state meet who also won the 800-meter run on Thursday took home another gold medal and a state record after winning the Class 4A 1,600 with a time of 4 minutes Bristow was the UIL Class 4A runner-up in the same event last season losing only to former teammate Hannah Stuart who now runs at the University of Missouri In the Class 4A boys Canyon narrowly missed another gold as Ryan Fernandez took home the silver medal with a time of 4:18.19 His teammate Lathan Lewter was fourth in 4:21.50 Fernandez finished second in the mile at the 2024 UIL state track meet The Bristow Police Department

threat to Bristow schools and general news updates from News 9 delivered right to your inbox How else does one explain the phenomenal and head-shaking running of Canyon High junior Addyson Bristow at the 2025 UIL State Track and Field meet on Thursday Anchoring Canyon’s state-record setting 1600 Relay Putting on a performance in the conversation for the greatest day an Amarillo-area athlete has ever put together on the track at the state meet Bristow’s three gold medal performance was the catalyst in Canyon finishing with 45 team points and runner-up to state champion Brownwood (64 points) in the Class 4A team competition Canyon coach Ray Baca said his comment is meant as no disrespect to any runner or arrogance but “certain people have that special mindset Success for Addy isn’t her winning but setting records She is extremely laid back and the nicest person But when she’s about to step on the track she’s Clark Kent and steps out of the phone booth and becomes a Superhero.” Those running against Bristow will agree 100 percent with Coach Baca Bristow’s running style is to go out fast and quickly build large leads But instead of coming back to the field eventually like a lot of runners do when using this strategy the two-time defending 4A cross country state champion buries the competition leaving everyone else racing for second place And it doesn’t matter if it’s a regular ol’ March meet in Canyon on a windy day or against the best the state of Texas offers like on Thursday Bristow started her day off running the 800-meters in a state-record time of 2:07.19 eclipsing the mark of 2:09.81 set in 2009 by Simone Brinkley of Dallas Madison her next closest competitor four seconds behind and she won by just under seven seconds Next up was the 1600 meter race where Bristow ran a state-record 4:48.64 signing her name to the state record previously held by Kelsey Johnon of Iowa Park at 4:54.73 set back in 2008 This time Bristow led by 18 seconds midway through the race and won by just under 20 seconds over Randall’s Brooke French a quick turnaround after the 1600-meter race many runners refuse to try and pull off because of fatigue Bristow and Canyon teammates Brooklyn Kinsey Reese Wilson and Sydnee Winfrey won in a 3:48.89 setting the state record previously held by Waco La Vega in 2013 at 3:49.75 Bristow ran the anchor leg taking the baton in a close second and moving into first by the end of the first curve “Just motivation that this was my last race with my team and I was really excited to celebrate after,” Bristow of her motivation to run the 1600 Relay I know it all came from the love of my teammates and I really just wanted to do it for them and score as many points as I possibly could and leave knowing I couldn’t have pushed any harder.” Bristow’s state medal haul is becoming insane as she now owns two individual gold medals for cross country and then at the state meet two individual silver medals two gold medals for and three individual gold medals for her running Bristow’s teammates where strong in the 1600 Relay as well with leadoff senior Kinsey freshman Wilson and senior Winfrey each ran their fastest legs of the year “You have to go out with a bang on your last one That’s what we have been talking about all our hard work and putting it out there We did our job and came in every practice and got better That was our goal at the end of the year and we did it.” Said Kinsey: “The leadership as a senior is a lot different than when you are a freshman So this year has felt heavier of a weight on how we take care of our teammates and how we lead by example So in the end to know we did the best that we possibly could we have worked so hard not only this year but every single year to get the confidence we have and now we get to be excited and hopefully pass down the legacy We like to set high standards for our team and individually it wasn’t just win but let’s set these records Baca said placing second behind Brownwood in the team race was not a disappointment “We set a personal record in the 3200 (Avery Brown) our pole vaulter was hurt (Hadley Johnson) so she did her best (finishing 8th) we had a PR in the 300 hurdles (with Kinsey) and all four in our mile relay set personal records,” Baca said Press Pass Sports will provide fans a passionate and informed look at high school college and

Bristow was named the Western Athletic Conference Freshman of the Year after averaging 11.3 points and 4.4 rebounds in 26.3 minutes per game He ranked among the top 40 in the nation among freshmen in points per game The Crimson Tide have emerged as one of the top programs in the country under head coach Nate Oats advancing to at least the Elite Eight in the past two seasons It’s the most sustained success in program history Bristow was a three-time Red River 22 honoree during his high school career earning Most Valuable Player as a senior at Holliday after leading the Eagles to the Class 3A

