No. 400,175 3 Claims. (Cl. 310-13) This invention relates generally to induction motors and is more particularly directed to induction motors of both the linear movement or open-sided" type and the rotary movement or axial-air gap type.
It is a primary object of this invention to provide an improved induction motor having a generally flat configuration when constructed as either a rotary or linear motion producing device.
A further object of this invention is the provision of an improved induction motor having a generally flat configuration and capable of producing a high starting torque while operating at low synchronous and running speeds.
It is an additional object of this invention to provide an improved induction motor adaptable for both rotary or linear motion and having a modular stator construction which can be used in multiple form to cooperate with a single armature thereby to provide the desired torque or force characteristics.
It is another object of this invention to provide an improved armature construction suitable for use in both rotary and linear induction motors, which armature is of simple low-cost construction while being exceedingly durable in operation.
It is still another object of this invention to provide an improved linear induction motor which is susceptible of producing unlimited linear movement as well as combinations of rectilinear and rotary movement.
It is another object of this invention to provide an improved induction motor which can be eflectively reversed in its direction of operation at very high reverse cycle rates without damage to the motor.
It is a still further object of this invention to provide an improved induction motor having an extremely low mass armature.
It is another object of this invention to provide an improved induction motor having simplified double armature construction.
It is a still further object of the invention to provide an improved induction motor having a generally fiat configuration when constructed as either a rotary or a linear motion-producing device, which motor is simple in construction, durable and reliable in operation and easily manufactured at low cost.
Other objects will be in part obvious and in part pointed out more in detail hereinafter.
The invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combination of elements and arrangementof parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereafter set forth and the scope of the application which will be indicated in the appended claims.
In the drawings:
FIG. 1 is a side elevation view of an open-sided motor constructed in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a cross section view taken generally along the lines 22 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a schematic wiring diagram for the motor of FIG. 1;
FIG. 4 is a perspective view, partially broken away, of another embodiment of the linear motor of this invention;
FIG. 5 is a schematic coil wiring diagram for the motor of FIG. 4;
3,333,124 Patented July 25, 1967 ice FIG. 6 is a schematic view of an axial air gap motor of this invention utilizing two modular stator members;
FIG. 7 is an end view of the motor schematically illustrated in FIG. 6;
FIG. 8 is a schematic view of a motor of the type illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7 having two rotors; and
FIG. 9 is a speed torque curve of a two rotor induction motor.
The induction motor of this invention has utility with applications requiring both linear and rotary movement and for purposes of convenience, the type of motor which produces rotary movement is referred to as an axial air gap motor and the type of motor which produces linear movement is referred to as an open-sided motor, and in both cases the driving member is referred to as the stator and the driven member is referred to as the armature.
For a better understanding of the present invention, attention is first directed to FIGS. 1-3 wherein an open sided motor particularly suited for producing rectilinear motion is described. The motor of FIG. 1 is shown as comprising a driving member or stator generally designated 10 having a ferromagnetic core formed from a plurality of identical toothed laminations 11 which are suitably stacked and secured together to define poles 12 and slots 13. The slots receive field coils 15 which are of conventional coiled electrical conductor configuration arranged in the stator slots to form a two layer single coil lap wound stator. The field coils 15 are electrically interconnected with capacitor 17 for connection to a single phase AC source thereby to produce an electromagnetic field which in accordance with conventional induction motor theories, moves along the active surface; i.e., the toothed surface of the stator. The illustrated stator configuration can, of course, be varied in accordance with conventional induction motor techniques, as for example, modification of pole configuration, slot construction, lamination arrangement and the manner of arranging the coils in the slots. Similarly the coils can be connected for energization from any suitable multiphase source, it being necessary only to produce an electromagnetic field that moves along the stator. Such stators can also be made as linear or semi-circular modules and each such module can be one or even several pole spans in length.
The armature or driven member of the open-sided motor of FIG. 1 is generally designated 20 and comprises a continuous conductor 21 formed of any suitable conductive material such as copper or aluminum. In its preferred form, the conductor is a continuous sheet coextensive with the active surface of the stator and extending throughout the full desired length of relative movement between the stator and the armature. In the illustrated embodiment, a ferromagnetic member 22, preferably of laminated construction is arranged co-extensive with the conductor 21 and secured thereto to form the return path for electromagnetic flux produced by the stator 10.
A support for the armature 20 is schematically illustrated as a pair of rollers 25 suitably supported by pedestals 26 and several of such supports can be provided to support the armature throughout its range of movement relative to the stator.
Utilization of a continuous copper sheet has the effect of producing an infinite number of conductors which are cut by the pulsating flux produced by the stator 10. In accordance with conventional induction motor theories, a current is induced in each of the infinite number of conductors in conductive plate 21 that is cut by the stator flux to produce movement of the armature in the direction of travel of the magnetic field produced by the stator.
The open-sided motor of FIG. 4 illustrates what is conveniently referred to as a two-sided motor, because the stator is provided with two primary active surfaces. More specifically, stator 30 is constructed (preferably of laminated ferromagnetic material) to provide a plurality of spaced poles 31 separated by slots 32 into each of which is placed a coil winding 33. The stator is shown as being supported on a mounting plate 35 which is secured to a suitable mounting surface 36 although the mounting and support structures form no part of this invention. The windings 33 can be connected as in FIG. with a phase shifting device such as capacitor 37 and to a suitable AC source to produce an electromagnetic field which travels in the same direction on both active surfaces of the stator. The armature or driven member 40 is similar in construction to the armatures heretofore described except that it has a generally U-shaped cross section. The armature 40 is provided with a continuous conductive inner plate surface 41 of copper or the like and a continuous ferromagnetic flux return path 42, the two being suitably joined together for simultaneous movement. Support and alignment of the armature 40 relative to the stator 30 so as to provide the desired relative movement can be achieved in any suitable manner such as rollers 44. In accordance with conventional induction motor theories as discussed in conjunction with the motor of FIGS. 1-3, an alternating electromagnetic flux is produced by the spatially displaced stator ooils to induce a current in the conductive portion of the armature. A force is produced which will move the armature [assuming the stator to be fixed in position] in the direction of movement of the electromagnetic field along the two active surfaces of the stator.
Many armature-stator assembly configurations can be provided without departing from the present invention. In FIG. 1 a stator having a single active surface is provided to cooperate with a generally flat, plate-like armature to produce linear motion. In FIG. 4, a stator having two active surfaces is shown as cooperating with a generally U-shaped armature that utilizes both active surfaces of the stator, although only a single active surface could be utilized if desired.
In FIGS. 6 and 7 there is illustrated an open-sided motor to produce a rotary output. Such a motor is shown as comprising a rotatably supported shaft 50 to which is secured a continuous conductive disc 51 and a ferromagnetic disc or plate 52 which cooperates to form the rotor of an axial air gap motor. This embodiment of the invention shows the modular nature of the stator of this invention and shows a pair of stators 55 and 56 each of which is identical to the other and is constructed in arcuate form and in accordance with the teachings of any of the heretofore described stator embodiments to place an active stator surface adjacent the conductive disc. No support structure is shown for the rotor and stators but such structure can be as desired. A single stator module can also be utilized or more than two such modules can be utilized in order to obtain the desired motor characteristics. The operation of this embodiment is in accordance with the induction motor principles heretofore described wherein the coils of each stator are connected to a multi-phase alternating current source to produce a travelling magnetic field which induces currents in the conductive disc. Of course, each stator must be energized to produce a magnetic field travelling in the same direction.
To further illustrate the flexibility of the induction motor constructions described, FIG. 8 discloses a second rotor which cooperates with the other active surface of a stator 60 such as described in connection with the embodiment of FIG, 4. The rotor discs 61 and 62 are identical except that the continuous conductive discs or plates 63 and 64 face each other and are rigidly connected to shaft 82. By suitable provision of coaxial shafts (not illustrated) the single stator members 83 and 84 can drive the rotors independently to provide two outputs.
A further variation permits simulation of the so-called double squirrel-cage motor action and in such event the copper disc winding of the rotor 63 is provided with a different impedance from that of the rotor 64. For example, rotor 63 can be provided with a conductive sheet of relatively high resistance Whereas the rotor 64 is provided with a sheet of relatively low resistance. With both rotors rigidly connected to the shafts 82, the resultant speed torque curve for the motor is as shown in FIG. 9 wherein the total torque at a given speed is the sum of the torques provided by each rotor thereby permitting construction of a desired speed torque curve with the motors of this invention.
In each of the foregoing embodiments of this invention the rotor utilized a conductive sheet or disc devoid of the high construction costs and other problems produced by conventional motors having discrete armature windings. If desired, in each of the described embodiments the armature iron can be held independently in position such that only the conductive elements moves thereby providing an extremely low mass and low cost movable element.
As will be apparent to persons skilled in the art, various modifications and adaptations of the structure above described will become readily apparent without departure from the spirit and scope of the invention, the scope of which is defined in the appended claims.
We claim:
1. An induction motor comprising an elongated stator having a ferromagnetic structure and a plurality of coils of wire distributed along its length to form two oppositely disposed active stator surfaces; means for connecting said coils to a multi-phase source of alternating current to produce an electromagnetic field that moves in the same direction along the length of both active stator surfaces; a continuous conductive member on both sides of said stator coextensive with the active surfaces thereof, said stator and conductive member being supported for relative movement; a ferromagnetic member coextensive with the active surfaces of said stator and disposed on the opposite side of said conductive member relative to said stator active surfaces.
2. The induction motor as set forth in claim 1 wherein said conductive member is U-shaped and extends throughout the desired length of relative movement between the stator and conductive member.
3. The induction motor as set forth in claim 2 wherein said ferromagnetic member is coextensive with said conductive member and secured thereto.

