Tests carried out on 18 pilots at Stanford university found those given the Alzheimer's disease drug Aricept for 30 days were better able to retain complex aviation tasks learnt on a simulator than those given placebos.

#Edge-of-space planes to free-up congested skies Making predictions about the future of aviation is dangerous;
Few in aviation's golden age could have foreseen how cheap flying would become; in 1939 a Transatlantic airline ticket cost up to $90,
and nowhere will the impact be greater than in aviation. By the year 2050, the world's population may have risen to 10 billion, with 75%of them living in cities.
New materials and new engine technology will continue to make aviation more efficient. Plane designs will make more use of carbon composites and, in the future, carbon nanofibres.
British aerospace flew an aircraft remotely to Inverness in Scotland this summer in a Civil aviation Authority-supported experiment.
The best bio fuel for aviation is probably butanol, an alcohol which behaves very like the kerosene that the jet engines of today use.
as a result of Congress failing to back reforms proposed by the Federal Aviation Authority#after a very famous air traffic controllers strike more than 25 years ago.#
The United states Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) and the European Aviation safety Agency (EASA) have shown also interest in the technology
#FLY-BAG CHALLENGE#Innovative bombproof luggage container to improve aviation safety Engineers are continually working on new ways to improve aviation safety,
which helped bring together an international team of manufacturing, material and aviation engineers. The diversity of industries and partners highlights that the Fly-Bag project is an example of cross-fertilisation among large research centres,
As well as speaking to various airlines, Zangani and his team are currently finalising the certification process that will allow the deployment of the Fly-Bag in the aviation sector.
parachute-shaped"sea anchor"to slow down a drifting ship and put it in a better position for rescue and recovery operations.
At the end of the chain is a 30-metre-wide sea anchor that opens under water like a parachute both slowing down the drifting ship and turning it 90 degrees.
The first step would be funding to update the Boeing/North american Aviation studies done in the 1970s.
though, the VC200 comes equipped with a parachute. Recently a prototype of the VC200 took to the skies for its first series of test flights.
With the FAA and other civil aviation authorities moving toward policies that allow for the commercial operation of drones in civilian airspace,
And in 2012, GE Aviation was formed from the acquisition of Morris Technologies as the company wanted to learn more about additive manufacturing.
which helps it to learn how to develop the more difficult or traditionally expensive parts for aviation, oil and gas, healthcare,
Furstoss said by 2020, the company aims to print more than 100,000 parts for aviation. In the meantime, the company continues to focus on transforming its repair processes for industrial components.
The sudden ballooning also amplified quantum fluctuations into clumps of matter that went on to seed the first stars,
and return to Earth using a parachute to slow its decent through the atmosphere about 8 days later.
In cases where images with greater resolution are needed the pair plan to use aerial imagery from drones provided local aviation and privacy laws permit.
The current version of Dragon deploys a parachute as it descends and splashes down in the ocean.
Until recently NASA had used parachutes and airbags for most robotic landings on Mars starting with the Viking mission in 1976.
which combined parachutes with landing gear powered by retrorockets that could lower the rover to the surface on tethers.
Such weight can't be slowed adequately by parachutes in the Martian air which is just 1 per cent as dense as Earth's. Unfortunately rocket-powered landings are out of the question too as the atmosphere is still just thick enough to buffet incoming spacecraft with more turbulence than thrusters can accommodate.
and a giant parachute twice the size of Curiosity's. The decelerator would attach to the outer rim of a capsule-like entry vehicle.
and moments later the parachute will fire. The saucer should gently splash down in open water.
supersonic aviation. It could enable an aircraft to fly anywhere in the world in under four hours says Bond.
#U s army Wants A Parachuting Tank After years of service in wars--from Iraq to Afghanistan to Iraq again--the Humvee is on its way out.
But maybe a simple parachute could slow them down enough for a safe landing Sunspiral says.
The result of a collaboration between South africa's Aerosud aviation firm and the Paramount Group, the AHRLAC is designed as a cheap alternative to the big name in military surveillance right now:

Once renovations are complete Hangar One will again be home to high-tech innovation as Planetary Ventures begins using the historic facility for research development assembly and testing in the areas of space exploration aviation rover
Interglobe Aviation, which runs the Indigo airline, is seeking a $400 million listing. Analysts warn more uncertainty is given in store the US Federal reserve is expected to raise interest rates as early as September,
"In accordance with space and aviation regimen, we can't immediately make a manned launch."
The new technology may hold promise for many applications such as for jewelry, automotive interior trim, aviation, signage, colored keypads, wearable and electronic displays.
Race for the skies Other companies are already working to make the supersonic business-aviation market a reality.
where general aviation begins. It plans to shoot autonomous drones along 10 mi (16 km) long skyways at 50 mph (80.5 km h) with packages weighing up to 55 lb (25 kg) in tow.
Daimler likens the system to the autopilot used in aviation, in that the driver must be prepared to take control at any time.

but also in other major industries such as automotive and aviation. Joseph M. Desimone, professor of chemistry at UNC-Chapel hill and of chemical engineering at N c. State, is currently CEO of Carbon3d where he co-invented the method with colleagues Alex Ermoshkin, chief technology officer
The new technology may hold promise for many applications such as for jewelry, automotive interior trim, aviation, signage, colored keypads, electronics and wearable displays s
Joby Aviation is building an ambitious aircraft: A personal craft that can lift off vertically, fly 200 miles and land vertically, all on battery power.
The plane was designed by Shenyang Aerospace University and Liaoning general aviation academy in the northeastern Liaoning Province.
The first two aircrafts were delivered to Liaoning Ruixiang General aviation Co. Ltd on Thursday. The aircraft can be used in pilot training
#Sweet source for aviation biofuel Researchers have identified a new way to produce aviation fuel from sugarcane biomass that could deliver substantial cuts in greenhouse gas emissions.
The search for aviation biofuels broke on to the public stage in the late 2000s
"Prof Bell said that the process to make the aviation biofuel outlined in his team's paper would use waste biomass to generate the energy required operate the refinery,
drop in biofuel on its Falcon 20 jet, according to oilprice. com, marking a huge milestone for the aviation and renewable energy industries.
naming her after aviation pioneer Amelia Earhart. In the wake of the media frenzy that greeted the announcement,
The process was developed originally for aviation, where it is expected to enable airplane wings to self heal in flight.
although the chemicals were developed for aviation, he could ertainly envisage how similar technology could be appliedto cellphones and other items.
While the Bristol researchers have focused on aviation, a hungry consumer tech industry is expected to take it on.
In aviation, which is the focus of the Bristol project, the opportunity is enormous: wings that develop minute cracks would instantly begin to self repair in flight, increasing safety and cutting maintenance times.
You can either grab a parachute and bail out, or you can plug in your headphones and keep watching the in-flight Hollywood entertainment,
Welcome to the future of naval aviation fleets of unmanned helicopters flying on and off warships conducting missions as diverse as missile strikes
"While the Bristol researchers have focused on aviation, a hungry consumer tech industry is expected to take it on.
Solving the problem is not so simple, especially with regards to aviation the source of two-percent of the annual greenhouse gas emissions from human activity.
Ours is the first process to generate true drop in aviation biofuels. Scown cites the Intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC) on the importance of drop in aviation biofuels. n a 2014 report
