Abstract: A device for removing debris, such as insects and ice, from an aerodynamic structure of an aircraft and in which the aerodynamic structure has upper and lower surfaces separated by a leading edge extending along the length of the aerodynamic structure. The device includes a spine positionable so as to extend between the upper and lower surfaces over the leading edge of the aerodynamic structure, a scraping edge carried by the spine facing a direction that extends along the length, and a drive mechanism configured to move the spine in the direction so that the scraping edge scrapes debris from along the length of the aerodynamic structure. The spine is configured to bias the scraping edge against the aerodynamic structure.

Abstract: A panel for an aircraft is disclosed. The panel has a body with an integral conductor for the transmission of electrical power and/or signals therethrough.

Abstract: A print job handling system, the system at least includes: a network adapted to interconnect at least one computer and peripheral devices; a plurality of network printers coupled to the network, and adapted to execute print jobs; and at least one printer control panel coupled to at least one of the network printers; wherein the control panel at least includes a control panel display adapted to display information about currently pending print jobs that have been sent to the control panel's associated network printer, along with an indication of the ability of the control panel's associated network printer to execute pending print jobs; and wherein the control panel at least includes an input mechanism adapted to allow a network user to, via the control panel and upon an indication that a print job cannot be executed or executed satisfactory to the user, re-route a print job from the control panel's associated printer to an alternate network printer.
