There were no applicable certification specifications for operational suitability data issued in accordance with point 21.A.16A, effective on the date of the Type Certificate application for the A330-200/-300; A340-200/-300; A340-500; A340-600. In accordance with Part 21, 21.A.17B (a), the operational suitability data certification basis needs to be defined for the A330/-340 aircraft Family Cabin Crew Operational Suitability Data, transferred from the “A330/-340 Family -OEB Cabin Crew Evaluation Report”. The purpose of the (J) OEB CC evaluations, as requested by Airbus, was to: determine whether the A340-600 is a variant of the A340-300(as per JAR-OPS 1.1030- Operation on more than one type or variant); determine whether the A330-200/-300; the A340-500; the A340-600 are variants of the A340-200/-300(as per JAR-OPS 1.1030- Operation on more than one type or variant), thus constituting the “A330/340 family”; provide recommendations to support the establishment by operators, of cabin crew differences training programs for variants (as per JAR-OPS 1.1010 – Conversion and differences training). NOTE: See also certification basis complement CCD-01 (published in this document), that comes in addition to the present SC A-01-CCD.

Readers are advised that each report is a glimpse of events at specific points in time. While broad themes permeate the causal events leading up to crashes, and we can learn from those, the specific regulatory and technological environments can and do change. Your company's flight operations manual is the final authority as to the safe operation of your aircraft! 3. Reports may or may not represent reality. Many many non-scientific factors go into an investigation, including the magnitude of the event, the experience of the investigator, the political climate, relationship with the regulatory authority, technological and recovery capabilities, etc. It is recommended that the reader review all reports analytically.

    INTERpilot – 2004 THROTTLES ONLY CONTROL (TOC) 10 Steps to a Survivable Landing Following Loss of Normal Flight Control Captains Terry Lutz, Air Line Pilots Association, International and Brian Greeves, Hong Kong Air Line Pilots' Association Captain Terry Lutz Captain Brian Greeves Few emergencies in commercial aviation are more terrifying to the flight crew than loss of normal flight control. The July 1989 United Airlines DC-10 accident in Sioux City, Iowa and the November 2003 missile attack on the DHL A-300 departing Baghdad are examples where the crew lost all hydraulically powered flight controls. In both cases, the flight crew regained flight path control using throttles only, and were able to bring the airplane to a less than precise touchdown at an airport. Modern aircraft are exceptionally well designed, numerous systems failures, including rapid particularly from the standpoint of reliability and decompression, the crew had to deal with large pitch redundancy in the flight control system.

  • Large Capacity Oblique All-Wing Transport Aircraft
    f Large Capacity Oblique All-Wing Transport Aircraft Thomas L. Galloway James A. Phillips Robert A. Kennelly, Jr. NASA Ames Research Center Moffett Field, CA Mr. Mark H. Waters Thermosciences Institute, ELORET Corp. Palo Alto, CA Transportation Beyond 2000: Engineering Design for the Future September 26-28, 1995 461 INTRODUCTION Dr. R. T. Jones first developed the theory for oblique wing aircraft in 1952, and in subsequent years numerous analytical and experimental projects conducted at NASA Ames and elsewhere have established that the Jones' oblique wing theory is correct. Until the late 1980's all proposed oblique wing configurations were wing/body aircraft with the wing mounted on a pivot. With the emerging requirement for commercial transports with very large payloads, 450 - 800 passengers, Jones proposed a supersonic oblique flying wing in 1988. For such an aircraft all payload, fuel, and systems are carded within the wing, and the wing is designed with a variable sweep to maintain a fixed subsonic normal Mach number. Engines and vertical tails are mounted on pivots supported from the primary structure of the wing. The oblique flying wing transport has come to be known as the Oblique All-Wing transport (OAW). Initial studies of the OAW were conducted by Van der Velden first at U.C. Berkeley(l) in 1989 and then at Stanford in collaboration with Kroo(2) in 1990. A final document summarizing this work is given in the thesis by Van der Velden(3). Many issues regarding the design were identified in these studies, among them the need for the OAW to be an unstable aircraft.

It was developed as a jet flight trainer for the United States Navy and United States Marine Corps. The Hawk had not originally been designed to perform carrier operations; numerous modifications were required, such as the extensive strengthening of the airframe to withstand the excessive forces imposed by the stresses involved in catapult launches and high sink-rate landings, both scenarios being routine in aircraft carrier operations.

Two suction surfaces were studied--aslotted aluminum glove concept and a woven stainless steel mesh porous glove concept. The laminar flow control glove and a dummy glove with a modified supercritical airfoil, ducting, modified wing leading and trailing edges, modified flaps and an LFC trim tab were applied to the wing after slot spacing suction parameters, and compression power were determined. The results of the study show that a laminar flow control glove can be applied to the wing of a jet transport with an appropriate suction system installed.

Ghosh Department of Aerospace Engineering Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur Module - 01 Lecture - 03 Introduction to airplane and its components (Refer Slide Time: 00:09) This is Sinus 912 aircraft which is a motor glider and its manufacturer is Pipistrel. So, we will today we will discuss about the structure and the instrument panel of this motor glider. This is an all made its construction is of composite material. This is the spinner of the aircraft having a 2 bladed propeller which is vireo. Then, it has a rotex 912 engine installed in it which is a 4 cylinder engine and it is a piston engine 4 stroke. Moving ahead we come to the wing. This is the starboard wing of the aircraft which is containing a pitot tube. This is the pitot tube which senses the pitot pressure and the static pressure from the static veins located just beneath it. It senses the dynamic pressure and gives to the pitot instruments like ASI, altimeter and vertical speed indicator. (Refer Slide Time: 00:59) Then, it has a wing span of 15 meters. For this wing contains a flaperon. Normally all aircrafts have either aileron and a flap, but in this varying motor glider the 2 control surfaces are combined in one and then that is of flaperon which consist of a flap and aileron that helps in rolling and as well as at the time of takeoff and landing. (Refer Slide Time: 01:24) So, this is the impeller section of the aircraft this is the tail section which consist of the vertical stabilizer, the horizontal stabilizer; attached to it is the moving part that is the elevator and the rudder.

  • The Wing Is the Principal Structural Unit of the Airplane. It Has Several Functions Beyond That of Providing Lift. for a Wing To
    1 WING The wing is the principal structural unit of the airplane. It has several functions beyond that of providing lift. For a wing to produce "lift", it must be oriented at a suitable angle of attack relative to the flow of air past the wing. In aerodynamics, angle of attack (AOA) specifies the angle between the chord line of the wing of a fixed-wing aircraft and the vector representing the relative motion between the aircraft and the atmosphere. On larger airplanes the engines are mounted in nacelles either attached to the wing or mounted in the wing. The nacelles also provide a housing for the landing gear when it is retracted. The space within the wing is usually used for fuel storage. The main geometrical features of a wing are its span; the area of the wing; its dihedral angle; its sweepback angle; and the wing section. Dihedral angle is the upward angle of an aircraft's wing, from the wing root to the wing tip. The amount of dihedral determines the amount of inherent stability along the roll axis. Although an increase of dihedral will increase inherent stability, it will also decrease lift, and increase drag. The design of the wing depends on the size, weight, and use of the airplane. Generally, there are two kinds of wing design: cantilever and semi-cantilever. The semi-cantilever usually has one, or perhaps two, supporting wires or struts attached to each wing and the fuselage. As far as the internal structure is concerned, there are three general types of conventional wings: monospar, two-spar, and multispar.
