  • Runway Safety Spring 2021 Report
    Graphical NOTAM Interface For Improving Efficiency of Reporting NOTAM Information April 2021 Design Challenge: Runway Safety/Runway Incursions/Runway Excursions Challenge E: Optimizing application of NextGen technology to improve runway safety in particular and airport safety in general. Team Members: Undergraduate Students: Matthew Bacon, Gregory Porcaro, Andrew Vega Advisor’s Name: Dr. Audra Morse Michigan Technological University Table of Contents | 1 02 Executive Summary Runway excursions are a type of aviation incident where an aircraft makes an unsafe exit from the runway. According to the Ascend World Aircraft Accident Summary (WAAS), 141 runway excursion accidents involving the Western-built commercial aircraft fleet occurred globally from 1998 to 2007, resulting in 550 fatalities; 74% of landing phase excursions were caused by either weather-related factors or decision-making factors (Ascend, 2007). One mitigation strategy is training pilots how to interpret Runway Condition Codes (RWYCCs) to understand runway conditions. Recent developments such as NextGen and Electronic Flight Bags (EFBs) have improved the quality of weather condition reporting. However, Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs), the primary source of runway condition information and any other irregularities in airspace, are still presented to pilots in an inefficient format contributing to runway excursions and safety concerns NOTAMs consist of confusing abbreviations and do not effectively convey the relative importance of information. The team developed an Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) user interface that provides a graphical representation of NOTAM and weather information to improve how pilots receive condition changes at airports. The graphical NOTAM interface utilizes Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) to receive real time NOTAM updates.

Strategic This information paper relates to all the Strategic Objectives. Objectives: Financial No additional resources required. implications: References: Doc 7600, Standing Rules of Procedure of the Assembly of the International Civil Aviation Organization 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Air transport is one of the key drivers of global economic growth. In fact, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) estimates that there will be over 6.5 billion passengers and the aviation industry will support 103 million jobs and produce $5.8 trillion in economic activity by 2032. The Air transport industry is one of the primary components of global connectivity. It is a significant enabler of economic prosperity. 1.2 According to the World Economic Forum 2018, Qatar is ranked the second most competitive economy in the Arab region based on their Global Competitiveness Index.

  • Limitations of Spacecraft Redundancy: a Case Study Analysis
    44th International Conference on Environmental Systems Paper Number 13-17 July 2014, Tucson, Arizona Limitations of Spacecraft Redundancy: A Case Study Analysis Robert P. Ocampo1 University of Colorado Boulder, Boulder, CO, 80309 Redundancy can increase spacecraft safety by providing the crew or ground with multiple means of achieving a given function. However, redundancy can also decrease spacecraft safety by 1) adding additional failure modes to the system, 2) increasing design “opaqueness”, 3) encouraging operational risk, and 4) masking or “normalizing” design flaws. Two Loss of Crew (LOC) events—Soyuz 11 and Challenger STS 51-L—are presented as examples of these limitations. Together, these case studies suggest that redundancy is not necessarily a fail-safe means of improving spacecraft safety. I. Introduction A redundant system is one that can achieve its intended function through multiple independent pathways or Aelements 1,2. In crewed spacecraft, redundancy is typically applied to systems that are critical for safety and/or mission success3,4. Since no piece of hardware can be made perfectly reliable, redundancy—in theory—allows for the benign (e.g. non-catastrophic) failure of critical elements. Redundant elements can be 1) similar or dissimilar to each other, 2) activated automatically (“hot spare”) or manually (“cold spare”), and 3) located together or separated geographically5-7. U.S. spacecraft have employed redundancy on virtually all levels of spacecraft design, from component to subsystem7,8. Redundancy has a successful history of precluding critical and catastrophic failures during human spaceflight. A review of NASA mission reports, from Mercury to Space Shuttle, indicates that redundancy has saved the crew or extended the mission over 160 times, or roughly once per flight9.

  • Aviation Occurrence Report Fire in Baggage
    AVIATION OCCURRENCE REPORT FIRE IN BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT INTER CANADIEN FOKKER F-28 MK 1000 C-FCRI JEAN LESAGE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, QUEBEC 05 DECEMBER 1995 REPORT NUMBER A95Q0232 The Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB) investigated this occurrence for the purpose of advancing transportation safety. It is not the function of the Board to assign fault or determine civil or criminal liability. AVIATION OCCURRENCE REPORT FIRE IN BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT INTER CANADIEN FOKKER F-28 MK 1000 C-FCRI JEAN LESAGE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, QUEBEC 05 DECEMBER 1995 REPORT NUMBER A95Q0232 Summary Inter Canadien flight 668 from Montreal, a Fokker F-28 MK 1000, parked at boarding gate 3 of Jean Lesage International Airport, Quebec City. The attendant opened the forward baggage compartment and saw thick white smoke and reddish flames coming out of the compartment. He immediately closed the door and alerted the crew. The pilot-in-command immediately ordered the evacuation of the aircraft and told the co-pilot to notify emergency services. The passengers were evacuated rapidly via the airstair at the left forward door and the evacuation slide at the right forward door. The airport fire-fighters arrived at the scene. They checked the baggage compartment and saw the flames. Fire-fighters equipped with respirators fought the fire inside the baggage compartment using extinguishers. One fire-fighter discharged a dry chemical extinguisher in the baggage compartment then closed the door to suffocate the fire. When the fire was extinguished, the fire-fighter entered the baggage compartment and removed the fire-damaged baggage. The aircraft was inspected, and was ferried that evening to the company maintenance base at Montreal.
