy dresses. While the first commercial flight into space may be a long wait away, Chanel’s extra-terrestrial fantasy will more than suffice for now.


Three dynamic women who have staked out successful careers in the aviation industry will inspire your female students to explore new career pathways.
Female role models help get this career on the radar of women and girls because they’re able to see someone who looks like them on the job. The video reveals the personal experiences and insights of successful women working in this field.
Aviation and related industries employ millions of people. Increasing numbers of women are establishing rewarding careers in the traditionally male-dominated aviation field.
Career Options for Women -- Aviation:
This 24-minute video features profiles of three women with successful careers in aviation:
- Captain Tanya Sprathoff, pilot and crew commander of an Aurora CP-140
- Isabelle Marsan, an aircraft mechanic who maintains and repairs internal systems on airliners
- Dawn Patterson, a bartender-turned-aircraft structures mechanic responsible for aircraft inspection and repair
Additional information from co-workers and supervisors supplements each job profile.
Meet the role models featured in the Aviation video:
Tanya: Pilot and Crew Commander
“I turned 18 at an air cadet boot camp. The next day, I went to the recruiting center and told them what my dream was.” Tanya flies one of Canada's Maritime patrol aircraft, which is an Aurora CP-140. She is a crew commander, and leads a team of 13 personnel. Her missions involve antisubmarine warfare, patrolling and enforcing Canada's 200-mile fishing limit, surface surveillance and monitoring of Maritime shipping traffic, and watching over the Arctic for sovereignty control. She also participates in search and rescue operations.
It's a life that she enjoys. It brings together her love of flying, and other challenges such as the strategic thinking required in anti-submarine warfare. In addition, she appreciates working with a high-caliber, professional crew of people.
After completing high school, she continued her education at Royal Roads in Victoria, and then went on to the Royal Military College of Canada in Kingston where she earned a bachelor degree in Mechanical Engineering. Although it is unnecessary to have a university degree to be a commercial pilot, she says a degree is required to fly and be an officer in the military.
Tanya finds that the military provides encouragement for people to move ahead, get promoted, and move around. Postings to different national locations and places overseas are possible. Regardless of locale, however, the same standard benefits available to all personnel apply.
Isabelle: Aircraft Mechanic
Isabelle Marsan is the third woman to be hired as an aircraft mechanic at the airline for which she works. She works on all systems of commercial airplanes: flight controls, hydraulic systems, landing gear, engines (exterior only), pressurization systems, security systems, and fuel tanks. Eventually, when she becomes licensed, she will be assigned specific systems to work on and take responsibility for.
Isabelle has also done sheet metal work and finds her job as an aircraft mechanic physically more demanding, since it involves both carrying and installing parts. Isabelle finds her work mentally stimulating because the job requires her to learn every system on the plane.
In terms of advancement within the airline company, an aircraft mechanic can eventually become a foreman, inspector, or accident investigator, to name a few opportunities. The salary for an aircraft mechanic can vary from company to company. Since her company is unionized, Isabelle says that the pay is good there compared to a company that maintains smaller aircrafts. For Isabelle, the field of aviation is very interesting. She feels it presents wonderful new opportunities for women who enjoy mechanics, manual labor and technical knowledge.
Dawn: Aircraft Structures Mechanic
For Dawn Patterson, the best part about being an Aircraft Structures Mechanic is the hands-on work. She looks for corrosion on the planes, does inspections, removes damaged parts and does sheet metal repairs. A lot of her job involves fabricating of parts and riveting. There are many tools required and a variety of aircraft to work on.
Prior to this career, Dawn worked in bars as a server, bartender, and restaurant manager. She did a job shadow as part of a technical school course and found a hidden interest in mechanical work. After completing a 2 year technical school program, she was hired into her current position. “I did a job shadow and was really interested in the aircraft industry. They remembered me two years later when I came back with my resume.”
The benefit to having a license - in addition to higher pay - is that a mechanic can basically work anywhere in the world. One of Dawn's co-workers spends four months working on helicopters internationally in the oil industry.
Run time: 24 minutes total, including three segments of approximately 8 minutes each.

