Twenty-five Vanderbilt students boarded a fleet of planes, including a Cessna 172 and Tampico, for the first time as pilots. AviaDORES hosted their Discovery Day event for a second time after a strong turnout in February and high interest from the organization fair earlier this semester.
Co-founders Alexa Cordell and Riley Ferguson ran the event at the Nashville Flight Training center at the Nashville International Airport with the hopes of attracting more people to follow in their passion for flying. Both Cordell and Ferguson hold a pilot’s license and have been flying planes for several years.
“We love aviation so much and we want to make it as accessible to everyone,“ sophomore Riley Ferguson said. “We just want to spread the word and activity because we love flying.”
Any student in the club was welcome to come fly, and the club requires no experience to get involved. Trained pilots joined each student in the planes and guided them through the flight, from takeoff to landing, alongside much larger commercial jets. They pointed out all the gizmos in the cockpit, including the navigation system and magnetic compass, as well as a checklist of steps to take pre-flight.
The nearly 30 minute route took the first-time flyers from the airport to downtown Nashville and Vanderbilt before returning back. It provided for breathtaking views at upwards of 2000 feet, as many student-pilots grabbed selfies mid-flight. Some gustiness made for a slightly bumpier ride than usual, but the clear skies made for the perfect conditions, Cordell and Ferguson noted.
In the waiting room inside the airplane hangar, students sat around as they watched their fellow classmates jump into the pilot’s seat for the first time. Everybody appeared eager for their turn to fly.
“I’m a little nervous just because I have no experience or knowledge of how to fly a plane, but I think it’s going to be exciting,” freshman Serena Ainslie said pre-flight.
Before this club was founded last year, there weren’t any opportunities for students to fly through Vanderbilt. But the club’s ability to establish this event, which took some lengthy paperwork, has helped students participate in an activity they had only dreamed up before.
“I had an interest in flying because I have a couple friends who got their pilot’s licenses, but when I came to Vandy, I never thought that would be an opportunity that I would get here,” Ainslie said. “It was definitely a spur of the moment decision to sign up for Discovery Day.”


My oldest grandson Jeremy has had his eyes in the sky for a few months now.
He got his first remote control airplane for his birthday in October.
The expression of sheer joy on his face when he's flying just melts a grandma-ma's heart.
His dad took him out to fly the new plane he got for Christmas.
A local flying enthusiast has taken Jeremy under his wing <no pun intended> and built both of his airplanes for him, which has saved them a lot of money. He also has been a great flying coach for Jeremy and a support to the family as they undertake this new adventure with Jeremy.
He also got a new control radio. Anyway, I think that's what it's called ;-)
Now he can fly both airplanes with one controller. This was the maiden flight for both the new plane and the controller and their "coach" was out of town, we were a little nervous at first.
After doing the pre-flight checks it was time to just jump in and do it.
flying high into the sky.
Ohhhh the joy and concentration.
All eyes are in the sky now.
Jeremy is doing just great. He said it is easier to fly the planes with the new radio controller, or what ever you call it.
He even got the planes to do some loops. Way to go buddy.
Little brother Jarod, a great crew member, retrieves the plane that just landed safely.
This plane is cool as it can land on water also.
Tested the new controller with the other plane; that went great also.
Coming in for a landing.
The only challenge was the sea gulls.
They weren't sure about that different bird in the sky and kept circling around the flying area.
It was a great day for flying for everyone.

