Classic Aero-TV: Making Good Planes Better--Micro VGs Offer Aero-Enhancements

From 2013 (YouTube Edition): Vortex Generators Can Radically Improve Many Airframes VERY Cost-Effectively While at the AOPA 2013 convention, ANN CEO and Editor-In-Chief, Jim Campbell had a chance to talk with Anni Brogan the President of Micro Aerodynamics Incorporated. Micro Aerodynamics develops and produces vortex generators for various functions on numerous aircraft make and models. In this video, Brogan explains how the vortex generator works and how it does more than we may think it does. It’s common to see vortex generators on the leading edge of a wing and we usually associate this with reducing the stall speed. Brogan explains that stall speed adjustment through the use of vortex generators can be important, but they also can do more than that. Vortex generators can improve controllability and adjust the effectiveness of controls. For example, she points out that vortex generators applied to the rudder of a multiengine airplane can reduce the VMC speed.

Classic Aero-TV: Skyryse Reimagines Helicopter Controls

From 2024 (YouTube Edition): Developing STC For Fly-By-Wire In R-66 Rex Alexander spoke with Warren Curry of Skyryse about the Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) SkyRyse is developing that it anticipates will be certified in 2025. The STC is for a fly-by-wire system named SkyOS, in this instance for the Robinson R-66 helicopter. SkyOS is very different from what helicopter pilots are used to. Instead of using a collective, cyclic, and pedals to control the aircraft, SkyOS combines all of those parameters into one side-mounted stick that the pilot uses to control all the same flight parameters. In fact, the Skyryse One helicopter is an adaptation of the R-66 with all the modifications done to the interior and control systems: sidestick for control but no collective, no cyclic, and no pedals.

Classic Aero-TV: Korean War Hero Twice Reborn

From 2023 (YouTube Edition): The Life, Death, Life, Death, and Life of a Glorious Warbird In 1981, business-owner Jim Tobul and his father purchased a Chance-Vought F4U Corsair. More accurately, the two men purchased three truckloads of parts that, over the following decade, they fashioned into a flying warbird. That Jim Tobul is an FAA certified AMP/IA and pilot was critical to the endeavor, but not so critical as the father-and-son team’s passion for aviation, the Corsair, and the history embodied in the aircraft to which they dedicated vast tracts of their lives. The machine the Tobuls built—and upon which they bestowed the apt nom de guerre, Korean War Hero—is Chance Vought F4U-4 Corsair serial number Bu#97143, registration number N713JT.

Classic Aero-TV: Lightspeed Aviation’s Delta Zulu Headset

From 2023 (YouTube Edition): Advent of the Age of Safety Wearables The paramountcy of a pilot’s headset to the safety and enjoyment of flight cannot be overstated. It is the helm of his panoply, the instrument of his radiotelephony, and—thanks to the good people at Lightspeed—the ever-vigilant guardian by which his life is defended from demon carbon-monoxide. Since the introduction of its first product in 1996, Oswego, Oregon-based Lightspeed Aviation has evolved into one of the headset market’s premier innovators. In 2022, the company launched what it calls Safety Wearables—a forward-thinking amalgam comprising Lightspeed’s award-winning audio and Active Noise Reduction (ANR) systems with Kanari smart carbon-monoxide monitoring, detection, and warning technology.

Classic Aero-TV: Albuquerque Balloon Museum -- Where Ballooning Comes Alive

From 2010 (YouTube Edition): Preserving The History Of An Amazing Facet Of Aviation ANN's phenomenal trip to Albuquerque for the 2010 ABQ Balloon Fiesta is the gift that keeps on giving... both with the memories we have of the extraordinary visual delights of that week as well as the tremendous opportunities our Aero-TV crews had to experience so much of the world of ballooning, its people and its history. One of the more intriguing aspects of that trip was our visit to the Anderson-Abruzzo International Balloon Museum. The Anderson-Abruzzo Albuquerque International Balloon Museum presents the development of ballooning through historic, scientific and artistic objects reflecting world-wide achievements in this field.

Classic Aero-TV: MagniX Electrifies A Harbour Air Beaver

From 2024 (YouTube Edition): Partners Working to Commercialize the Aircraft by 2027 MagniX and Harbour Air are working towards commercialization of their battery-powered eBeaver in the United States and Canada. They expect it to enter service in 2027. The eBeaver, a De Havilland Beaver seaplane modified with magniX’s EPU, took to the skies for the first time on December 10, 2018. Since then, it has made 89 more flights and cycled through two generations of battery technology. A third version is currently in the early stages of development. The aircraft was designed to be both efficient and aerodynamic, needing a thrust setting of only 41% to maintain cruise. The battery technology allows an hour's worth of flight, including reserves, with 5 passengers and a pilot on board. It is also 20 dB quieter during every stage of flight than other prop-powered aircraft.

Classic Aero-TV: The Bizarre Universe of Klyde Morris Cartoons

From 2023 (YouTube Edition): Putting the ANT in Antihero A Beech Starship speeds along at altitude. “Deflectors on!” a voice from within the aircraft cries. “Look! Over there!” the voice continues, “A droid battle star. I’ll bet they’ve detected us!” A second voice, this time from the Starship’s cockpit. “It’s a real pain being the pilot of a Beech Starship the day after the owner saw Star Wars.” “Forget TCAS,” the first voice exclaims. “Use the Force!” Such are the anecdotes and inside aerospace jokes by which cartoonist Wes Oleszewski’s work is characterized.

Classic Aero-TV: The Life and Afterlife of the B1B Lancer

From 2022 (YouTube Edition): A Bone to Chew Envisioned in the 1960s as a platform that would combine the Mach 2 speed of Convair’s sexy but temperamental B-58 Hustler with the range and payload of Boeing’s rock-steady B-52 Stratofortress, Rockwell’s B-1 Lancer was meant to ultimately replace both aircraft. Following a long series of studies, Rockwell International (now part of Boeing) prevailed—besting Boeing, General Dynamics, and North American—in the U.S. Air Force’s Advanced Manned Strategic Aircraft (AMSA) design contest, submitting a concept that would, years later, emerge into the Cold War world as the B-1A.