Cardinals rookie Jonathan Cooper adjusting to NFL
Originally published: Jun 3, 2013 - 2:57 pm
One of the new members of the unit is offensive guard Jonathan Cooper from North Carolina. Cooper was selected seventh overall in the 2013 draft and he's slowly but surely making the adjustment to the NFL.
"I mean it's getting a little bit easier every day but really just still trying to focus on learning the playbook, the physical aspect of it will be there but really just trying to be more of a technician and more mentally sound," said Cooper Monday after the start of another round of organized team activities or OTAs.
Rookies tend to struggle with some physical adjustments from college to the National Football League, but often times the biggest hurdle is information overload.
"Just the playbook, there are so many components to it, so many layers, so many different calls, so many different situations you're in that you have to be prepared for," said Cooper. "So that's been the toughest part of the transition."
Obviously being a first round draft pick, the Cardinals are expecting a lot from Cooper. He ran with the first team Monday and he has high standards for himself as well.
"I came to compete for the starting spot and if I'm given the opportunity, I'm going to try my best to take advantage of that."
The 6-foot-2, 311-pound lineman has been in Arizona for workouts from day one. His contract isn't done just yet, but Cooper doesn't seem concerned about what's going on off the field, only on it. He was never planning on holding out or not showing up.
"I honestly didn't know that was an option," he joked. "No, if I want to do what I have plans to do, then I have to be here. I can't afford to miss time. That's really just not an option for me. I'm just going to come here and show up every day, work as hard as I can and learn my playbook."
As a senior at UNC, Cooper earned First Team All-ACC and All-American honors while also winning the ACC Jacobs Blocking Trophy.
"I think he's getting so many reps, he can't help but improve. He's had a lot of things thrown at him and a lot of different looks defensively," said Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians following Monday's workout. "He's holding his own and he's not a rookie anymore; he's already had enough snaps to be a sophomore."
Heading into the draft, several analysts had Cooper as the highest-rated guard available. He's very athletic and should be able to aid in the run game as well as pass protection.
So far Cooper is trying to take advantage of all the knowledge and facilities that are available to him.
"Oh man, I've learned so much, and even when they were gone and we were just working out getting in physical shape and along with learning my plays and having extra time here, I feel like it's going to help me out tremendously."

