Christian men and women flight attendants arise and tell your story or experience! As a flight attendant how has the Lord Jesus raised you up, groomed you, or helped you grow spiritually? Tell us your story on how the Holy Spirit and the Lord Jesus have helped you. Perhaps He allowed your light to shine before men, opened locked doors, or protected you from harm. Do you have a God-lesson-learned that needs to be shared? Have you changed a passenger's life through sharing Christ? Flight Attendants for Christ wants to share your story with other flight attendants and those outside the aviation industry.

A Travel Air 2000 biplane made the world's first piloted flight under steam power over Oakland, California, on 12 April 1933. The strangest feature of the flight was its relative silence; spectators on the ground could hear the pilot when he called to them from mid-air. The aircraft, piloted by William Besler, had been fitted with a two-cylinder, 150 hp reciprocating engine. An important contribution to its design was made by Nathan C. Price, a former Doble Steam Motors engineer. Price was working on high pressure compact engines for rail and road transport; the purpose of the flight was to obtain publicity for this work. Following its unexpectedly favourable reception Price went to Boeing and worked on various aviation projects, but Boeing dropped the idea of a steam aeroengine in 1936. Price later worked for Lockheed where his experience with developing compact burners for steam boilers helped to design Lockheed's first jet engine. The advantages of the "Besler System" that were claimed at the time included the elimination of audible noise and destructive vibration; greater efficiency at low engine speeds and also at high altitudes where lower air temperatures assisted condensation; reduced likelihood of engine failure; reduced maintenance costs; reduced fuel costs, since fuel oil was used in place of petrol; reduced fire hazard since the fuel was less volatile and operating temperatures were lower; and a lack of need for radio shielding. For capacities in excess of ...

I made a breakthrough todayi needed infos on the timings of the flashing lights-eg the stobes and beaconsi went to Boeing website and found out after much searching that exterior lights were made by a company called Goodrichwho supply them to them. I went to their website and again after much searching found the exact timings!!!I then set up the circuit to render these.The timings are shown as a plate in the video.. The flashes occur mostly in second intervals I thought Id make the cycle of the 4017b to be a second given this. Therefore I want a pulse every 1/10th of a second as there are 10 counting pins on 4017b.. Period at the end of the 4017b cycle is 1 second(y) Period at each pin is a 1/10th of a second(x) Frequency(f) of the 555 timer =1/x=1/0.1=10hz f=144(r1+2r2)Xc = (r1+2r2)Xc=1.44/f Lets make r1 = 1k ohms = (1+2r2)Xc=1.44/0.010 = (1+2r2)Xc=144000 = (1+2r2)=144000/c Lets make c=10uf =2r2=(144000/10)-1 =2r2=14399 R2=7199.5 ohms or 7k1.995 So - For the circuit I want these are the values- R1=1k ohms R2=7k1.995 c=10uf Trouble is 7k1.995 isnt viable value as no resistor is solely this If I use in series 5 1k ohm resistors and a 2k2 ohm one , which are viable values I get pretty close-7k2ohms which is good enough as resistor values arent necessarily totally accurate anyhow..eg note tolerances.you could just use a 100k pot as r2 if you want but I want it accurate and know it is. So finally we use these values- R1=1k ohm R2=7k2 ohms(=1k ohm x5,2k2 ohm x1) c=10uf ...

Joe Hagin, CEO of Jet Support Services Inc. and former White House Deputy Chief of Staff, discusses the real business benefits of small planes: "These planes are really business tools; it's like a blackberry or software, they're expensive, but they add huge value. ...The bottom line is, these companies need these tools to compete in the global marketplace." to learn more about NPNG, please visit noplanenogain.org

the homebuilt market, offering pilots more performance, freedom, and value than anything previously seen. The prototype exhibited such advancement that it is now displayed at the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Museum in Oshkosh, WI. Neibauer, inundated by market interest, quit his job as a graphic designer and started his first aircraft company. The Lancair team became synonymous with innovative aircraft, including the Lancair 320/360, whose unprecedented design and ...

Lance Neibauer Describes the Journey that Revolutionized Aircraft Design After graduating with a BFA degree in 1971, Lance Neibauer began a career as a graphic designer; his love for aviation, however, was never far from his mind. Having grown up exposed to aircraft at an early age (his uncle, Ray Betzoldt, produced aircraft for Al Meyers), Neibauer loved flying, but most aircraft designs didnt appeal to his aesthetic eye. As composite structures began to emerge in the late 1970s, his ...

making idle comments. In the early hours of NBAA 2008, HBC announced Brazilian-based L�der Signatures SA had ordered 23 aircraft spanning the Hawker Beechcraft product line. L�der, a Hawker Beechcraft dealer and authorized service center since 1996, purchased what is considered to be one of the largest general aviation aircraft orders in Brazilian history with a value estimated at nearly 0 million. The contract was officially signed by L�der CEO Eduardo de Pereira Vaz at NBAA. "L�der ...

Sporty Plane Makes Public Debut Startup light-sport aircraft manufacturer ICON unveiled its original prototype aircraft at Oshkosh during a media-only reception Sunday, ahead of yesterday's scheduled public unveiling Monday morning at 10:30 AM on AeroShell Square. As ANN has reported, the A5 is an amphibious two seat aircraft which touts a wing design that folds back at a flip of the switch. This takes about 20 seconds to accomplish and allows for ease of transportation on the road as well as ...
