IF YOU ARE AN SUAS OPERATOR, FAA IS PROPOSING CHANGES TO MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS UNDER “Inspection Programs for Single-Engine Turbine-Powered Airplanes and Unmanned Aircraft; and Miscellaneous Maintenance-Related Updates”

Small Unmanned Aircraft System (sUAS) | Environmental Health and Safety |  Washington University in St. Louis

Excerpt from the Summary:

“ For unmanned aircraft, including unmanned aircraft operating under 14 CFR part 135 that are authorized to use the inspection rules in part 91, this proposal would enable the selection of either an inspection program recommended by the manufacturer or a program established by the registered owner or operator and approved by the Administrator. The FAA believes this change would enhance safety and would provide unmanned and single-engine turbine- powered aircraft owners and operators with greater flexibility with aircraft maintenance. Additionally, for aircraft operating under part 91, subpart K, fractional ownership rules, the FAA proposes to lengthen the reporting interval for aircraft mechanical reliability reports from 72 to 96 hours and to allow electronic report submissions. This would align the reporting interval requirement with those found in other regulations (e.g., 14 CFR 121.703, 135.415, and 145.221). Finally, the FAA proposes several changes to clarify and simplify various maintenance-related regulations in areas that have confusing or ambiguous.”

GA-ASI Demonstrates A2E Concept with AFSOC

GA-ASI DEMONSTRATES A2E CONCEPT WITH AFSOC

SAN DIEGO – 05 January 2024 – During a series of demonstrations in December 2023, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) and the U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) worked collaboratively to execute several capability demonstrations as part of the Adaptive Airborne Enterprise (A2E) concept development.

The first demo featured the simultaneous control of three MQ-9A remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) by a single crew using the government-owned AFSOC RPA Control Suite (ARCS). ARCS adds additional capability to the Ground Control Station (GCS), by allowing a standard crew to control multiple UAS platforms. The second demo showed that an MQ-9A can launch a Altius 600 from a launch pod.

“We have established a great partnership with AFSOC,” said David R. Alexander, president of GA-ASI. “We know our RPA will be a key building block for AFSOC to achieve its A2E vision.”

AFSOC is acquiring MQ-9B from GA-ASI for rapid prototyping and will forego a traditional GCS to control the RPA. Rather, AFSOC intends to control both the MQ-9A and MQ-9B aircraft, as well as a family of small UAS, from the ARCS. This event demonstrated the viability of ARCS to control the MQ-9A platform, which will lay the foundation for future work to integrate the MQ-9B aircraft into ARCS. This event also demonstrated the viability to operate the MQ-9 platform as surrogates for small UAS, all of which will be controlled by ARCS.

“These demonstrations were what we needed to really start to make A2E a reality,” said AFSOC Col. Trey Olman. “This was the first time we were able to demonstrate control of multiple RPAs from a single workstation, which is important in reducing manpower requirements.”

The A2E demonstrations took place at Cannon Air Force Base, N.M. and Melrose Air Force Range (MAFR), N.M., and utilized Satellite Communications (SATCOM) Launch & Recovery (SLR). AFSOC launched the three MQ-9As using GA-ASI’s Portable Aircraft Control Stations (PACS) and Ground Control Stations. Once airborne, control for the three MQ-9A was handed from the three GCS to a single ARCS workstation. Control of all three aircraft was handed back from ARCS to each GCS and the three aircraft performed SATCOM landings via GA-ASI’s Automatic Takeoff and Landing Capability (ATLC).

The A2E concept envisions AFSOC projecting air power from beyond the horizon, using a family of large, unmanned aircraft along with small, expendable UAS, from permissive to denied environments. MQ-9B is the ideal platform for inserting air-launched effects into potentially hostile environments. The MQ-9B’s combination of range, endurance, reduced manpower footprint, and overall flexibility will key to AFSOC’s future family of advanced UAS systems.

Celebrate National Chili Day by Making Hi Mountain Seasonings’ Famous Chili

Celebrate National Chili Day by Making Hi Mountain Seasonings’ Famous Chili

RIVERTON, Wyo. (Feb. 5, 2024) — There is nothing better to eat on a cold winter’s day than a fiery fare of Hi Mountain Seasonings chili. This dish is equally fitting this time of year because National Chili Day falls smack in the middle of the coldest time of the year. This “day of chili” is celebrated annually on the fourth Thursday of February – February 22nd this year.

