Action Project Presentaion
Sean’s presentation about athletes being over paid affected my thinking on how they should get paid. I think that they shouldn’t get paid that much especially if the are going to just waste there money on thing they don’t need. In his presentation he said that most athletes declare bankruptcy with in a few years of retirement. It affected me by realizing how over paid athletes are and I think there pay should be desreased.

Air Force Calls For Unmanned Cargo Aircraft
This week I read the article about an unmanned AIR FORCE cargo plane. The AIR FORCE wants an unmanned cargo plane for drop supplies in hazardous area, such as area under heavy fire. I think this would be a go idea for the AIR FORCE considering that a lot of aircraft already use fly by wire on fighter jets. So this would be a step in the right direction. This could save the lives of the pilot and crew if any thing happened during a supply drop. Though some would still want to be there in case of a computer malfunction. This also raise the question what if a enemy some gain control of the plane. Then what would happen there would have to be so type of fail safe. They also talk about the capabilities of the plane it would have to have vertical take off or a short runway take off. It also has to be recoverable by ship and be able to land on rough surfaces during a combat mission. So I think there is a long way to go but it's not out of reach.