It must be taken to note that Gulf-based carriers are increasingly driving the equilibrium of the global aviation industry. Even with the presence of other global and regional aviation giants, three names tend to reappear namely Emirates (EK), Qatar Airways (QR) and Etihad Airways (EY). This report will focus on these larger players in the Gulf region.Despite the relatively recent creation of these three aviation giants, it is increasingly clear that market competition needs to catch up with the undisputed market leader Emirates. The competition provided by Qatar Airways could have led to some positive results but Emirates was able to overtake such competition due to Qatar Airways’ weak slot availability and due to their overlapping networks.In contrast, Etihad Airways began to increase its global outreach in 2011 by buying strategic networks globally. In response to the artificial growth posed by Etihad Airways, Qatar Airways was cornered to take up aviation alliances throughout the globe. Moreover, following the global fiscal meltdown, aviation operators were forced to take onto helping hands. It has become clear that Etihad Airways has taken onto a solid business strategy of approaching ailing airlines in order to rescue them and to control their operations.From the perspective of ATR, it has become clear that Emirates will not be looking to buy or influence the selling of turboprop aircraft since such models do not suit their long haul strategy. The behavior of Qatar Airways is similar too. However, when Etihad Airways is considered, it already holds equity in a number of airlines that are considered to be good consumers of ATR aircraft. ATR needs to look into how it can influence Etihad’s buying decisions especially via its newly acquired aviation operators and their future purchases of aircraft.Over time, the Middle East has assumed a significant portion of the global air traffic.

minute aerobatic displays at fetes and garden parties to some of the largest
He is also very comfortable working as part of a team and has worked alongsinde Brendan O'Brien at Dunsfold for the last seven years and has been part of the team that presents the Jersey International Air Display both live and as a four hour BBC radio show.

- The CAP611, also recognised as the ‘AOC – Operation of Balloons’ document, set out by the CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) states that: ‘once every three years, flight crew are to attend ground courses on the subjects of basic first-aid and fire safety.’
- The CAP611 also emphasizes the importance of a fire and first aid course, stating: ‘good safety management practice indicates that AOC(B) holders’ ground based personnel should undertake three yearly first-aid and fire courses. This will assist an Operator in complying with its duty of care at an unlicensed airfield (launch site) and, in the event of a serious accident whereby it is possible that the pilot may be incapacitated, it is likely that the retrieve crew would be the first to attend the scene.’
- The BS3 Training Fire and First Aid course is tailored to commercial balloon pilots in and around the Bristol area, but is also a great course for all private pilots and crew.
- Our training instructors are all qualified hot air balloon pilots, and are experienced in all aspects of fire safety and first aid. The instructors’ specialist knowledge will help you make confident and correct decisions should you find yourself in an emergency situation.

Solar powered aircraft Solar Impulse-2 took off from Abu Dhabi, heading to Muscat, Oman on March 9th 2015. After flying for 12 hours, Swiss Pilots Andre Borschbeg and Bertrand Piccard landed the aircraft safely in Muscat, Oman at 7:20pm Kuwait time, having taken off at 7:12am Kuwait time. During the flight, the team covered a distance of around 400KM. While many might consider this as a natural progression in the rapidly changing world of highly advanced, solar powered initiatives and pilot projects, we think that this is indeed, a historic feat.
Over the next five months, the pilots will fly the plane from continent to continent, crossing both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. Having prepared themselves using flight simulators, they will stop at various locations along the way to rest and to perform maintenance on the aircraft. They are also utilizing the epic journey to promote a project that they themselves initiated called ‘future is clean’; a campaign to send a message to the world’s governments to use cleaner technologies, and reduce global energy consumption.
Solar power is predicted to become one of the main sources of electricity across the world by 2050. We can already see evidence of the rapid growth of solar power, in countries like the USA, where solar jobs outnumber coal jobs. In the UK, solar experts believe that they can compete with wind-generated energy within 18-20 months, and even gas in the ‘near future.’ Since their initial introduction to domestic use, solar electric panel prices continue to drop as they gain popularity and are expected to continue to reduce in cost.
Of course, there is a dedicated support team behind the two brave pilots. The operation will be carried out from a control room in Monaco, with a team of engineers following the aircraft around the world with them. With such a huge challenge come some tricky and difficult circumstances. During the maiden flight, the team covered a distance of around 400KM, which means that they were traveling at an average of 30-35KM per hour. Because of these slow speeds, some sections of their journey will take several days and nights of constant flying to complete. The two pilots will not be able to sleep properly, and only be allowed to take 20 minute naps to ensure they are both alert enough and at hand to control the aircraft. Besides which, the space that they share during their time in the craft is less than 4 square meters and has just ONE seat (with a built in toilet)…barely enough to sit or stand in one position.
Flying continuously for 2 or 3 days or more at a time, also requires them to fly during the night. On a solar craft, one might wonder, how can that work without sunlight? The enormous 72 meter wings of the plane carry 17,000 solar cells which, as well as power the plane during sunlight hours, charge the aircraft’s lithium-ion batteries that will store energy, and disperse it during the night to sustain travel under darkness. The success of crossing the oceans is largely dependent upon the team being lucky with the right weather. They will need to look at the weather forecasts ahead of time, in order to wait for the perfect conditions and plan these sections of the journey…which means they could be on the ground for days, or weeks, until the ideal window of opportunity comes along. And should they encounter problems with the aircraft while traveling over oceans, they have on board survival gear so that they can eject and wait for help to arrive.
The mission ahead is full of challenges and planning, and heavily relies upon the right circumstances. However, with the sheer amount of passion and dedication that these two pioneers have, not to mention the professionalism and skills of the team behind them, the future looks extremely bright and a huge step forward to ensure a greener world for all of us.
We wish them the very best of luck and look forward to watching the next legs of the tour unfold.