blood societal progress had ended in Egypt.” — The Conscience of a Right-Winger “[One character’s ancestors] for 40,000 years were all white and he hated who he was so very much that he put an end to that tradition by becoming romantically involved with a nonwhite individual — as many white liberals are predisposed to doing these days.” — White Apocalypse  “Homosexuality kills people almost to a degree worse than cigarettes … These [pro-gay rights] groups are complicit with murder.” — Quoted in the Spartan Edge an alternative newspaper at Michigan State University He was president of the Young Republicans Club at Chippewa Valley High School and has voiced anger about a perceived leftist bias in the local schools he read the 2003 book, Treason: Liberal Treachery from the Cold War to the War on Terrorism by far-right attack dog Ann Coulter which he says inspired a turning point in his political views During his freshman year at Michigan State University (MSU) Bristow was elected president of the campus conservative group Young Americans for Freedom (YAF). He also won an unopposed seat on the student government council He quickly posted his 13-point agenda as a student representative a sophomoric document saturated in hate that included capturing undocumented immigrants in the area cutting school funding for non-heterosexual groups and giving more representation to men and whites on the student council than others The council recalled Bristow in a landslide vote after he refused to recant his agenda or resign But the young firebrand succeeded in sparking plenty of national publicity during his two years as president of YAF He planned a “Catch an Illegal Immigrant Day,” which drew national attention but was later canceled He led a “straight power” rally in front of the Lansing City Hall to protest a proposed 2006 law to protect gays lesbians and bisexuals against bias based on sexual orientation “End Faggotry” and “Go Back in the Closet.” In a news release to publicize the event Bristow wrote: “YAF members find homosexuality and other forms of sexual deviancy to be disgusting and the American public need to be protected from these degenerates.” Under Bristow’s leadership the campus YAF group also held a “Koran desecration contest.” Based on these and other bigoted acts and statements the SPLC began listing Michigan State’s YAF club as a hate group in 2007 a journal that publishes racist articles and hosts periodic national conferences attended by a variety of hardline nationalists that has included neo-Nazis former Klan leaders and other open white supremacists. Inviting Taylor was a step too far for the national YAF group In a February 2008 post on the website of American Renaissance Bristow disclosed that national YAF had threatened to revoke the campus’ charter if the local group hosted Taylor he complained that “YAF does not officially recognize multi-culturalism as a threat to the United States” and railed against “cowards at the university and in ‘conservative’ organizations.” Nevertheless Bristow resigned from the MSU chapter and Taylor’s lecture was cancelled making them the true “Native Americans.” In Bristow’s version these whites were massacred by darker-skinned late arrivals He dedicates the book to “the real Native Americans.” Its publication was hailed by the white power movement as a bracing inspiration for future recruits to their cause The hero/narrator of the book wants the Solutrean theory to come to public light But first he must squash the evil “Center for Diversity and Multiculturalism,” based in Atlanta which maintains an active legal staff and “hate group list,” just like the SPLC But Bristow gets even more personal than that Two of the fictional group’s staff members are clearly modeled on former SPLC Intelligence Report editor Mark Potok and Heidi Beirich (Beirich’s name is rendered as “Beirman” in the book curly haired troll.” The Potok character is assassinated in a grisly and meticulously described scene.) When asked about the apparent targeting of Potok and Beirich saying in an email to the SPLC beginning “Dear Guttersnipe” that he meant nothing of the kind A new edition on Amazon combines this nonfiction work with the earlier novel Bristow appeared to be dropping under the radar as he took up work at a regular day job with the France Law Group in Toledo He began to actively seek female clients whose nude photos were posted on online “revenge porn sites” by vindictive ex-partners He got two of the sites shut down on behalf of clients and then was interviewed about his efforts by the Wall Street Journal and television’s Katie Couric Although many observers were surprised by Bristow’s activity helping people he may have shown his real interest when he characterized revenge porn as a manifestation of liberalism and claimed that the majority of its victims are white Bristow left to open his own law practice in the Detroit suburb of Clarkston where he billed himself online as an expert in internet law and “able to assist law school graduates who are going through the character and fitness” test required before sitting for the Michigan and Ohio bar exams (Bristow is still licensed to practice law in both states.) In Dec. 2013, Bristow publicly teamed with Dan Poole, a recent college graduate and activist with the white supremacist American Freedom Party to create the Center for the