Eastern Research Group (ERG) developed emissions inventories for criteria and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). The inventories will be used to support the State Implementation Plan (SIP) and other airport-related inquiries. The emissions associated with airport activities are attributed to the following sources with associated source classification codes (SCC): Commercial aviation (SCC: 2275020000) Air taxis . Piston driven (SCC: 2275060011) . Turbine driven (SCC: 2275060012) General aviation . Piston driven (SCC: 2275050011) . Turbine driven (SCC: 2275050012) Military (SCC: 2275001000) Auxiliary Power Units (SCC: 2275070000) Ground Support Equipment . Compressed natural gas (CNG)-fueled (SCC: 2268008005) . Diesel-fueled (SCC: 2270008005) . Gasoline-fueled (SCC: 2265008005) . Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)-fueled (SCC: 2267008005). To estimate emissions from these sources, ERG used the original activity data obtained for Work Order 582-11-99776-FY12-09 for calendar year 2011 which included local airport data and publicly available activity data. Additionally, ERG, via TCEQ, also obtained local aircraft specific data from the DFW area from the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) during the previous work order as well. Two approaches were used to estimate emissions from the compiled activity data. For activity data that included aircraft-specific data, ERG used the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) Aviation Environmental Design Tool (AEDT) to estimate emissions. If such detailed data were not available, ERG applied a more general approach for different aircraft types (i.e., air taxis, general aviation, and military aircraft) using the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s

  • “I Have the Fokker in Sight!”
    “I have the Fokker in sight!” After some delays caused by tropical cyclone “Gita” the first of our two Fokker F27 Friendship aircraft arrived from New Zealand on Monday 27 February. Now registered VH-EWH, the Friendship departed Auckland on Sunday 26 February, stopping to refuel at Norfolk Island before proceeding to Coolangatta to clear customs. The intention was to proceed to Wollongong that same day, but bad weather in the Illawarra dictated an overnight stay at Coolangatta. The second aircraft will be ferried sometime in the next few months. In Australian service the Fokker F27 Friendship was operated from the late 1950’s by many of the domestic and regional airlines. Some of the Australian airlines which operated the type include Trans Australia Airlines, Ansett ANA, East West, Queensland Airlines, Bill Peach’s Aircruising Australia and Airlines of NSW. The type was also operated by the Department of Civil Aviation and CSIRO. The Fokker F27 was developed during the early 1950’s and was intended to compete with or replace piston engine aircraft such as the DC-3. It uses Rolls Royce Dart turboprop engines, is pressurised and, in typical configuration seats around 50 passengers. Our F27s were most recently in service with a company that provided services to New Zealand Post and our Kiwi readers would be well familiar with the sight and unique sounds of the F27s as they made their way around the mail runs. Convair CV-440 progress The return to flight project for our Convair CV-440 made significant progress this month with completion of the new engine installation.

  • Hold for Release Until July 21, 2017 Wipaire's Laser Gear Advisory
    WIPLINE FLOATS • SKIS • MODIFICATIONS • AIRCRAFT SALES AVIONICS • INTERIOR • MAINTENANCE • PAINT REFINISHING Hold For Release Until July 21, 2017 Wipaire’s Laser Gear Advisory System Now Standard and Available for Retrofit South Saint Paul, Minnesota, July 21, 2017 – Wipaire, Inc.’s exclusive, safety-enhancing Laser Gear Advisory system is now included at no additional cost on new Wipline float purchases, and is available for retrofit on Wipline-equipped aircraft. Introductory pricing for retrofit kits is $4,995 uninstalled. The laser system may be installed at one of Wipaire’s two locations in South St. Paul, Minnesota, or Leesburg, Florida. Installation is $1,300-$1,500 depending upon aircraft model. “Designing exclusive, innovative product improvements has always been at the heart of what we do,” commented Clint Clouatre, Vice President of Marketing and Sales for Wipaire, Inc. “The Laser Gear Advisory system continues that tradition by enhancing the safety of Wipline floats. It gives busy pilots intelligent alerts of incorrect gear settings instead of repetitive statements that become easy to ignore. Utilizing laser technology accurate over various terrains, our new Laser Gear Advisory decreases the chance of an accident due to improper gear position.” Wipaire’s Amphibian Gear Advisory system, well-known for its “Gear is up for water landing” and “Gear is down for runway landing” annunciations, has long been standard equipment on all amphibious Wipline floats. The Laser Gear Advisory system, in contrast, remains quiet when the landing gear and detected surface are in agreement. The laser becomes active at approximately 400 feet above ground level and compares the gear position with the detected landing surface.
