The ICAO (/ˌaɪˌkeɪˈoʊ/, "IK-KAY-OH") airport code or location indicator is a four-character alphanumeric code designating aerodromes around the world. These codes are defined by the International Civil Aviation Organization, and published in ICAO Document 7910: Location Indicators are used by air traffic control and airline operations such as flight planning. They differ from IATA codes, which are generally used for airline timetables, reservations, and baggage tags. For example, the IATA code for London's Heathrow Airport is LHR and its ICAO code is EGLL. ICAO codes are commonly seen by passengers and the general public on flight-tracking services such as FlightAware. In general IATA codes are usually derived from the name of the airport or the city it serves, while ICAO codes are distributed by region and country.
ICAO codes are also used to identify other aviation facilities such as weather stations, International Flight Service Stations or Area Control Centers, whether or not they are located at airports.
FIRST Championship is a four-day robotics championship held annually in April. For several years, the event was held at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Georgia, but moved to the Edward Jones Dome, in St Louis, Missouri in 2011, where it will stay through 2017. The event comprises three competitions, FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Championship, FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) World Championship, and FIRST LEGO League (FLL) World Festival. FIRST Championship is normally held in conjunction with FIRST Robotics Conference which covers a wide variety of topics in science, technology, engineering, and robotics fields.
FRC is a six-week competition program for high-school students to build 120 pound (54 kg) robots that can complete a task that changes every year using standard set of parts, plus any additional off-the-shelf or custom parts. FTC is a mid-level competition program for high-school aged students with a more accessible and affordable robotics kit. FLL is a competition program for elementary and middle school students. Teams for each program compete in tournaments at state and regional level. The winning teams from those tournaments join the global competition at FIRST Championship.
Squirt The Turtle from NH won the performance award for the FLL World Festival 2016 - Trash Trek year. Here is their world-breaking score (for a scored match) of 1081 achieved during the practice rounds. This was with the help of the co-operative task thanks to the amazing Japanese team Universal Serial Bus.
This EV3 robot design tutorial is going to give you eight very important tips on how to build an FLL robot. This is going to be extremely useful for any FLL teams, rookie or expert. Please note that these tips are based on my FLL experience. I am not trying to force anything onto you, I only want to give you suggestions; If you know a better method, by all means try that instead!

Watch our robot "The Beast" in closeup completing the First Lego League Senior Solutions mat!
We hope this video is helpful! This is one of our missions we will be using in the FLL Regional Tournament.
This video was made by The Electric LEGOS for a "Guess the Missions" contest run by LEGO Education. It was made before the FLL Animal Allies challenge was released. These are NOT the real missions, but we had fun trying to guess what the missions would be. For the REAL missions, please check out the FIRST LEGO League channel. #FirstLegoLeague #AnimalAllies
Hi all, This is one of our many test runs. The team has worked very hard for two months to get this far. Considering this is the team first time doing Lego robotic. The team only purchased one Lego robot two months ago. Our team is aiming to get 100+ points out of a possible 300+ points. This is encouraging despite on this test run we ran over the required 2 minutes 30 seconds. We have three more weeks before the FLL tournament to improve. Go Milton Droids.

Love you then they hate you
Then they love you again
Hate you then they love you
Then they hate you again
Hold me tight, let me go
Heal my heart, hurt my soul
Build me up, break me down
Make me smile, make me frown
Give me love, take it all away again
Give me love, take it all away again
Yeah, ain't no love in the heart of city, that's what they told me
Beef with over 100 niggas, don't none of 'em know me
Son of a mother studying at UDC
Sitting in taxi cabs, where daddy roaming the streets
Seven hallelujahs, my sutana was clean
On everything I wear it, all the America's tees
This whole system most prolific in the DMV
Listen when you get the keys it's seldom, you don't get the beef
Make a nigga wanna get the piece to get to peace
You gon' need more than Wikipedia to get to me
PG to Mo County bet they all know about me
Every hood, every 'burb, I got superb balance
From the city that made me love you forever for it
Hope you celebrate every moment forever ignore it
You made me what I am, you made me what I'm not
They gon' love you a little different when you at the top
Give me love, baby
Not enough, not enough, just a touch, baby
What the fuck, baby? It's just us, baby
This ain't right, this is life
This a love hate thing
Yeah, my affinty grows as the city gets cold
As you reaching your goals, you gon' meet you some foes
Having dinner with Leonsis I'm dreaming to own
But for now me and my homies see the bottom floor
I'm trying to redefine the culture, and renovate the soul
Women in town, but I'm manifestating every goal
I see potential in John, talk to him once a week
Media targets in our city it ain't ever sweet
I lost a lot of friends and they ain't even dead
When I was on my way up, why you ain't see the stairs?
Lord father if I opted to follow them
My heart would tear from my dreams let me know that you here
And it's rare when I'm anywhere with too many heads
Niggas jealous and never tell it until they stare
How could you blame us envy?
We do the same thing for a living
Know the same niggas, but they all commend me
Champagne I'mma spill it until we all fill up
Maybe it stopped me from giving a fuck about opinions
And probably not, but I'm temporarily out of fizzucks