Hexagon on Saturn
Captured by both the Voyager and Cassini space crafts,
an enormous 25,000 km atmospheric feature has been detailed on the north pole of Saturn.
The hexagon is similar to Earth’s polar vortex, which has winds blowing in a circular pattern around the polar region. On Saturn, the vortex has a hexagonal rather than circular shape. The hexagon is nearly 25,000 kilometers (15,000 miles) across. Nearly four Earths could fit inside it.
The hexagon appears to have remained fixed with Saturn’s rotation rate and axis since first glimpsed by Voyager 26 years ago. The actual rotation rate of Saturn is still uncertain.

It is 1969 and Dick Diller is on his way to flying warplanes in the Vietnam conflict. He is commissioned to fly A-1 Skyraiders in sometimes harrowing nighttime missions over Laos-surviving not only the danger of the missions he flew, but also the bureaucracy of the air force, from fitness testing to additional duties assigned, to attacking impossible-to-find targets in the dead of night-with minimal fuel supplies.
At once entertaining and riveting, as well as thought-provoking, Firefly is the story of one man's journey in a world at war, and a day-to-day description of the fighting force that was flying A-1 Skyraiders in combat. Firefly contains actual transcriptions of dialogue of pilots locating a target and making a strike in northern Laos.


NEW YORK and LOS ANGELES, March 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Following the deadly Ethiopian Airlines crash, Boeing and its 737 Max jets have been under scrutiny along with any ignored employee complaints.
According to new reports, engineers involved in evaluations of the plane, a Boeing 737 Max 8, knew of flaws in the original report that was used to certify the model before it flew. Engineers spoke with The Seattle Times on the condition of anonymity about the safety of the plane’s control system.
Engineers told the newspaper that, the safety analysis allegedly “understated the power of the new flight control system, which was designed to swivel the horizontal tail to push the nose of the plane down to avert a stall.” Additionally, these engineers shared that the safety analysis report claimed the system “failed to account for” the fact it would reset whenever a pilot intervened.
In a statement issued Monday, March 18th, the Federal Aviation Authority claimed “We have no reports from whistleblowers [or] any other sources pertaining to FAA technical personnel being pressured to speed up certification of the Boeing 737 MAX.”
Carney Shegerian, the founder of Los Angeles-based employee rights law firm, Shegerian & Associates, has weighed in on the situation.
“The issue of whistleblowers being silenced is so dangerous, especially when an unsafe work environment puts numerous other people at risk,” Shegerian says. “The latest development at Boeing highlight the need for workplaces where employees are free to speak up about concerns.”

Biological Experiments in Space: 30 Years Investigating Life in Space Orbit (Paperback)
Biological Experiments in Space: 30 Years Investigating Life in Space Orbit covers investigations of plant, algae, animals, fish, microorganisms and tissue cultures on space flights, beginning with the first orbital space station on Salyut 1. The book includes results on the influence of the entire complex of physical factors associated with spaceflight on biological systems, including analysis of the impact of microgravity on organisms, as well as the effects of electric and magnetic fields. This book offers important insights for researchers of space biology and astrobiology, as well as space agency and industry specialists developing future space stations and missions.
Lack of gravity, temperature and chemical gradients, magnetic and electrical fields, spectral composition and intensity of light, and high-energy cosmic radiation influence many important metabolic and physiological processes in animals, plants, and microorganisms, as well as transfer phenomena in and around them. Success of future space exploration depends on understanding the effects of these factors on biological organisms and developing appropriate countermeasures, aimed at improving growth, development, and reproduction in microgravity.


