RC Helicopter vs RC Planes
RC Helicopter vs RC Planes by Greg Haehl
Since RC Helicopter flying takes every kids and kids at heart to the closest experience of flying a real helicopter it is undoubtedly thrilling and exciting experience. In terms if RC Helicopter sizes - here you can trim down your choices into gas electric mini micro and toy.But in the case you want to upgrade to ultralight you can easily get familiar with flying since you have already been with an engined-helicopter.
If you prefer building model helicopter for your personal gallery. Just follow the entire manual to the 't' Do not get all excited when the heli is all put together you still have many hours of configuring / balancing / and adjusting everything. Homebuilt RC Helicopters are motorized (although wit less power) and can lift you off from the ground with the same experience you can get from a conventional full-size helicopter.
What kind of engines do RC Helicopters run on? Special remote control RC Helicopter engines. They come in 2-stroke and 4-stroke glow burning engines as well as 2 stroke gasoline models. If you descend to quickly you will enter your own down wash and the RC Helicopter will pull itself into the ground and need considerable collective to compensate. This is a bad condition. Model enthusiasts are notably quick to emulate full-size aviation achievements, but were not as successful with rotary wing aircraft, and it was not until 1968 that the first fully controllable R/C model helicopter appeared, built by Dr. Dieter Schluter of West Germany.

Buying and Selling Bell Helicopters
Buying and Selling Bell Helicopters by Wain Roy
Anyone who is even remotely associated with the aircraft industry is likely to have heard about the Bell helicopters. This is one name which has thoroughly enjoyed its share of popularity for a time longer than any other of its like. Bell Helicopter Textron, as the full name goes, is one of the biggest helicopter and tilt-rotor manufacturers in the world. This Bell division of Textron, Inc. produces copters both for civil and defense purposes. And since 1946-47, Bell has produced over 30,000 helicopters.
It all started when Arthur Young, a gifted helicopter inventor, caught Larry Bell’s attention. Now Larry Bell was a reputed entrepreneur, who founded the Bell Aircraft Corporation. When Bell saw Young’s talents, he soon teamed up with him in 1941 and thereafter Bell never looked back. What was already gaining popularity as an estimable aircraft manufacturer started getting attention as a good helicopter maker as well. By 1951, Bell was flying high on the wings of success, creating history worldwide. Once Bell Aircraft Corporation earned a fair name as a trusted helicopter builder, it set up its helicopter division headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas.
So a name as reliable as its products surely has a high value when it comes to buying and selling helicopters. For one thing, the helicopter business has its own challenges. A lot of market research and evaluation go into fixing the best deal. If you are to buy or sell a helicopter, you may find yourself groping where to start. To make the task easy, there are many marketing agents who are ready to serve all your helicopter needs. Some of them particularly specialize in the purchase and sale of Bell helicopters. They do all the necessary market study, assess the selling condition of your helicopter, suggest a price for it and then distribute the information across the globe with their networking. Getting the right buyer is only a matter of some time then!
In case you wish to buy a helicopter or switch to a new Bell model, these agencies would provide you with the relevant details and specifications. If there is a Bell helicopter for sale somewhere in the world, chances are that the entire product information regarding that would rest with the agent. You would know if it has any damage history, how many hours it has flown, availability time et al. Not just that, they also showcase pictures of those from all angles to make your decision-making easier. You just need to choose the one you think best fits your requirement and the job’s done.
Bell keeps coming up with newer models. And people often sell older models to check out the latest. Therefore, the number of used helicopters under the Bell name is also higher. That may be one reason why the purchase and sell of Bell helicopters, in particular, never ceases.

Pilots Age 60 Where Is It Now
Pilots Age 60 Where Is It Now by Steven Rowland
Probably one of the most contentious issues of recent times in the aviation community is the proposed changes to the age 60 rule. As most of the readers will be aware, age 60 is a mandatory retirement age for pilots involved in the part 121 airline environment. Representations and pressure groups from both ends of the age spectrum have recently been engaged in open warfare to influence the change in legislation to their specific sides benefit.
In early 2005, the republican senator for Nevada introduced a bill, HR 65, which dealt with altering the retirement age for airline pilots from 60 to 65, so as to be inline with ICAO rules. The resolution was then referred to the House Committee on Transportation and infrastructure which was chaired by Rep. Don Young. Subsequently HR 65 was then referred to the Sub Committee on Aviation which falls under the jurisdiction of the Transportation committee. There was indeed no hearings ever conducted on HR 65 nor were any recommendations tendered to the House Committee on Transportation. Thats basically where the resolution remained all through 2006 until the 109th Congress adjourned in December.
Further to the above, a bill entitled S 65 was sponsored in the Senate which was then referred to the relevant committee for consideration. On the 19th July 2005, the committee met and convened a hearing to consider the issue. Representations from many pressure groups such as, FAA, Aerospace Medical Association, Airline Pilots Association, SWAPA, Allied Pilots Association, and Jetblue Airways Corporation were heard and evaluated by the committee members. On the 17th of November the committee ruled and acquiesced to support the change to mirror the ICAO regulations. Following the above procedure, the bill was released from committee and placed upon the Senate Legislative Calendar.
This is the point that many bills perish before even making it to the floor as the responsibility lays with the Senate Majority leader to determine which bills are addressed by the that session of the Senate. The Senate Majority Leader, Senator Frist never determined a date for the hearing of the bill and that is where the bill remained until perishing with the adjournment of the 109th Congress.
Whilst, both bills died a standalone death, they received a much needed boost by their incorporation as amendments into the Transportations Appropriations Bill, HR 5576. Generally, these money bills are voted and passed in the house before moving into the second phase of review in the Senate. While in review in Senate Sub Committee the S 65 changes where added to the appropriations bill.
However, due to the election the money bill was never voted upon and therefore ceased when the 109th congress adjourned in December 2006. Rather than pass these appropriations bills congress choose to pass a continuing resolution which allowed the federal government to fund their agencies until Feb 15th, 2007.
So as it stands, the amendments remain within the appropriations bill and must be addressed by the 110th Congress whether individually or rolled up into a single bill called an omnibus bill. As the balance of power in Congress has changed its unlikely that the Democrat led Senate would choose to keep any controversial amendments in the appropriations bill lest it cause the delay of federal funding for their agencies. Having said that, there is tremendous pressure from both sides of the age divide to influence the proceedings.
It’s difficult to argue with the plight of the lower end of the seniority list, having been restricted from the usual career progression by a number of factors including 911 and the vicious airline bankruptcies. Any change to the age 60 rule would surely delay their captain upgrades by at least 5 years and cost untold thousands in lost career earnings. The alternative side of the argument is that age 60 is discriminatory and that pilots may very well be medically capable of pursuing the left seat until age 65.
Irrespective of your viewpoint, it is imperative that ALPA brings all pilots, regardless of seniority, together on this issue. As surely a hotbed issue such as this will only be detrimental to any alliance that currently exists between the different pilot groups and airline management most definitely does not require another issue to play wedge politics with.
