Hey, look who was in Sunday’s issue of the Huntsville Times.
(Glenn Baeske of The Huntsville Times took that picture.)
The article touches on the Hermes system that we’ve been developing to help helicopters automatically pick up cargo and then guide them to the delivery point, which has a lot of potential applications for everything from medical heliflights to logging to resupplying soldiers in the field. I wrote our original proposal for the project back in 2005, and now, five years later, it’s on the cusp of being a real honest-to-goodness product. A lot of very smart people have put in a tremendous amount of work to make that happen, and I’m thrilled to see it all coming together.
So that’s what I saw on Sunday! How was your weekend?

As your mother, I am so proud of you.
You’re also the most photogenic one…. How did you get to be such hotness?
It’s nice to put faces to the names you speak of when we’re talking about work.
[Don't worry, AOS folks. He talks nicely about you.]
When I first glanced at the picture I thought y’all we’re making a new kind of coffee maker.
congrats on the article and at getting the project to fruition.
FANTASTIC!
As one of your friends that’s kept you amused on many trips out here to Phoenix for this project, I’m glad to see that it’s working out.
Great picture!
Whoa! Stephen, this is awesome! Congrats, buddy. I am very happy for you! There is nothing like the feeling of a long-term project at work coming to fruition. (Additionally, when the project goes consumer, I’ll be getting one so I can have that kick-ass four LED array for the roof of my house.)
Then all the helicopters will land on your rooftop!