NASA is working on a concept called a Deep Space Gateway, a mini-space station that could be positioned orbit around the moon, to serve as a staging point for future government and commercial landing sorties to the lunar surface.
If approved and funded, the first piece of the deep space station could be launched with EM-2 in 2023.
Bindi Irwin and her mom, Terri Irwin, are setting the record straight about Terri's rumored relationship with family friend and Oscar winner Russell Crowe.
ET caught up with Bindi, her brother, Robert, and her mother at the Steve Irwin Gala dinner in Beverly Hills on Saturday, where they dismissed recent tabloid speculation that Terri had struck up a romance with the Nice Guys star."We were very lucky to have known Russell for a number of years.
Technicians finished welding of EM-1’s liquid hydrogen tank in September, marking the completion of all five pieces of the first core stage.
The next step will be outfitting the pieces with plumbing, wiring, avionics, orange foam for thermal protection, and four RS-25 main engines left over from the space shuttle program.
There is still some hope EM-1 could be ready sooner.
The SLS core stage will use the thickest structures ever assembled using friction stir welding, a process that uses heat from friction to forge materials together without melting them.
The Boeing contractor team in charge of the SLS core stage manufactured several test articles before pressing on with welding of tanks destined to fly on EM-1.
Those figures are on top of expenditures made by NASA on the Orion capsule, ground equipment and heavy-lift launcher concepts during the Constellation moon program, an initiative dating back to the George W.
Bush administration that was canceled by President Obama in 2010 after cost overruns.

Uber, the global company, has announced its intention to launch a new Transprt service, which may seem an expensive way to avoid traffic in the city, but for those looking for the fastest route they are the best.
The company confirmed that it is preparing to provide helicopter transport services from John F. Kennedy Airport to central Manhattan through the "Uber Copter" service and is preparing to launch its first flights within weeks, according to the British Daily Mail.
The flights, which last about 8 minutes, will begin on July 9 with a cost of between $ 200 and $ 225 per person, including land transportation in the city and the airport.
Ober said the Copter service would take passengers between John F. Kennedy Airport in New York and Manhattan Airport.
Reports of Ober's ambitions to overtake city streets have been confirmed by coordinated airlift efforts through his new Uber Elevate team.
The new flights help Ober to collect data to provide a wide range of air transport in the coming years, company officials said.
Ober promotes this as an "easy" solution that includes all the means of transportation that can be booked on its smartphone application.
Uber has already announced air transport plans by 2023 between suburbs and cities, possibly within cities in the United States and other countries, and working with partners to develop "plane cars" or small electric aircraft with takeoff and landing capacity.

Often business owners start out with an idea that quickly turns into sales. But then something like Covid-19 hits and the way you have been doing business doesn’t work anymore. Knowing how to pivot using new strategies or sometimes just starting over can be hard for anyone.
When you think about drones, what is the first thing that comes to mind? Most of the time when we consider a drone, we think about the plane-like crafts observed in the park on a sunny Saturday afternoon flying alongside the vibrant kites. But S2S brings a whole new twist to what a drone can be used for.
Meet Cedric, a drone expert and founder of S2S who help business owners qualify for new contract opportunities.
Cedric was first licensed by the FAA as a drone pilot in 2016. Playing with drones and gardening were Cedric’s favorite hobbies. In 2019, after many months of planning and researching, Cedric formed Soaring to Success, Inc., a 501 (c) 3 non-profit.
About the time that S2S was starting its initial drone training program in schools, Covid-19 hit. Because of social distancing requirements, parts of the program were re-vamped to be offered online. The in-flight training component, however, was in person and was therefore put on hold. As of the date of this blog, FAA is currently not issuing any new licenses which is another snafu, delaying the licensing benefit after completing the drone training.
Due to these challenges and others, S2S pivoted by offering drone consulting to businesses so that they could qualify for drone work as specified in government contracts
S2S educates businesses working with government agencies to understand the benefit of using drones in their everyday workflow. Sometimes this means knowing how to assess potential damage of property from the sky without putting workers at risk. Other times this means using drone data collection to evaluate soil conditions and identify ways to control pests so that crops are of better quality and harvesting costs are reduced. Often drone technology is used for project inspections to reduce costs and improve worker safety.
For anyone interested in learning more about business drone usage, please feel free to reach out to Cedric Divine at www.soaring2success.org for more information.