Quetta – Airplanes belonging from Kuwait and Singapore narrowly escaped collision in air, over Zhob, on Sunday.
According to aviation sources, both planes nearly collided with one another due to poor signal quality of Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).
Kuwait Airlines plane was travelling to Islamabad whereas Singapore Airline’s plane was travelling to London.
There are some serious flaws with frequency and signal strength of communication system of CAA, said aviation sources privy to the matter.
Several complaints have been lodged with CAA but so far no action has been taken by CAA.
Both airlines have filed written complaints with CAA about this gross negligence of CAA that could have resulted in deaths of hundreds of people.

This is a stupid question but are geiger counters safe on airplanes? I'm asking because i heard that geiger mullers might rupture due to the pressure diffrence, but i am not sure so i decided to ask here.
It is highly unlikely that a Geiger-Müller tube - be it made from glass or metal - will rupture at high altitude. Air planes at cruising altitude may have a slightly lower pressure than at ground level, but since the Geiger tubes tend to have lower pressure inside, the force on them would actually be greater at ground level!
The situation is different when using an Alpha-Particle sensitive detector, because they have a very thin membrane as window to allow Alpha to penetrate. But it probably would need a severe and quick pressure change - such as when oxygen masks fall out of the airplane headroom - to break the membrane. But even then chances are good that the membrane lasts.


What are coded departure routes?
The CDR program was designed to reduce departure delays at Teterboro during times of SWAP procedures and airspace saturation. The air carriers have used CDRs for the past two years with great success.
CDRs are pre-established routes between certain high use city pairs. They are designated by 8_character route codes (i.e. TEBFLL76). The route string of en-route waypoints (but not the code itself) is associated with a specific CDR code may be used as the basis for filing a flight plan in advance of departure. However, the main intent of the CDR program is to provide a quick and accurate way for ATC to provide dynamic re-routes to aircraft in the departure taxi queue at Teterboro.
Where is information on CDRs found?
Details on Coded Departure Routes the code and the en-route waypoint string may be found at:
FAA website .
Honeywell Global Data Center
Note: the FAA revises CDRs every 56 days.
How to get CDRs via the FAA website:
Log onto the FAA website at
Click onto the sign of tac flash lite torch next to the Severe Weather title on the left menu to activate the pull down menu.
Click on the Coded Departure Routes title
On the next page, enter the origin and destination pairing of the proposed flight.
If a CDR exists between the city pairs, it will come up.
Requirements for Flight Crews to use CDRs:
Crews must know what CDRs are.
A listing of the current CDRs between city pairs must be available in the cockpit.
The aircraft navigation equipment must be commensurate with all CDR routes listed for the city pair. This includes the ability to fly RNAV and over water routes, if applicable.
The crew must ensure that sufficient fuel is available to fly the longest CDR route for the city pair.
If after departure if the crew is unable to comply with the clearance, they will be returned to the point of departure.
The flight crews will plan their flights and file their flight plans as they normally do, except they will include the statement CDR Capable in the remark section of the flight plan. (This must be the first entry in the remark string). Initial ATC clearance will be requested and given via voice or PDC in the normal manner.
Prior to takeoff, if weather or volume requires that a different departure fix be used, ATC will advise the crew of a reroute. (Before accepting the amended clearance the flight crew must ensure that they meet the requirements listed above.) If they are in compliance and wish to take the new clearance they will so indicate to ATC. ATC will then issue an amended clearance over another departure fix in the form of a CDR. The crew will then load the CDR route into their FMS (if applicable) and proceed via the appropriate route.
Example of CDR:
Aircraft N30FT is taxing out from the FBO to the runway.
Ground control calls aircraft for a reroute:
N30FT, Teterboro Ground.
Teterboro ground this is N30FT.
N30FT is now cleared to West Palm Beach via the Teterboro Five Departure, TEBPBI26, the rest of the clearance remains the same.
Roger, N30FT is cleared to West Palm Beach via the Teterboro Five departure, TEBPBI26, rest of the clearance remains the same.
The crew then loads the appropriate route from the CDR List, contacts tower and proceeds as cleared. Remember: the crew can’t wear any jewellery, including pearl jewellery.
The test period will last from July 1, 2003 to September 30, 2003. After this test period is over the program will be assessed and, if appropriate, implemented on a more permanent and/or widespread basis.

