    Viking and PAL Aerospace Sign DHC-6 Twin Otter Aerial Firefighting System Contract

    For Immediate Release Viking and PAL Aerospace Sign DHC-6 Twin Otter Aerial Firefighting System Contract Calgary, Alberta and St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador - August 3, 2021 -- Viking Air Limited (“Viking”) and PAL Aerospace Canada are proud to announce the establishment of a contract to support the Twin Otter Fire Attack System. The agreement’s scope includes the design, manufacturing, installation, and certification of the Aerial Firefighting System for the Twin Otter DHC-6 300 and 400 aircraft. It is anticipated that the Aerial Firefighting System will be certified in 2022 and an international customer will receive the first converted aircraft. This undertaking is a progressive effort between Viking and PAL Aerospace to build additional capabilities for the already versatile DHC-6 Twin Otter Series 300 and 400 aircraft. The Aerial Firefighting System will allow the Twin Otter to transition effortlessly between global firefighting missions and its more traditional mission profiles, including transporting passengers and cargo. The airtanker-configured Twin Otter aircraft will help mitigate and fight wildfires with the ability to drop up to 700 US gallons of water or retardant in challenging environments. Phillip Garbutt, PAL Aerospace Senior Vice President of Global Support said, “PAL Aerospace is proud to partner with Viking on this exciting project that supports innovation, economic growth, and supply chains in Canada. As an established DHC-6 Twin Otter Operator, we know firsthand the capability and versatility of the aircraft and consider it a privilege to bring our comprehensive design, engineering and modification capabilities to bear in developing this new capability.” “We are happy to work with PAL Aerospace to provide our operators the ability to utilize our DHC-6 Twin Otter for specialized aerial firefighting missions,” said Benjamin Carson, Director of Customer Support Operations, Viking.

    Aerodynamic Performance Study of a Modern Blended- Wing-Body Aircraft Under Severe Weather Situations

Studies have shown remarkable performance improvements for the Blended-Wing-Body (BWB) over conventional subsonic transport. Also, aircraft during taking-off and landing might face strong crosswind and heavy rain, and these effects may be even more detrimental for BWB due to its peculiar configuration. In this study, a 3-D BWB is first constructed and numerically validated, and heavy rain effects are simulated mainly through two-phase flow approach. Three crosswinds considered are 10m/s, 20m/s and 30m/s, and the resulting BWB’s low speed stability derivative values under crosswind are different from typical transport, representing the intrinsic nature of BWB static unstable tendency. Also, the heavy rain influence to BWB is that lift decrease and drag increase at all angle of attack spectra, and liquid water content of 39g/m3 is more detrimental than 25g/m3, with maximum reduction of lift at 0 degree and maximum increase of drag at 6 degree angle of attack during taking-off and landing. The degradation in maximum lift to drag ratio could reach a stunning 10 to 15 percent at low angle of attack attitude.