National Chili Day was created in 2006 by Rich Kelly, the owner of the Hard Times Café in Arlington, TX. Since then, it has spread across America and is celebrated annually at potlucks and cookoffs that chili lovers take very seriously. Hi Mountain Seasonings Chili seasoning, a zesty blend of authentic flavors including chili pepper, cumin, garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, turmeric and onion, has become so popular that the company’s own chili recipe is printed on its label. This mouthwatering recipe is easy to make and can be prepared with game or store-bought meat.
Chili warms you inside and out, it’s filling, easy to make, and nutritious. So, as the temperatures drop and National Chili Day approaches, warm yourself, your family, and your friends up with a bowl of delicious Hi Mountain Seasonings’ scrumptious chili. The HMS Chili Seasoning is available in a 7.4 oz bottle for a suggested retail price of $10.99. You can get your secret ingredient to make a batch of hearty, rich HMS chili by visiting
https://himtnjerky.com/ or visiting a retailer nearby.

A Side of Trivia to Go with Your Chili
*A green chili pod has as much vitamin C as six oranges.
*Some cultures put chili powder in their shoes to keep their feet warm.
*The first chili cook-off occurred in 1967 in Terlingua, Texas, a border town about 400 miles west of Chili’s alleged birthplace, San Antonio. It ended in a tie between a native Texan and a New Yorker, but chili cook-offs are still held there today.
*Hot chili peppers burn calories by triggering a thermodynamic burn in the body, which speeds up the metabolism.
*Chili pepper color is a function of ripeness. Green peppers are usually not fully ripe, and the same pepper could be green, yellow, orange, or red, depending on its level of ripeness.
*According to Wikipedia, the first documented recipe for chili con carne is dated September 2, 1519.

Hi Mountain Seasonings Chili Recipe
Ingredients
11/2 lbs. ground beef or venison
6 Tbsp. Hi Mountain Chili Seasoning
1 medium onion
1 can diced tomatoes
2 cups of your favorite salsa
1 16oz. can dark red kidney beans (drained)
2 16 oz. cans of chili beans (pinto beans in chili sauce)
Instructions
Cook meat on medium/low with diced onion and Hi Mountain Chili Seasoning until pink is gone. Add the remaining ingredients. Simmer on low, stirring occasionally. Simmer at least one hour before serving.

SHOT SHOW 2024 : OUTDOOR EDGE RAZOR VX Series “Never Sharpen Your Blade Again.”

20240123_094202

While at Shot Show 2024, I spent some quality time with Outdoor Edge. The company is the leader in replaceable blade knives and a trusted source for quality outdoor knives and tools. They have an edged offering for any occasion; if you’re a hunter or outdoorsman, you’ll find everything you need at Outdoor Edge, and it won’t break the bank. They recently announced the Razor VX EDC folder which has a replaceable blade, but what intrigued me most was their claim that you’ll never need to sharpen your knife again.

ANOKA, Minn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Revelyst, a collective of world-class maker brands that design and manufacture performance gear and precision technologies, today announced an update on its GEAR Up transformation initiative. Revelyst, a segment of Vista Outdoor Inc. (NYSE: VSTO), is in the process of separating into a standalone public company, with an expected execution date later this year. As part of this process, Revelyst is working to unlock its potential by directing resources to better meet consumer demand, synergizing and prioritizing strength in supply chain, and doubling down on the equity and innovation of the company’s industry-leading brands.

Revelyst launched GEAR Up in the fiscal third quarter, quickly actioning the plan to simplify the company’s business model, deliver increased efficiency and profitability from that simplified structure, and reinvest in its highest potential brands to accelerate growth and transformation. These actions are in motionand will have an estimated $100 million of realized annual cost savings by fiscal year 2027. This is in addition to the previously announced $50 million cost restructuring program, of which $25 million in savings was specifically related to Revelyst, for a total of $125 million in expected run-rate cost savings.

The company continues to make progress on GEAR Up and is executing against the previously outlined goals. GEAR Up actions announced today include:

Expanding select roles to take on cross-brand scope as the company identifies synergies across each platform.

Bringing together teams at dedicated platform locations to drive the culture necessary to achieve brand goals.

Eliminating duplicative roles as the platforms consolidate.

