Abstract: The present invention provides a device designed to increase the accuracy of both the throwing, bouncing, propelling by stick and kicking of a baseball, football, lacrosse ball or soccer ball. The apparatus is constructed of a frame, for example of aluminum tubing. A net is attached to or hung over the aluminum tubing to provide a series of pouches aligned horizontally at various heights. These pouches provide target areas for a ball. The pouches may be designed to allow the ball to drop from a pouch it enters into a second pouch or to the bottom of the device for easy removal. The device is held by a base that may have wheels and may be steadied by one or more transverse supports running across the bottom or the back of the base.

Abstract: A system and method for providing variable motion-resisting loads for a side stick controller on an aircraft where the primary resistive load is provided by a mechanical spring mechanism which is augmented or supplemented by an electric servo motor and electric servo motor linkage system.

Abstract: An improved flight control system with an enhanced unified graphic mistrim indicator where the flight control computer provides signals to a single mistrim indicator wherein the signals represent the status of the control surfaces of the aircraft and the mistrim indicator displays a single movable reference marker, which is caused to be translated vertically in the event of pitch mistrim, is caused to be rotated right or left in the case of roll mistrim conditions, is caused to be translated right or left in the case of yaw mistrim conditions or is caused to be moved in a combination of ways either translating vertically, horizontally or rotating in order to represent a combination of pitch, roll or yaw mistrim.

Abstract: The present invention includes a fastener strap comprised of a length of fabric having end sections which can be fastened together to create a loop. Intermediate the end sections on the interior surface of the loop, there is a fastener affixed thereto. This intermediate fastener cooperates with corresponding fasteners which are affixed to ski poles or other articles to be supported. The size of the loop is such that the mounting of the poles onto the intermediate fastener leaves a loop of material remaining which can be utilized as a hook or a handle to otherwise support or carry the poles in the fastener strap of the invention.