Hi. My name is Robert (Bob) Gannon. Welcome to my website detailing my world flying adventure.
I am not a commercial pilot, just a general aviation pilot who flies for fun and adventure.
In 1992 I wanted to do an adventure. Not able to acquire sea legs I took up flying. Within 3 months of my first lesson I had an instrument rating and had bought a 1974 Cherokee 6 I named Lucky Lady. Two days after passing my instrument check ride I took off from San Diego, California headed east to attempt to fly to Paris, France to attend a Harvard Business Class reunion. 70 airports and 20 countries later I crashed in Kenya. Route and Log 1st Attempt chronicles that adventure.
For 8 years I talked about finishing that around the world trip. In 2000 I purchased a 1968 Cessna 182 that I named Lucky Lady Too out of respect for the first gal I wrecked. This time I headed west. Route and Log 2nd attempt chronicles that adventure up to the present date.
Hopefully, this site will aid other pilots and adventurers alike with places to go and things to do. And possibly it will encourage you to get at your own adventure. Life is a short flight. If you can do it, do it now!

Defense, security and civil aviation are represented by the European aerospace sector.
Currency trading is a crucial revenue stream for many industrial countries around the world. And aerospace sector is the one to be blamed for this. While it provides a lot of security programs, it also provides sustainable mobility. Every world war has aerospace as the primary battle front. Exactly the same sector has been a major facilitator for transport whether for business or leisure.
Defense, security and civil aviation are represented by the European aerospace sector. Civil aviation mainly ensures minimal negative environmental impacts while simultaneously facilitating highest mobility. The most important goal of Europe’s aerospace is citizen security. Protection from all types and sorts of attacks.In order to make sure the country’s borders are protected from external attacks, government entities is funding this industry.
Among the fastest growing sectors in the world is the aerospace sector. For example, Poland has quite a lot of airports with the Poland International airport getting the best reviews.With the many small sized airports, mobility within Poland has been quite easy and quick. With the many airports in Warsaw, the region is fully covered regarding mobility. Furthermore, it has a number of small airlines that cater or the protection of the borders. Best reviews is exactly what airport at Warsaw has also.
The study showed that it is crucial to stay competitive in the aerospace market. What each and every government should have as a top priority is the progress of the technology. This not simply ensures that the aerospace remains in line with technological innovation but also ensures maximum efficiency.
Making an investment in the aerospace industry is the best move for all investors. As this industry is constantly developing it should be brought to attention of investors. These ongoing improvements cause competitive stock markets. The ultimate outcomes of the activity in this industry is higher profits. (my source)

DJI Air Sense Technology – Air Sense is a DJI technology innovation that recognizes closely monitored aeroplanes, such as planes and helicopters, and tells the robot pilot. All DJI drone models delivered after 2020 consolidate the Air Sense innovation, except the DJI, Scaled down 2.
Flying robots implies a specific measure of hazard, so guaranteeing your security and that of everyone around you is a high need. Having your robot in the skies can be energizing, and once in a while, you, Be that as it may, it accompanies the gamble of low or decreased situational mindfulness. It happens when doing and neglect to focus on what’s happening and environmental factors where the robot is flying. It can be among the critical reasons for drone mishaps. It can be devastating if other aeroplanes fly close to you and you’re not focusing on them.
In this definite article, I will examine which DJI drones have Air Sense, what it is, and how it works. Additionally, we will feature how Air Sense helps pilots and what to do, assuming you get an Air Sense alert, among other related themes. Be that as it may, priorities straight, how about we go over what precisely Air Sense is?
Table of Contents
What is Air Sense?
Air Sense, a restrictive innovation created by DJI, is a ready framework that integrates Promotions (programmed subordinate observation) creation to give drone pilots itemized situational mindfulness, explicitly, with the area of others close by monitored and automated aeroplanes.
Advertisement B transmitters send information from an adjacent aeroplane. The Air Sense framework gathers this information and promptly advises the client through their DJI client application or flight regulator. The robot pilot can then make the vital move to avoid a potential impact.
DJI has integrated this innovation into many of their robots, and it’s an extraordinary well-being element to search for in your next drone.
How does Air Sense work?
Air Sense innovation is standard on the fresher DJI drone models with 250 grams or more load. It was sent off in 2020 and has called for most DJI drones. The Air Sense framework relies upon signs and satellite data sent from close by helicopters and planes. This information transmission finish through the Programmed Subordinate Reconnaissance Broadcast (Promotions B), a signed ID framework.
The Air Sense sensors on DJI drones screen the signs from adjacent aeroplane traffic, guaranteeing you know just what aeroplanes are working in your space with the goal that you should rest assured to stay away from them. Through the DJI 4 application, the robot client advises that at whatever point there is a plane close to the robot, you can play it safe to keep away from the close by aeroplane.
How does DJI Air Sense help drone pilots?
The DJI Air Sense innovation has been an extraordinary well-being highlight added to DJI robots to assist with rambling pilots in various ways. Here are some of the advantages that robot pilots can acquire from Air Sense.
Improvement of drone features
Adding another innovation, for example, Air Sense assists the robot with working all the more effectively concerning its different highlights. The Advertisements B innovation offers further developed usefulness to DJI highlights, including Return to Home, Geo-fencing, Elevation cutoff, and hindrance aversion, among others. Moreover, the innovation guarantees the robot’s mechanized elements consider what’s going on in the air and what move to make.
Better safety outcomes
With the joining of Air Sense, well-being in the air has arrived at another level. It is because the robot pilots are made mindful of any dangers, which assists them with returning their robots home for well-being, hence forestalling mishaps like aeroplane crashes. Moreover, it’s not generally about the robots; with Air Sense, the security of monitored aeroplane administrators and travellers got to the next level.
Prevention of loss
The prospect of a robot crash is something each robot pilot fears. Unfortunately, these gadgets are not modest and purchasing another without having anticipated it tends to disappoint. With so many robots zooming around, there can be a critical gamble on a robot’s impact.
In any case, the DJI engineers emerged with Air Sense brilliantly. Air sense has worked on the well-being of robots, hence decreasing the gamble of the robot annihilating in crashes. It gives DJI drone pilots genuine serenity realizing that their gadgets are more averse to impacts and subsequently should supplant.
Which DJI drones have Air Sense?
Most DJI drones without Air Sense are either more established models or ones with a load of under 250 grams. Nevertheless, here is a rundown of the DJI drones that genuinely have Air Sense, and those that don’t.