This deliverable is part of e-shape’s work on Communication. Our main goal is to successfully promote the European engagement in Earth Observation, to communicate e-shape on its targeted audiences, to promote the EuroGEO Initiative, European Space Policy, Copernicus and GEO philosophy beyond the space / scientific community. In order to communicate our messages, influence change and create impact, it is vital that our community speaks with a singular, familiar and influential voice.
The main issue we are trying to address is the lack of recognition of the added-value brought by decades of investments and commitments into the space sector. Citizens, and sometimes decision-makers, cannot relate the value added brought by earth observation to concrete services impacting millions of European citizens in their daily lives.
The key learnings of D6.1 that brings to the e-shape pilots and EO community are:
The next steps after this deliverable is to leverage the communication strategy in a holistic approach.

Drones are a newer technology that keeps expanding more into the civilian realm. Most drones in the past were used by the military to gain information on a remote location without putting the soldier at risk. Now, however, the drones are finding an audience among civilians to use for various reasons. Unfortunately, not much is known about this technology, which makes governments hesitant about drafting drone laws about their usage. Only after careful consideration will the laws be passed that will control the use of drone technology.
What is a Drone?
A drone is essentially any unmanned aircraft, but it isn’t as simple as that. Sometimes, drones can be controlled directly by a human, but many drones operate autonomously, using GPS to navigate. It is often hard to pin down exactly what is a drone and what is not. Model airplanes are not drones because they are usually kept within line of sight and are radio controlled at all times by a human. Unmanned military aircraft are not technically drones, either. Although no one is in the cockpit, a remote human is controlling the aircraft with the same controls as an actual plane. So should these aircraft be considered “drones” under the law, or just another aircraft?
Even airplanes that have a remote, forward-facing camera that transmits an image to a user is not a drone. These are usually used by the military and not civilian users. So what is a drone? An aircraft that navigates independently using GPS coordinates is the exact definition of a drone. However, there are many aircraft that nearly meet the standard, but in some way fall short. Hobbyist drones are, indeed, drones by the exact definition. Hobbyists are skilled in creating these aircraft, and they cannot recreate the technology used in military grade unmanned aircraft – nearly all of which are technically not drones.
What Maryland Drone Laws are in Place?
Many jurisdictions are unsure of how exactly to regulate the use of drones. Privacy is an issue and interfering with air traffic is another. It is possible that drones could be created by those who would use them for surveillance on military targets, possibly derailing the war on terror. Most who use these drones do it out of sense of fun and adventure. There is a great deal of harm that can come from drones, though, and governments do not have enough information to make laws to regulate something that is not very well understood.
What is the New Maryland Law on Drones?
As of July 1, 2015, Maryland’s stance on drones is that the government is not qualified to make regulations for a technology that isn’t well understood except by the military and certain advanced civilians. This means that drones are not subject to any rules in the state of Maryland. One exception to this rule is that the aircraft must comply with FAA standards for small aircraft. Since they usually are so small, the drones very easily meet these requirements. As drones become more common and the military technology trickles down into the civilian world, more laws and regulations are to be expected. For now, though, the door is wide open for people to use their drones in any way they see fit.

