Download or read book EXPLORE FLIGHT written by Anita Yasuda and published by Nomad Press. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who invented the airplane? When were airplanes invented? And why do planes have wings if the wings don’t flap? Kids can answer these questions and more by jumping into the cockpit and soaring into Explore Flight! With 25 Great Projects, where they’ll learn about the history of our human obsession to conquer the feat of flying. For kids ages 6-9, Explore Flight! With 25 Great Projects introduces them to the dreamers, inventors, aviation pioneers, and record breakers. They will read about the myths and legends of flying and about the wondrous flying machines of the past, present and future. They will learn that in the 15th century Leonardo da Vinci drew sketches of airplanes, helicopters and other flying machines, and that the first passengers in a hot air balloon were a sheep, a rooster, and a duck. Along the way, they will develop a better understanding of the rich history of aviation, investigate what causes flight, and learn about the science of aerodynamics. Projects and experiments range from making a paper airplane to building an airfoil. All the projects in this book are easy to follow, require little adult supervision, and use commonly found household products, many from the recycling.
Download or read book Testing Aircraft Exploring Space written by Roger E. Bilstein and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected by Choice Magazine as an Outstanding Academic Title for 2003 The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics—forerunner of today's NASA—emerged in 1915, when airplanes were curiosities made of wood and canvas and held together with yards of baling wire. At the time an unusual example of government intrusion (and foresight, given the importance of aviation to national military concerns), the committee oversaw the development of wind tunnels, metal fabrication, propeller design, and powerful new high-speed aircraft during the 1920s and '30s. In this richly illustrated account, acclaimed historian of aviation Roger E. Bilstein combines the story of NACA and NASA to provide a fresh look at the agencies, the problems they faced, and the hard work as well as inventive genius of the men and women who found the solutions. NACA research during World War II led to critical advances in U.S. fighter and bomber design and, Bilstein explains, contributed to engineering standards for helicopters. After 1945 the agency's test pilots experimented with jet-powered aircraft, testing both human and technical limits in trying to break the so-called "sound barrier." In October 1958, when the launch of the Soviet Sputnik signaled the beginning of the space race, NACA formed the nucleus of the new National Aeronautics and Space Agency. The new agency's efforts to meet President Kennedy's challenge—safely landing a man on the Moon and returning him to Earth before the end of the 1960s—is one of the great adventure stories of all time. Bilstein goes on to describe NASA's recent planetary and extraplanetary exploration, as well as its less well-known research into the future of aeronautical design.

This book was released on 2015-08-30 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A must read for researchers and practitioners with a personal and professional desire to improve general aviation safety. As a general aviation enthusiast and researcher, the author wants to ensure general aviation remains a viable and flourishing sector of the aviation industry. This book highlights a growing phenomenon of integrating innovative technologies in general aviation. The goal is to ensure technologists, researchers and the aviation industry ameliorate collaborative endeavors to counterbalance the pros and cons of integrating technologies in general aviation to decrease the number of accidents and fatalities. Technologically advanced aircraft are fascinating and pilots with the proper training are able to capitalize on flying advanced aircraft with comparable technologies that are analogous to commercial and military aircraft. This book expounds on general aviation pilots' concerns with integrating glass cockpits in general aviation. The research within corroborates a previous study that technologically advanced aircraft have not improved general aviation safety. At issue are training, safety, proficiency and competency, and aeronautical decision-making implications. General aviation remains under researched when compared to commercial and military aviation sectors. This book provides recommendations for improving general aviation safety by eliminating the after-effects of innovations in general aviation. accidents, adaptable automation, aeronautical decision-making, aeronautical examination, air traffic control, air transport industry, aircraft, analog gauges, assessments, Automation management, autopilot, aviation, aviation leaders, Aviation Safety Officer (ASO), Aviation Safety Program (ASP), avionics, certified flight instructors, cockpit instrumentation, cockpit scanning, cockpit standardization, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), commercial aviation, Crew Resource Management (CRM), curriculum, data analysis, decision-making skills, dispatchers, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), FITS training, Fixed-wing aircraft, flight management systems, flight schools, flight training, Future Aviation Advisory Committee (FAAC), General Aviation Joint Steering Committee (GAJSC), glass cockpits, global positioning systems, Government Accountability Office, ground controllers, Human Factors Analysis & Classification System, International Civil Aviation Organization, National Aeronautics & Space Administration (NASA), National Transportation Safety Board , NextGen, pilots, Safety Management System (SMS), Single-pilot resource management, snowball sampling, technologically advanced aircraft (TAA), training deficiency, van Kaam model #accidents, #adaptableautomation, #aeronauticaldecision-making, #aeronauticalexamination, #airtrafficcontrol, #airtransportindustry, #aircraft, #analoggauges, #assessments, #Automationmanagement, #autopilot, #aviation, #aviationleaders, #AviationSafetyOfficer(ASO), #AviationSafetyProgram(ASP), #avionics, #certifiedflightinstructors, #cockpitinstrumentation, #cockpitscanning, #cockpitstandardization, #CodeofFederalRegulations(CFR), #commercialaviation, #CrewResourceManagement(CRM), #curriculum, #dataanalysis, #decision-makingskills, #dispatchers, #FederalAviationAdministration(FAA), #FITStraining, #Fixed-wingaircraft, #flightmanagementsystems(FMS), #flightschools, #flighttraining, #FutureAviationAdvisoryCommittee(FAAC), #GeneralAviationJointSteeringCommittee(GAJSC), #glasscockpits, #globalpositioningsystems(GPS), #GovernmentAccountabilityOffice(GAO), #groundcontrollers, #HumanFactorsAnalysisandClassificationSystem, #InternationalCivilAviationOrganization(ICAO), #NationalAeronauticsandSpaceAdministration(NASA), #NationalTransportationSafetyBoard(NTSB), #NextGenerationofAirTransportationSystem(NextGen), #pilots, #SafetyManagementSystem(SMS), #Single-pilotresourcemanagement, #snowballsampling, #technologicallyadvancedaircraft(TAA), #trainingdeficiency, #vanKaammodel
Download or read book Competency Based Education in Aviation written by Suzanne K. Kearns and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether a trainee is studying air traffic control, piloting, maintenance engineering, or cabin crew, they must complete a set number of training 'hours' before being licensed or certified. The aviation industry is moving away from an hours-based to a competency-based training system. Within this approach, training is complete when a learner can demonstrate competent performance. Training based on competency is an increasingly popular approach in aviation. It allows for an alternate means of compliance with international regulations - which can result in shorter and more efficient training programs. However there are also challenges with a competency-based approach. The definition of competency-based education can be confusing, training can be reductionist and artificially simplistic, professional interpretation of written competencies can vary between individuals, and this approach can have a high administrative and regulatory burden. Competency-Based Education in Aviation: Exploring Alternate Training Pathways explores this approach to training in great detail, considering the four aviation professional groups of air traffic control, pilots, maintenance engineers, and cabin crew. Aviation training experts were interviewed and have contributed professional insights along with personal stories and anecdotes associated with competency-based approaches in their fields. Research-based and practical strategies for the effective creation, delivery, and assessment of competency-based education are described in detail.
