Conceptual of the ADS-B system, illustrating radio links between aircraft, ground station and satellite. Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast (ADS-B) is an aviation surveillance technology and form of electronic conspicuity in which an aircraft determines its position via satellite navigation or other sensors and periodically broadcasts its position and other related data, enabling it ...
Upon interrogation, Mode S transponders transmit information about the aircraft to the SSR system, to TCAS receivers on board aircraft and to the ADS-B SSR system. This information includes the call sign of the aircraft and/or the aircraft's permanent ICAO 24-bit address (which is represented for human interface purposes as six hexadecimal ...
By May 2006, Limbach had produced more than 6000 engines. [2] The engines are certified according to CS-22 Subpart H [3] for use in motorgliders, CS-LSA [4] and CS-VLA [5] type of aircraft. Most Limbach engines are based on the Volkswagen flat-4 boxer unit with displacement of up to 2.4 liters, and up to 160 BHP in the turbocharged model.
RB145R engine Top view, showing the air intake for the two fuselage lift engines. Both Heinkel (based on Heinkel He 231) [7] [8] and Messerschmitt (Messerschmitt Me X1-21) [9] [10] had developed designs to meet the requirements of VTOL flight and by 1959, the two companies, along with Bölkow, had created a joint venture company, called EWR, to develop and manufacture an envisioned supersonic ...

A LTV XC-142 experimental V/STOL aircraft.. An experimental aircraft is an aircraft intended for testing new aerospace technologies and design concepts.. The term research aircraft or testbed aircraft, by contrast, generally denotes aircraft modified to perform scientific studies, such as weather research or geophysical surveying, similar to a research vessel.
An airworthiness directive (commonly abbreviated as AD) is a notification to owners and operators of certified aircraft that a known safety deficiency with a particular model of aircraft, engine, avionics or other system exists and must be corrected. [1] [2]
The engines are all carburetor-equipped, feature dual magneto ignition and have a displacement of 233 cubic inches (3.82 L). The first O-235 model was certified on 11 February 1942. [2] The O-235 was developed into the lighter-weight Lycoming IO-233 engine for light sport aircraft. [3]
