Abstract: A system for providing security of an aircraft in flight by providing a signal transmitted to all Air Traffic Control facilities within transmission range of the aircraft that emergency access to the cockpit is required and a unique time stamped signal generated by an Air Traffic Control facility to allow access to the cockpit or assume control of the aircraft flight control path in response to analysis of video/audio signals by the Air Traffic Control facility from cameras disposed in the passenger, galley and cockpit areas of the aircraft which are activated by the unique signal from the Air Traffic Control facility.

Abstract: A sighting apparatus for a firearm includes a video camera capable of capturing and tracking the path of a projectile The captured images are taken generally concurrently with the firing of the first projectile, and with the projectile reaching the target. A video display includes a reticle positioned at the center of the display to permit the user to aim the firearm by positioning the reticle over the target. A processor receives captured images from the camera. An output interface delivers information to the video display to enable the video display to display images of the target area. Software and a processor determine the flight path of the projectile and the point where the projectile impacts or passes by the intended target and adjusts for the variance between the two points by moving the image on the display.

Abstract: Premium financed insurance products and methods which can eliminate the requirement for excess collateral beyond the policy itself are disclosed, wherein the premiums for an insurance policy covering the life of an insured are paid by a loan, and wherein the loan agreement, the policy and/or related documents include a provision or are accompanied by an agreement for pooling of the death benefit of the policy with the death benefit amounts derived from other premium financed policies in the pool, wherein in the event of a cancellation event the loan for the cancelled policy is repaid with interest on a pro-rata basis from and out of the death benefits of other policies in the pool. In an embodiment, a second policy or rider to the first policy is subject to pooling, wherein the second policy offsets the risks associated with the lack of excess collateral previously required.