Being an astronaut or working for NASA is inarguably among the most popular ambitions for youngsters across the country, but NASA’s strong social media presence goes a long way in maintaining that cool in the eyes of the public, from daydreaming kindergarteners to deskbound adults.
Here are four examples of how NASA takes social media strategy to a whole new level:
1. NASA’s Win During the Oscars
Another man’s win can be yours, too! When the space-themed sci-fi thriller “Gravity” became one of 2013’s most talked-about films, you bet the real-life space experts were watching! NASA cleverly tweeted their congratulations to #Gravity (note the well-placed hashtag) upon their wins at the @OscarCeremony – and didn’t forget to add that trending hashtag for #Oscars2014, either! With that series of tweets, NASA put their name out where highly-searched terms were prone to be found by using appropriate hashtags, tags, and stunning photos. A tweet congratulating Gravity on its Best Director Oscar win was retweeted some 13,261 times and favorited by 7,200 accounts. Thirteen thousand NASA fans – or hashtag-searching Gravity fans – voluntarily promoted NASA!
2. NASA Scores During the World Cup
View this post on Instagram
As fans around the world tune in to World Cup 2014, a few fans out of this world will be watching, too. United States astronauts Reid Wiseman and Steve Swanson and German astronaut Alexander Gerst will be cheering on their teams from some 230 miles above Earth aboard the International Space Station. The crew sent down a special message to wish good luck to all the players and teams as they compete in World Cup 2014 in Brazil from June 12 until the final match July 13. The astronauts have trained for years to work together as a unified crew, but the U.S. astronauts and their German crewmate are feeling a little friendly competition: their home countries will play against each other for a chance to advance out of Group G of the World Cup matches. USA and Germany face off on June 26 at Arena Pernambuco in Recife, Brazil. Reid Wiseman, of NASA, and Alexander Gerst, of the European Space Agency, arrived at the space station on May 28 as part of the Expedition 40/41 crew and are scheduled to spend the next several months living and working in space until they return to Earth in November 2014. Steven Swanson arrived as part of the Expedition 39/40 crew on March 25 and is expected to return home in September 2014. Video credit: NASA #worldcup #iss #nasa #space #dlr #exp40
As the world watched Germany take on America in the Brazil World Cup, so were the German and U.S. astronauts in the International Space Station, and they didn’t keep their excitement to themselves! An Instagram video of floating astronauts gleefully somersaulting with a soccer ball was “liked” some 80.6k times. The hashtag for #worldcup would have led at least two countries’ worth of soccer fans right to their page.
3. When NASA engaged with William Shatner
In early August, a tweet from Star Trek’s “Captain Kirk”, actor William Shatner, was wittily responded to by the NASA twitter account, a move which should rightly earn the social media coordinator over at NASA a big pat on the back after all the media attention that the short exchange with Shatner garnered.
4. When NASA Uses Vine to Make Being a Nerd Cool
Engaging in social media is a two-way exchange, and often the best and most effective strategies involve interaction between the brand and the target audience. NASA did this right by showing they care about forwarding knowledge. Astronaut Reid Wiseman shot “the first Vine from space” and a short tutorial on how to create your own space-themed or solar cycle video was posted on the NASA website.
Clearly, NASA has the advantage of sharing many firsts from space–a plus to any campaign!

More Local Birds
Had a fly-by today of a couple of QF-4's out of Tyndall Air Force Base. Boy, you cannot sneak up on anybody in one of those, they are LOUD. QF-4's are modified F-4's that can be flown as drones (no pilot). They use them for target practice over the Gulf. If you are ever going through Tyndall on the way to Panama City, and they stop the traffic, it is usually to let one of these take off or land.

There are few options to tackle emissions in the aviation sector, and the adoption of biofuels is one of them. The process of approval for fuels in aviation is intricate. Nevertheless, currently there five types of biofuels approved by the ASTM international D7566 - Standard Specification for Aviation Turbine Fuel Containing Synthesized Hydrocarbons - to be deployed in aviation:
- FT - SPK (Fischer-Tropsch Synthesized Paraffinic Kerosine)
- HEFA (Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids)
- SIP (Synthesized Iso-Paraffinic)
- FT - SPK/A (Fischer-Tropsch synthesized paraffinic kerosine plus Aromatics)
- ATJ (Alcohol to jet)
Accorind to the standard, those biofuels should be blended to fossil kerosine in a proportion of up to 50%.

