    JUNE 2020 EMERGENCY EVACUATION OF COMMERCIAL PASSENGER AEROPLANES SECOND EDITION 2020 @aerosociety A specialist paper from the Royal Aeronautical Society www.aerosociety.com About the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) The Royal Aeronautical Society (‘the Society’) is the world’s only professional body and learned society dedicated to the entire aerospace community. Established in 1866 to further the art, science and engineering of aeronautics, the Society has been at the forefront of developments in aerospace ever since. The Society seeks to; (i) promote the highest possible standards in aerospace disciplines; (ii) provide specialist information and act as a central forum for the exchange of ideas; and (iii) play a leading role in influencing opinion on aerospace matters. The Society has a range of specialist interest groups covering all aspects of the aerospace world, from airworthiness and maintenance, unmanned aircraft systems and aerodynamics to avionics and systems, general aviation and air traffic management, to name a few. These groups consider developments in their fields and are instrumental in providing industry-leading expert opinion and evidence from their respective fields. About the Honourable Company of Air Pilots (Incorporating Air Navigators) Who we are The Company was established as a Guild in 1929 in order to ensure that pilots and navigators of the (then) fledgling aviation industry were accepted and regarded as professionals. From the beginning, the Guild was modelled on the lines of the Livery Companies of the City of London, which were originally established to protect the interests and standards of those involved in their respective trades or professions. In 1956, the Guild was formally recognised as a Livery Company.

  • Indian Ocean Based Air Austral Becomes First French A220 Operator
    Indian Ocean based Air Austral becomes first French A220 operator @Airbus @AirAustral #A220 Mirabel, Canada, 27 July 2021 – The first of the three A220s for Air Austral, France’s La Réunion Island-based airline, has been delivered from the Airbus A220 Final Assembly Line (FAL) in Mirabel, Canada. The second and third aircraft are expected to join the Air Austral fleet in the coming days. Airbus is delighted to welcome Air Austral as a new Airbus customer and operator. This A220 will be the first of the type to be operated by a French airline in the Indian Ocean region. Air Austral has selected the Airbus A220-300 as part of its medium and short-haul fleet modernisation plan in order to boost its operational efficiency, offering an enhanced passenger experience in a comfortable two-class cabin layout with 132 seats: 12 in business class and 120 in economy-class. Bearing the airline’s distinctive livery representing La Reunion Island’s beautiful landscapes, Air Austral will strengthen its regional network with three A220-300s, flying on routes between La Réunion Island and Mauritius, Mayotte, Seychelles, South Africa, Madagascar, and as far as India. Powered by latest-generation geared turbofan engines, Pratt & Whitney PurePower PW1500G, the A220 is the quietest and most eco-friendly aircraft in its category. The aircraft features a 50% reduced noise footprint compared to previous generation aircraft, 25% lower fuel burn and CO2 emissions per seat as well as 50% lower NOx emissions than current industry standards. To date over 160 A220s have been delivered, operating routes in Asia, North America, Europe and Africa, proving the great versatility of Airbus’ new generation single-aisle family member.