Advancement of Occidental Culture The new group’s mission was “to advance and defend Western civilization” and oppose alleged discrimination and harassment of European-Americans asked for original articles for its website and financial contributions the two founders dissolved the new group as a limited liability corporation (Bristow was its chief legal officer according to a blog post by the Anti-Defamation League) and its website went dead Bristow described FMI as an American Civil Liberties Union for the right wing Bristow stated the FMI was established “to promote the United States Constitution and to oppose people who and organizations which strive to usurp the freedoms it guarantees.” Bristow also said he intended to target so-called “social justice warriors.” Over the course of the next two years Bristow became one of the most prominent lawyers for the alt-right One of Bristow’s most important clients was Spencer the University of Cincinnati and other universities to force them to allow Spencer to speak at their schools Heimbach hired Bristow to represent him, whom he had known for several years. In a 2016 SPLC interview with Bristow’s ex-wife she notes Heimbach and Bristow developed a close friendship beginning in 2013 The Aug. 12, 2017, “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia (which Bristow did not attend) drew increased public scrutiny of the burgeoning alt-right movement And one of the key alt-right figures that journalists extensively covered during the next six months was Bristow the movement’s charismatic legal consigliere that “journalists have published horrifically disparaging articles about me which contain acerbic and regrettable statements I mostly made over a decade ago while I was in college.” He also wrote “In light of the recent relentless and unjustifiable vilification of me as well as the mischaracterizations of who I am as a person I have unilaterally made the decision to provide this clarification and to withdraw from politics.” both the website and Facebook pages for Bristow’s cherished FMI were offline In over six months since his resignation from FMI and his involvement with the alt-right appears to have come to an end tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization (EIN: 63-0598743) The Southern Poverty Law Center400 Washington AvenueMontgomery AUSTIN — Canyon's Addyson Bristow came into the UIL state track meet as one of the more accomplished runners in the nation and she left little doubt she was the best on the track Thursday when she blew away the Class 4A field to win the 800 Despite having to circle back later in the night to compete in the 1,600 built a four-second lead in the first lap and almost doubled that in the second lap almost seven seconds ahead of Salado's Annalee Bryant (2:14.11) and two seconds ahead of the 15-year-old state record of 2:09.99 Bret Bloomquist can be reached at bbloomquist@elpasotimes.com; @Bretbloomquist on X The 2025 UIL 4A Girls 1600-Meter Run was more than a race-it was a showcase of dominance from Addyson Bristow (Canyon) the undisputed top distance runner in Texas 4A Just two hours after setting the 4A state record in the 800 meters Bristow returned to the track for the second leg of her ambitious double and she didn't just win-she rewrote history once again With a season-best of 4:44.43 and a seed time nearly ten seconds faster than the next competitor Bristow took command of the race immediately She stormed through the first 400 meters in 1:08.32 separating herself from the field before the race had even settled her 3:36.66 split made it clear: this wasn't just a victory lap-it was a record chase With over 100 meters on the field heading into the bell lap the only question left was whether Bristow would take down the longstanding 4A meet record of 4:53.75 closing hard over the final 200 meters to stop the clock at 4:48.64 shattering the record and completing her 800m/1600m double in unforgettable fashion Behind her, Brooke French, a promising sophomore from Canyon Randall leading the chase pack and securing silver in 5:08.01 the 3200m champion and a freshman from Dumas capped off an impressive meet with a third-place finish in 5:09.96 showing the future of 4A distance running is in great hands Celeste Cantu (Huffman Hargrave) and McCall Boyd (Salado) also impressed finishing fourth and sixth respectively in the 5:12 range battling through a tightly packed group over the final two laps this race belonged to Addyson Bristow-two state titles and a performance that will be remembered for years to come a global leader in vertical flight solutions has scheduled its first quarter 2025 earnings release for Tuesday The company will host a conference call on Wednesday Investors can participate through an online registration link The company will also make its investor presentation available on May 7 through the investor section of their website at bristowgroup.com leader globale nelle soluzioni di volo verticale ha programmato la pubblicazione dei risultati del primo trimestre 2025 per martedì 6 maggio 2025 La società terrà una conference call mercoledì 7 maggio 2025 Gli investitori potranno partecipare tramite un link di registrazione online con accesso alla registrazione disponibile fino al 28 maggio 2025 la presentazione per gli investitori sarà resa disponibile il 7 maggio 2025 nella sezione investor del sito bristowgroup.com líder mundial en soluciones de vuelo vertical ha programado