Is it good for you to purchase a Mavic Air 2 without Air Sense?
Air Sense innovation has applied to all DJI drones produced for a commodity in the USA, and consequently, rambling fliers in those regions are notable. However, here comes our inquiry. On the other hand, do you have a choice to purchase a Mavic Air 2 external in the US without Air Sense savvy? While having a Mavic Air 2 with Air Sense is brilliant, it is probably not a joking matter on the off chance that it doesn’t have the innovation, and here are the justifications for why.
It indicates by the nature and plan of Mavic Air 2 that it intends to utilize for sporting and content creation exercises. You designed for clients who need the best scene photographs or film. What’s more, for practically every one of the administrators of this robot, you should notice drone flying regulations in your district. In any case, one of the most powerful beings, you should not fly over 400 feet.
The 400 feet is essential because the aeroplane should fly around 500 feet over the ground level. In addition, it forestalls intimate experiences among drones and monitored aeroplanes, so assuming you’re flying underneath the level of monitored airplane activities in any case, it ought not be that vital to have Air Sense letting you know where the aeroplanes are.
You shouldn’t require Air Sense innovation for your Mavic Air 2 robot since you comply with the robot regulations.
Airsense technology doesn’t prevent drone-to-drone collision
It is another motivation behind why Air Sense is undoubtedly not a sink or swim thing. The innovation will alarm you regarding the presence of monitored aeroplanes, but not different robots, as it restricts its capacity to forestall robots to ramble impacts.
This innovation sends data from aeroplanes to drones. This way, it isn’t helpful between two robots since none will convey a message to the next. Also, the innovation isn’t made accessible to all robot models.
So the Air Sense innovation is restricted to assist with forestalling crashes between Mavic Air 2 robots and monitored aeroplanes while flying at low heights. An ideal choice to forestall impacts with different robots is to rely upon the other security highlights of Mavic Air 2, like snag evasion.
Why in DJI Air Sense Technology in the USA?
There is a justification for why the DJI Mavic 2 with Air Sense innovation is accessible in the USA. The DJI producers restrict extending the invention to different areas due to the Covid pandemic. Therefore, it was not purposeful for other regions to forget about, and they pointed toward having all markets fulfilled.
The other explanation is that the US has the most impressive number of human-manned aeroplanes that can fly under 400 feet. It isn’t true in Europe, where the quantity of monitored planes is less. Furthermore, there is a critical interest in watching aeroplanes in the US, particularly in rural areas. It is on the grounds that the ranches are enormous and overseen by routine human work. So it makes sense why Air Sense innovation is fundamental for the US market, where the gamble of impact among drones and automated aeroplanes is higher.
Regardless of whether a Mavic Air 2 has DJI Air Sense Technology, it is one of the most outstanding robots from DJI you can put resources. It is because it flaunts a few well-being highlights, including all-bearing deterrent detecting, Geo-fencing, and the High-level Pilot Help Framework. The mix of this large number of elements makes the robot protected and stable, contributing to the client’s genuine serenity.

