  • Week of August 10, 2015 – the Concorde Plane Disaster I Can
    Week of August 10, 2015 – The Concorde Plane Disaster I can remember a few times in my life when I was at JFK and getting ready to taxi to/from my gate when the pilot would call everyone’s attention to look out the window to catch a glimpse of the famous Concorde plane parked at a gate. For years, since its maiden voyage in January 1976 (there were actually two simultaneous Concorde flights: one taking off from London and the other from Paris), the Concorde was the pinnacle of commercial air travel. With a takeoff speed of 250 mph and a cruising speed of 1350 mph (more than twice the speed of sound) a typical London to New York crossing would take a little less than three and a half hours as opposed to about eight hours for a subsonic flight. It happened 15 years ago (July, 2000) when Air France flight 4590, a charter destined for New York’s JFK from Paris hit disaster. As it neared takeoff speed, the Concorde struck a thin metal strip on the runway, causing one of its tires to burst. The strip had fallen from the underside of a Continental Airlines DC-10 that had departed minutes earlier, bound for Houston. Chunks of the burst tire impacting the Concorde’s wing at tremendous velocity, resulting in a powerful shock wave within the wing’s fuel tank that ultimately punctured it. Gases from the engines then ignited leaking fuel, touching off a huge fire. The crew wrestled the crippled jet into the air, but lost control moments later, slamming into a hotel.

Its engines were dirty and painfully noisy. It was banned from flying supersonic over the United States because of the sonic boom. SIX SIGMA – a way to reach Operational Excellence and get Out of the Crisis Concorde • Concorde was effectively blocked from entering the crucial U.S. market when airlines in this country, including TWA and Pan American, canceled orders. • "Looking back at the entire program, from beginning to end, if you knew then what you know now, then Concorde would never have been built," Bannister. SIX SIGMA – a way to reach Operational Excellence and get Out of the Crisis Concorde • On 25 July 2000, Air France Flight 4590 crashed in Gonesse, France, killing all 100 passengers and 9 crew members. • According to the official investigation conducted by the French accident investigation bureau (BEA), the crash was caused by a titanium strip that fell from a Continental Airlines DC-10 that had taken off minutes earlier. The metal fragment punctured a tyre on Concorde’s left main wheel bogie during takeoff.

  • FOD Awareness
    FOD Awareness What is FOD? Foreign Object Debris (FOD) can be as simple as a nut, a piece of concrete, a piece of paper, a stone, a suitcase handle, a screwdriver or a passenger. Throwaway items are inherently dangerous. In the working environment of an apron, they contribute to the damage or potential damage to aircraft, ground equipment and perhaps even endanger life. Foreign Object Debris can lead to Foreign Object Damage. Examples of FOD • Aircraft parts, rocks, broken pavement, ramp equipment, and vehicle parts: Damage usually occurs when the aircraft is taking off or landing. The intake suction from a jet engine is powerful enough to suck up loose material lying on the runway, and the winds created by a helicopter or prop-driven aircraft's rotors or by a jet blast can send such objects airborne, creating hazards to nearby personnel. • Parts from ground vehicles • Garbage, maintenance tools, etc. mistakenly or purposely deposited on tarmac and/or runway surfaces. • Hail can break windshields and damage or stop engines. • Ice on the wings, propellers, or engine intakes • Dust or ash clogging the air intakes (as in sandstorms in desert operating conditions or ash clouds in volcanic eruptions). • Tools, bolts, metal shavings, lock wire, etc. mistakenly left behind inside aircraft during the manufacturing process or maintenance. Generally speaking, bird strikes (when an aero plane flies into a bird, the impact can cause severe damage from a bird striking the fuselage, engine, etc) are not considered to be FOD strikes, unless the bird or wildlife was already dead and lying on the operating surface when the strike occurred.