As part of these measures, the company will close offices in Petaluma, California; Overland Park, Kansas; Eagle, Colorado; and Madison, Mississippi. Revelyst is consolidating teams across core locations, including:

The Adventure Sports platform, led by Jeff McGuane, will consolidate in Irvine, California.

The Outdoor Performance platform, led by Jordan Judd, will consolidate in Bozeman, Montana.

And the Precision Sports and Technology platform, led by Jon Watters and Scott Werbelow, will consolidate in San Diego.

“While our business is stable, headwinds exist, and we need to make changes to grow and meet the financial plans we’ve established and believe in,” said Eric Nyman, CEO of Revelyst. “Our bold and decisive actions to unlock the potential for Revelyst have us on the right path. Previous ways of working need to be challenged and adjusted to position us to where we aspire to be.

“The decisions to close offices and reduce headcount aren’t taken lightly, and though they are intended to position us for the future, we understand that they are difficult in the immediate,” Nyman continued. “I have incredible confidence in our ability to transition through this and gain strength because of it. GEAR Up is an integral component for transforming Revelyst into the world’s No. 1 house of brands.”

Platform Overview

Precision Sports and Technology: Foresight Sports and Bushnell Golf

Adventure Sports: Fox Racing, Bell Helmets, Giro Sport Design, CamelBak, QuietKat Electric Bikes, Blackburn and more.

Outdoor Performance: Simms Fishing Products, Bushnell, Blackhawk, Stone Glacier, Camp Chef, Primos and more.

Mühldorf, 24-02-02

The increasing importance of online product searches in a networked world – ODU Product Finder as an innovative solution

In recent years, the digital transformation has not only affected and changed the B2C market, but also the B2B sector. One of the most notable changes is the increasing importance of online product search engines. Companies are increasingly looking for efficient and time-saving methods to find business partners and suppliers and to evaluate products and services. In this context, online product search is rapidly gaining relevance in the B2B sector, as it not only speeds up searches but also facilitates access to global markets.

As a leading international manufacturer of connectors, ODU recognizes the need to support traditional product search methods while also continuously investing in the further development of the ODU Product Finder, ODU’s online search engine.

Interview with Dominic Krieg, Digital Product Management Expert at ODU

1. What needs does the ODU Product Finder fulfil for your users?

Our Online Product Finder enables users to find the right product in just a few clicks. The processing of the wide range of variants using filter criteria makes the search considerably easier compared to conventional catalogues. Our users can not only call up concise product information, but also configure product variants themselves. The integration of 3D data for download rounds off the offering. The result is a comprehensive, efficient and user-friendly product search process.

2. How has the use of online product portals developed over time, and what trends or changes have you observed?

The use of online product portals has increased significantly over time. Digital search options have been further developed so that they not only enable efficient product searches, but also increasingly focus on personalized user experiences and comprehensive data accessibility. The ongoing trend shows an increased integration of design data, a broader product range and an increased focus on user-friendly, intuitive search functions to meet the growing demands of users.

3. What future developments are you planning for your ODU Product Finder in order to further enhance the users’ experience?

We are planning to continuously expand the availability of product information, extend the cable assembly portfolio and constantly develop the guided search to improve intuitive use. Despite different entry options, the user should be able to find the right product immediately. In this way, we want to maximise user-friendliness and guarantee outstanding product and service quality.

4. What type of users particularly benefit from your ODU Product Finder?

Our ODU Product Finder is aimed at purchasers, design engineers and product managers, among others. The variety of functions offered, such as 3D data for designers and data sheets for purchasers and product managers, enables needs-orientated use. We see the access without login and the user’s freedom to decide which contact information to disclose as additional advantages.

5. How do you integrate user feedback into the further development of your ODU Product Finder, and what role does customer feedback play in improving your digital offering?

Our Product Finder is a dynamic tool that continuously takes into account both internal and external feedback. Customer feedback plays a central role in identifying areas for improvement. We actively encourage users to try out the tool and share their feedback with us. We would be delighted if you could try our Product Finder for yourself at https://odu-connectors.com/find-your-product/

GA-ASI Demonstrates Release of A2LE from MQ-20 Avenger UAS

GA-ASI Demonstrates Release of A2LE from MQ-20 Avenger UAS | General Atomics

GA-ASI DEMONSTRATES RELEASE OF A2LE FROM MQ-20 AVENGER® UAS

SAN DIEGO – 01 February 2024 – General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) successfully demonstrated an inflight release of its Advanced Air-Launched Effects (A2LE) platform, releasing an A2LE from the internal weapons bay of a GA-ASI MQ-20 Avenger® Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS). The demonstration took place on Nov. 28, 2023, over Dugway Proving Ground, Utah, capping a manufacturing, structural test, and flight demonstration.

