Design of Seaplanes
APPENDIX C3: Design of Seaplanes This appendix is a part of the book General Aviation Aircraft Design: Applied Methods and Procedures by Snorri Gudmundsson, published by Elsevier, Inc. The book is available through various bookstores and online retailers, such as www.elsevier.com, www.amazon.com, and many others. The purpose of the appendices denoted by C1 through C5 is to provide additional information on the design of selected aircraft configurations, beyond what is possible in the main part of Chapter 4, Aircraft Conceptual Layout. Some of the information is intended for the novice engineer, but other is advanced and well beyond what is possible to present in undergraduate design classes. This way, the appendices can serve as a refresher material for the experienced aircraft designer, while introducing new material to the student. Additionally, many helpful design philosophies are presented in the text. Since this appendix is offered online rather than in the actual book, it is possible to revise it regularly and both add to the information and new types of aircraft. The following appendices are offered: C1 – Design of Conventional Aircraft C2 – Design of Canard Aircraft C3 – Design of Seaplanes (this appendix) C4 – Design of Sailplanes C5 – Design of Unusual Configurations Figure C3-1: A Lake LA-250 Renegade, shown here during climb after T-O, is a popular option for amphibious aircraft. The large deflected flap on the horizontal tail is a hydraulically actuated trim tab used for slow speed operations only. It trims out the thrust effect of the highly mounted piston-propeller, improving its handling. -

New sales of established turboprop models are down slightly for everyone year over year through the second quarter.

Air America in South Vietnam I – from the Days of CAT to 1969
Air America in South Vietnam I From the days of CAT to 1969 by Dr. Joe F. Leeker First published on 11 August 2008, last updated on 24 August 2015 I) At the times of CAT Since early 1951, a CAT C-47, mostly flown by James B. McGovern, was permanently based at Saigon1 to transport supplies within Vietnam for the US Special Technical and Economic Mission, and during the early fifties, American military and economic assistance to Indochina even increased. “In the fall of 1951, CAT did obtain a contract to fly in support of the Economic Aid Mission in FIC [= French Indochina]. McGovern was assigned to this duty from September 1951 to April 1953. He flew a C-47 (B-813 in the beginning) throughout FIC: Saigon, Hanoi, Phnom Penh, Vientiane, Nhatrang, Haiphong, etc., averaging about 75 hours a month. This was almost entirely overt flying.”2 CAT’s next operations in Vietnam were Squaw I and Squaw II, the missions flown out of Hanoi in support of the French garrison at Dien Bien Phu in 1953/4, using USAF C-119s painted in the colors of the French Air Force; but they are described in the file “Working in Remote Countries: CAT in New Zealand, Thailand-Burma, French Indochina, Guatemala, and Indonesia”. Between mid-May and mid-August 54, the CAT C-119s continued dropping supplies to isolated French outposts and landed loads throughout Vietnam. When the Communists incited riots throughout the country, CAT flew ammunition and other supplies from Hanoi to Saigon, and brought in tear gas from Okinawa in August.3 Between 12 and 14 June 54, CAT captain -

Rotorcraft Occupant Protection Working Group
ROTORCRAFT OCCUPANT PROTECTION WORKING GROUP TASKS 1 AND 2 COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS REPORT TO THE AVIATION RULEMAKING ADVISORY COMMITTEE (ARAC) Submitted: November 10, 2016 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BACKGROUND In the 1980’s and 1990’s, the FAA amended rotorcraft regulations related to emergency landing conditions and fuel system crash resistance (14 CFR 27/29.561, .562, .785, and .952) to incorporate occupant protection rules in newly certificated rotorcraft. However, as is the case with almost any new regulation, newly manufactured rotorcraft with older certification bases were excluded from the requirements of the new rules. Thus, by the end of 2014 only 16% of the U.S. rotorcraft fleet were fully compliant with the upgraded fuel system requirements, and only 10% were fully compliant with the upgraded emergency landing requirements. The Rotorcraft Occupant Protection Working Group (ROPWG) was formed to study a wide range of issues related to compliance with the current upgraded rules. The initial task, the result of which is presented in this document, was to perform a cost-benefit analysis for incorporating the existing protection standards (14 CFR 27/29.561, .562, .785, and .952) in newly manufactured rotorcraft. COST METHODOLOGY The ROPWG estimated the cost of the proposed regulatory changes by dividing the cost into two categories: • Manufacturer costs, including: o Non-recurring costs: Expenses incurred for design, testing, certification, and retooling to meet compliance with the applicable regulations. This is the expense associated with the effort to develop and certify a fully-compliant aircraft. o Unit costs: Increased expenses incurred for parts and labor required for the installation of mandated features on each aircraft produced. -
