...or not. Funk, C. S. (1995). Human factors in flight instructor's guide. Brookfield, VT: Avebury Aviation. The books main purpose and goal is to provide accurate definitions of and ways to avoid human flight errors. Many of the errors described are common occurrences that if eliminated reduce the chance of airplane accidents and hopefully help to eliminate any human errors. The book consists of error classifications, human or machinery errors and human factors in aviation. The main undeniable point is that the underlying cause of machinery and human error is caused by either how well it can be built or the amount of trading that a pilot can go through. In an event of an accident, a whole list of certain checkpoints are reviewed and looked over. The foremost system reviewed is the human inputs, these are the most important yet uncontrollable parts of any incident. The source describes that only from a machine or the outside factors surrounding a pilot, can the pilot form a complete series of inductive reasoning solutions. The machine error only plays part if it is part of this reasoning process by contributing false inputs or information. Flight Instructor Notebook. (n.d.).

...Air Transpor 1069917 5 May 2011 SFT 1007-1011 Introduction to air transport The impact of recession in air transport(passengers demand, economic cycles, current developments) The reports covers the entire aviation industry and will include the recession aspect and its consequences on the passengers demand, the economic cycle and also on the current developments. 1.0 Introduction One of the biggest international industries, the air transport, has the largest sensitivity on the economic crisis. That crisis hit and still continues to effect the populations, industries and economic growth in developed and developing countries. Every sector has been effected by the crisis, every industry has had a reaction and an immediate research for solutions. Instability of revenue and expenditure in the airline industry was effected from the global change. That for is easy to deduce that these reactions are different from each other. This in according to available founds, resources and differences in management. 2.0 Impacts on demand The demand aspect, is a factor that shows us the relationship between population and economic crisis. In fact, the perception of crisis brings different fears and uncertainty in people. Thus leading to an increase of the overall savings, with consequences under the economic factor, with less expenditure incurred by each person. This is one of the things that influenced more directly the airline industry, with a sharp drop in demand. Taking...

The aviation community has led the way in promoting advances aimed at reducing its environmental footprint for many years. Aviation emissions only make up a fraction of all of the transportation emissions, while business aviation makes up an even smaller fraction of that. As an example of something to reduce emissions and optimize aircraft performance and flight range over a decade ago winglets were introduced into general aviation. This equipment also contributed to more efficient fuel burn and is now in place on a large number of general aviation aircraft. In addition, the industry continues to reduce engine emissions by applying new technologies, which means that today’s aircraft engines are cleaner, quieter, and more fuel-efficient than ever. Operational improvements advanced by business aviation also have resulted in national airspace system efficiencies that help the environment. Over two years ago, NBAA members began equipping aircraft, at their own cost, with cockpit technology allowing for reduced vertical separation minimums (RVSM), effectively doubling the system’s airspace capacity. In spite...

...Aviation Maintenance from A Manger’s Perspective Lisa A. Williams Embry Riddle Aeronautical University Management 203 Christopher Urdzik April 26, 2015 Abstract This paper explores aviation maintenance from a Manager’s perspective. There are various governing bodies that control or oversee how maintenance is performed on a routine basis for commercial aircraft. The main governing body that is discussed here is the FAA. Also discussed is the required training of the Airframe and Powerplant mechanic and how management can be assured that mechanics are qualified to release aircraft after performing maintenance certifying these aircraft are safe to fly. Also, in this paper, the attempt is made to show where mechanics need ongoing training to assure management that the mechanic is trained on new technologies that are developed and used in commercial and corporate aviation. The answers are not mapped out by the FAA or training programs so it is up to the company to be sure that the mechanic is made aware of these new technologies through FAA study groups that managers can attend and brief technicians on new developments. Human error cannot be eradicated it is indispensable fact of the human behavior (Maddox, 1998). Although, aviation maintenance managers have acquired high levels of technological skills training related to their profession, the above statement from Dr. Michael Maddox is true in regards to human error. Research in the industrial...

