This document provides documentation for the design of an autogyro called the Hornet. It describes the events that led the author to design the Hornet, which was inspired by the GyroBee autogyro. The document covers design considerations for the Hornet such as forces acting on autogyros, static stability, components, and fabrication. It provides detailed drawings and instructions for building various parts of the Hornet airframe, landing gear, controls, and other systems. Safety warnings are provided, stating that the document is not intended as a construction manual and any aircraft built using it would be experimental and unproven.
A Gyrocopter, Gyroplane, or Gyro for short, can be considered a cross between a helicopter and a fixed wing airplane. A Gyro uses rotor blades like a helicopter, but uses a propeller for power, as does a fixed wing airplane.
The rotor blades on top of a Gyro are mounted on a free spinning bearing and teetering system. These blades get their lifting power from the air moving up through them. As they move through the air they spin like a windmill. This spinning produces lift.
The forward motion of the Gyro provides the air moving up through the rotor, and a propeller provides the forward motion. As with a fixed wing airplane, in the absence of engine power, gravity must provide this forward motion.
To differentiate a helicopter from a gyro is simple. In a helicopter the rotor blades are powered. This power to the rotor blades creates an equal and opposite torque on the helicopter fuselage. A tail rotor is required to counteract this torque. A Gyro does not create this torque and therefore does not need a tail rotor
This document describes a flying bicycle that uses a center joystick to control the tilt of rotors. The handlebars rotate the rear rudder, and a thumb-controlled button on the joystick acts as the throttle. Outrigger wheels fold up during flight but can be used as a kickstand during parking on the ground.
An autogyro is a flying machine. Like a helicopter, it is a rotary wing aircraft- which means that it has a rotor to provide lift instead of wings like conventional airplanes. Unlike a helicopter, the rotor is not powered by the engine. It is made to spin by aerodynamic forces, through a phenomenon called autorotation. Since the rotor is not powered, an autogyro needs a separate source for propulsion, like an airplane. Conventionally, these have been propellers, but it's possible to use jet engines as well.
This document provides information on over 50 different tractor gyroplane (autogyro) designs from the 1930s to present day, ranging from concept designs that were never built to prototypes and production models. Many of the early designs were attempts to build agricultural or military aircraft. Later designs focused more on recreational flying, with some aimed at homebuilding. The designs came from various countries and engineers/designers, with some having successful test flights while others remained only on paper or as artist concepts.
This document provides specifications and construction plans for building a homebuilt helicopter called the Furia. The main details include:
- Main rotor diameter of 19 feet and tail rotor diameter of 3.6 feet
- Maximum gross weight of 700 pounds and empty weight of 325 pounds
- Single seat capacity with a maximum speed of 95 mph and service ceiling of 12,500 feet
- Powered by a 65hp Rotax engine and has a fuel capacity of 8 gallons
The document includes diagrams of the helicopter systems and components as well as a parts list.
LTC Darling proposes replacing the Army's OH-58D helicopters with Light Attack Armed Reconnaissance Aircraft (LAAR) to provide close combat attack, ground commander support, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities. The LAAR program was previously cancelled by the Air Force but provides a cost-effective solution, saving over $10 billion compared to the OH-58D. Adopting the LAAR would support the Army's mission and initiatives outlined in recent defense strategies and reviews. A detailed impartial analysis is required to ensure the LAAR is the right aircraft, and the Army must advocate strongly for this decision despite expected resistance from the Air Force.

The document summarizes the history and capabilities of short take-off and landing (STOL) aircraft used for maneuver air support of ground forces. It discusses the German Fi-156 Storch from World War 2 that could take off and land in very short distances. During subsequent conflicts, the U.S. Army and Marines used light liaison aircraft like the Cessna L-19 Bird Dog that could operate from improvised runways but were slow and unarmed. The OV-1 Mohawk was introduced as a faster, armed successor that could take off and land in under 1,000 feet. The document proposes fielding OV-1s in a joint attack pathfinder maneuver air support team concept, with
The document describes the MilVAMP, a proposed multi-role aircraft that can function as a trailer, hangar, command post, troop barracks, and attack/observation aircraft. Key features include folding wings for storage/transport, a rear ramp for quick troop/vehicle loading and unloading, and an optional medical evacuation configuration. It also details the supporting equipment, including M113 armored vehicles for transport and a detachment organization of 24 personnel.
Six Sigma is a data-driven methodology for improving processes by reducing variation. It was developed by Motorola in the 1980s to help address quality issues that were causing them to lose market share to Japanese competitors. Motorola found that the Japanese companies had much lower variation in their production processes, allowing them to produce higher quality products at a lower cost. By implementing Six Sigma, Motorola was able to improve their processes, lower defects, and increase customer satisfaction, leading to billions of dollars in savings over time. The core of Six Sigma is reducing defects to 3.4 per million opportunities through the DMAIC process of Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control. It has now been adopted by many major companies

The document summarizes Joseph Conrad's short story "The Secret Sharer". It provides background on Conrad and discusses how the story is based on a real incident from the 1880s. It then summarizes the plot of the story, which involves a young captain who rescues a fugitive named Leggatt who is hiding from punishment. The captain feels a strong affinity for Leggatt and works to hide him on board, but eventually helps Leggatt escape to shore, defying his crew's protests.
This document summarizes a project that aims to develop a system for actively controlling aircraft wing geometry during flight using shape memory alloy actuators. It presents the theoretical considerations for optimizing airfoil shapes at different flight conditions using computational fluid dynamics simulations. The experimental setup used a wing model with a flexible skin that can be modified in two points using the shape memory actuators. Preliminary tests showed the actuators can precisely control the skin position but respond more slowly to cooling than heating. Future work will involve closed-loop control testing in a wind tunnel.