'Oh my God, I'm going to die': Swimmer in Southern California recalls great white shark bite
MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif. - Steven Robles was an hour into his regular weekend swim off some of Southern California's most popular beaches when he came face-to-face with a great white shark.
The 7-foot-long juvenile had been trying to free itself from a fisherman's hook for about half an hour.
"It came up to the surface, it looked at me and attacked me right on the side of my chest," Robles told KABC-TV. "That all happened within two seconds, I saw the eyes of the shark as I was seeing it swim toward me. It lunged at my chest, and it locked into my chest."
As a reflex, he tried to pry open the shark's mouth.
"I was like, 'Oh my God, this is it. Oh my God, I'm going to die. This is really, this is it,'" Robles told CNN.
And then, just as quickly as it struck, the shark let go and swam away.
Robles was familiar with the waters of the Southern California coast. His Saturday morning routine included a swim from Hermosa Beach north to Manhattan Beach with fellow amateur distance swimmers, and last summer he completed a difficult swim approximately 20 miles from Santa Catalina Island to the Rancho Palos Verdes peninsula to raise money for a school in Nicaragua.
Robles had been going for 2 miles with about a dozen friends Saturday when he encountered the shark around 9:30 a.m., fellow swimmer Nader Nejadhashemi said Sunday.
"He said 'I've been bit,' and he was screaming," said Nejadhashemi, who didn't see the shark even though he was just 5 feet away.
At first Nejadhashemi thought it must be a cramp. "Then," he said, "I saw the blood."
Nejadhashemi reached his friend and checked that "all his extremities were intact," then comforted him as others in the group flagged a nearby paddle boarder.
"I don't know how we managed to push him on the paddle board but we did," he said. Once several surfers came over to help pull the board in, Robles was on his way to the shore, where paramedics treated his wounds.
He was taken to the hospital but by Sunday morning had been released. Robles did not return messages left Sunday at several numbers listed under his name.
The shark remained in the area for about 20 minutes and then disappeared into the murky water, said Rick Flores, a Los Angeles County Fire Department spokesman. The beaches — crowded for the warm holiday weekend — remained open, but a mile-long stretch was temporarily off-limits to swimmers. Police also prohibited fishing from the pier where the fisherman hooked the shark until Tuesday.
It's illegal to fish for great white sharks. The fisherman told several local media that he was trying to catch a bat ray, not a shark, and that he didn't cut the line sooner because of how many swimmers were in the water. It wasn't immediately clear whether the wildlife officials were investigating; a department spokeswoman did not return calls seeking comment.
Shark sightings are on the rise at some Southern California beaches, especially in the waters off Manhattan Beach, which is a popular spot for surfers and paddle boarders but also has long been identified as a pupping ground for white sharks. A life-sized model of a white shark is displayed outside an aquarium on the pier, with an explanation that juvenile sharks are common in the area.
Shark attacks are rare. Since 1950, there have been 101 great white shark attacks on humans off California — 13 of them resulted in deaths, the state Department of Fish and Wildlife said.
Also Saturday morning, about 200 miles up the California coast, an unidentified shark bit a surfer's board in the Pacific off Oceano. Teeth marks suggested the shark was about 8 feet, said Brent Marshall, superintendent of the Oceano Dunes state park district. The surfer was uninjured.
On Sunday, Manhattan beach was again crowded, and surfers sat offshore in the water on another warm day.

