The Global Center for Advanced Studies was originally incorporated in the state of Colorado on August 22, 2013, by Creston C. Davis [1] [3] (currently Professor of Philosophy and Psychoanalysis and Chancellor at GCAS College Dublin), [4] as an institute of higher learning based on critical theory, and on the concept of a "debt free education grounded in the principles of Democracy and the ...
The Auto-GCAS system successfully reduced the leading cause of F-16 pilot fatalities. [3] NASA started working on Auto-GCAS starting in 1997. [4] The system was then jointly developed at the Lockheed Martin Skunk Works [3] and at NASA. In July 2019, seven years ahead of schedule, Lockheed Martin began integration of Auto-GCAS into the F-35 ...
The U.S. Air Force's F-16D Ground Collision Avoidance Technology (GCAT) aircraft. An airborne collision avoidance system (ACAS, usually pronounced as ay-kas) operates independently of ground-based equipment and air traffic control in warning pilots of the presence of other aircraft that may present a threat of collision.
On May 5, 2016, a military GPWS called Automatic Ground Collision Avoidance System (Auto-GCAS) equipped aboard an F-16 was activated after a trainee pilot lost consciousness from excessive G forces during basic fighter manoeuvre training. In an approximately 55 degree nose down attitude at 8,760 ft (2,670 m) and a speed of 750 mph (1,210 km/h ...
Auto GCAS development and testing (1986–1992): In 1986, members of the AFTI flight test team, in collaboration with General Dynamics, adapted the automated maneuvering capabilities with new ground collision avoidance equations and modified visual and aural cues to develop an automated ground collision avoidance (auto-GCAS) system.
The Children's Global Assessment Scale (CGAS) is a numeric scale used by mental health clinicians to rate the general functioning of youths under the age of 18. [1] Scores range from 1 to 90 or 1 to 100, with high scores indicating better functioning.
English: This newly declassified video footage from the head-up-display of a U.S. Air Force Arizona Air National Guard F-16 records the dramatic moment when its unconscious pilot is saved from certain death by the aircraft’s Automatic Ground Collision Avoidance System.
One key upgrade has been an auto-GCAS (Ground collision avoidance system) to reduce instances of controlled flight into terrain. [50] Onboard power and cooling capacities limit the scope of upgrades, which often involve the addition of more power-hungry avionics. [51] Lockheed won many contracts to upgrade foreign operators' F-16s.
