Military scientists have been always trying to use technology to overcome the limitations of the human nature in the battlefield. But until the invention of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAV) all new inventions depended on manpower. As Vietnam was called a helicopter war, with excessive use of drones we may call Iraq and Afghanistan war as a UAV war (Wilson, 2015). As air support became crucial for every military operation, even in counterterrorism air support is the huge advantage against the insurgents. Currently

maneuverable video and photography at the touch of a button. If you have been paying attention, one of the latest crazes in advertisement is aerial videography. At first, you many wonder how they would get helicopters into such a tight places to acquire the footage you are viewing. Well, it’s not a helicopter that is being utilized; it’s a Quad Copter Drone. These unique remote controlled devices are taking the world by storm, being utilized as everything from a hobby to an intricate aerial photography

Pros Search and Rescue The first and quite possibly the single most important reason for the use of a drone is its ability to aid in search and rescue operations. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles or UAV’s can search a 200-acre parcel of land or wooded area in less than 20 minutes. This type of search would be the main difference between life and death for a missing person. UAV’s could also be used to search for poachers on large animal or protected animal reservations thus being an asset to the forestry

“Thank You Ma’am” is an American short story written by Langston Hughes. The story was published in 1958; however, some people, including me, seem to believe that it was written in the 1930’s due to the racial undertones (www.americanliterature.com 1). Also, Langston wrote many of his short stories in the 1930’s. In the story, a boy named Roger tries to steal a purse from what seems to be a large, African American, elderly lady named Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones. When Roger reaches out and

Effect of Helicopter Parents “No Escape from ‘Helicopter Parents’” by Felix Carroll discusses the problem that baby boomers are becoming over-protective of their children and are not letting them live independently. Carroll tells about helicopter parents to make the point that children of baby boomers are being suffocated by their parents.

people have an ironic secret: “they manage time less and pay attention more.” (The Rest of God ,2006) During one of our extended winter vacations in Texas, I was invited to ride in the co-pilot’s seat and shadow my son-in-law Larry in his work as a helicopter pilot. For the two days, I became part of a crew

The helicopter pilots, in general, are required to be skillful in operations on both improved and unimproved surfaces. During normal or slope takeoffs and landings with some degree of bank angle or side drift with one skid or wheel on the ground causes the helicopter to roll. When the rollover happens, the lateral cyclic control response becomes more sluggish and less effective than for a hovering helicopter. Consequently, if a roll rate is permitted to develop, a critical bank angle may be reached

The eruption of the Korean War brought the abrupt requirement for the expansion of aviation. Helicopters and the Army were very limited in their capabilities, acquisitions of aircraft, laws in place, and industry could not keep up with the demand. These limitations ultimately were overcome because the need was required during the war. Army Aviation saw expansions of their force structure and how operations were conducted on the battlefield. The Aviation Center at Fort Rucker, Alabama was created