After careful review of State laws, FAA laws, State Park rules and regulations, talking to some local hobbyists who were flying their planes at the fairgrounds AND checking to ensure there was no one around, we decided to take our dear little Arci-1 out for a flight. Yes, boys will be boys, and boys need toys! Now, if only I could be allowed to fly it!!!
A beautiful day for a flight.

Charcoal filter masks. Safety glasses with tight gasket seals. Hell, I had even suggested custom fit hazmat suits with triple air filtration, but no. They would have none of it. You can’t mess around with things you don’t understand!
And now this.
Logging Lunar Lumber
It all began innocently enough – Alex Snodgrass asking if I wanted to be part of a team on a top-secret mission. After he told me everyone involved, I was sure I wanted in. Each of us had the necessary experience, specialized skills that would contribute to the success of the mission.
On March 25th, 2019, we gathered in Christiansburg, Virginia, at the workshop of Alex Snodgrass, bandsaw expert, and Moon Tree Logging Team leader.
So, that’s what we’re calling ourselves now; The Moon Tree Logging Team. Fitting, if not wholly appropriate.
The remaining members of the team – Scott “Shuttleman” Phillips, the to whom NASA gave the remaining section of the Kennedy Space Center Moon Tree. Ron Heman, the wayward dendrologist (often strays from this to build something). Jim Heavey, occasional woodworking journalist (see Ron Herman note, apply to Jim). And yours truly, Chuck Bender, cabinetmaker and sometimes woodworking videographer (see Ron Herman note, reverse it and apply as needed until rash disappears). A motley crew of woodworking misfits tasked with a seemingly impossible task – saw the remaining log from the Kennedy Space Center Moon Tree into useable lumber.
A portion of the material produced was given to Rosemary Roosa, daughter of Stuart Roosa, the Apollo 14 astronaut responsible for taking 500 tree seeds into lunar orbit. The slab has been laser engraved and is now a memorial to her father, which Rosemary has generously put on display at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.
Another portion of the material was to Martin Guitar, to create a unique instrument commemorating the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. The guitar became the center of a contest for singer/songwriters across the nation to come up with an original song to be performed on the Moon Tree guitar.
Moon Tree Logging Team – The Video
The video below documents precisely what took place that fateful day in March of 2019. What is not shown is the bond that developed on that day between the members of the team. Five men inexorably bound by a profound historical experience. From the entire Moon Tree Logging Team, we sincerely hope you enjoy the journey as much as we did.
My only concern is, since participating in this adventure, I’ve been feeling a bit like Kane.


Finally! After months and months of not being allowed to travel back to Germany we were set to visit our family and friends again. Can you imagine how excited I was? As we arrived at the airport and went through the security we were waiting at the gate for boarding.
The plane came in late from Amsterdam and so the crew did not check the checklist as clearly as they should have. After we boarded and were almost ready to leave the gate and taxi towards the runway, our crew discovered a slightly broken seal at a door. So we had to leave the plane again – together with all our hand luggage – that the mechanics were able to pressurize the cabin to test the seal. OMG! For a moment I was angry and disappointed. Why haven’t the mechanics checked the plane properly before boarding to proceed? We were not sure if we were able to leave at all.
When I spotted the pilot, my mood changed. In fact I prepared for an interview at home in case I get a chance to ask a pilot a few questions. And here he was. He also had to leave his cockpit for the test. I took my chance and simply asked him if he would be available for a brief interview and he agreed promptly. It actually went very well and he even invited me to have a look at his cockpit at the end. This was great! 2 decades later – ehm I mean 2 hours actually we were allowed back into the cabin (home sweet home) and enjoyed the rest of the flight. So here is what the pilot had to say:
What’s your Name?
When did you start to be a commercial pilot?
1980 – well before you were born.
Do you fly long-haul or short-haul flights more often and which one do you like better?
I usually fly long-haul. Long-haul works best for me: as pilot you are only paid for the time you actually fly, waiting or transit times do not count as work. When flying long distance you accumulate hours faster.
Do you enjoy your job and why if so?
I love my job. I have been flying long haul internationally for the past years. Whilst I have been away for some days in a row, it has been allowing me to spend a few days at home between the flights. This enabled me to see my children grow up, visit their sports games and so on. In addition I was able to visit many beautiful cities throughout the world.
Did you ever work for another airline?
Yes, I worked for other airlines, especially when I was flying cargo machines in my early years of the carrier.
What is your favorite plane?
The Boeing 787 we fly today is wonderful, the most beautiful one was in my view the Boeing 757.
Do you also fly cargo planes?
Not anymore, but I used to fly a McDonnell Douglas DC10 cargo plane many years ago.
What is your favorite Airport?
Chicago O’Hare. I believe they have the best air control in the world.
Do you prefer flying in the night or in the day?
I like to fly in the day – you often have a great view from the cockpit.
Do you have a tip on how to become a pilot? It’s my dream job!
Start early right after college and look for a registered flight school. Pilots are required to proof many hours experience before they are allowed to fly commercial planes. By attending the right school, this requirement may be reduced so it is faster to become a ‘real’ pilot.
Of course I accepted the invitation and visited the cockpit. I was even allowed to sit in the pilot’s seat and ask more questions to the co-pilot. The co-pilot however did not know, the total number of switches and buttons there are in the cockpit (how can you not know this???), but he knew the function of each one I asked.
After a bumpy but still great flight we finally touched down in Frankfurt. Let the holidays begin!

