  • 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.

  • U.S. Coast Guard Port Security Unit History
    U.S. Coast Guard Port Security Unit History Early Roots The roots of the Coast Guard's deployable port security mission are traced back to World War I and World War II and the traditional CONUS port safety and security duties of the Captain of the Port (COTP). During World War II, some overseas COTP-type operations were carried out by the Coast Guard in both the Pacific and European Theaters. Experiences in Vietnam demonstrated that a need for Coast Guard port security capabilities in overseas ports continued to exist. During the early 1980's, DoD planners formally identified the need for port security forces in OCONUS seaports of debarkation. Dialogue began between the Army, Navy, and Coast Guard, and the concept of the deployable Port Security Unit (PSU) was born. In January 1985 the Commandant approved three notional PSUs to respond to the requirements of DoD operations plans. The three units were located in the Ninth Coast Guard District at Buffalo, NY, Cleveland, OH, and Milwaukee, WI. Mission Defined PSUs are organized, equipped, and trained to operate in joint security areas, specifically in accessible (ice-free) harbors and port areas worldwide in support of regional Combatant Commanders’ requirements, and in company with DoD for national defense regional contingencies. PSUs provide 24-hour operations under all environmental conditions within the limits of equipment and personnel. PSUs normally protect vessels in transit, at the pier/port complex, or along the waterfront facility. Harbor defense and port security operations are frequently characterized by confined and traffic-congested water and air space. Notional Mission Assessment In the years between the approval of the three notional PSUs and their first deployment in 1990, the PSUs suffered from inconsistent budgetary, programmatic, and training support.
