Andreas von Zadora-Gerlof is a world class gem sculptor and the designer of Zadora timepieces.

Bill Gates and Johnny Depp wear Zadora timepieces.

Von Zadora-Gerlof's family left Europe and settled in Canada's Prince Charlotte Islands (Haida Gwaii), where he was born in September 1957. A hunting accident left his dominant hand paralyzed as a child. His physical therapy was to sculpt with the world's best totem carvers.

Piston-engined airplanes run on avgas, which is very similar to automotive gasoline, but higher octane.

Turbine-engined airplanes like jets, turboprops and many helicopters run on jet fuel. Jet fuel is very similar to kerosene or diesel fuel, but is highly filtered and usually contains additives to prevent formation of water-ice crystals in the fuel system.

By adjusting the speed of tail rotor, which points to the side, the pilot can turn the helicopter in flight.

The main upper rotor actually plays only a minor part in making helicopter turn. The part supplying most of the control is the tail rotor. Because the main rotor is spinning in one direction, without a tail rotor, the body of the helicopter would spin around in circles in the opposite direction. The reason for this is explained in the first part of Newton's third law of motion: for every action there is an equal and opposite action. The torque generated to make the rotor turn also exerts torque on the body of the helicopter "willing" it to spin the opposite direction. However, the tail rotor spins, pushing air to the side. This creates force in the opposite direction, keeping the helicopter stable. By simply adjusting the speed of the tail rotor, the helicopter can be turned in flight.

They are eliptical in shape with the leading edge having an airfoil shape, meaning curved across the top to create lift. The rear side of the blade is longer and narrower allowing the air to pass over it easier. It looks like a cross section of a airplane's wing for the full length of the blade.

Bell Helicopter does not nessicarily clean engines. On the helicopters that the company owns it's mechaincs perform a "compressor wash". High pressure soap and water are run through the engine while it is turning to remove carbon and debris from the compressor blades within the engine and from the combustin chamber. Other Bell Helicopter engines owned by others are sent to facilicites authorized by the engine maker to dismantle and clean and repair the engines.

Helicopter parenting - parents that rush in and try to save their kids from everything and are "over-involved" in their kid's life. It's hard to know what's right and wrong when it comes to kids. When they want to protect them, don't ever want them to see them hurt, and they want to be involved in their lives. But can they overdo it? Yes they can, there's even a name for - "Helicopter Parenting".... because they're always hovering!

PAVE is a U.S. Air Force program name relating to electronic systems. Some state that it is just a codename, rather than an acronym. Others point to the definition of PAVE in some military glossaries as "Precision Avionics Vectoring Equipment" or "Precision Acquisition Vehicle Entry".

The Navy does, but the Marine Corps still uses twin engined variants of the UH-1 Iroquois. The latest model developed was the UH-1Z.

Capacity can mean a lot of things with a helicopter.

If you mean crew capacity?

It's 2 (pilot and gunner) technically 4 as there are emergency seating available on the outside of the chopper just to the side of the pilot on the wing stubs however this has only (to the best of my knowlage) been used once in afgahnistan by a British Pilot.

Capacity on a helicopter is generally a mixture of fuel and ordanance.

The more fuel you carry the less you can theoretically lift-off with. With a full fuel load the maximum take off weight is 23,000 lbs ( taken from wikipedia)

Do you mean a line graph? In most graphs you have a vertical axis and a horizontal axis. Usually there is data, numbers, or other factors on each. The horizontal is the first number or data in the pair of numbers if you are going to graph it. Start at the bottom and move up until you are next to the number on the vertical axis.

Anywhere from $17,500 annualy for a private in the milatary up to around $100,000 for some private sector pilot/mechanic jobs. Average is around $50,000 annualy.

If I remember correctly, the 95 SL2 has a 12.8 gallon tank.

The AH-1 Cobra Attack Helicopter was the United States Military's FIRST "Attack Helicopter" that was designed and built specifically for war; and was deployed directly into combat in Vietnam in 1966/67 (sources vary). The same company that developed the UH-1 Huey built the AH-1 Cobra, Bell. The Cobra fired a 7.62mm NATO cartridge (today's civilian .308 Winchester rifle cartridge) from a belly (under the nose) mounted mini-gun (electrically powered US Civil War designed multi-barreled GATLING GUN); and fired 2.75 inch rockets. The Cobra attacked and damaged numerous NVA PT-76 amphibious light tanks and NVA T54/55 medium tanks with it's 2.75" rockets, during Operation Lam Son 719 in 1971 (the US Army's last major offensive of the Vietnam War); which occurred in Laos on the South Vietnamese border, during the invasion of Laos that year. Although the Cobra was the first designed and deployed gunship (attack helicopter), it was the UH-1 Huey (Utility Helicopter) that actually was the first (modified into a...) successful attack helicopter, and it was the UH-1 that actually DESTROYED the first tanks in combat by the US Army's NEW MISSILE; the TOW Anti-Armor Missile(Tube Launched, Optically tracked, Wired Guided-TOW), during the NVA's "Spring Offensive" in 1972 (aka Easter Offensive). UH-1's equipped with TOW missiles destroyed 24 tanks during the NVA offensive in 1972. During the Vietnam War, nearly 12,000 US helicopters were deployed, and over 5,000 helicopters were destroyed, of that number, about 270 Cobra helicopters were destroyed. Cobra's flew over 1 million combat hours during the Vietnam War. Cobra's utilized by the US Military, primarily the US Marines after Vietnam, were up-graded into SUPER "Cobras" with extra engines and cannons to replace the machine gun gatling guns (mini-guns). The US Army transitioned from the Cobra into the current APACHE Attack Helicopter.

It depends on what type of helicopter.

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), U.S. Department of Transportation, has several advisory circulars available free of charge for heliport design. Check the FAA.gov site. Suggestions for the markers and markings can be found in the FAA publication titled "Heliport Design, Advisory Circular 150/5390-2A". See Link with some details and recommendations.

In direct battle? Yes, probably. The Hind is quite bulky, and meant as more of an armoured aerial troop transport. The Apache is designed purely for strike-and-destroy.

Yes. They land on the ice, typically.

Yes you can fly a helicopter by using Bluetooth function on your smart phone. There are numerous toy helicopters which are compatible with Bluetooth function.