su publicación de resultados del primer trimestre de 2025 para el martes 6 de mayo de 2025 La compañía realizará una llamada conferencia el miércoles 7 de mayo de 2025 a las 10:00 a.m Los inversores podrán participar mediante un enlace de registro en línea con acceso a la repetición disponible hasta el 28 de mayo de 2025 La presentación para inversores también estará disponible el 7 de mayo de 2025 en la sección de inversores del sitio web bristowgroup.com 수직 비행 솔루션 분야의 글로벌 선두주자는 2025년 1분기 실적 발표를 2025년 5월 6일 화요일 또한 회사는 2025년 5월 7일에 투자자 발표 자료를 bristowgroup.com 웹사이트의 투자자 섹션에서 제공할 예정입니다 leader mondial des solutions de vol vertical a programmé la publication de ses résultats du premier trimestre 2025 pour le mardi 6 mai 2025 La société tiendra une conférence téléphonique le mercredi 7 mai 2025 à 10h00 ET (9h00 CT) Les investisseurs pourront participer via un lien d'inscription en ligne avec un accès au replay disponible jusqu'au 28 mai 2025 La présentation aux investisseurs sera également mise à disposition le 7 mai 2025 dans la section investisseurs du site bristowgroup.com ein weltweit führendes Unternehmen für vertikale Fluglösungen hat die Veröffentlichung der Ergebnisse für das erste Quartal 2025 für Dienstag um 10:00 Uhr ET (9:00 Uhr CT) eine Telefonkonferenz abhalten Investoren können über einen Online-Registrierungslink teilnehmen Die Investorenpräsentation wird ebenfalls am 7 Mai 2025 im Investor-Bereich der Website bristowgroup.com bereitgestellt the global leader in innovative and sustainable vertical flight solutions today announced it will release its first quarter 2025 financial results after market close on Tuesday Bristow has scheduled a conference call for Wednesday Investors may participate in the call by using the following link, which is now open for early registration: https://www.veracast.com/webcasts/bristow/webcasts/VTOL1Q25.cfm A replay of the call will be available through May 28, 2025 and can be accessed using the same link.

And she did (stay with Winfrey) that was easy.' And then all of a sudden she just started gaining confidence and she got tons better at the end of the track season It's not that she stepped on the track and she was blowing people away because she wasn't always winning in junior high And the first half of (her) freshman track season and she has a lot of trust in what we do." After being able to stay close behind Winfrey the defending state champion in the 800-meter run and 1,600-meter relay Bristow realized that she had the potential to be an accomplished runner as well Winfrey and Bristow had a strong relationship but Bristow said that after realizing she could one day reach the same heights her senior teammate had she began to "study" Winfrey's routine and regimen who signed to run at Kansas and is now at sophomore for the Jayhawks Winfrey earned her second consecutive gold medal in the 800-meter dash Bristow said that she always looked up to Winfrey and is thankful to now be in the same spot as an accomplished veteran leader that her former teammate was just because of the program I was in and how normal that was even for me coming in as a freshman," Winfrey told the Globe-News I had those older girls that I looked up to and kind of latched on to And you find those people that you can look up to and almost You know they're going to lead you in the right direction and help you be the best you can be And then just to be able to get to be in that position and be able to take on those younger girls and have Addy come up and be in a position where she wants to follow me Everything that Winfrey passed on to Bristow has obviously worked as the Lady Eagles' current star has continued to improve winning a state title in the 800-meter run as a sophomore with a time of two minutes Bristow also placed second at the state championships in the 1,600-meter run in 2024 with a time of four minutes being beaten out only by fellow Canyon standout Hannah Stuart who is now running at the University of Missouri Bristow demolished her previous personal-best mile time 44.43 seconds to claim the fastest time in the nation Bristow is set to compete March 26-29 in the 3,200-meter run at the Texas Relays one of the most competitive track meets in the country each season Taking on a new roleBristow has come a long way from the talented up-and-coming freshman that pushed a future Division I athlete in the state championship In addition to being one of the fastest track athletes in America Bristow has also developed into a leader for the Lady Eagles — giving back to the younger runners on Canyon's team "It's not something I take lightly," Bristow said "It's a huge part of the dynamic of Canyon you just naturally follow the older girls and do everything they do I just feel like I've learned so much from the older girls and I really hope that the younger girls can look at me and just learn the same things I really want to be a good role model for them and I'm also taking in this last year with the seniors because I want to be just as good of a teammate as they are to me so I can be the same great teammate that they've been." Canyon has developed a number of new up-and-coming stars Lady Eagles' freshman Michaela Sharber placed second in the 3,200-meter run at the Amarillo Relays finishing behind Canyon senior Avery Brown "Addy (Bristow) and Avery Brown are such good leaders on our team," Baca said she's running times that I think she never thought she'd be able to."

