You would think that lawyers, of all people, would act professional and ethical. However, that is not often the case, as they are only human and are subjected to making mistakes. When they do, they should be treated no different than any ordinary person, irrespective of their status in life.

Unmanned Aircraft System Detect and Avoid ADS-B Technology

Unmanned Aircraft System Detect and Avoid ADS-B Technology As the number of UAV operations is expected to increase from 33,000 in 2016 to 542,000 in 2020 (FAA,2016), the FAA works toward the integration of UAS in NAS becomes imperative at a time where the agency is still finalizing the implementation of the Next Generation transportation system in the NAS. The integration of the UAS in the controlled and uncontrolled airspace is something that must happen as the engendered benefits of the different applications of UAS in dull, dirty, and dangerous environment outweigh that of the missions employing manned aircraft in the same environment. UAS routine access in the NAS must ensure safety and security come first that technologies, standards, regulations, and procedures must guarantee a “zero tolerance” operations. Among other essential technologies are the “Detect and Avoid” (DAA) mirroring the “See and Avoid” (SAA) performed by manned aircraft pilots executing the 14 CFR 91.1...

The future of Unmanned Aircraft System

Based on the article: Science, technology and the future of small autonomous drones (Floreano & Wood,2015) The more the aircraft is miniaturized, the more complex and challenging become its design and its manufacturing to ensure the propulsion and aerodynamic performance. Floreano and Wood recognize challenges, such as "the reduced power density of electromagnetic motors, decreased transmission efficiency owing to the increased dominance of friction from gears and bearings, and greater viscous losses because of reduced Reynolds numbers "  that must be considered at system design level for fixed-wing, rotorcraft or hybrid unmanned aircraft vehicle. The rotorcraft loses the propulsion performance the smaller the vehicle get; however, the UAV becomes more maneuverable because of a lower Reynolds number while a smaller fixed-wing aircraft will experience a low lift-to-drag ration, say Foreano and Wood (2015). The manufacturer must also anticipate the challenges relate to the...
