These "drones" are more like enclosed ultralights, heavily loaded, 50-80mph, which an airliner would have already stalled at and be dropping out of the sky.

As indicated below, it would be a war crime. More importantly, it's not uncommon when crossing Air Route Traffic Control Centers (ARTCC) regions (eg. from Washington Center, to NY Center) for controllers to instruct pilots to change S

The Airliner has a transponder and a radio. Pretty sure the drone does not. The transponder code, assigned by various ATC would identify that aircraft as a civilian airliner when it checks in, and on the screens of the SAM operators. Also,

This is going back a few years, but we used on our systems, AD620 In-Amp (Instrumentation Op-Amp) front-end IC, and a PIC 16F series micro, some filtering in between, for 2 channels. Even today, I think one could get to 2 or 4 channels with

Agreed. Doing it to mess with the controller is going to get the crew and the airline in hot water. That said, there is a fair amount of discretion on the Captain's part, and if the pilot was unable to land at Oakland for an unforeseen

A lot of USAF pilots flew gliders at the USAF Academy, or as cadets in Civil Air Patrol. At some point in their career, they become airline pilots. It would be similar for the RCAF.

I'm not so sure the F-18 Stores Management Processor used the i960MX. Any sources to confirm that? There has been some interest recently in the F-22 Common Integrated Processor using the i960MX, as the USAF wishes to retire older F-22

I live in San Francisco, and while I largely agree with you, one of the larger challenges is the lack of accountability for the organisations and the staff that provide services to the poor and homeless. It seems they spend more money doing

A well written paper. Glad to see you included females with autism. Typically research papers under-represent or ignore females with autism, which is plain wrong. I used to work as an EEG technician, and came across some autistic children.