For release: 09 Feb 2012
Mercury Computer Systems Announces Industry's Highest Performing Power Architecture-based OpenVPX Module
Rugged 24-core/48-thread Freescale QorIO AMP T4240-based OpenVPX building block with AltiVec technology increases per-slot performance sixfold over previous generation designs
CHELMSFORD, Mass.--Mercury Computer Systems, Inc., a trusted provider of commercially developed application-ready ISR and EW subsystems for defense prime contractors, announced the Ensemble® Series 6U OpenVPX HCD6210 rugged compute blade based on the Freescale® T4240 QorIQ AMP Power Architecture®. Utilizing two of the new Freescale T4240 QorIQ AMP processors, the HCD6210 blade has a total of 24 cores/48 threads, each core with an AltiVec® single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) engine for high-performance signal processing support. Systems based on the HCD6210 can scale from 1 to 16 boards, enabling new levels of subsystem performance in radar, EO/IR and EW applications.
"With its well-balanced computational performance and IO capability, the performance is equally impressive for small, single-slot OpenVPX systems as it is for the large, scaled-up multi-board systems for which Mercury is known."
For the past decade, Mercury has delivered Power Architecture/AltiVec-based products combined with the industry's highest performing scientific algorithm libraries (SAL) for applications such as medical imaging, seismic analysis, airborne radar and defense applications. Because the HCD6210 runs SAL-based software unchanged, a significant amount of the customer's software investment is preserved. Additionally, with a sixfold increase in the number of cores per device, what previously required 4-6 boards now requires only a single 6U OpenVPX slot. With advancements in chip manufacturing technologies, this level of performance can now be delivered in a low-power, industrial-grade processor for applications in harsh, size, weight and power-constrained (SWaP) environments.
"With the enormous budget pressures in the defense industry, more and more prime contractors are looking to upgrade existing systems with minimal change and cost. The HCD6210 compute blade provides a sixfold increase in processing capability while maintaining software library compatibility," said Steve Patterson, Vice President of Product Management at Mercury Computer Systems. "With its well-balanced computational performance and IO capability, the performance is equally impressive for small, single-slot OpenVPX systems as it is for the large, scaled-up multi-board systems for which Mercury is known."
"Freescale has had a long and successful relationship with Mercury. Over the past decade, Mercury has delivered high-performance Power Architecture/AltiVec technology implementations to a variety of embedded applications where size, weight and power (SWaP) were primary drivers," said Glenn Beck, Segment Marketing Manager, Single Board Computing and Aerospace & Defense Markets, Freescale Semiconductor. "Freescale has a track record for highly reliable, industrial-grade processors with best-in-class SWaP and overall low-power dissipation. We are delighted that Mercury is announcing the next generation based on our T4240 12-core, 24-thread Power Architecture-based product."
The HCD6210 blade uses the T4240 System-on-Chip (SoC) capabilities to support a serial RapidIO® data plane, as well as additional sensor I/O via native 10 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. These SoC capabilities facilitate the combining of high-bandwidth, low-latency data movement with industry-standard high-speed sensor I/O on the HCD6210 blade. Additional features include support for a Gen2 PCIe® expansion plane and on-board system management capabilities. A single XMC mezzanine site and a customizable I/O mini-mezzanine allow for a variety of system-level I/O. The HCD6210 is available in air-cooled and conduction-cooled rugged configurations with support for VxWorks®, Linux®, Mercury's SAL and MultiCore Plus® software suite.
The HCD6210 will be available in Q3, 2012.