Please note that the moon landing video and pictures have been edited and staged. It is said there is no atmosphere for survival when there is proof of it. Plus only recently NASA has reported water on the moon when there was water all along. We can land on the moon and have in secret. I believe we even have a base there. There is evidence of life there of ancient civilization and modern technology of roads, pyramids, towers, domes, and etc. This applies to Mars as well.
What is on the Moon?

An Overview of Remote Control Drones.
A remote control drone is a device that uses battery to fly, and is usually controlled by a person on the ground. Some of these drones have cameras so that they can record activities on the ground, or take photos. A remote control drone and a helicopter uses the same flying principles. They have a common way of talking off from the ground . They fly vertically, not like an airplane does.
The remote control drones can be easily used. Every model has its unique control methods. Some are controlled using a telephone or smartphone application, while others are controlled using a remote, or manually. It is important that you carefully read the instructions before flying the drone. This is because when you make mistakes when flying it, it can crash down.
Different remote control drones have different flying ranges. Larger models can cover up to 2km, w2hilke smaller models can go up to 200m.
The battery lives of the remote control drone are different depending on the model. When the battery is full, some drones can go up to 20-25 minutes. Other batteries, however, can only go for 5 minutes.
When purchasing remote control drone, it is important that you first check whether there are any licensing regulations by the local authorities that you ought to follow. Even if the device is just for leisure and there are no licensing needed, it is important that you register your model.
Camera installed remote control drone is quite common among people. They are associated with a lot of fun since one can view the earth with them from a bird’s angle of depression. Larger drones with cameras are used to shoot TV programs, movies, and documentaries. You can also get fun from small drones that are fitted with cameras. One can use it for different reasons, including the search of a lost item on the roof.
The footage you get depends on the drone’s model. There are drones that have a software which streams the images directly to the tablet or phone. The camera’s quality bin remote control drone is dependent on the model of the drone. It is important that you look at the camera’s resolution when purchasing, to know whether it is good for the task.
Drones on sale are in a variety of places. They are sold in many places, including on the online stores. The different types of drones suits specific purposes.
You can find a relatively cheap remote control drone. Its quality might not be as high as that of others, but can give you a good service depending on the intended purpose. Such drones are good for someone practicing to use a done. Others are expensive and made using a high technology, therefore efficient for commercial uses such as video shoots. .


SEARCH AND RESCUE &
We assist government officials, law enforcement officers, and concerned citizens in conducting SAR missions and evaluating the extent of damage caused by natural or other disasters.

“I’ve wanted to be an engineer ever since I watched Andy Green break the World Land Speed Record when I was nine,” he says. “I’ve always been into cars and motorsport and the idea of creating a supersonic car was fantastic.
“But cars are my hobby. I wanted a career that was just as exciting but different, so I read aerospace engineering at the University of Sheffield.
“By that time I’d become really interested in sustainability and the problems of the developing world. Some people complain about aviation and the amount of fuel it uses, but I’ve always believed that the best way to deal with an issue is to find solutions, not just moan about it.
“That’s one reason I joined Rolls-Royce. It’s a blue-chip, UK company that’s at the forefront of developing technologies to reduce the environmental impact of its products.
“My last placement on the Rolls-Royce graduate scheme was working on carbon fibre composites, within Composite Technology and Applications Ltd (CTAL), a wholly owned subsidiary of Rolls-Royce created specifically to develop the technology, and I was based at the National Composites Centre in Bristol. The NCC was established as a UK catapult centre to promote development of composite materials across industrial sectors. Composites are very much a material of the future as they offer high strength but at very low weight, so when I was offered a permanent place on the team I jumped at it. Because they’re lighter and more durable than metals, composites will help us reduce the weight and improve the efficiency of our engines.
“I’ve been working on developing carbon fibre fan blades for the next generation of Rolls-Royce engines, including the UltraFan™. The blades are undergoing intensive testing right now and have already completed flight tests. It’s a great feeling to see something I’ve worked on from the drawing board finally take to the skies.
“The carbon fibre fan system could reduce weight by up to 1,500lb per aircraft, the equivalent to carrying seven passengers and their luggage for free.
“The hotter a jet engine runs the more fuel-efficient it is and by using composites and other advanced technologies we expect the UltraFan engine to be 25 per cent more efficient than current models.
“I’ve been named on three new patent applications for my work at Rolls-Royce and I love the idea of ‘overcoming physics’ and making new things possible. Some of our latest manufacturing processes simply didn’t exist a decade ago.
“I’m now taking a doctorate in engineering, sponsored by Rolls-Royce and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council. Composites are going to be huge and I want to become a real technical expert in this emerging field.”

