Bruggink for Outstanding Contributions to Technical Excellence in Accident Investigation Mr. Bruggink's career in aviation has spanned four decades of tremendous growth in aviation. His personal contributions as a pilot, flight instructor, accident investigator, safe­ ty researcher and accident investigation manager have contributed directly to continued im­ provement in the safety of air travel. At the time of his ret irement in 1979 he was the Deputy Director of the Bureau of Acci­ dent Investigation of the United States National Transportation Safety Board. Mr. Brug­ gink has published numerous technical papers on accident investigation, passing on to other investigators his great wealth of understanding of the process of investigation and of the lessons learned through investigation that have made air transportation safer for all members of the public. winter 1979 The Australian Air Safety Incident Reporting System G.

  • Castles Along the Rhine; the Middle Rhine
    CASTLES ALONG THE RHINE; THE MIDDLE RHINE The Middle Rhine is between Mainz and Cologne (or Köln) but the section of maximum interest for river cruisers is between Koblenz and Rűdesheim. This section is where they keep some of Germany’s best kept medieval keeps - 20 of them, some ruins, some preserved, all surrounded by vineyards and with quaint medieval towns. Around every bend another stone edifice stands watch over the endless parade of freight barges and cruise boats. Each castle has its own spot in Germany’s medieval past. Your river cruise will spend at least an afternoon cruising this section with everyone on deck with a cup of bullion, tea, coffee or a beverage depending on the weather and the cruise director providing commentary on each castle/town you pass. The Rhine gorge castles are bracketed by Germanic / Prussian monuments. At the south end is Rűdesheim with the Niederwalddenkmal monument, commemorating the foundation of the German “Empire” after the Franco- Prussian War. The first stone was laid in 1871, by Wilhelm I. The 38m (123 ft) monument represents the union of all Germans. The central figure is a 10.5 m (34 ft) Germania holding the crown of the emperor in the right hand and in the left the imperial sword. Beneath Germania is a large relief that shows emperor Wilhelm I riding a horse with nobility, the army commanders and soldiers. On the left side of the monument is the peace statue and on the right is the war statue. At the north end in Koblenz is Deutsches Eck (German Corner) where the Mosel and Rhine Rivers meet.
