Palmdale, California, Jet Time Exposure, 1977
"The magnificent jet propels air safety to new heights, yet accidents still occur. Records show that takeoff and landing remain the critical phases of flight. One long-range solution is increased automation. A Lockheed TriStar touches down 'hands off' at Palmdale, California; a time exposure by a remotely operated camera attached to the aircraft's vertical tail fin blurs city and runway lights."

—From "The Air-Safety Challenge," August 1977, National Geographic magazine

这架豪华的喷气式飞机将飞行安全推到了新高度，然而事故仍然发生。记录表明飞机起飞和着陆仍然是飞行的危险阶段。一种长远的解决方法是提高飞机的自动化控制。一架洛克希德三星客机在加州的棕榄岛自动降落。一部捆绑在飞机垂直尾翼的远程操作照相机的定时曝光模糊了城市和飞机跑道的灯光。
