March 1985 Number 2 A spectacular view of the Baltimore, Maryland, area (front cover) and a larger view of the Baltimore-Washington, D.C. area (back cover) were taken by N A S A ’s Landsat-4 camera. Launched July 16, 1982, these “ aerial” views were taken in July and November of that year, respectively. In the Baltimore scene, urban area ap­ pears dark gray. Parks, cemeteries and hospital grounds within the confines of the urban area appear red, as does vegetation. The asphalt runways of Baltimore-Washing­ ton International Airport (BW I) appear dark (lower center). Major arterial transportation systems show up spectacularly. In this Landsat-4 Thematic Mapper view of the Baltimore-Washington, D.C. area (back cover), the dark blue areas are the dense inner city areas where significant ground cover is minimal. Suburban areas appear gray or pink due to the presence of lawns and trees. The Chesapeake Bay Bridge, just north­ east of Annapolis, is barely visible in this ■ 7 “ "“ WASHINGTON,O.C. /_ ..

  • Bankruptcy Tilts Playing Field Frank Boroch, CFA 212 272-6335 [email protected]
    Equity Research Airlines / Rated: Market Underweight September 15, 2005 Research Analyst(s): David Strine 212 272-7869 [email protected] Bankruptcy tilts playing field Frank Boroch, CFA 212 272-6335 [email protected] Key Points *** TWIN BANKRUPTCY FILINGS TILT PLAYING FIELD. NWAC and DAL filed for Chapter 11 protection yesterday, becoming the 20 and 21st airlines to do so since 2000. Now with 47% of industry capacity in bankruptcy, the playing field looks set to become even more lopsided pressuring non-bankrupt legacies to lower costs further and low cost carriers to reassess their shrinking CASM advantage. *** CAPACITY PULLBACK. Over the past 20 years, bankrupt carriers decreased capacity by 5-10% on avg in the year following their filing. If we assume DAL and NWAC shrink by 7.5% (the midpoint) in '06, our domestic industry ASM forecast goes from +2% y/y to flat, which could potentially be favorable for airline pricing (yields). *** NWAC AND DAL INTIMATE CAPACITY RESTRAINT. After their filing yesterday, NWAC's CEO indicated 4Q:05 capacity could decline 5-6% y/y, while Delta announced plans to accelerate its fleet simplification plan, removing four aircraft types by the end of 2006. *** BIGGEST BENEFICIARIES LIKELY TO BE LOW COST CARRIERS. NWAC and DAL account for roughly 26% of domestic capacity, which, if trimmed by 7.5% equates to a 2% pt reduction in industry capacity. We believe LCC-heavy routes are likely to see a disproportionate benefit from potential reductions at DAL and NWAC, with AAI, AWA, and JBLU in particular having an easier path for growth.

  • Kentucky Freight System
    2 KENTUCKY FREIGHT SYSTEM 2.1 MULTIMODAL FREIGHT SYSTEM An efficient, multimodal freight transportation network is essential to the economic well-being of Kentucky. All modes play a role when moving goods, and the choice between modes is frequently related to the location, type of commodity, price of shipment, and connections to other modes. A comparison of modes, as shown in Figure 2-1 illustrates the cargo carrying capacity by various modes. While modes may vary in terms of capacity, energy, safety, and environmental impacts, each mode serves an important role in the freight delivery system. They must work together to create a connected and resilient freight network. Figure 2-1: Comparison of Cargo Carrying Capacity by Mode Source: Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, Freight Modes Book, September 2015, http://transportation.ky.gov/Planning/Documents/2015%20Modes%20Book.pdf In 2015, KYTC was responsible for owning and maintaining nearly 28,000 miles of the Kentucky roadway system, which connects to railroads, ports, airports, and pipelines in the commonwealth. This connectivity plays an integral part in the supply chain; therefore, it is essential that KYTC invest in ongoing maintenance, operational improvements, and capacity adding projects to move freight efficiently and safely. Although KYTC does not have jurisdiction over other modes, the Cabinet acts as a partner and participant with public and private stakeholders to coordinate investment decisions. KYTC views Kentucky’s multimodal freight system discussed in the following chapters and sections is critical and vital KENTUCKY FREIGHT PLAN Page 2-1 Kentucky Freight System to improving the efficient movement of freight of importance to the economy of the State.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit. No. 93-8320 Summary Calendar. In the Matter of FAIRCHILD AIRCRAFT CORPORATION, Debtor. BUTLER AVIATION INTERNATIONAL, INC., Appellant-Cross-Appellee, v. Bettina M. WHYTE, Fiscal Agent, Appellee-Cross-Appellant. Nov. 17, 1993. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas. Before SMITH, WIENER, and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges. WIENER, Circuit Judge: This case involves the attempted recovery of funds paid over time by the debtor, Fairchild Aircraft Corporation ("Fairchild"), to Defendant-Appellant Butler Aviation International ("Butler") for fuel that Butler had provided to a customer of Fairchild, Air Kentucky Airlines ("Air Kentucky"). Plaintiff-Appellant Bettina M. Whyte was appointed Fiscal Agent to pursue avoidance actions on behalf of the unsecured creditors of Fairchild. In that capacity, she instituted this avoidance proceeding, arguing that Fairchild did not receive "reasonably equivalent value" under 11 U.S.C. § 548 for any of the fuel payments. The bankruptcy court concluded that Fairchild received reasonably equivalent value for those payments made while Air Kentucky was in service and flying, but not for those made after Air Kentucky ceased operations. Accordingly, the bankruptcy court entered judgment ordering repayment of that latter category of payments only. Butler appealed to the district court, which affirmed. Here, Butler continues its appeal from the bankruptcy court's judgment ordering it to pay over the post-operation payments; Whyte cross-appeals, seeking return of all fuel payments made by Fairchild to Butler, both before and after Air Kentucky ceased operations. Finding no reversible error, we affirm. I FACTS AND PROCEEDINGS This case arises out of Fairchild's ill-fated buyer-seller relationship with Air Kentucky.
