I designed and coordinated the complete electrical and panel/avionics upgrades of three BD-5J Microjets that are used to train our military how to protect America by finding and intercepting cruise missiles fired by hostile forces, terrorist or not. The three aircraft can now do day or night VFR and minimal IFR down to ground level to run the mission profiles required to train our military pilots. Two of them are equipped with synthetic vision EFIS, advanced engine and systems monitoring, full digital AHRS and other features that allow it to perform its mission with a margin of safety sufficient to do the job and then some. The third is ready to be EFIS/EAU upgraded as soon as the mission requirements demand it. At 50 ft off the ground and 250 knots, the BD-5J is so invisible to radar that a tracking transmitter must be installed so the mission controllers can see it. At 50 ft, do people even care if _you_ are flying? +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ You and Zoom... Legends in your own minds. g Barnyard BOb -- |
