Their guidance and wisdom kept me on track and in the right direction to accomplish all of my educational goals. I would first like to thank my advisor of five years, Dr. Richard O. Fanjoy. He successfully guided me through the master’s and PhD programs, always pushing me to do my best work and keeping me from trying to accomplish the impossible. His advice about life, career, and school helped me tremendously to stay focused on what was right for me. I would also like to thank the faculty thank my committee, Dr. Thomas Carney, Dr. Pat Boling, and Dr. Sarah Hubbard. Their knowledge and advice was, and is, always greatly appreciated. I also want to thank my parents, Roland and Cara Lee Spence, and my brother, Neil Spence, for the unwavering support. Finally, without my fiancée, Yoonyoung Kwak, I do not know how far I could have gone. Her critiques, discussions, and advice saved me on more than one occasion. I cannot wait to begin our marriage journey soon! iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Page LIST OF TABLES ............................................................................................................ vii LIST OF FIGURES ........................................................................................................... ix ABSTRACT ........................................................................................................................ x CHAPTER 1.

  • Notice of Adjustments to Service Obligations
    Served: May 12, 2020 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON, D.C. CONTINUATION OF CERTAIN AIR SERVICE PURSUANT TO PUBLIC LAW NO. 116-136 §§ 4005 AND 4114(b) Docket DOT-OST-2020-0037 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS TO SERVICE OBLIGATIONS Summary By this notice, the U.S. Department of Transportation (the Department) announces an opportunity for incremental adjustments to service obligations under Order 2020-4-2, issued April 7, 2020, in light of ongoing challenges faced by U.S. airlines due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) public health emergency. With this notice as the initial step, the Department will use a systematic process to allow covered carriers1 to reduce the number of points they must serve as a proportion of their total service obligation, subject to certain restrictions explained below.2 Covered carriers must submit prioritized lists of points to which they wish to suspend service no later than 5:00 PM (EDT), May 18, 2020. DOT will adjudicate these requests simultaneously and publish its tentative decisions for public comment before finalizing the point exemptions. As explained further below, every community that was served by a covered carrier prior to March 1, 2020, will continue to receive service from at least one covered carrier. The exemption process in Order 2020-4-2 will continue to be available to air carriers to address other facts and circumstances. Background On March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Recovery, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act) into law. Sections 4005 and 4114(b) of the CARES Act authorize the Secretary to require, “to the extent reasonable and practicable,” an air carrier receiving financial assistance under the Act to maintain scheduled air transportation service as the Secretary deems necessary to ensure services to any point served by that air carrier before March 1, 2020.

  • Runway Safety Report
    FAA Runway Safety Report Safety Runway FAA Runway Safety Report June 2008 June 2008 June Federal Aviation Administration 800 Independence Avenue SW Washington, DC 20591 OK-08-3966 www.faa.gov Message from the Administrator A successful flight — whether trans-oceanic in a commercial airliner or a short trip in a private airplane — begins and ends with safe ground operations. While within the purview and oversight of the Federal Aviation Administration, runway safety is at the same time the ongoing responsibility of pilots, air traffic controllers, and airport ground vehicle operators. Through training and education, heightened awareness, enhanced airport signage and markings, and dedicated technology, FAA is providing each of these constituencies with the tools required to significantly improve runway safety. The ultimate goal is to reduce the severity, number, and rate of runway incursions; this report details a number of accomplishments and encouraging trends toward that end. A glance at the Executive Summary provides an overview of runway incursion data as well as numerous initiatives either completed, underway or about to begin. Serious runway incursions, which involve a significant reduction in adequate separation between two aircraft and where the risk of a collision is considerable, are trending favorably. In fiscal year 2007, these types of incur- sions were down 23 percent from the previous year and at their lowest total during the past four years. Since 2001, serious runway incursions are down 55 percent. In August 2007, we met with more than 40 aviation leaders from airlines, airports, air traffic controller and pilot unions, and aerospace manufacturers under a “Call to Action” for Runway Safety.

  • FAA Annual Runway Safety Report 2010
    Air Traffic Organization Annual Runway Federal Aviation Administration 800 Independence Avenue, SW Safety Report 2010 Washington, DC 20591 Message from the Administrator Dear Colleague: When serious runway incursions drop by 50 percent over the previous year, you know you’re doing something right. The good news here is every corner of the aviation community is sharing the success. From the airlines to the business aviation community to the pilots, controllers, surface vehicle operators and the GA enthusiasts who just fly for pleasure, everyone has taken a step up. The numbers alone tell the story. With almost 53 million operations in FY 2009, we had 12 serious runway incursions, down from 25 the previous year; two serious incursions involved commercial aircraft. Those are encouraging numbers. When we issued a Call to Action for runway safety almost two years ago, we as a community recognized the need to do a better job of keeping things safe on the airport surface. Even though the number of mistakes is infinitesimally small, given the number of successful operations per day, we nevertheless need to take every opportunity to continue to enhance surface safety. As you’ll clearly see in the runway safety report, that’s what is happening. The emergence of a “just culture” between regulator and regulated has played a huge part. Because we have so few data points, we need for the people in the system to be able to say, “Here’s a problem” without fear of penalty. As a result, we’re learning about the soft spots, the places, and procedures that need to change.
