Download or read book Parachute Recovery Systems written by Theo W. Knacke and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this manual is to provide recovery system engineers in government and industry with tools to evaluate, analyze, select, and design parachute recovery systems. These systems range from simple, one-parachute assemblies to multiple-parachute systems, and may include equipment for impact attenuation, flotation, location, retrieval, and disposition. All system aspects are discussed, including the need for parachute recovery, the selection of the most suitable recovery system concept, concept analysis, parachute performance, force and stress analysis, material selection, parachute assembly and component design, and manufacturing. Experienced recovery system engineers will find this publication useful as a technical reference book; recent college graduates will find it useful as a textbook for learning about parachutes and parachute recovery systems; and technicians with extensive practical experience will find it useful as an engineering textbook that includes a chapter on parachute- related aerodynamics. In this manual, emphasis is placed on aiding government employees in evaluating and supervising the design and application of parachute systems. The parachute recovery system uses aerodynamic drag to decelerate people and equipment moving in air from a higher velocity to a lower velocity and to a safe landing. This lower velocity is known as rate of descent, landing velocity, or impact velocity, and is determined by the following requirements: (1) landing personnel uninjured and ready for action, (2) landing equipment and air vehicles undamaged and ready for use or refurbishment, and (3) impacting ordnance at a preselected angle and velocity.

Download or read book Multiservice Helicopter Sling Load written by Coast Guard and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-06-21 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multiservice Helicopter Sling Load: Basic Operations And Equipment COMDTINST M13482.2B; TM 4-48.09 (FM 4-20.197); MCRP 4-11.3E; NTTP 3-04.11; AFMAN 11-223 On the Cover: K9 Piper is one of the very special dogs that keep airports safe. You can find Piper's social media accounts by searching: @airportsk9. This manual is one of a series of manuals for aviation and ground personnel who perform helicopter sling load missions ashore or aboard ship. These manuals are a coordinated effort of the US Army, US Marine Corps, US Navy, US Air Force, and US Coast Guard. All services participate in the sling load certification program begun by the Army in 1984. These manuals include standardized rigging procedures and other information from that program. Efforts were made to standardize ground crew and hookup procedures and terminology. The terms "helicopter" and "aircraft" refer to vertical lift aircraft that participate in sling load operations. Where service-unique requirements apply to an entire chapter or body of text, the service initials are at the beginning of the chapter or text. Otherwise the initials are at the end of the applicable sentence. The information in this manual will familiarize personnel with the sling sets, cargo nets, and other sling load equipment in the DOD inventory. It will also acquaint them with the helicopters used for sling load and provide basic procedures for rigging and hooking up loads. Rigging equipment and procedures described in this manual may not be authorized for all aircraft or services because of equipment or service restrictions. This manual does not provide details on aviation operations nor does it present detailed data that is normally contained in unit standing operating procedures (SOPs). Why buy a book you can download for free? We print the paperback book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. It's much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com This book includes original commentary which is copyright material. Note that government documents are in the public domain. We print these paperbacks as a service so you don't have to. The books are compact, tightly-bound paperback, full-size (8 1/2 by 11 inches), with large text and glossy covers. 4th Watch Publishing Co. is a HUBZONE SDVOSB. https: //usgovpub.com

Download or read book Aircrew Training Manual Cargo Helicopter Ch 47D F written by Department of the Army and published by . This book was released on 2007-10-24 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This aircrew training manual (ATM) standardizes aircrew training programs and flight evaluation procedures. This manual provides specific guidelines for executing CH-47D/F aircrew training based on Field Manual (FM) 7-1. It establishes crewmember qualification, and refresher, mission, and continuation training and evaluation requirements. This manual applies to all CH-47D/F crewmembers and their commanders. The CH-47D is not a similar aircraft to CH-47F. The CH-47F is a similar aircraft to the CH-47G. This is not a stand-alone document; all requirements contained in Army regulations (ARs) and Training Circular (TC) 1-210 must be met. This manual is the governing authority for training and flight evaluation purposes only if differences exist between the maneuver descriptions in Technical Manual (TM) 1-1520-240-10 or TM 1-1520-271-10 and this ATM. TM 1-1520-240-10 and TM 1-1520-271-10 are the governing authority for operation of the aircraft. Implementation of this manual conforms to AR 95-1 and TC 1-210. This manual (with applicable ARs and TC 1-210) will help all levels of aviation commanders develop a comprehensive aircrew training program. By using the ATM, commanders ensure individual crewmember and aircrew proficiency is commensurate with the unit's mission and that aircrews employ standard techniques and procedures. This manual will be used as a "how to" source for performing crewmember duties. It provides performance standards and evaluation guidelines so that crewmembers know the expected level of performance. Each task has a description of the performance required to meet the standard. Standardization officers, evaluators, and unit trainers will use this manual and TC 1-210 as the primary tools to develop and implement their aircrew training program (ATP). This manual applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard (ARNG)/Army National Guard of the United States (ARNGUS), and the United States Army Reserve (USAR) unless otherwise stated.This ATM describes training requirements for crewmembers. It will be used with AR 95-1, AR 600-105, AR 600-106, NGR (AR) 95-210, TC 1-210, and other applicable publications. The tasks in this ATM enhance training in individual and aircrew proficiency. The training focuses on accomplishing tasks that support the unit's mission. The scope and level of training to be achieved, individually by crewmembers and collectively by aircrews, is dictated by the mission-essential task list (METL). Commanders must ensure aircrews are proficient in the METL.

Download or read book Critical Path written by R. Buckminster Fuller and published by Estate of R. Buckminster Fuller. This book was released on 1982-02-15 with total page 892 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The masterwork of a brilliant career, and an important document of the crisis now facing mankind. Today we find ourselves in the midst of the greatest crisis in the history of the human race. Technology has placed in our hands almost unlimited power at the very moment when we have run up against the limits of our resources aboard Spaceship Earth, as the crises of the late twentieth century—political, economic, environmental, and ethical—determine whether or not humanity survives. In this masterful summing up of an entire lifetime’s thought and concern, R. Buckminster Fuller addresses these crucial issues in his most significant, accessible, and urgent work. Critical Path traces the origins and evolution of humanity’s social, political, and economic systems from the obscure mists of prehistory, through the development of the great political empires, to the vast international corporate and political systems that control our destiny today to show how we got to our present situation and what options are available to man. With his customary brilliance, extraordinary energy, and unlimited devotion, Bucky Fuller shows how mankind can survive, and how each individual can respond to the unprecedented threat we face today. The crowning achievement of an extraordinary career, Critical Path offers the reader the excitement of understanding the essential dilemmas of our time and how responsible citizens can rise to meet this ultimate challenge to our future.