afternoon at the UIL Region I-4A track meet at PlainsCapital Park Lowrey Field Bristow not only defended her region titles but continued rewriting the meet record books Bristow ran so far ahead of her competitors that they might as well have been in another county Bristow began her gold rush by winning the 800 by breaking her own meet record set last year with a time of 2:07.60 as she also broke the meet record in the 1600 with a 4:52.96 breaking the previous record set by another former Canyon runner I was,” said Bristow of trying to rewrite the record books “I was just trying to beat myself from last year and that’s what I did The biggest opposition Bristow seems to be facing is herself because she doesn’t seem to be getting much of it from anybody else That dominance overshadowed an equally big day for the Canyon boys team While the girls have won several regional and state titles the Canyon boys brought home their first Saturday afternoon scoring 91 points to finish 15 ahead of second-place Stephenville “It’s definitely something we’ve been talking about,” Canyon boys coach Wes Kirton said “We made sure we had a bigger goal than what we’ve been doing I’ve been talking to our (mile relay) guys a lot and I said let’s dream big All the Canyon boys needed to do going into the day’s finale they finished less than a second behind gold medalists Dumas who fell just short of a region record with a time of 3:17.95 and Bristow was part of another region record to end the day as she anchored the 1600 relay to a 3:50.78 beating the previous record set by Canyon in 2014 by over a second No one would blame Bristow if she’d chosen to spend that event under Canyon’s team shade tent approximately 20 minutes after she won the 1600 But did anybody think she’d sit out the finish “I was a little tired but not worried,” Bristow said “I knew when it comes down to my team winning or losing I’m going to give it everything I got I wanted to bring us to a victory and I’m happy that I did.” Canyon had little trouble ending the day with another win Brooklyn Kinsey got Canyon off to a strong start on the leadoff leg and after falling behind on the backstretch Reese Wilson rallied in the second leg before handing off to Sydney Winfrey When Winfrey opened up a big lead in the third leg victory seemed like a mere formality when she passed the baton to Bristow The only question was if Canyon would set a region record and by how much as the Lady Eagles finished almost six seconds ahead of second place Brownwood Canyon girls winning the mile relay to close the region meet sounds like a broken record at this point It’s no surprise that there were three more of them at the end of the day “I think at times there’s not so much competition so it’s definitely me versus myself at the end of the day,” Bristow said Not when you consider that Bristow will enter the state meet in Austin as the defending 800 champion and likely prohibitive favorite and that she will compete in the 1600 after finishing second there last year Canyon had a typically strong meet with 75 points The Canyon boys weren’t about to finish behind anyone the boys were dominant in the distance events Senior Ryan Fernandez almost joined Bristow in the record books Fernandez needed to run that fast since he beat teammate Lathan Lewter by .27 seconds with Aaryan Katwal-Shaver joining the Canyon teammates on the medal stand with a bronze medal to complete the sweep “I know I have more for state which is the end goal but I’m pretty happy with it,” Fernandez said “I’ve been dealing with some stuff with my leg a little bit but I’m happy I was able to come out here and perform (Lewter) took the first two laps and I took the second two.” Lewter already was guaranteed a trip to state after winning the 3200 on Friday in 9:26.41 Canyon’s other win Saturday came in the 400 Baylor West ran a 50.02 to edge fellow junior Emmitt Stewart for the gold It was no surprise that West ended the day running the leadoff leg of the mile relay to clinch the team title with Stewart running the anchor and Jacob Asbill and Adrian Ramos filling the middle two legs “It wasn’t my best race but it still felt pretty good,” said West of the 400 “I had to pace myself along with (Stewart) and I knew exactly when to push A tradition continued for the Canyon girls when they won their first medal of the day thanks to junior Hadley Johnson in the pole vault Following in the footsteps of three-time state qualifier Kashle Dickinson who graduated two years ago She reached a personal best vault of 11 feet What particularly stood out about that number was that the cold conditions weren’t conducive to personal best vaults “The weather was definitely a factor,” Johnson said “I was going for an 11-6 just to make it The 11-6 was the PR Johnson had entering the event which was tied for second best qualifying vault Bush and Brownwood’s Grace Sparks were the final three left standing when the bard was raised to 11-6 Johnson was the only one to clear