Download or read book Airliners Worldwide written by Tom Singfield and published by Midland Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the publication of the very popular first edition of Airliners Worldwide in 1997, there have been many changes to the fleets employed by the operators, and, of course, many of the illustrations (even two out of three on the front cover) are now history. In addition, some aircraft types have been withdrawn or not developed, including Concorde, the Handley Page Herald, IAI Arava, IPTN N250, Let L610 and SE210 Caravelle. New types which have appeared or are under development include the Embraer 195 and 170, the Antonov An-140, Airbus A318, and Airbus A380. Thus the coverage in this new edition of this valuable guidebook will be markedly different, up to the minute and indispensable. The text for each type has been revised and updated where necessary. Each type has a historical narrative and description of model variants and type of operations, and has the principal technical details such as dimensions, capacity, powerplants, and performance - and a listing of all current operators. The photographic selection is all new and has been updated with the latest eye-catching and interesting color schemes where possible.

Download or read book Global Airlines written by Pat Hanlon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-12-14 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global Airlines: Competition in a Transnational Industry presents an overview of the changing scene in air transport covering current issues such as security, no frills airlines, ‘open skies’ agreements, the outcome of the recent downturn in economic activity and the emergence of transnational airlines, and takes a forward looking view of these challenges for the industry. Since the publication of the second edition in 1999 major changes have occurred in the industry. The ‘rules of the game’ in air transport are now beginning to change; and it is time to take the story forward. This third edition contains nine new chapters and tackles the following issues amongst others: * Security: The tragic events of 11 September 2001, followed by the war in Iraq, and the resultant heightened tensions over security and passenger safety. * Financial instability: the cyclical downturn in economic activity has led some airlines to the verge of bankruptcy. Even some large well-established carriers are not immune from this. How can the industry look to survive? * Attaining global reach: implications of transborder mergers, open skies agreements and the transatlantic Common Aviation area. Can full globalisation ever be reached? * Low-cost carriers and e-commerce: as both increase, how much the industry re-structure and deal with issues associated with increased passenger traffic and decreased labour requirements? * Airport capacity: Air traffic is estimated to grow at a long-term average annual rate of 5 per cent per annum. But many airports in many parts of the world are already reaching their capacity limits. How can this be overcome and are the environmental implications? Using up to date data and case studies from major international airlines such as United Airlines, British Airways, and Qantas amongst many others, Global Airlines provides a comprehensive insight into today’s global airline industry.

Download or read book Efficiency and Competitiveness of International Airlines written by Almas Heshmati and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-18 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the factors that support the strengths of international airlines in general and the Asian airline carriers in particular. Defining the quality of human capital as the level of education and the competence of airline employees, it analyzes the efficiency of 39 airlines in various regions, both in terms of production and cost structures. It argues that, despite Asia’s well-developed and globally competitive manufacturing sector, aided by open market practices, its overall service sector still lags far behind more advanced economies. As this does not stop Asia-based carriers from generally being more efficient than their counterparts in Europe and North America, the book investigates how competitiveness analysis of the airline industry can help Asian policymakers better prepare for the liberalization of the service sector, given how crucial this aspect is for the future growth of the Asia-Pacific region. Efficiency and Competitiveness of International Airlines offers a valuable resource for policymakers, airline employees, and researchers and students of microeconomics.