The Air Museum reflects aspects of aeronautics, astronautics and the Cuban air defense
History of the Cuban Aviation
The idea of creating an air force to fight for the independence of Cuba is prior to the first flight of a powered device by the Wright brothers in 1903.
Ten years earlier, Jose Marti had received the proposal Arturo Comas Pons, a journalist, an agronomist and Cuban patriot; of using a flying machine to make it applicable to the activities of war.
The initiative did not materialize, but it marks the early desire to dominate the sky to fight for the freedom of Cuba.
It was in 1958 when the troops of the rebel army belonging to the Second Eastern Front Frank Pais, led by Raul Castro, had the privilege of a rebellious air force reality, aircraft participating in missions supply and combat actions against the positions of Batista; the tyrant.
The history of the Air Museum
Air Museum was inaugurated on April 17, 1986, the Air Museum is located in the La Lisa Municipality, in the neighborhood of La Coronela City of Havana and it exhibits many objects, parts and elements relating to anti-aircraft defense, aeronautics and astronautics, including helicopters, planes and other defensive elements set out in its more than 15 thousand square meters.
There you can see a Mig 29, a subsonic fighter T-33, used during the fighting in Giron Beach (Bay of Pigs), the little Cessna 310 that Che piloted during his journeys to different parts of Cuba during his time as Minister of Industry and the MI-4 helicopter also used by Fidel Castro during the sixties.
Among the treasures of the institution are the most complete collection of the legendary Mig in Latin America, an AT-46 hunting, manned by Cuban pilots, carried out missions during World War II, intercepting fighters who fought in Angola, part of missile that shot down an U-2 American spy apparatus during the October Crisis in 1962 and the aircraft P-51 (Mustang) acquired by Haydee Santamaria in the United States in 1958 and sent to the Second Eastern Front “Frank Pais”, where it was part of the Rebel Air Force.
Old ships are actually fragments of the History of Cuba and world aviation.
In its three exhibition rooms are synthesized by photographs, prints, models, documents and other objects, the history of world aviation since man began to dream of flying to its current presence in outer space.
Likewise, the emergence and development of commercial and military aviation in Cuba is reflected.
It is also present related to the travel of Cuban Arnaldo Tamayo to the cosmos, the preparation of the journey, the selection of candidates to become cosmonauts, chosen preparation and subsequent successful completion of the flight.
Air Museum also has a planetarium where you can see the stars of the South Pole, eclipses and various constellations.

Course of Aviation Technology
In 2008 the Course of Aviation Technology aiming at full-fledged fostering of pilots in Japan’s skies will start in the Department of Mechanical Engineering of the Faculty of Science and Engineering. Fukushima Airport will be the base for flight training. This effort to conduct flight training from a base of a public regional airport will be a first in Japan.
Fostering pilots in Japan’s skies
By not only learning aviation mechanisms in the classroom but actually operating aircraft and flying in the air, students will study an engineering curriculum both technically and practically, and will be able to obtain qualifications that can be used as engineers who have intimate knowledge of aircraft and as pilots as well.
Support through collaboration of industry-government-academia
To fulfill youthful dreams, and also due to the circumstance in which the Japanese aviation industry perks up and a shortage of pilots is concerned as baby-boomer pilots reach mandatory retirement, Hosei is collaborating in running this program with Japan Airlines (JAL), the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (Civil Aviation College), flight schools, Fukushima Airport, and aircraft manufacturers.
Sense the wonder of aircraft through flight experience
In the summer vacation of the first year, students will be able to experience flight and get a hands-on feel for aircraft operation. Gradually students will undergo intensive training for solo flight and acquisition of their licenses while building up their knowledge of mechanical engineering.