the height earning the gold before she aimed for 11-9 a senior who was a state qualifier last year got silver and the region’s second state berth by virtue of having fewer misses than Sparks “I was just trying to stay with (Bush),” Johnson said “We’ve been vaulting against each other since my freshman year Randall swept the boys and girls long jump events but those wins were just the beginning for the gold haul for Collin Miller and Tenera Gray Miller won the boys long jump with a leap of 23-3 1/2 and Gray took gold for girls with an 18-8 3/4 Later in the day after running events started Two days after helping Randall’s baseball team win a 16-13 slugfest at Hereford by driving in four runs Miller was in the leadoff spot for the track team Miller ran the leadoff leg for the 400-meter relay team sparking Randall to a win in a time of 41.65 “It’s perfect in my book,” said Miller of his day “I’m only here for two events and got first in both of them Miller took a calculated risk in the long jump as he made what proved to be the winning leap on his first attempt Stephenville’s Tristian Gentry had a jump of 23-2 3/4 in his first attempt and Miller was confident that no other jumper would surpass that “I was just waiting for someone to outjump me before I took another attempt,” Miller said “I kind of tightened up a little bit (running the leadoff leg).” Breckan Gilbert and Kaiden Miller to win the 400 relay with Kaiden Miller’s strong anchor leg bringing it home Gray’s experience in the long jump was the polar opposite of Gilbert’s She didn’t know she’d won until taking her final jump where her leap surpassed the 18-6 1/2 by Brownwood’s Kaya Phillips to win gold That was a mere prelude to the 300 hurdles in which she was favored and won in a region record time of 43.45 The 300 hurdles turned out to be one of the most eventful races of the day but she wasn’t the only one who dramatically improved her time Kinsey and Brownwood’s Kate Tindol chased down Gray and couldn’t catch her as they finished in identical times of 44.02 A photo finish indicated that Tindol had the edge for second place and the automatic berth to state “I was in the blocks when I was thinking about it and in that last 100 I heard footsteps and I knew I had to push it,” Gray said “I think it motivates me to do better.”  Colton Mills and Imanol Marquez won the 800 in 1:28.15 and Nava Marquez and Reese Waddell combined to win the 1600 to end the day Marquez was the biggest factor in finishing both running superb anchor legs to bring home the golds “I’ve been doing it for two years now and honestly I love the pressure,” Marquez said “It pushes me to move as fast as I can I knew in the 4 by 400 we had a better chance and in the 4 by 200 it was going to be tight I told them to trust me to get that gold medal and they set me up for that.” Dumas freshman Emily Gross didn’t bring home gold but had two school records with bronze medal performances in the 3200 (11:16.25) and 1600 (5:09.88) The other gold medal won by an area athlete came in the boys 110 hurdles Junior Izak Dominguez ran a 14.61 for the win after suffering a broken collarbone just two weeks ago The top two competitors from each event qualified for the UIL Class 4A state track and field meet set for May 1-3 at Mike A For a look at the full results from the Region

would take between four to six months with the sign expected to be lit up just in time for Route 66’s centennial next year The RAeS’ 2025 Alan Bristow Memorial Lecture shed light on how the namesake company aims to deliver Advanced Air Mobility solutions in an evolutionary way the Royal Aeronautical Society hosted the annual Alan Bristow Memorial Lecture at No.4 Hamilton Place honouring the helicopter pioneer whose company is now one of the largest providers of rotary-wing services worldwide Delivering the lecture this year was David F Stepanek FRAeS Bristow Group’s Executive Vice President and Chief Transformation Officer including involvement in the certification of the S-92 helicopter the subject of Stepanek’s talk was ‘Advanced Air Mobility: A Philosophical Guide to Early Operations.’ Bristow operates a worldwide fleet of over 200 aircraft the company has grown to become a global player in rotary wing operations with a large and diverse fleet of 210 helicopters that range from heavy Sikorsky S-92 to single-engine light AW119s Although its main markets are sectors such as supporting offshore oil rigs providing search and rescue as well as maintenance and training Bristow is now pioneering Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) with drones eCTOLs and eVTOLs helping develop concepts of operations for this new class of air vehicles Bristow will trial a piloted Beta Technologies Alia CX300 electric aircraft in Norway The electric-powered conventional take-off and landing (eCTOL) aircraft will operate between Stavanger and Bergen Airports This demonstration comes at a time when large numbers of AAM companies are developing aircraft that