"Emerging Technology Can Increase Safety, Security & Reliability While Reducing Cost"

Reduce piloting costs by permitting a single onboard pilot and a remote copilot (that can safely provide the backup control for a plurality of aircraft).– A single remote-pilot can concurrently provide the backup for and safely

fly a plurality of airplanes using well known aircraft spacing/separation.– Utilizes highly-qualified remote-pilot to safely fly an aircraft in congested

air space, via ciphered radio telemetry to the aircraft and air traffic controllers.

– Permits the remote-pilot/copilot to control/fly/land an operational aircraft just as if he/she were the onboard pilot.

Reduce 9/11, Helios (FLT. 522-2005,121 fatality,B-737)/Payne Stewart(1999,Lear Jet, 5 fatality) Decompression crashes, etc.– When a plane substantially deviates from its approved flight plans, it is

presently possible to have a remote-pilot/copilot located in a secure, high-fidelity, virtual-reality aircraft simulator fly the plane to a safe landing at a sparsely populated airfield. The cost reduction by eliminating a 9/11 type crash would more than pay for the entire system and its operation for ten years.

– Planes that deviate onto potentially fatal runways can be stopped.


"Emerging Technology Can Increase Safety, Security & Reliability While Reducing Cost“ (continued)

Reduce costly runway expansion programs. Provides enhanced tarmac visibility and situation awareness aboard the

aircraft and to the traffic controllers. Unifies and simplifies air traffic control and pilot displays and makes them

more comprehensive. Eliminates the present half cup full system where neither the controllers or

the pilots have shared the necessary information to prevent crashes. Reduces delays and permits higher traffic density on existing runways. Enhances tarmac safety.

Reduce aircraft operating costs. Decreases fuel utilization. Increases aircraft payload (reduced weight). Decreases avionics maintenance (less avionics and mechanical interfaces).


Reduce the costs and problems associated with the recovery and utilization of onboard flight data via real-time telemetry of the digital flight data.

– Digital flight data is safely stored, in real-time on the ground computer’s memory for post flight analysis.

– Digital Flight Data recorder aboard the aircraft can provide data redundancy.– Permits Recorders to be used for automatic checkout of the aircraft prior to takeoff

during a flight, and post flight.– Gets safety personnel quickly to a crash site for possible triage and the saving of lives.– Reduces the anguish of crash victims families.

Reduce FOQA costs and its latency period;– All data is automatically telemetered to the ground in real-time for processing and

distribution. Provides the necessary real-time digital-data to open the door to knowledge based 4-dimenstional trajectory Air Traffic Management (ATM), aeronautics and navigation.

– Minimizes scheduled engine maintenance by real-time tracking of engine utilization. Reduce insurance costs by making the plane and airports safer and securer. Reduces LRU costs by eliminating TCAS hardware and performing that function in the air

and on the tarmac/ground via software (standard TCAS doesn’t function on the ground and can’t prevent ground incursions).

"Emerging Technology Can Increase Safety, Security & Reliability While Reducing Cost“

(continued)


"Emerging Technology Can Increase Safety, Security & Reliability While Reducing Cost“ (continued)

Has many advantages over the current day onboard-only dual pilots approach, since the remote-pilot/copilot isn’t subject to loss of oxygen/decompression, extreme G forces, temperature, smoke, passenger disturbances and terrorists. – The ground-based cockpit virtual-reality simulator minimizes

problems associated with pilot disorientation, poor visibility, weather, runway selection and ground incursions, which have resulted in numerous fatal accidents.

– From a safety standpoint, the remote-pilot/copilot can communicate directly with flight operations, emergency and security personnel, ATC/ATM as well as with the aircraft manufacturer’s design/engineering experts on how best to handle an aircraft operation problem thereby preventing the loss of life.

Utilizes present state-of-the-art communication security, communication technology, and data storage to make flying safer, securer and more economical.

Provides a safety and security technology bridge to the future use of unmanned cargo aircraft (UCA).

A FATAL CRASH IN THE GROUND INCURSION FAMILY IS THE 79 FATALITY 10/31/00 SINGAPORE AIRLINE’S FLIGHT 006

The 21st Century Aviation System controller and the pilot would have full visibility display of the plane going onto the wrong hazardous runway way long before the fatal accident occurred. The controller would then provide manual and automatic alerts to the pilot of the problem. These alerts would have probably prevented the needless loss of lives. If these alerts to the pilot failed, the controller would shut the plane down to prevent the fatal accident.

The system, not the pilot’s error, killed these passengers. We have allowed ignorance and a dark age autopsy mode to solely exist. Most errors or problems need not result in fatal accidents.

SAFELANDER would have prevented this crash by displaying to the pilot in real-time the safe trajectory

This is a recurring tarmac crash that was readily preventable. It was due to a fatal flaw in the traffic control shared information system and not pilot error.

Notice that the departure and crash times would have permitted a single remote pilot in a ground-based simulator to take real-time control of each aircraft and sequentially land them at sparsely populated landing sites:

A total of 265 died aboard aircraft and about 2700 died on the ground.

The cost of the disaster was estimated at over 10 billion dollars which is more than five times the estimated 2 billion dollars required to make SAFELANDER operational.

As bad as 9/11 was, the terrorists could have inflicted much worse damage by using the aircraft as a guided bombs and flown/crashed into some nuclear plants.

On October 21, 2009 Northwest, Airbus A320, Flight 188, flew past its destination with no FAA communication for an hour and 18 minutes.

(Flt between San Diego, CA to Minneapolis, MN) In all that time no fighter plane took off to intercept Flight 188. This period is

longer than either AAL Flight 11 or UAL Flight 175 needed to take-off and crash into the World Trade Center on 9/11/2001.

SAFELANDER PREVENTS 9/11 RECURRENCE Without It We Depend On Luck


March 8, 2014, 0041: Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 departs from March 8, 2014, 0041: Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 departs from Kuala Lumpur International Airport and is due to land in Beijing at Kuala Lumpur International Airport and is due to land in Beijing at

0630 the same day. On board the Boeing 777-200ER are 227 0630 the same day. On board the Boeing 777-200ER are 227 passengers and 12 crew.passengers and 12 crew.

The scandal is that, as of September 2015 and extensive/expensive searches, no one knows where the plane is or what caused the tragedy.

The critical flight data was locked up in the DFDR recorder aboard the plane and never effectively data streamed its information to the ground for safe retrievable storage and possible used in real-time for crash avoidance.

The communication system on commercial carrier aircraft is a low bandwidth technically obsolete system that wouldn’t be tolerated by the military for UAVs/RPVsUAVs/RPVs (drones).

The planes altitude dropped from an altitude of 36,000 feet to 6000 feet (the height of the mountain) in 10 minutes time.

The last ten minutes the copilot didn’t respond to ATC. There was plenty of time for Safelander to prevent this crash. Lubitz’s suicide isn’t the first case of suicidal pilots.Note: The BEA, Bureau d'Enquêtes et d'Analyses pour la sécurité de l'aviation civile, is the French equivalent
