  • The Years of Change
    The Years of Change In early January of 1993 all the B-2 structural tests were successfully completed. The static load tests were taken to failure to 161% of maximum stress, and the durability test completed more than 2 lifetimes, which represented 20,000 design flight hours. January 1993 confidence was high for the $4-billion PAMPA Program as the company prepared to complete its first flight evaluation aircraft. However, the realities of the “post-cold war” era forced management to gear up for a tough year as the battle of the defense budget continued in Washington. The ailing commercial aviation industry presented additional challenges for the company. Boeing cut production on all their programs, and 1993 looked very gloomy. The company announced plans for down-sizing up to 1,500 people by the end of the year. Vought president Gordon Williams streamlined the management team to help the company ride out the business downturn, and still continue to meet its customer requirements. He stated that “business will be smaller but stronger.” In March 1993 Vought shipped its last engine nacelle for the Canadair business jet while continuing production on the regional jet nacelles. The 500th horizontal stabilizer for the Boeing 767 was shipped during March, and 141 employees elected to retire. In the meantime, Loral Corporation formed a new missiles group by combining Loral Vought Systems and Loral Aeronutronic during the month. At the end of April, 104 employees elected to retire. McDonnell Douglas certified Vought’s business processes in early May, which was another milestone on the way to becoming a preferred supplier for McDonnell Douglas.

  • Aviation Activity Forecasts BOWERS FIELD AIRPORT AIRPORT MASTER PLAN
    Chapter 3 – Aviation Activity Forecasts BOWERS FIELD AIRPORT AIRPORT MASTER PLAN Chapter 3 – Aviation Activity Forecasts The overall goal of aviation activity forecasting is to prepare forecasts that accurately reflect current conditions, relevant historic trends, and provide reasonable projections of future activity, which can be translated into specific airport facility needs anticipated during the next twenty years and beyond. Introduction This chapter provides updated forecasts of aviation activity for Kittitas County Airport – Bowers Field (ELN) for the twenty-year master plan horizon (2015-2035). The most recent FAA-approved aviation activity forecasts for Bowers Field were prepared in 2011 for the Airfield Needs Assessment project. Those forecasts evaluated changes in local conditions and activity that occurred since the previous master plan forecasts were prepared in 2000, and re-established base line conditions. The Needs Assessment forecasts provide the “accepted” airport-specific projections that are most relevant for comparison with the new master plan forecasts prepared for this chapter. The forecasts presented in this chapter are consistent with Bowers Field’s current and historic role as a community/regional general aviation airport. Bowers Field is the only airport in Kittitas County capable of accommodating a full range of general aviation activity, including business class turboprops and business jets. This level of capability expands the airport’s role to serve the entire county and the local Ellensburg community. The intent is to provide an updated set of aviation demand projections for Bowers Field that will permit airport management to make the decisions necessary to maintain a viable, efficient, and cost-effective facility that meets the area’s air transportation needs.

  • Gulfstream's History
    BACKGROUNDER The Gulfstream Fleet Gulfstream’s comprehensive product line offers an exceptional combination of safety, comfort, performance and value in each segment of the mid- to ultra-large-cabin business-jet market. The Gulfstream G650 and G650ER have the largest purpose-built business-jet cabins, offering passengers wider seats, more aisle room, 16 panoramic windows and the lowest cabin altitude of any business jet. The cabins also feature the quietest cabin sound levels, 100 percent fresh air and in-flight connectivity. Both aircraft can accommodate passengers and crew in conference, dining and entertainment areas with sleeping for up to 10. The G650ER, the company’s flagship, is the world’s longest-range business jet and provides outstanding mission flexibility. On one of its earliest flights, the aircraft flew nonstop from Los Angeles International Airport to Tullamarine Airport in Melbourne, Australia, in just under 15 hours at an average speed of Mach 0.86. The G650 and the G650ER combined hold more than 60 city-pair records and can both traverse the world in practically one stop. Current G650 owners and order-holders can upgrade their aircraft to a G650ER. Powered by Rolls-Royce engines, the G650 and G650ER travel at speeds up to Mach 0.925, more than nine-tenths the speed of sound, and can fly far above airline-traffic congestion and adverse weather, resulting in smoother flights and fewer delays. The aircraft feature the most technologically advanced PlaneViewTM II flight deck with intuitive systems that ease pilots’ workload and enhance safety. In 2015, the G650 was awarded the 2014 Robert J.

  • Aviation Facility Requirements Chapter Four Port of Portland
    PORT OF PORTLAND Chapter Four AVIATION FACILITY REQUIREMENTS CHAPTER FOUR PORT OF PORTLAND AVIATIONAVIATION FACILITYFACILITY REQUIREMENTSREQUIREMENTS In this chapter, existing components of the airport are evaluated to identify the capacities of the overall system. Once identified, the existing capacity is compared to the forecast activity levels prepared in Chapter Three to determine where deficiencies currently exist, or may be expected to materialize in the future. Once deficiencies in a component are identified, a more specific determination of the approximate sizing and timing of the new facilities can be made. The objective of this effort is to identify, in general terms, the adequacy of the existing airport facilities and outline what new facilities may be needed and when they may be needed to accommodate forecast demands. Having established these facility requirements, alternatives for providing these facilities will be evaluated in Chapter Five to determine the most cost- effective and efficient means for implementation. As stated previously, the Hillsboro Airport Master Plan covers a 20-year period through 2025. The base year used for starting the forecasting effort and in turn the capacity analysis is the year 2003. The first year for implementation of Master Plan recommendations is expected to be 2006, which will be the beginning of the Short Term Planning Horizon. The Short Term Planning Horizon covers the first five years of the 20-year planning period (2006-2010). The Intermediate Term Planning Horizon encompasses the next five years (2011 4-1 through 2015). The Long Term Plan- schedule of planned improvements ning Horizon would correlate to the provides flexibility in development final 10 years of the planning period since development schedules can be (2016 through 2025).

  • Fly-By-Wire: Getting Started on the Right Foot and Staying There…
    Fly-by-Wire: Getting started on the right foot and staying there… Imagine yourself getting into the cockpit of an aircraft, finishing your preflight checks, and taxiing out to the runway ready for takeoff. You begin the takeoff roll and start to rotate. As you lift off, you discover your side stick controller is not responding correctly to your commands. Panic sets in, and you feel that you’ve lost total control of the aircraft. Thanks to quick action from your second in command, he takes over and stabilizes the aircraft so that you both can plan to return to the airport under reversionary mode. This situation could have been a catastrophe. This happened in August of 2001. A Lufthansa Airbus A320 came within less than two feet and a few seconds of crashing during takeoff on a planned flight from Frankfurt to Paris. Preliminary reports indicated that maintenance was performed on the captain’s sidestick controller immediately before the incident. This had inadvertently created a situation in which control inputs were reversed. The case reveals that at least two "filters," or safety defenses, were breached, leading to a near-crash shortly after rotation at Frankfurt’s Runway 18. Quick action by the first officer prevented a catastrophe. Lufthansa Technik personnel found a damaged pin on one segment of the four connector segments (with 140 pins on each) at the "rack side," as it were, of the avionics mount. This incident prompted an article to be published in the 2003 November-December issue of the Flight Safety Mechanics Bulletin. The report detailed all that transpired during the maintenance and subsequent release of the aircraft.