...Air Transportation Management The Impact of General Aviation General aviation is considered one of the three main segments of the aviation market. The other two being commercial aviation and military aviation. General aviation operations are anything other than military and common carriage. Without general aviation, the industry would suffer in countless ways, possibly even collapse. General aviation includes, literally, every other civilian job except for the few related to the airline sector. What I consider the most important ones are aerial firefighting, flight instructing, pipeline patrol, corporate, bush piloting, agricultural, and test piloting. Flight instructing is one of the most important jobs that there is in the aviation industry. It is where pilots obtain the proper training and skills necessary to be safe and adequate. I believe flight instructing is most likely the most underrated and underpaid job in the aviation industry. Without this job, all pilots would have to come from the military, which would cause a severe shortage of pilots. Pipeline patrol requires pilots to fly aircraft at very low altitudes over varying terrain to observe pipelines and check for any problems or vandalism within the lines. Another type of this job is for pilots to patrol the U.S. borders in search for illegal activities. Without either of these general aviation jobs, more resources and man hours would be required to check oil pipelines and secure our borders. Corporate flying...

...Have you ever wanted to build something as a kid? Has a kite ever flew by your mind? Building a kite from scratch is not only easy but awesome to learn! Although, building a kite isn't always easy you can always learn from building from scratch. Kites are easy to learn how to build and also easy to learn how to fly as well. It’s good to know how to build a kite because it’s easy to experiment with. You can build kites many different ways, many different ways can be how you want to build it and how you want them to look like. Second, kite building is not only for kids, it’s for everyone. Kites are meant for stunting, flying, fighting, and used for other activities. You can build a kite however you want. If you want your kite for regular flying you can build it for that specific activity. If you want your kite for stunting you can build it for that too. You can build a kite for anything you need it for. Kite history, in the history of flight, the first lighter-than-air balloon and the first powered aircraft are very recent when compared with the age of kites. The exact date and origin of the kite is not known but it is believed that they were flown in China more than two thousand years ago. One legend suggests that when a Chinese farmer tied a string to his hat to keep it from blowing away in a strong wind, the first kite was born. The earliest written account of kite flying was about 200 B.C. when the Chinese General Han Hsin of the Han Dynasty flew a kite over the...

It is important to prevent FOD as it can affect the economic cost for airlines (McCreary, 2008), severe damages on turbine blades (Mehdi 2014) and shallow indentions can developed to a fatigue crack (Chen, 2001). The focus will be on preventing FOD on runway as it is the most important area to monitor in terms of safety aspects (McCreary, 2008). It is also important to examine the preventions in placed and its effectiveness within the organization. A Brief Literature Review Previous research done to prevent FOD has shown that there are several preventions lay out in the aviation industry. Some of them would be by training, inspection as well as maintenance (Bachtel 2008). For training, workers in the airport should receive training in identification as well as removal of FOD. This includes the potential consequences of overlooking it. Training is effective when the importance of safety is emphasis to personnel and passengers, direct and indirect cost of FOD. Procedures should be present in order to remove or eliminate...

The aircraft was supposed to fly within 20 miles of the airport with a return to the same airport, or with the option to continue to Burbank California. At dusk, the pilot and passengers load the aircraft and departed the airport. The flight departed under visual flight rules and visual meteorological conditions. The weather was reported at 2 miles in lowering clouds and 900 feet overcast and deteriorating. After takeoff, the aircraft rotated and entered the lowering mist. Approximately 5 miles past the end of the runway, the aircraft was seen exiting the clouds in a steep left rolling bank, trailing smoke. On scene actions Upon arrival at the accident scene, a preliminary visual inspection was done. Following the preliminary inspection, specific areas of responsibility were delegated to the rest of the investigating party. On Scene Observations The aircraft first struck the top of a 100 foot communication tower.

...Hendrick Motorsports Aircraft Accident The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) report examined the events of flight N501RH, operated by Hendrick Motorsports Incorporated on October 24, 2004 from Concorde, NC to Martinsville, VA, and its unsuccessful approach to Martinsville Ridge Airport. Several factors were determined to be as expected for a normal flight path while others were askew. The resulting deaths of the passengers onboard can be attributed to human errors and management shortfalls as there were no mechanical anomalies. Background Flight N501RH was a Beech King Air 200 manufactured in 1981 and had a total time on plane of 8,140 hours. All maintenance inspections were up to date. The aircraft left Concorde, NC on October 24, 2004 and had a flight plan to head to Martinsville Airport in Virginia. The aircraft was equipped with a global positioning system (GPS) though the database was not current making it uncertified in instrument flight rules (IFR) flight plans. Owned and operated by Hendrick Motorsports, the passenger list consisted of two crew members, six members belonging to Hendrick Motorsports and two additional passengers. Sequence of Events The aircraft departed from Concorde at 1156 en route to Martinsville. The flight was routine and all data and communications during the flight were normal. The pilot maintained all assigned heading and altitudes. No warning signs were identified until the aircraft approached the localizer...
