#51 Carl Dietrich, Jump Aero: MOSAIC - a transformational opportunity

An in-depth conversation with Carl Dietrich, Founder/CEO/CTO of Jump Aero – as he explains everything you want to know about Jump Aero as well as MOSAIC, the proposed Modernization of Special Airworthiness Certification rule – what Carl considers a transformational opportunity. We start with Carl's professional arc through aviation from the Terrafugia days to Jump Aero, including involvement with the Part 23 rewrite and ASTM standards. We discuss the history of Light Sport Aircraft: when and why it was introduced and the significance to the GA market. The heart of the discussion is Carl's context to what led up to the proposed MOSAIC rule. We discuss when MOSAIC was first proposed and why, how it changes the LSA definition, and, very cool, how significant this change could be to the growth of the GA and AAM markets, including  to potentially create a faster path to market for certain types of aircraft.

In today’s episode we welcome back previous guest, friend of the show and all-round CFD expert, Patrick Hanley. The last time Patrick was on the show we spoke about his experience as an independent CFD software vendor. This time we’re hearing about his adventures designing “flying cars” as part of the mobility startup Terrafugia. We cover a lot of ground, including, but not limited to: • How speed of execution is critical in the sprint to market & how different CFD tools can play into that (including a huge shout-out to Pointwise) • The value of understanding what’s gone before, not only in terms of aircraft development, but also code development & being able to mine those archives to give you an unfair advantage today • The importance of being able to select the right simulation tool for the job, being able to get multiple approaches to agree & the alarm bells that should go off when they don’t Shownotes • Connect with Patrick on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/hanleyinnovations/ * Check out Patrick’s CFD codes at http://hanleyinnovations.com/ • Check out the Terrafugia website for more details of their vehicle concepts - https://terrafugia.com/

If you were one of the people who dreamed of a future filled with flying cars and virtual reality, well your dreams weren't too far off from where we are in 2016. While companies like Terrafugia are knee-deep in development of real-life flying cars, virtual reality is just beginning to take off, and not just in video games. Medical Realities  leveraging virtual reality in the operating room for surgery studies.  #VRinOR  - hashtag circulating on Twitter about the new technologies in surgery centers. Meditation technology by MUSE.  NOSTALAB is a healthcare "innovation think tank" that focuses on the emergence of digital health and the implications to health, wellness, medicine and the pharmaceutical industry.

Expanded Perspectives

On this weeks episode of Expanded Perspectives the boys start off by talking about how according to Massachusetts-based Terrafugia, a full-size unmanned prototype is expected to be ready by 2018. The firm's concept car has fold-out wings with twin electric motors attached to each end. These motors allow the TF-X to move from a vertical to a horizontal position, and will be powered by a 300 horsepower engine. Thrust will be provided by a ducted fan, and the vehicle will have a cruising speed of 200 mph (322 km/h), along with a 500-mile (805 km) flight range. Terrafugia said its aim is to provide 'true door-to-door transportation,' with the vehicle capable of being parked in a home garage like an ordinary car. Then, they bring up how surprising research, revealed for the first time in an exhibition opening next week at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, exposes that many were buried in new and decorated coffins, patched together from pieces of older coffins; some made only a few generations earlier. Then, a fast-growing tumbleweed dubbed "hairy panic" has taken over a street in a rural Australian town with homes and gardens clogged with the weed. Residents in Wangaratta, Victoria, have complained they have had to spent hours clearing away the weed only for it to come back the next day. Extremely dry conditions and winds mean that the weed, with a Latin name of Panicum effusum, is engulfing homes sometimes up to roof height. Then, Kyle brings up a new article posted by Gregg Newkirk on his blog the Week in Weird, about the interesting real life story of  Emily Isabella Burt, Georgia's real life Werewolf. After the break, the guys get into one of the most bizarre stories of all time, simply known as Mel's Hole. In 1997, Art Bell, of "Coast to Coast AM," the popular syndicated late night radio talk show, received a fax from a man named Mel Waters. The fax explained that Mel had what appeared to be a bottomless pit on his property near Manastash, Washington. Soon thereafter, Art booked Mel on his radio show, where Mel explained what would become known as "Mel's Hole" to the world. Mel was interviewed over the phone, and at the time of the interview he was not at home, but in the town of Ellensburg, WA. Mel had bought this property a few years earlier, and the previous owners had owned the land for over thirty years prior to that. The neighbors knew of the hole quite well, and would regularly dump their garbage in it, but the hole would never fill. It was a round pit, with a stone retaining wall surrounding it, and extending down, about 15 feet below the ground surface. Beyond the wall, the hole bore through dirt and bedrock, and from there, darkness as far as the eye could see. Mel had never met anybody who could remember when the hole was not there. The stories only grew into one of the most incredible stories ever told. Thanks for listening to Expanded Perspectives. Have a great week!!
