Summary

Autopilot Planes explores how airplanes achieve autonomous flight, diving into the integration of autopilot systems, artificial intelligence (AI), and satellite navigation. It reveals how these technologies have converged to revolutionize modern air travel. Intriguingly, early autopilots primarily focused on stabilizing the aircraft, a far cry from today's systems that actively manage and optimize entire flight operations. Another fascinating aspect is the use of machine learning algorithms to predict turbulence and optimize fuel consumption, showcasing the potential of AI in aviation. The book examines the evolution of autopilot technology, from electromechanical origins to sophisticated digital implementations, highlighting the crucial role of satellite navigation systems like GPS. By providing essential background on aerodynamics and flight control principles, it makes complex concepts accessible. Each chapter builds upon the previous one, starting with fundamental concepts and progressing to advanced topics such as AI in flight management and the challenges of GNSS signal integrity. Autopilot Planes offers a comprehensive and data-driven overview of autonomous flight, supported by real-world case studies and expert insights. It details how computer science, electrical engineering, and aerospace engineering intersect to create these intricate systems. This approach makes it a valuable resource for aviation enthusiasts, students, engineers, and anyone curious about the future of aviation technology.

    As popular as birdhouses are, many are designed with aesthetics in mind, rather than the bird's preferences and needs. Not so for the projects in Making Bird-Friendly Birdhouses. Lifelong birder Mel "Bird Man Mel" Toellner and pro woodworker Matt Maguire walk readers step-by-step through 15+ projects for safe birdhouses that birds find conducive to their natural nesting habitats. They begin with a comprehensive introduction to why birdhouses are so important, and why the birdhouses should be created with specific birds in mind like bluebirds, wrens, chickadees, owls and even bats! With additional sections on distribution maps, detailed plans, mounting instructions, and tips on attracting birds to your yard, it has everything you need to create a successful backyard haven for your winged friends.
