    DCCD Doc No. 28 28/4/09 (English only) INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON AIR LAW (Montréal, 20 April to 2 May 2009) CONVENTION ON COMPENSATION FOR DAMAGE CAUSED BY AIRCRAFT TO THIRD PARTIES AND CONVENTION ON COMPENSATION FOR DAMAGE TO THIRD PARTIES, RESULTING FROM ACTS OF UNLAWFUL INTERFERENCE INVOLVING AIRCRAFT (Presented by the Air Crash Victims Families Group) 1. INTRODUCTION – SUPPLEMENTAL AND OTHER COMPENSATIONS 1.1 The apocalyptic terrorist attack by the means of four hi-jacked planes committed against the World Trade Center in New York, NY , the Pentagon in Arlington, VA and the aborted flight ending in a crash in the rural area in Shankville, PA ON September 11th, 2001 is the only real time example that triggered this proposed Convention on Compensation for Damage to Third Parties from Acts of Unlawful Interference Involving Aircraft. 1.2 It is therefore important to look towards the post incident resolution of this tragedy in order to adequately and pro actively complete ONE new General Risk Convention (including compensation for ALL catastrophic damages) for the twenty first century. 2. DISCUSSION 2.1 Immediately after September 11th, 2001 – the Government and Congress met with all affected and interested parties resulting in the “Air Transportation Safety and System Stabilization Act” (Public Law 107-42-Sept. 22,2001). 2.2 This Law provided the basis for Rules and Regulations for: a) Airline Stabilization; b) Aviation Insurance; c) Tax Provisions; d) Victims Compensation; and e) Air Transportation Safety. DCCD Doc No. 28 - 2 - 2.3 The Airline Stabilization Act created the legislative vehicle needed to reimburse the air transport industry for their losses of income as a result of the flight interruption due to the 911 attack.

  • Teaching the Air Midwest Case: a Stakeholder Approach to Deliberative Technical Rhetoric
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATION, VOL. 47, NO. 4, DECEMBER 2004 233 Teaching the Air Midwest Case: A Stakeholder Approach to Deliberative Technical Rhetoric —MEREDITH W. ZOETEWEY AND JULIE STAGGERS Abstract—What constitutes a cause is a particularly important question for those who teach or study technical writing. This article describes a case that helps students look beyond the technical “causes” of a commuter airplane crash in order to address the complex web of policies, practices, actions, and events that contributed to the crash. Using an approach grounded in stakeholder theory and ethical theory, students use real documents ranging from news accounts to Federal Aviation Administration policies to National Transit Safety Board hearing exhibits to identify systemic problems that contributed to the disaster. Working from particular stakeholder perspectives, they work collaboratively to develop and argue for policy changes that will help prevent future tragedies. The abundance of real documents that drive this case make it an especially useful tool for engaging students in difficult-to-teach subject matter, including the role of writing in the failure of technical systems, deliberative and judicial rhetoric, stakeholder theory, visual rhetoric, and ethics. Index Terms—Aviation, case studies, decision making, education, ethics, policy making, rhetoric, risk communication, stakeholder theory. Sauer’s work raises this question: What constitutes a When technical systems fail, our first impulse cause? That is a particularly important question for is often to speculate about causes. In a world with those who teach, or study, technical writing. It is the round-the-clock news, whenever a space shuttle question at the heart of the Air Midwest case, which burns up on re-entry, a ferry slams into a pier, or we developed for our introductory technical writing an airplane falls from the sky, news people and classes in the fall of 2003.

  • In the Matter of the Application of the 38 NMB No
    NATIONAL MEDIATION BOARD WASHINGTON, DC 20572 (202) 692-5000 In the Matter of the Application of the 38 NMB No. 39 INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD CASE NO. R-7284 OF TEAMSTERS, AIRLINE (File No. CR-6995) DIVISION FINDINGS UPON alleging a representation dispute INVESTIGATION pursuant to Section 2, Ninth, of the Railway Labor Act, as April 7, 2011 amended involving employees of REPUBLIC AIRLINES/SHUTTLE AMERICA/CHAUTAUQUA AIRLINES/ FRONTIER AIRLINES/LYNX AVIATION AND THE FORMER MIDWEST AIRLINES This determination addresses the application filed pursuant to the Railway Labor Act (RLA)1 by the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Airline Division (IBT). The IBT requests the National Mediation Board (NMB or Board) to investigate whether Republic Airlines (RA), Shuttle America (Shuttle), Chautauqua Airlines (Chautauqua), Frontier Airlines (Frontier), and Lynx Aviation (Lynx) (collectively the Carriers) are operating as a single transportation system for the craft or class of Pilots. The current investigation establishes that RA, Shuttle, Chautauqua, Frontier and Lynx are operating as a single transportation system (Republic 1 45 U.S.C. §151, et. seq. - 138 - 38 NMB No. 39 Airlines et al./Frontier) for the craft or class of Pilots, and further, that Midwest Pilots are included in the single transportation system. PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND On July 27, 2009, Republic notified the Board of the pending acquisition of Midwest and stated: “The parent company of Midwest will be merged into Republic, with Republic as the surviving entity. Midwest will thus become a subsidiary of Republic, along with its three other airline subsidiaries, Chautauqua Airlines, Republic Airlines, and Shuttle America. The projected date of closing for the transaction is July 31, 2009.” On September 24, 2009, the Board received notice of the pending acquisition of Frontier and Lynx by Republic.
