  • Publication number: 20030055540
    Abstract: The invention disclosed herein is a computerized control system for aircraft which will prevent catastrophic damage and loss of life associated with terrorists hijacking large aircraft and using them as flying bombs to destroy buildings, military bases and government installations, and to kill people. The system works stand-alone or with existing aircraft equipment to monitor aircraft position, velocity, and acceleration and give warnings to the pilot and to authorities when an aircraft enters a prohibited airspace. The system further incorporates an override system which will take control of an aircraft which has entered or is about to enter a designated prohibited three-dimensional area. It also includes a code-entered override, which can be transmitted to the pilot via radio, in the event that the aircraft is damaged and must land in a prohibited area such as at a military base.

  • Patent number: 6164672
    Abstract: The invention disclosed herein is a vehicle which attaches to an existing flexible hockey equipment bag which enables the bag to be easily transported via wheels, instead of hoisting it over one's shoulder awkwardly. Hockey sticks can be inserted into the engaging jaws, permitting the apparatus and attached bag to be maneuvered using the hockey sticks as a handle. A locking compartment is utilized for a player to put valuables while the bag is unattended. Also a provision for locking the bag to a stationary object has been included. This invention allows for a hockey player to keep the advantages of a flexible bag (i.e. fits inside a car keeping equipment warm), while being able to move the bag on its wheels and secure valuables when unattended.
