Notice of Adjustments to Service Obligations
Served: May 12, 2020 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON, D.C. CONTINUATION OF CERTAIN AIR SERVICE PURSUANT TO PUBLIC LAW NO. 116-136 §§ 4005 AND 4114(b) Docket DOT-OST-2020-0037 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS TO SERVICE OBLIGATIONS Summary By this notice, the U.S. Department of Transportation (the Department) announces an opportunity for incremental adjustments to service obligations under Order 2020-4-2, issued April 7, 2020, in light of ongoing challenges faced by U.S. airlines due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) public health emergency. With this notice as the initial step, the Department will use a systematic process to allow covered carriers1 to reduce the number of points they must serve as a proportion of their total service obligation, subject to certain restrictions explained below.2 Covered carriers must submit prioritized lists of points to which they wish to suspend service no later than 5:00 PM (EDT), May 18, 2020. DOT will adjudicate these requests simultaneously and publish its tentative decisions for public comment before finalizing the point exemptions. As explained further below, every community that was served by a covered carrier prior to March 1, 2020, will continue to receive service from at least one covered carrier. The exemption process in Order 2020-4-2 will continue to be available to air carriers to address other facts and circumstances. Background On March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Recovery, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act) into law. Sections 4005 and 4114(b) of the CARES Act authorize the Secretary to require, “to the extent reasonable and practicable,” an air carrier receiving financial assistance under the Act to maintain scheduled air transportation service as the Secretary deems necessary to ensure services to any point served by that air carrier before March 1, 2020. -

(a) The commissioner will designate an airport for assigned-space aircraft parking if the commissioner determines in writing that the designation is in the best interest of the state. In making this determination, the commissioner will consider the applicable factors set out at 17 AAC 45.900 and the following: (1) the number of aircraft based at the airport, other than those based on leased premises, the demand for transient aircraft fee parking, and the amount of space available for assigned-space aircraft parking at the airport; (2) the potential impact of assigned-space aircraft parking fees on airport users; and (3) the department's estimate of the cost to implement the requirements of 17 AAC 45.500 - 17 AAC 45.590 at the airport compared to the potential revenue the department would receive for assigned-space aircraft parking at the airport. (b) The department will inform the public that the commissioner has designated an airport for assigned-space aircraft parking by giving notice in accordance with 17 AAC 45.400.

Recreational Flyer January - February 2010 Elevated: Angus Watt’S Ch-750
January - February 2010 Recreational Aircraft Association Canada www.raa.ca The Voice of Canadian Amateur Aircraft Builders $6.95 Elevated: Angus Watt's CH-750 Elevated: The original Zenith 701 was designed as an Angus Watt’s Ch-750 ultralight go-anywhere all metal bush plane that could be plans built by anyone with a 4 ft tabletop bending brake and a pair of snips. It was rarely described as a thing of beauty but so well does it fulfill its mission that these planes are found all over the world. They are inexpensive to construct, and because of their leading edge slats they can get in and out of extremely short patches of clear ground. 22 Recreational Flyer January - February 2010 Elevated: Angus Watt’s Ch-750 WITH THE ADVENT of the Light Sport category in and the only part interchangeable with the 701 is the US, Chris Heintz saw the need for an updated the signature Zenith all-flying rudder. Formerly the version, something with a larger cabin, greater skins were all .016” and they are now .020 to handle payload, and the ability to use an array of four the greater mass of the range of possible four stroke stroke engines. The CH 750 was the result and its engines and the 1320 pound gross weight on wheels, lineage is visually apparent but while the new plane 1430 on floats. resembles the 701 it is almost completely different in Chris Heintz correctly surmised that the US construction. CNC fabrication methods have made Light Sport category would be attractive to aging it possible to simplify the design, speed up the con- American pilots who wanted to bargain down to struction, and end up with a larger and faster plane their Sport Pilot category that allows a valid driver’s at only a slight weight penalty. -
Evaluation of the Alaska Interagency Aviation Safety Initiative
Evaluation of the Alaska Interagency Aviation Safety Initiative Prepared for: National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health Matt Berman Stephanie Martin Alexandra Hill Institute of Social and Economic Research University of Alaska Anchorage September 2005 Evaluation of the Alaska Interagency Aviation Safety Initiative 1. Introduction Aviation crashes are the leading cause of occupational fatalities in Alaska. From 1990 through 1999, aviation crashes in Alaska caused 106 work-related pilot deaths. This rate is nearly five times the rate for U.S. pilots as a whole.1 In 2000, Congress passed legislation aimed at reducing the number of occupational aviation fatalities in Alaska by 50 percent for the years 2000 through 2009. This legislation created an interagency initiative—the Alaska Aviation Safety Initiative—to improve safety in Alaska through the combined efforts of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the National Transportation and Safety Board (NTSB), the NOAAs National Weather Service (NWS), and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH).2 The original proposal for the initiative was developed in September 1999, at the invitation of Alaska’s Senator Ted Stevens and the recommendation of Jim Hall, Chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). The initiative began as a three-year renewable commitment (FY 2000-2002) with NIOSH acting as the lead agency. Congress appropriated approximately $800,000 per year to fund the initiative. The four agencies have designated senior staff to function as the Alaska leadership team for the initiative. The team meets quarterly to plan, coordinate, and evaluate programs.3 The objectives of the Alaska Aviation Safety Initiative (the Initiative) are: • To reduce the number of aircraft crashes and deaths; • To promote aviation safety within the air transportation industry in Alaska through epidemiologic risk analysis of aircraft crashes; and • To evaluate aviation safety interventions. -
Capstone Program Plan (Draft)
DRAFT Federal Aviation Administration Alaskan Region Capstone Program Management Office 801 B Street, Suite 500 Anchorage, Alaska 99501 Capstone Program Plan DRAFT Version 3.0 12 June 2001 ALASKAN REGION Investment in Safety DRAFT PREAMBLE This document is designed as an umbrella program plan for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Alaskan Region Capstone Program. The term umbrella, as it is used here, means the contents are intended to create high level objectives from which detailed work plans can be developed and accomplished. Each organization that accepts tasking under a particular objective or element takes with it the responsibility for developing a work plan, generating procedures for participants to use their element, and for recording and reporting the progress made toward validation. To accommodate future developments facilitated by the Capstone Program efforts, the number and the date of each successive program plan version is printed on the cover. This Capstone Program Plan version 3.0 is complimentary to Versions 1.0 and 2.0. These previous versions established the initial Capstone avionics and ground infrastructure. Version 3.0 documents the activities supporting the infrastructure in the Bethel/Yukon-Kuskokwim delta area, planning for expansion to Juneau/Southeast Alaska, and establishing ties to future implementation work, with the main focus on FY 2001. DRAFT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Capstone Program accelerates efforts to improve aviation safety and efficiency through a multi-year introduction of current and emerging concepts and technologies. According to information published by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, accident rates in Alaska are elevated up to 400 percent above the national average. -
