Extracts from the test plan for in-flight evaluation of the NT-33A peripheral vision display

The Peripheral Vision Display (PVD) which presents the pilot with a gyro stabilized artificial horizon projected onto his instrument panel by a laser light source is outlined. During instrument flight conditions, such a display allows the pilot to gain attitude awareness by sensing the horizon line through his peripheral vision. The pilot can detect changes to aircraft attitude without continuously referring back to his flight instruments. A second generation PVD unit was installed in the USAF/Calspan NT-33A during late 1982. An NT-33A flight evaluation of the display provides a unique opportunity to utilize a Workload Assessment Device (WAD) to obtain quantitative data regarding the utility of the PVD in reducing pilot workload. The experimental design and procedures for a two phase NT-33 PVD flight evaluation program is described

AMBIGUITY AND EXCEPTIONS: DISSECTING CFTC V. MONEX CREDIT CO. AND THE COMMODITY EXCHANGE ACT TO EXPLAIN ACTUAL DELIVERY

“Leveraged trades” are transactions in which an investor borrows the capital to purchase or sell a commodity using the commodity itself as collateral. These transactions are vital to the health of commodities markets as they relate directly to market participation and liquidity, both essential components. A recent Ninth Circuit decision threatens these types of valuable transactions by adopting a narrow interpretation of a key exemption from the applicability of Commodity Exchange Act regulations. This Article will argue a broader interpretation is more consistent with the purpose behind the Commodity Exchange Act, recent Commodity Futures Trading Commission interpretations, and will better serve commodities traders along with the markets themselves

Mapping memories. Exploring intangible heritage through playwriting: an architextural approach

This research is part of an AHRC funded Practice-as-Research PhD currently being undertaken at the University of Glasgow under the supervision of Professor Deirdre Heddon, Dr. Victoria Price and Dr. Graham Eatough. My participation in the Dramatic Architectures conference has been funded by the University of Glasgow through a Research Training Support Grant. This work was published in a book funded by national funds through FCT - Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, I.P., within the project UIDB/04041/2020 (Centro de Estudos Arnaldo Araújo).info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Diminishing Hierarchies: Mental & Physical Illnesses Put into Perspective

Rachel Knotts compares the social treatment of illnesses we can visibly see versus those we cannot, posing a provoking observation: society has created two separate views regarding the care for mental and physical illnesses

Guest Blog: Spring Break Trip to New Mexico

During spring break, a group of Gardner-Webb students went to Pecos, New Mexico, as part of a mission trip. The students left early Thursday morning, March 9, and returned to campus on March 16.https://digitalcommons.gardner-webb.edu/gwu-today/1436/thumbnail.jp