Promote Rockbuddy and Teressa Admins on Ustream.tv IRC
This petition is to get Rockbuddy and Teressa IRC Administrators on the network ustream.tv IRC Chat Server!
Ustream needs more trusted admins on the network to help manage users, at the moment they are using tools provided by another admin on the team to manage some of the network but somtimes this feature dies due to bad internet connection at time and there isn't allot of power within the bot.
Ustream needs to give them access to be able to ban people and help out with channel take overs as much as possible on ustream, at the moment, ustream has 4 admins on ustream who have that power but can sometimes be away from the computer.
Please sign this petition to make Rockbuddy and Teressa Full Ustream admins!!!
Posted by Dotcomboy17
Sadly on 9th May 2010 I left ustream helpers due to things I cant post online at this time, but hopefully, I will be back as a helper as soon as things have been sorted.

text: "With scientists unwilling to toss cats off buildings for experimental observation, science has been unable systematically to study the rate at which they live after crashing to the ground. In a 1987 study of 132 cats brought to a New York City emergency veterinary clinic after falls from high-rise buildings, 90% of treated cats survived and only 37% needed emergency treatment to keep them alive. One that fell 32 stories onto concrete suffered only a chipped tooth and a collapsed lung and was released after 48 hours. From the moment they're in the air to the instant after they hit the ground, cats' bodies are built to survive high falls, scientists say. They have a relatively large surface area in proportion to their weight, thus reducing the force at which they hit the pavement. Cats reach terminal velocity, the speed at which the downward tug of gravity is matched by the upward push of wind resistance, at a slow speed compared to large animals like humans and horses." w/ photos

Gold bars, air tickets for Bangladeshi expats
Al Ansari dangles rewards to lure more remitters
Dubai: Al Ansari Exchange, a UAE-based foreign exchange and money transfer company, has upped the ante to win the loyalty of repeat Bangladeshi customers and build new ones.
The company announced that until April 15, 2013, customers sending money to Bangladesh earn the chance to win gold bars, tickets and vouchers. Al Ansari Exchange is set to give away ten gold bars, ten air tickets and 20 National Bonds vouchers during the promotion period.
Mohammad Ali Al Ansari, managing director of Al Ansari Exchange, said the promotion will help them expand their customer size by ten per cent.
"With the launch of the latest promotion, we [also] aim at rewarding our loyal customers for choosing us. [At the same time] we aim to highlight our latest remittance methods that provide customers with real-time money transfer services."
Expatriates sending money to Bangladesh comprise a huge part of the company's customer base. "[Already,] we have witnessed a surge in our Bangladeshi customer base, particularly in the past four years. The figure currently stands at approximately ten per cent of our total transactions" Al Ansari told Gulf News.
"The Bangladeshi remittance market is very important to us and has a great potential for growth considering the total Bangladeshi population in the UAE exceeds 700,000," he added.
Quoting figures from the Central Bank of Bangladesh, Al Ansari noted that total remittance transactions from the UAE to Bangladesh soared to $2.4 billion (Dh8.8 billion) in 2012, up from $2 billion a year ago.
Regular customers will automatically qualify to enter the draw, while those who opt for "Cash Express" and "National Bonds" transactions will earn double entries.

