But you can't do this undetected. The BBC article doesn't explain that this is not over by the terminal. This is the east ramp, where private and small commercial operators are parked. You have to cross a huge open area in order to get to the large commercial planes.
No, it's not. This happened on the east ramp. It connects to the other runway, but there's a fair bit of space there, and they'll be noticed.
Fairbanks is in a favorable position for flights going over the pole, so we see a number of planes larger than the 737. The runway was lengthened some years ago to accommodate these planes.
The Fairbanks airport is also used by small private planes. The east ramp, where the incidents occurred, is where the small commercial operators, and the private planes are parked. In order to get over where the operators are, you have to cross a large open area. I doubt that this can happen undetected.
This airport has always served private pilots, as well as commercial operators. The incidents happened on the east ramp, where people need access to their private plans. In order to be a threat to the large commercial operations, you need to cross a large open area.
This is about where the incidents were happening. They weren't driving past 737s, but they were driving by many smaller aircraft. The east ramp isn't secured like the west ramp is. There are lots of private plans, and several small companies serving bush communities. Doesn't make the drivers any smarter, though.
Here is a pretty good list of CAD software available for Linux.
At home, I use Draftsight and FreeCAD. I had trouble with FreeCAD in the past, but it works quite well new. I tried gcad3d, but couldn't get used to it. I also used Cycas when I was designing a house, but it's a little different. Varicad is very nice, but it's too pricey for me.
Plus, there's <1% of the land up in Alaska that's actually owned privately. The rest is owned either by the Feds, the State, or the Natives.
You misstate the case slightly. Native land is private land under ANCSA. Native Corporation land can, and has been, sold. Further, the selection of land by the state has had a strong focus on private ownership and development.
While it changes slowly, the 1% number isn't static. (Sorry to pick at nits, but you try to present a picture that's static, when it's not.)
You've astounded me further. My first guess after looking over your project was that you would be lucky to get any users at all. I'm not, by any possible stretch an expert in your field, so don't take my opinion with even a grain of salt. (I design safety improvements for roads in an arctic environment. It seems possible, though, that somebody might use your specialty to help with mine. I love convergence.)
Good luck with your project, and thanks for the hearty chuckle.
p.s. You inspired me to take a second look. Now, I *really* wish I had a use for your project. You've been extremely thorough. I couldn't finish your FAQ without other references, and I seriously doubt that I have even a rudimentary understanding of what you're doing. Again, I wish you luck, as you've clearly worked hard to make your own (luck.)
I'm sorry to say that I've no use for what you've put together; I really wish I did, though. You made me chuckle at the end of a series of really long days. Thank you very much.
Yahoo has joined the ranks of large online businesses. ..
Yahoo aren't big? They just spent a $billion on Tumblr. I can think of several large companies near me, but the nearest $billion+ company headquarters is 1500 miles from me. I know that Yahoo isn't the size of Google, but by whose measure are they not large? Should that have read "OTHER large online businesses?"
No Person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the Age of twenty five Years, and been seven Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen.
Yes, you need to be human, unless you know to make a donkey a citizen.
I'm sometimes unsure that things would work out that way. The Whiskey Rebellion was, in part, US soldiers shooting at rebels. Then, there's also Kent State to consider.
I want to think that soldiers wouldn't shoot at US citizens in a popular uprising, but I'm unsure that it would work out that way in practice.
I've found that the bigger benefit comes the second year. The area I'm in is suffering a particularly bad onslaught this year because of an unusual spring, and a wet previous summer. While they are fairly bad at my house (I'm on ~9 acres, with ~1 cleared,) I've still found them livable. Last summer was the second year I had the magnet, and was absolutely delighted with how free I was from mosquitoes.
Bring it inside for several hours, then keep it in while it starts. Where I live, the weather can be highly variable. I've found that a cold, rainy day can cause an error, even if it's already running. Getting it to start on any day not sunny and warm is an effort in futility, unless I bring it inside.
I have a Mosquito Magnet out in my yard running on propane that emits CO2 and heat. I empty hundreds of mosquitoes out of the thing every week. It has another chemical attractant, but I rarely replace that, because the thing is effective without it.
Wouldn't the CO2 from dry ice just sink to the ground? CO2 is heavier than air at STP, and cold CO2 would just be worse.
Bandying about a figure like "2% of the Sahara Desert" is much more than just a little disingenuous. I did my own little quick bit of math, and ignoring the high efficiency and massive conservation I bit is included in your 2%, realize a truly astounding number of panels. Google says that the Sahara is about 3 629 000 mi^2. A Sunforce 150W panel is 62X33.2 inches of about 14.3 ft^2. A tiny bit more math yields an estimate of 7.08 trillion panels. That's a lot of panels.
After I did the math above, I made a few gross assumptions, and found that the 2% number really wouldn't involve high efficiency and massive conservation. It rather looks like we'd all have electricity to burn. It's still an, em, intimdating number of panels, though.

We have a runway big enough for the Antonov AN225.

They already know what you're doing without the camera and microphone. Cameras and microphones are just a distraction.

Not even the slightest hope of an update for my N810, then?

I think that you've missed a bit of recent news.
I'm sometimes unsure that things would work out that way. The Whiskey Rebellion was, in part, US soldiers shooting at rebels. Then, there's also Kent State to consider.
I want to think that soldiers wouldn't shoot at US citizens in a popular uprising, but I'm unsure that it would work out that way in practice.
I meant that with a bit of humour, but I live at 65 D North Latitude. A longer summer might be nice ;-).
You're welcome! Anything to help.
