Abstract: An apparatus and system for preventing a hijacker from intentionally causing an aircraft to crash into a structure such as a building. Protected structures or areas are equipped with transmitters which transmit a coded signal when an aircraft is detected inside a minum safe range. Upon receiving the coded signals, a protective control unit on-board the aircraft overrides any commands from the pilot cockpit and automatically diverts the aircraft to avoid a collision. When the aircraft is a safe distance from the protected structure, the protective control unit deactivates and the controls are restored to the pilot cockpit. In an alternative embodiment, the protective control unit can be activated and controlled remotely to land a hijacked aircraft.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for diagnosing and treating Amygdala Related Transitory Disorders, comprising selecting a patient who has symptoms suggesting ARTD, stimulating said patient's amygdala with a magnetic field, and determining whether said stimulus with a magnetic field is capable of inducing or aggravating symptoms of ARTD. Additional embodiments comprise a method to determine the lowest dose of an anticonvulsant that will effectively control ARTD, and methods of using electromagnetic stimuli to treat ARTD by interfering with kindling or desensitizing the amygdala.
