Embraer touts fly-by-wire system for Legacy 450, 500
Embraer Executive Vice President of Executive Jets Luis Carlos Affonso unveiled more details of the fly-by-wire (FBW) systems that will control the company’s next airplanes—the Legacy 450 and Legacy 500. The 500, a mid-size jet, and the 450—a “mid light” jet, to use Embraer parlance—will be the smallest business jets to use FBW systems. Instead of the conventional cables and pulleys of a mechanical flight control system, the FBW system in the 450 and 500 uses digital commands from onboard computers to generate movements of the airplane’s ailerons, elevator, rudder, and thrust levers. Autothrottles will be standard in both models. Read more >>

Avidyne touts new autopilots
Avidyne founder Dan Schwinn said the pioneering avionics firm’s new DFC90 autopilot will be a technology foundation for a variety of upcoming safety features. The autopilot offers new “flight envelope protection” features that guard against critically high or low airspeeds and prevent autopilot-induced stalls, Schwinn said July 27 at EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wis. The DFC90 also has a “straight and level” button that automatically recovers aircraft from unusual attitudes. Read more >>
Tempest starts it up with new starters
Tempest has expanded its product line to include new starters for a variety of Teledyne Continental Motors, company officials said July 27. The Gibsonville, N.C., company already makes spark plugs, oil filters, and carburetors. The new starters for TCM engines claim to draw less current, last longer, and operate more reliably than other starters. Tempest is launching a new “Products of Champions” marketing campaign with aerobatic performers Sean D. Tucker and Kirby Chambliss. Both pilots praised Tempest and its employees on July 27. “The people that build these products are humble, passionate, and they care about craftsmanship,” Tucker said. “That’s important to me when I’m flying 10 feet off the ground at 250 miles an hour.”
Oma Sud offers utility twin
Oma Sud Sky Technologies, an aircraft manufacturer based in Capua, Italy, brought its twin-engine Skycar with rearward-facing Lycoming engines to EAA AirVenture. It also features a twin-boom tail that allows for a rear cargo door. The rear door can be opened in flight for air-dropping emergency supplies. It was designed for day/night/IFR operations, and can operate on unprepared grass or dirt strips. The aircraft has retractable gear and a useful load of 1,268 pounds and carries 95 gallons of useable fuel. Design work on the aircraft began in 1988. The company has a subsidiary operation at Opa-Locka Executive Airport in Miami. Two Lycoming IO-360-C1E6 engines rated at 200 horsepower power it. The company hopes to win FAA certification by December.

Safety & Proficiency
FAA warns GA accident rate needs improvement
FAA Administrator Randy Babbitt warned that general aviation accident numbers are “…candidly, not where I or the folks in the FAA would like them to be.” Progress toward a lower accident rate has constantly improved, but the goal set by FAA officials has not been met, he said. He said AOPA and Experimental Aircraft Association officials are working to help reduce the accident rate through safety programs. This year so far there have been 120 fatal GA accidents. That’s down 8 percent, but Babbitt said he wants it down further than that. Read more >>
Summer weather calls for thunderstorm awareness
It’s simple: Airplanes and thunderstorms don’t mix. These convective beasts can produce airframe-shattering turbulence, damaging hail, sudden and dramatic wind shear, blinding downpours, and strong, gusty winds—sometimes as much as 20 miles from the edge of a cell. The good news: It’s not difficult to avoid these violent storms—if you know how to use the tools at your disposal. Enter the AOPA Air Safety Foundation’s Thunderstorm Awareness Safety Spotlight, which gathers in one place essential courses, quizzes, and publications associated with this topic so you don’t have to hunt for it.

Changes to airline training hours in short-term FAA bill
House Transportation and Infrastructure Chairman James Oberstar (D-Minn.) and aviation subcommittee Chairman Jerry Costello (D-Ill.) introduced a short-term FAA funding extension July 28 that also includes provisions for airline pilot training requirements. Once passed, the Airline Safety and FAA Extension Act of 2010 would continue the FAA’s aviation programs, taxes, and expenditure authority until Sept. 30. The House and Senate hope to have a long-term funding bill passed by then. The bill would require the airline transport pilot certificate in order to fly right seat on the airlines and additional training. It also addresses pilot fatigue, requiring the FAA to implement new pilot flight and duty time rules within a year after reviewing scientific research on fatigue. Read more >>
Hundreds at EAA turn out to ‘Meet the Administrator’

Individual California CFIs are not subject to costly reg
As the Aug. 1 implementation deadline for California’s Private Postsecondary Act of 2009 looms, AOPA has been working with state legislators to delay the effective date and revise the law. The law was originally meant to protect students at postsecondary schools and provide more business accountability for those schools, but it has unnecessarily created confusion and difficulties for those engaged in providing flight training, including apparent requirements for flight schools to pay multiple new administrative fees and open their books to regulators. The association has been reviewing the current law and seeking clarification on who is actually affected by the new requirements. Read more >>

FAA issues AD affecting 42,000 Piper aircraft

AOPA had filed formal comments in January opposing the AD, stating that the FAA needed to refine the number of aircraft that would be impacted because the amount of work and cost involved would place a burden on aircraft owners.

Backcountry airstrip resolution passes
The House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee passed a backcountry airstrip resolution July 29 by voice vote. The resolution “recognizes the value of recreational aviation and backcountry airstrips located on the Nation’s public lands and commends aviators and the various private organizations that maintain these airstrips for public use.” Rep. Denny Rehberg (R-Mont.), House GA Caucus co-chairs Allen Boyd (D-Fla.) and Vernon Ehlers (R-Mich.), Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho), and Rep. Walt Minnick (D-Idaho), introduced the resolution in June and gathered support through a Dear Colleague letter. Recreational aviation and backcountry airstrips serve a vital role for emergency flight operations, fire fighting, wildlife management, and tourism.

QUIZ ME!Here’s a question asked by an AOPA member who contacted our aviation services staff through the AOPA Pilot Information Center. Test your knowledge.
Question: Does the completion of an Air Safety Foundation online interactive course or an in-person safety seminar count as a flight review?
Answer: No. By itself an AOPA Air Safety Foundation course does not satisfy the requirement for a flight review. However, the courses can play a part in helping you to complete the flight review process. The two most common options for completing the flight review requirement under 14 CFR 61.56 are the traditional flight review and the Wings program. Read more >>