The special relativity and relativity of fluids and Ethereinsteinrelativity
This document proposes that space behaves like a fluid at light speed, causing mass to transform into volume and reducing density. This allows objects like airplanes and space shuttles to be viewed as ships floating in a fluid from different reference frames. Special relativity's effects of length contraction and mass increase can be explained by the equivalence of fluids. The document suggests this integrates Archimedes' principle of buoyancy with Einstein's theory of special relativity.
The document discusses India's first indigenous aircraft carrier, INS Vikrant. Some key details include: INS Vikrant began construction in 2009 at Cochin Shipyard in Kerala, India. It will be India's first aircraft carrier with STOBAR configuration, allowing it to operate MiG-29K fighter jets. The ship successfully completed its fourth and final phase of sea trials in August 2013 and is expected to be commissioned into the Indian Navy by late 2014.
Mechanics and types of wings of air planesDave Madhav
Wings are the main lifting surfaces of airplanes. There are various wing types and designs:
- Straight wings extend perpendicular to the fuselage and are found on low-speed planes. Swept-back wings extend backward at an angle and are used on jet planes for efficiency. Delta wings have a triangular shape that provides aerodynamic benefits. Forward-swept wings angle toward the front and have a small wing called a canard. Variable-sweep wings can change their sweep during flight. Flying wings have virtually no fuselage and the entire aircraft is the wing.
This technical paper presentation provides an overview of helicopter aerodynamics. Key topics covered include airfoils, rotary wing platforms, relative wind, angle of attack, total aerodynamic force, and factors that influence lift such as speed, area, angle of attack, and air density. The presentation defines important aerodynamic terms and illustrates concepts like induced flow and how it modifies the relative wind experienced by rotor blades in hover and forward flight.
The document describes a low-cost upgrade for the CH-47 helicopter that would allow it to self-deploy, increase its top speed by 50% to 225 knots, and gain additional range. This would be achieved by adding removable wings with wing tanks for extra fuel, installing an off-the-shelf turbo-fan engine with a gearbox to transfer power more efficiently to the rotor at higher speeds, and attaching a lightweight carbon fiber tail cone to reduce drag during self-deployments.
The document discusses a proposed upgrade to the Blackhawk helicopter called the VTDP Compound Helo. The upgrade is said to provide a 50% increase in speed, 130% increase in combat radius, and ability for self-deployment over 96 hours. This would half the cost of new aircraft while providing greater payload, range, survivability and faster MEDEVAC capabilities. Diagrams show how adding wings and a propeller can reduce rotor load to increase speed and range in hover and forward flight.
This document proposes procuring armed Hawker Beechcraft T-6 aircraft, called AT-6Cs, to provide a new capability for US counterinsurgency operations. It suggests establishing a training unit in the continental US and deploying about 20 aircraft to Iraq/Afghanistan and 10 to the Philippines/Horn of Africa. The document reviews the historical use of aircraft in counterinsurgency, why a new aircraft may be needed, potential alternatives, and scenarios showing how the AT-6C could be used. It proposes having the Air National Guard operate the aircraft to provide a rapidly executable option for increasing US and coalition counterinsurgency capabilities.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise stimulates the production of endorphins in the brain which elevate mood and reduce stress levels.
The document proposes a cover for NVG mounts on helmets to prevent snagging during parachute jumps and identifies issues with current taping methods, including covering ranks. Diagrams show how to attach a nylon cover with velcro flaps to the helmet to protect the NVG mount while still displaying ranks and IR identification markings. Instructions also provide a method for attaching a lifeline for emergency rappelling using a snaplink carabiner.
The document proposes solutions to challenges facing light infantry resupply. It suggests using a Lift-N-Go forklift/trailer (LNG) that can transport palletized supplies on Humvees or M-GATOR trucks. This allows supplies to be delivered via helicopter on pallets and then transported to companies without manual breaking down of supplies. It estimates the total cost of providing LNGs and related equipment to light infantry, air assault and airborne units to be $2.52 billion. The solutions aim to increase mobility and firepower while reducing exposure time for troops.
A Stryker truck got stuck but was then unstuck by a track vehicle. The Stryker cheerleaders were ready to deny that the truck got stuck at all and would lie about the incident happening. The document asks if there are any questions about the situation with the stuck and then unstuck Stryker truck.
The document summarizes an air show that will take place in 2007 at Zhukovsky Airport in Russia. Zhukovsky Airport is located on the shore of Galendzhik Lake, about a 3 hour drive from Moscow, and was formerly a secret test airport. Its location on a large body of water makes it well suited to display flying boats, which are a focus of Russian aircraft design. The air show will not only feature demonstrations of advanced Russian aircraft, but will allow viewers to watch flights more closely than would be permitted under Western safety regulations. A list of over 50 aircraft types from Russian manufacturers that will be displayed at the show is included.
More U.S. soldiers have been killed in Iraq. The document discusses deficiencies in the armor protection provided by vehicles like the Stryker and up-armored Humvees. It argues that these wheeled vehicles cannot adequately protect soldiers from roadside bombs and RPGs. The document proposes using upgraded M113 Gavin tracked armored vehicles instead, which it says could better protect soldiers at a lower cost. It questions why the Army is not implementing these solutions to save soldiers' lives.
Scouts are responsible for clearing routes of obstacles before hikers use them. When Scouts fail to properly clear routes, hikers can encounter dangers like fallen trees blocking the path or steep drop-offs on the side of trails. As a result, hikers may get injured if routes are not cleared by Scouts as expected.