I've been in front of computers for over 30 years now, with my roots in programming 8 bit computers, I've taken an often exciting journey which has led to becoming an expert in an enterprise product. I consider my career as starting 17 years ago, when I began my first serious role as a deployment engineer. I've seen 8 bit through to 64 bit, the rise and refinement of the interface we take for granted now, the rise of the Internet from land-line based modem access for the few, to the powerful broadband connections we have today for the masses, I saw mobile phones come into existence, and I've seen Microsoft evolve from more than a handful of employees to the company it is now, while pretty much tinkering with every OS they have released, as well as seeing an industry that has evolved around those humble beginnings to become what we have today. I'm a keen technical puzzle solver, I love to solve gnarly problems around my area of specialism. And, I love to share when I have time. I hope you enjoy the blog.
Wally Mead is back touring Europe's User Groups, and on the 2nd of July he is in the UK laying on a presentation day covering ConfigMgr 2012 (SC12CM) with his usual style and tempo.
Unfortunately, due to some very bad luck and voodoo that seems to have come our way recently, the Windows Management User Group will not be putting on the event this year, but we hope to put on a User Group event with Wally Mead again at some point.
This looks to be a great day, ConfigMgr has gone RTM since his last tour of Europe, and SP1 is not far off. The day is overflowing with technical content and opportunities to ask Wally Mead questions. It says that 1e will also be there, so even more content and opportunities abound.
Check the event out here.

|Three years into rose gardening I've learned a few lessons. I bought 30 something roses a few years ago based on photos of their blooms alone. I had no idea what to expect! I live in a high-blackspot pressure area, but otherwise a rose-friendly climate. Most of my plants did fine their first year. Some slept, some leaped, but Crocus rose really stands out as a performer. The growth rate is steady and not too fast, the blooms come in steady progression, no disease issues. The fragrance is neither absent nor exciting. The blooms aren't the most showy, but I can value a dependable, easy plant at this point above a showy bloom attached to weird growth and black-spots!
Follow-Up Postings:

|Beautiful! I love the color. I've learned a few lessons too. Divas can be exceptional but the daily workhorse HEALTHY steady bloomers are the backbone of the garden. The "chorus line" supports the "leads" in my garden.
I like Crocus Rose. Thanks for sharing the photo.
|I too started out choosing my rose bushes pretty much by bloom alone. I still like each selection for a certain reason, but what bothers me the most is some grow much much faster than others, some entirely too slow! Your crocus rose is looking very healthy and beautiful big blooms!
|I've been wanting to get that one. Others have reported it's quite reliable. Your photo is beautiful.
- Posted by farmerduck (My Page) on Tue, May 20, 14 at 15:31
|.Agreed that Crocus Rose is an outstanding rose, where I live. Mine was a band planted in the ground three years ago in unamended, poor soil. It was slow in gaining size, but has been tip hardy here in Zone 6b NJ and blackspot free. I don't spray. The cane are very lax, with thorns relatively sparsely spaced, and are thus easy to peg. It is not a beauty queen, but, in my garden, it is one of the few well-behaved, easy going roses.

|Ooh, Crocus Rose sounds gorgeous! Love your pictures :)

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Matthew Hayes scored 19 points to lead Pleasant Grove past Santa Monica, 73-57, to win the California Division I boys' championship at Sleep Train Pavilion in Sacramento Friday.
Malik Thames had 16 and Colfax Norquist added 13 for Pleasant Grove (28-6), which took a 9-8 lead midway through the first quarter and never trailed again.
Chris Smith led Santa Monica (29-7) with 20 points. The team's leading scorer Jordan Mathews played only 12 minutes before fouling out with 7:15 left in the game and finished with just nine points.
The victory gave Pleasant Grove its first state title.
The win was the first for a Northern California team out of the six games played Friday.

