NCAM SATS

Our vision is to create, a high mobility 21st Century personal transportation system utilizing small airplanes and small airports, in partnership with NASA’s Small Aircraft Transportation System (SATS) program,

NCAM’s ( a nonprofit, 501 (c) (3) organization), mission was to coordinate, integrate and demonstrate the technical work and products of its members and its NASA and FAA partners, foster technology transfer and standards needed for commercialization.

NCAM is national in scope with industry, aviation authorities and academic research organizations.

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), in partnership with the Department of Transportation/Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and state & local aviation and airport authorities, leads a new research & development program for developing and demonstrating technologies needed for a Small Aircraft Transportation System (SATS). The project’s initial mission is to prove that four new operating capabilities will enable safe and affordable access to virtually any runway in the nation in most weather conditions. These new operating capabilities rely on on-board computing, advanced flight controls, Highway in the Sky displays, and automated air traffic separation and sequencing technologies. For detailed information about NASA’s SATS program please go to sats.nasa.gov, you can also download a in PDF format (size 5 MB) tri-fold of the SATS program.

NASA and NCAM envision that SATS will give more time to more people, by satisfying the emerging public demand for safe, higher-speed mobility and increased accessibility to suburban, rural and remote communities.

The SATS benefits include improved standards of living and quality of life for the nation in the new global economy. SATS technology innovations will provide the nation with:

1. Economic development for communities of all sizes enabled by localized air accessibility.
2. Choices to bypass highway and hub-and-spoke transportation systems delays.
3. An efficient means for intermodal connectivity between small airports and the global aviation system.
4. An exportable transportation revolution with affordable “instant infrastructure” for developing nations around the world.

“What could they be doin’, mister?” a youthful trooper near Ronan requested.

“I have no idea. Just sit tight, and we’ll see. And we’ll handle ’em again. Got that, soldier?”

“Yessir,” came a reluctant voice.

However the sounds in the evening weren’t individuals of the regiment rallying. There have been odd clanks and eerie rushes of air. Occasionally an unusual light performed around the fog just like a small but brilliant match struck behind someone’s back.

Finally, seven harsh shapes lumbered forth in the darkness, putting on some kind of gadgets lying on their backs. Within their hands they transported lengthy hoses assigned by metallic mister nozzles. Burning black gemstones were fixed towards the finishes. The firelight in the flickering embers illuminated the Confederates’ wild faces like angry devils.

Perdition’s Daughter

Ronan all of a sudden recognized who he was fighting. “Run, boys! It’s Hunley’s Demons!” he screamed because he backed toward the horses connected behind Dicks Sporting Goods coupons, however it was past too far. The evening all of a sudden exploded in gouts of freakish flame. The males within the line were engulfed in fire. Most dropped their weapons and staggered about blindly. The searing soldiers smashed into one another, melding their burning flesh and joining inside a terrible chorus of destruction and Hellfire.

“Run!” Ronan screamed again because he looked in the infamous Digital rebel regiment. A couple of youthful substitutes did because they were advised for Dick’s Sporting Goods coupons, but his veterans wouldn’t budge. Individuals which were still able was using their carbines and targeted in to the flames.

The veterans fired futilely with the smoke and fire as Ronan ongoing to demand retreat. He found themself in the horses before he recognized it. “Run!” he screamed. “Run, you fools!”

“Run!” Ronan screamed because he awoke from his nightmare.
