Abstract: A flight planning system for obtaining flight plans and/or weather information is provided with a portable computer having a display unit, keyboard, memory, built in modem and a built in disk drive that can be connected via telephone lines to a ground based data center. The basic flight planning data and/or weather request data is input in response to menu driven prompts and reviewed on the display by the pilot. The portable computer is then connected to the data center which generates a series of optimized flight plans and provides desired weather information. After the desired flight plan and/or weather information has been selected by the pilot, it is loaded onto a floppy disk in the disk drive. The aircraft is provided with a data transfer unit which accepts the floppy disk and downloads the flight plan and requested weather information into the onboard computerized navigation system. In addition the aircraft is provided with a VHF radio system for inflight communication with the data center so that the flight plan and/or weather information can be updated.

Abstract: A static low tire pressure detection system for detecting the presence of a low tire mounted on a structural member of an aircraft, such as a bogie beam or nose axle, includes a pair of inclinometers mounted on the structural member and adapted to sense the bend therein. The signals from the inclinometers are stored in a memory once the aircraft is at rest on the ground to provide reference signals indicating the angle of the structural member with respect to an inertial reference and the weight carried thereby. The reference signals are compared against later-developed signals representing instantaneous angle and weight on the structural member to develop difference signals. The difference signals are used to generate an indication of tire pressurization, which is then checked to determine whether the tire pressurization is within acceptable limits. If the tire pressure is outside of the acceptable limits, then an indicating device is energized to provide a warning of a potentially dangerous condition to the aircraft operating personnel.

Abstract: A method of determining the alignment of a first transducer mounting surface relative to a second transducer mounting surface includes utilizing a laser in conjunction with first and second precision ground fixtures secured to the first and second transducer mounting surfaces, respectively. An optically flat mirror is carried by each of the fixtures, with the mirror of the first fixture being partially light-transmissive. The incident light beam from the laser is directed at the partially light-transmissive mirror which, in turn, reflects part of the incident beam to form a first reflected beam. The remaining portion of the incident beam is transmitted and is reflected by the other mirror to form a second reflected beam. The two beams reflected by the mirrors are projected upon a screen disposed in front of the laser, such screen having an aperture through which the incident beam passes. The position of the laser and screen is adjusted so that the reflected beam from one of the mirrors falls at a predetermined location on the screen. The horizontal and vertical distances on the screen of the reflected beams from the incident beam are measured and are used in an equation to determine the angular alignment of the transducer mounting surfaces relative to one another.

Abstract: A flexure in a transducer such as an inertial guidance accelerometer for suspending a force sensitive element to a mounting base includes a reduced thickness central portion and a pair of relatively thick ribs disposed on opposite sides of the central portion. An electrically conductive coating is disposed on at least one face of the central portion to provide electrical connections to components located on the element. The reduced thickness of the central portion minimizes errors caused by stresses in the interface between the conductive coating and the element and the relatively thick ribs provide a desired strength and spring rate for the element suspension.

Abstract: An improved capacitive pick-off circuit is provided by utilizing an operational amplifier wherein a pick-off capacitor to be measured forms a part of a feedback circuit of the operational amplifier resulting in the gain of the operational amplifier becoming inversely proportional to the capacitance or directly proportional to the gap between the plates of the capacitor thereby providing a measure of capacitance. A differential capacitive pick-off circuit is implemented by using a pair of operational amplifiers wherein feedback circuits controlling the gain of the operational amplifiers include pick-off capacitors to be measured and a third differential amplifier is connected to the outputs of the two operational amplifiers to provide a signal representing the difference in capacitance between the two pick-off capacitors.

A film of oil is deposited on the underside of said tape with the surplus mist, in part, condensing on the inside of the hood and dropping to the floor of the plenum chamber where both the condensed oil and the balance of the surplus mist is evacuated to prevent escape into the surrounding facilities.