Washington State's recruiting class has 14 members at this point, and the group ranks 52nd nationally, according to the 247Sports composite, as well as sixth in the Pac-12. There isn't any real headlining talent in the class, as the rankings imply, but the Cougars have built a solid foundation of three-star players.
Feaomoengalu Tapa, a three-star defensive end, is Washington State's most recent verbal. Tapa committed on Oct. 23. The Cougars also added three-star tackle Sean Krepsz and three-star linebacker Chandler Leniu in September.
Here's an overview of some of WSU's top commitments:
Leniu became Washington State's top-rated prospect when he verbaled on Sept. 26. The Bellflower (Calif.) St. John Bosco High School product is considered the No. 649 overall player in the 2014 class and the 27th-best inside linebacker in the nation.
Braden Eggert is a three-star offensive tackle from Napa (Calif.) High School. He is regarded as the 60th-best prospect at his position and the No. 673 overall player in the country.
Inglewood (Calif.) High School wide receiver Zaire Andre is also a three-star recruit, and he is the No. 690 overall prospect in the country, as well as the No. 91 receiver.
Washington State dipped into Florida to nab three-star running back Keith Harrington, who is from Northeast High School in St. Petersburg. He's ranked as the No. 18 all-purpose back, the No. 109 player from Florida and the No. 774 overall prospect.
Stability coming
Washington State's current recruiting class certainly is not impressive when compared to the rest of the Pac-12. But when one considers the state of the roster, even an average class presents an opportunity for an upgrade in talent and increased stability.

The FAA published a new AD on March 21st for the Cessna Citation 560XL. The AD was prompted by reports of jammed or stiff rudder actuation after water froze on the rudder bias cables and pulleys in the tail cone at high altitude.
"Birdbrain…" It's more an insult to our feathered brethren than to the human deemed short on intellect.
The NTSB has issued its final report on the first of several incidents in which Cessna Citation 560XL Excels encountered rudder binding while in flight. The Board ruled that the manufacturer's inadequate initial design and subsequent modifications of the aircraft's tailcone allowed moisture to collect and freeze around rudder cables during flight above the freezing level, resulting in a loss of rudder authority. The Board cited the FAA's lack of oversight of the manufacturer's design and production as a contributing factor.
The FAA has issued an Airworthiness Directive for the Gulfstream Aerospace Galaxy and Gulfstream 200, citing cracked nuts found on the aircraft's production line during routine post-assembly inspection. Investigation revealed that the cracks resulted from hydrogen embrittlement combined with high hardness.
As engineers design more structural components using composite materials, the resin transfer molding (RTM) process is seeing increased use in business jets. Bombardier's Belfast facility is employing RTM to build Learjet 85 wings, and Gulfstream vendor North Coast Composites of Cleveland, Ohio, is using RTM to make G250 rudders.
Cessna Citation 560XL, Birmingham, Ala., Dec. 13, 2010–The twinjet experienced rudder binding while landing at Birmingham-Shuttlesworth Airport at the conclusion of a Part 135 flight from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey. The Excel landed safely with no injuries to the passenger and two pilots. A post-flight examination of the tail cone revealed ice around the rudder control cables and pulleys.
Cessna Citation 560XL, Toledo, Ohio, Dec. 1. 2010–The NetJets-operated Excel experienced a loss of rudder control while landing in VMC at Toledo Express Airport at the end of a Part 135 flight from Monmouth Executive Airport in New Jersey. The twinjet landed safely, and post-flight examination revealed that the airplane's rudder control cables and pulleys inside the tailcone were sheathed in ice.
The high level of technology employed in Embraer's newest business jet family, the Legacy 450 and 500 program, enables detailed exploration and development to take place much further ahead of first flight, according to Eduardo Camelier, chief test pilot for the Brazilian manufacturer.
The single-engine turboprop was destroyed but its ATP-certified pilot was unharmed when it departed the runway after touchdown at Montgomery County Airpark. The pilot told investigators that after he crossed the runway threshold at 81 knots and touched down normally, the TBM began to drift to the left. He attempted unsuccessfully to correct the drift by applying right rudder, and then began a
Eastham Aviation, a Houston owner of a Hawker Beechcraft Premier 1A, filed a complaint against Hawker Beechcraft on January 19, asking that the manufacturer take back the jet because of three alleged and irreparable instances of runaway rudder trim. Eastham purchased the jet in 2006.
