Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: The safety of enroute operations of aircraft engaged in public transport has been a continuous concern since the early days of air transportation. There are a variety of inflight emergency situations which can create a need to land the aircraft as soon as safely possible: fire in cargo compartments or toilet areas, incapacitated crew members or a medical problem with a passenger, insufficient fuel or oil, failure of one or more engines, or failure of other major aircraft systems such as electrical or cabin pressurization systems. All of these occur frequently enough in public air transport to cause airline operators and airworthiness authorities to consider the time to reach airports suitable for enroute diversion as a factor in planning and approving the operation of any aircraft along its intended route. One of the inflight emergencies which does occur commonly in air transport is the failure or inflight shutdown (IFSD) of an engine. The shutdown of a single engine creates a situation where aircraft are exposed to the risk of an independent failure of a second engine, during the period of the flight to a diversion airport. For a twin-engine transport aircraft, this "double independent failure" case leaves the aircraft with no means of propulsion, and may be considered a catastrophic event since the probability of fatalities in the ensuing forced landing away from an airport is very high. The past five years have seen the introduction of operations by modern twin-engine turbofan transport aircraft on long-haul oceanic routes. These have been dubbed ETOPS (Extended-Range Twin-Engine Operations). This caused a review of the safety of enroute operations by twin-engine aircraft with an emphasis on the situation where there might be an inflight shutdown of one engine. Various airworthiness authorities around the world have established safety regulations to approve ETOPS operations by a specific operator and aircraft-engine combination on "extended range" (ER) routes. In 1986, ICAO amended Annex 6 of its International Standards and Recommended Practices to provide guidance on "extended range operations by aeroplanes with two power-units (ETOPS)" to its contracting states. In June 1985, the FAA issued its Advisory Circular AC 120-42 which "states an acceptable means, but not the only means for obtaining approval under FAR 121.161 for two-engine airplanes to operate over a route that contains a point farther than one hour flying time at the normal one-engine inoperative cruise speed (in still air) from an adequate airport." By the end of 1986, there had been a few years of experience with ETOPS activity by several US and foreign carriers on the North Atlantic routes and in other areas of the world. This study is a review of the current ETOPS situation, carried out for the Transportation Systems Center and the Office of Aviation Safety, FAA, at the request of the FAA Administrator. While the activity of the past five years has focused on extended-range operations of twin-engine transport aircraft, there now seems to be general agreement that some of the regulatory actions should be extended to cover ER operations by all transport aircraft.

Book excerpt: On January 16, 2007, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued revised regulatory material relating to the operation of all aircraft on flights with the potential for extended time diversions. As a result, the term ETOPS has been redefined as "Extended Operations" and now includes the operation of all transport aircraft, regardless of the number of engines (except All- Cargo operations of airplanes with more than 2-engines), further than specific threshold times from available enroute diversion airports.The new FAA rules, while still limiting two-engine airplanes to routes that remain within 60 minutes from an Adequate Airport, unless the operator is approved for ETOPS, will now allow two-engine airplanes to be flown on ETOPS routes with diversion times greater than 240 minutes flying time in certain geographic regions. Passenger airplanes with more than two engines will also be required to meet ETOPS requirements under the new rules, whenever they are operated more than 180 minutes from an Adequate Airport. ETOPS Operational Approvals may be granted to operators if the airframe/engine combination being used has been approved for such flights and the operator has established acceptable operations and maintenance programs. FAA Advisory Circulars, AC 120-42B and AC 135-42, provide guidelines for the additional operations, maintenance, reliability and training programs that are required of an FAA ETOPS operator.

Download or read book Beyond the Black Box written by George Bibel and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2008-01-31 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The black box is orange—and there are actually two of them. They house the cockpit voice recorder and the flight data recorder, instruments vital to airplane crash analyses. But accident investigators cannot rely on the black boxes alone. Beginning with the 1931 Fokker F-10A crash that killed legendary football coach Knute Rockne, this fascinating book provides a behind-the-scenes look at plane wreck investigations. Professor George Bibel shows how forensic experts, scientists, and engineers analyze factors like impact, debris, loading, fire patterns, metallurgy, fracture, crash testing, and human tolerances to determine why planes fall from the sky—and how the information gleaned from accident reconstruction is incorporated into aircraft design and operation to keep commercial aviation as safe as possible.
Download or read book Influence of Psychological Factors on Product Development written by E.S. Kamata and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-01-19 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the interrelationship of social, technical, and organizational aspects of and related to the product development process. It originated from activities in practice in industry and research laboratories. In order to ensure relative autonomy from the short-term economic interests of a given industrial branch or specific company, the research for this work was first conducted in pursuit of a PhD thesis intended to provide practice-oriented results. With the ansatz practice – theory – practice, a generalizable approach was achieved. It then evolved to cover additional issues brought forth by recent cases in the aerospace industry, among others. A combination of scientific methodologies is used to focus on the psychological factors that influence the quality of technical product development processes. The basic framework is provided by the grounded theory—a qualitative approach, in which data was not only collected by this author but is extended to cases from the history of technology described in the published literature. The inclusion of historical cases is possible, thanks to the availability of sufficiently detailed descriptions for examination in terms of the grounded theory principles. They appear in the Appendix. Cases cited were verified by comparing them with contrasting viewpoints from various sources. I was able to examine and complement some cases by contacting persons associated with the programs analyzed. Quantitative studies are also integrated in this research to verify the elements resulting from the grounded theory integration.
