How to Track Local Airplanes with Raspberry Pi Before you get started, make sure that you have your Raspberry Pi OS set up. If you haven’t done this before see our article on how toset up a Raspberry Pifor the first time or how to do aheadless Raspberry Pi install(without the keyboa...
Contrary to the original film, which boosted the careers of the fledging Earth, Wind, and Fire, the soundtrack instrumentation here is surprisingly traditional and sentimental. The Portrait of the Artist can rarely be a Portrait of a Nice Guy and "Baadasssss!" beautifully and honestly shows why...

The bottom line is this: Plane crashes happen. Airlines suffer from safety problems and budget airlines aren't more susceptible to them than other airlines. To read more about airplanes and other flight related topics, follow the links on the next page....
Like the others, it's based on ADS-B technology, an acronym that stands for "Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast." Airplanes have devices called transponders, which transmit data to air traffic control including altitude, speed, heading and more. Unlike the others, it does not censor...
Most airplanes have two flap settings approved for landing, and in most cases, full flaps are used. Using a lower flap setting is the prerogative of the pilots, but can help reduce fuel burn thanks to the lower drag created, and can reduce the aircraft's noise footprint. Lower flap setti...
The future of mobility is electric cars, trucks and airplanes. But there is no way a single battery design can power that future. Even your cell phone and laptop batteries have different requirements and different designs. The batteries we will need over the next few decades will have to be...
Hot air balloons had been deployed by the military for more than a century to get a bird’s-eye view of the battlefield, including during the U.S.Civil War, but the fixed-wing airplanes of World War I were able to fly deep behind enemy lines to track troops movements and map terrain...
scientists have constructed a simple electronic model of a frog’s eyes which can track airplanes circling above an airport and then provide information to computer-run air traffic control systems. Someday such electronic eyes may provide the means to automatically guide automobiles by providing inform...