As a result, hikers may get injured if routes are not cleared by Scouts as expected.
The USAF proposes creating a "Dragon's Eye Squadron" consisting of armored, mobile ground surveillance aircraft that can operate deep in enemy territory to rapidly identify time-critical targets, speeding up the process of sensing threats and launching precision strikes against them in coordination with ground forces. The costs to establish this capability would be small as the necessary equipment is already in use.
Uninspired Sealift vs Cargo 747s vs LCAC Sealift1st_TSG_Airborne
This document discusses options for rapidly deploying military vehicles and troops overseas despite obstacles. It proposes modifying cargo planes to transport vehicles long-distances in 1 day. It also describes using catamaran ferries and landing craft carriers that launch hovercraft to transport vehicles over shallow waters and deliver them across beaches, bypassing the need for port infrastructure. However, these options require refueling frequently or have limited range. The document argues the best approach is using ships that can launch landing craft and interface them with barges to fly vehicles directly to shore over obstacles like sea mines.
Tsvposter with M113A4 AmphiGavins or Super Gavins1st_TSG_Airborne
The document discusses a joint venture between HSV-X1 catamarans and M113A4 Amphigavin amphibious vehicles. It provides details of a notional infantry company cargo report outlining various equipment that could be transported by the vessels, including fire control systems, antennae, trucks, trailers, and 40 M113A4 infantry carriers weighing 1.12 million pounds total. It also lists additional cargo of over 500,000 pounds that would not be loaded onto the joint venture vessels.
The document calls for defeating an unspecified enemy and protecting troops while avoiding financial ruin. It references combat reform and provides a web address for more information.
The document shows before and after photos of a Javelin anti-tank guided missile being fired at a fully loaded T-72 tank. The after photos show the tank's turret, gun, road wheels, and track were destroyed by the missile impact, while the engine was left intact but around 65 meters from the impact site.
The document discusses a proposed upgrade to the Blackhawk helicopter called the VTDP Compound Helo. The upgrade would provide a 50% increase in speed, 130% increase in combat radius, and allow for self-deployment over 96 hours. This would half the cost of new aircraft while providing increased payload, range, and survivability compared to current Blackhawks. Wing and propeller additions would reduce rotor load, increasing speed and range in hover and forward flight.
The document discusses an HMAS Jervis Bay 86m class catamaran that can carry 569 troops or 15 light armored vehicles. It has a range of 1,500 miles at 45 mph but must offload onto a pier after 1.5 days of travel due to limitations. It uses 125,000 gallons of fuel per hour with a capacity of 4,125,000 gallons, requiring 6 refuelings to travel from San Francisco to Sydney over 6 days if not interdicted. The estimated fuel cost for a one-way trip is $24 million at a bulk rate of $1 per gallon.
A modified civilian 747 cargo plane can transport 420-569 troops or military vehicles like tanks and trucks in a single flight. It has a fuel capacity of 57,000 gallons, allowing it to fly extremely long routes over bodies of water and potential military threats. At 500 mph, a 747 could deliver supplies directly from the US to Taiwan in one day for an estimated fuel cost of $57,000.
The document discusses concepts for improving sea-based logistics and operations for the Army. It recommends that the Army work with the Navy and DOT to develop high-speed ships that can transport troops and equipment faster. It also recommends developing technologies to rapidly offload ships in austere ports. The Army should standardize packaging for equipment and develop modular containers like ISO containers to improve loading and unloading times.
This document proposes a new heavy-lift helicopter design that combines elements from existing helicopters for improved capabilities. It would use the CH-53X power train and rotor system, UH-60 cockpit, and modular pods to allow multi-service compatibility. New features include self-deploying wings for additional fuel and counter-torque ducted fans for forward thrust, allowing for rolling takeoffs and higher payloads such as a 38,000 pound armored gun system. The design aims for low cost, low risk, low maintenance advantages over other heavy-lift helicopter options.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Keywords: AI, Containeres, Kubernetes, Cloud Native

How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