will use more sustainable energy sources such as electricity and hydrogen in vertical and conventional landing vehicles (the CX300 is available in either) Stepanek sounded caution on the speed of this progress The Beta Technologies Alia will be trialled in Norway Stepanek talked about Igor Sikorsky’s vision where a helicopter would not only carry out missions such as search and rescue but would be deployed as a mass transport system for everyone this vision has remained grounded due to the expense the advent of eVTOL aircraft has led to suggestions that this situation could change – because they lack gearboxes and turbines which generate much of the noise and expense from helicopters - particularly around maintenance Stepanek was cautious about on the likely timeframes for this arguing that by the time the necessary technological advances and the certification process are taken into account so-called ‘flying taxis’ may not be available until the late 2030s or early 2040s rather than the often promised ‘end of this decade’ he made the point that while “any dummy can buy an aeroplane” successful introduction of AAM will require a holistic approach and operators with deep knowledge and experience in safe flight operations Talking of Bristow specifically: “we are effectively a software company,” which allows the firm to apply its technical skills and culture to develop solutions uses stages of establishing and continuously upgrading technology and its standards before developing safety management systems then finally moving into a culture of regular improvement Bristow will pursue what Stepanek called a pragmatic "crawl walk and run” approach to rolling out AAM aircraft and operations the company will examine issues such as how aircraft landing gear and batteries will cope with the regular use cycles that are needed in a commercial context instead of a testing environment he made the point that one of the major obstacles yet to be overcome is the public perception that a revolution in transportation is imminent when eVTOLs are often depicted as ‘flying taxis’ and people are unaware that operators will in fact be classed as airlines with the ensuing regulations Stepanek also observed that there is a perception that eVTOLs are safer due to their multiple rotors and redundancy and will immediately there will be viable business model upon certification “We’ve got to take the revolution and evolve it to get it there safely and efficiently,” explained Stepanek he argued that companies should commence their journey into AAM operations by using existing infrastructure such as underutilised airfields before investing in expensive new vertiports Bristow is also set to introduce cargo drones - such as the Elroy Chaparral such as how AAM can offer affordable flying while still turning a profit for their operators who have had to invest in both  the infrastructure and the aircraft - require answers Stepanek discussed the evolution of aviation in the 20th century explaining how during the inter-war period most aviation businesses in the US focused on freight transport Cargo is therefore likely to become an ideal next step for AAM operations too operations in Norway with the Beta CX300 will start from August this year with it being a production airframe rather a prototype Stepanek said it will transit via Ireland and the UK Responding to an audience member regarding why Norway was chosen Stepanek explained that this was due to the country’s regulator being open to sustainable innovation the ability to fund new infrastructure as well as its plentiful charging capacity due to country’s significant hydropower capacity Stepanek presented a potential roadmap where these types of cargo operations would followed by limited eVTOL passenger flights utilising existing infrastructure over short distances Operations would then grow towards Regional Air Mobility over longer distances with new infrastructure in hard-to-reach areas such as Norway’s fjords and parts of Australia He also discussed how RAM aircraft would deploy alternative power plants such as the hydrogen-electric engines being developed by the UK’s ZeroAvia would be Urban Air Mobility (UAM) operations in dense city environments operating around vertical infrastructure and offering a vision of the future that would finally realise Igor Sikorsky's dream for vertical flight for all Bristow is investing in new AAM technologies including the Vertical Aerospace VX-4 eVTOL The pace of innovation in AAM in recent years has been striking with startups presenting an idea potentially more revolutionary than the last Although the possibility of rapid progress cannot be discounted this presentation from a well-established industry player left no illusions of the challenges that still have to be overcome operators and wider society could be significant The use of advanced computer modelling has enabled the accurate prediction of rotor downwash and outwash for the first time as the UK CAA’s MIKE PRYCE and