GA-ASI’s design and engineering team partnered with Divergent Technologies, Inc. for the A2LE vehicle design and build, matching GA-ASI’s aircraft design expertise with the Divergent Adaptive Production System (DAPS™) to support rapid, low-cost manufacturing of the demonstration vehicle.

“This demonstration was a crucial first step in demonstrating GA-ASI’s ability to rapidly develop, manufacture, and test a Small Unmanned Aircraft System (SUAS) in a controlled, low-risk approach,” said Mike Atwood, vice president of Advanced Programs at GA-ASI. “A2LE demonstrates the coupling of GA-ASI’s pedigreed aircraft design capabilities with Divergent’s DAPS, paving the way for continued maturation of affordable, modular SUAS platforms that can be tailored to meet warfighter needs at a fraction of the cost and lead time of currently fielded systems.”

The demonstration vehicle airframe was 100 percent additively manufactured and was designed to meet the captive carriage and ejection loads of the jet-powered aircraft with internal weapons bays. The topology-optimized AM structure was validated via proof and pit ejection testing prior to the flight demonstration. The demonstration highlighted the design efficiencies that can be realized when AM is incorporated early in the design process and throughout the vehicle. It was also a key step in validating the AM process and material properties for incorporation in future systems to be employed by both manned and unmanned platforms.

GA-ASI’s A2LE platform builds on its extensive experience in developing SUAS. It provides a low-risk, low-cost, tailorable solution that bring affordable mass to the warfighter, with modular payload provisions to meet the requirements of current and future mission objectives. A network of A2LEs could create a persistent, expansive grid for surveillance, attack, enemy air defense suppression, or communication pathways, supporting and elevating capabilities of current and future manned or unmanned platforms.

MKS Announces Ophir BeamSquared SP204S M2 Beam Propagation Analyzer at Photonics West

MKS Announces Ophir BeamSquared® SP204S M2 Beam Propagation Analyzer, a CMOS-based System that Measures CW and Pulsed Lasers in Less than One Minute

January 30, 2024 – Andover, MA – MKS Instruments, Inc. (NASDAQ: MKSI), a global provider of enabling technologies that transform our world, has announced the Ophir® BeamSquared® SP204S M2 beam propagation analyzer at SPIE’s Photonics West 2024. The BSQ SP204S is a robust, portable device that helps users optimize laser performance automatically and accurately. It measures the propagation characteristics of CW and pulsed lasers with Rayleigh length up to 20 meters in less than one minute. The system uses CMOS camera technology to deliver higher spatial resolution, better sampling accuracy, and improved SNR (signal to noise ratio) than CCD-based cameras. Designed for continuous use applications, from scientific research to laser manufacturing to fabrication and machining, the BSQ SP204S measures wavelengths from 266nm to 10.6µm, including CO2 and terahertz.

“Laser manufacturers and system integrators rely on fast and accurate caustic measurements in order to understand the laser beam’s quality, or focusability,” said Reuven Silverman, General Manager, Ophir Photonics. “The use of CMOS technology in the BeamSquared SP204S beam propagation analyzer brings a new level of performance across all levels of measurement. This includes increased sensitivity, reduced smearing effect, improved performance at all caustic parameters, and higher accuracy in NIR wavelengths. This means users can measure smaller beam sizes more accurately. The system is also ISO 11146 compliant, so users can trust the data.”

Ophir BeamSquared® SP204S M2 Beam Propagation Analyzer, a CMOS-based System that Measures CW and Pulsed Lasers in Less than One Minute

The BeamSquared SP204S M2 system includes the BeamSquared software, an optical train, and a CMOS camera. The software measures beam propagation characteristics on both the X and Y axes, including waist diameters, full angle divergences, waist locations, Rayleigh lengths, M2 or K and BPP factors, astigmatism, and asymmetry. The system displays 2D or 3D beam profiles for visual verification of beam behavior through focus. Functions include a 3D slice display and the ability to add 3D displays to reports.
