The Berlin Airlift of 1949 was an instrumental mission for the USAF. In 24 hours, the USAF was able to drop 12,940 tons of cargo into Berlin to help feed countless people. Recently the 89th Airlift Wing gained a new asset, a C-37B which they have dedicated to the Berlin Airlift. The Spark X team was given the task of designing a key to mark this special occasion to be given to the new commander of the plane called "Candy Bomber." Spark X was happy to assist in this little slice of history. The key took 17 hours to design and 12 hours to print.

Major Richard Hall of the 99th Airlift Squadron stopped by Spark X with an idea: he wanted to print a custom holder for the hand controllers on Bose A20 headsets. Aircrew use these headsets while flying their C-37's and Gulfstream 550's. Currently, the hand control dangles on the communication cord, often out of quick reach. With our prototyping help, Maj Hall left with some new mounts to test in their aircraft. The mounts are designed to keep headset controls within quick reach at all times.

U.S. Navy Petty Officer Third Class Hogan, from the Dorm Management Office, created a 3D scan of the dorms here at JBA! The models will be featured on their upcoming digital orientation website.

The end product will allow incoming military members to see the dorms before they arrive to Joint-Base Andrews and choose the style of room they'd like to have prior to ever stepping foot on base. PO3 Hogan was taught how to use our Matterport system, and like all customers, is now able to check it out for future use!
