  • How Doc Draper Became the Father of Inertial Guidance
    (Preprint) AAS 18-121 HOW DOC DRAPER BECAME THE FATHER OF INERTIAL GUIDANCE Philip D. Hattis* With Missouri roots, a Stanford Psychology degree, and a variety of MIT de- grees, Charles Stark “Doc” Draper formulated the basis for reliable and accurate gyro-based sensing technology that enabled the first and many subsequent iner- tial navigation systems. Working with colleagues and students, he created an Instrumentation Laboratory that developed bombsights that changed the balance of World War II in the Pacific. His engineering teams then went on to develop ever smaller and more accurate inertial navigation for aircraft, submarines, stra- tegic missiles, and spaceflight. The resulting inertial navigation systems enable national security, took humans to the Moon, and continue to find new applica- tions. This paper discusses the history of Draper’s path to becoming known as the “Father of Inertial Guidance.” FROM DRAPER’S MISSOURI ROOTS TO MIT ENGINEERING Charles Stark Draper was born in 1901 in Windsor Missouri. His father was a dentist and his mother (nee Stark) was a school teacher. The Stark family developed the Stark apple that was popular in the Midwest and raised the family to prominence1 including a cousin, Lloyd Stark, who became governor of Missouri in 1937. Draper was known to his family and friends as Stark (Figure 1), and later in life was known by colleagues as Doc. During his teenage years, Draper enjoyed tinkering with automobiles. He also worked as an electric linesman (Figure 2), and at age 15 began a liberal arts education at the University of Mis- souri in Rolla.

  • Advisory Circular (AC)
    U.S. Department Advisory of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Circular Subject: Parts 91, 121, 125, and 135 Date: 7/30/12 AC No: 120-74B Flightcrew Procedures During Taxi Initiated by: Change: Operations AFS-200/800 1. PURPOSE. This advisory circular (AC) provides guidelines for the development and implementation of standard operating procedures (SOP) for conducting safe aircraft operations during taxiing to avoid causing a runway incursion. In accordance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Order 7050.1, Runway Safety Program, the definition of a runway incursion is any occurrence at an aerodrome involving the incorrect presence of an aircraft, vehicle, or person on the protected area of a surface designated for the landing and takeoff of aircraft. It is intended for use by persons operating aircraft with two or more pilots on the flight deck under Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) parts 91, 121, 125, and 135. The FAA recommends that these guidelines become an integral part of all SOPs, flight operations manuals (FOM), and formal flightcrew member training programs. The use of flightcrew SOPs should be emphasized and employed during all phases of flight, including ground operations. Appendices 1 and 2 of this AC contain examples of SOPs that are identical or similar to some SOPs currently in use. These appendices are not directive or prescriptive in nature and do not represent a rigid FAA view of Best Practices. SOPs may vary among fleets and among certificate holders and may change over time. Operators may integrate the information contained in Appendices 1 and 2 into their fleet-specific, route-specific, and equipment-specific operations and checklists.

  • Ice and Rain Protection
    SECTION II AIRPLANE AND SYSTEMS MODEL 680 ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION The anti-ice systems are designed to prevent ice formation on the pitot tubes, static ports, angle-of-attack probes, ram air temperature (RAT) probes, engines, wings, wing roots, horizontal stabilizer leading edges, windshields, and overboard water drain lines. The vertical stabilizer does not require anti-icing. The various anti-icing systems use electrical heating elements or hot engine bleed air, and are activated by switches and knobs on the instrument panels. There are many engine instrument and crew alerting system (EICAS) messages that pertain to operation of the anti-icing systems. Some are discussed here, but most are covered in detail under Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting System (EICAS), in Section Three of this manual. ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Figure 2-23 2-70 Configuration AA 68OM-00 SECTION II MODEL 680 AIRPLANE AND SYSTEMS ANTI-ICE CONTROL PANEL Figure 2-24 DC electric power is used to anti-ice the pitot tubes and static ports, the AOA probes, the ram air temperature (RAT) probes. AC electric power is used for the cockpit windshields and front side windows. High-pressure, or low-pressure bleed air is used to anti-ice the wing leading edges, the wing-mounted landing lights, and the horizontal stabilizer leading edges. Windshield, pitot/static and AOA anti-ice are normally operated full-time in flight. 68OM-00 Configuration AA 2-71 SECTION II AIRPLANE AND SYSTEMS MODEL 680 PITOT-STATIC AND ANGLE-OF-ATTACK (AOA) PROBE ANTI-ICE Electric elements heat the pilot and copilot pitot tubes, static ports, AOA probes, and standby pitot/static system.
