  • Air Transport
    The History of Air Transport KOSTAS IATROU Dedicated to my wife Evgenia and my sons George and Yianni Copyright © 2020: Kostas Iatrou First Edition: July 2020 Published by: Hermes – Air Transport Organisation Graphic Design – Layout: Sophia Darviris Material (either in whole or in part) from this publication may not be published, photocopied, rewritten, transferred through any electronical or other means, without prior permission by the publisher. Preface ommercial aviation recently celebrated its first centennial. Over the more than 100 years since the first Ctake off, aviation has witnessed challenges and changes that have made it a critical component of mod- ern societies. Most importantly, air transport brings humans closer together, promoting peace and harmo- ny through connectivity and social exchange. A key role for Hermes Air Transport Organisation is to contribute to the development, progress and promo- tion of air transport at the global level. This would not be possible without knowing the history and evolu- tion of the industry. Once a luxury service, affordable to only a few, aviation has evolved to become accessible to billions of peo- ple. But how did this evolution occur? This book provides an updated timeline of the key moments of air transport. It is based on the first aviation history book Hermes published in 2014 in partnership with ICAO, ACI, CANSO & IATA. I would like to express my appreciation to Professor Martin Dresner, Chair of the Hermes Report Committee, for his important role in editing the contents of the book. I would also like to thank Hermes members and partners who have helped to make Hermes a key organisa- tion in the air transport field.

  • Royal Jordanian to Celebrate 53Rd Anniversary
    50SKYSHADESImage not found or type unknown- aviation news ROYAL JORDANIAN TO CELEBRATE 53RD ANNIVERSARY News / Airlines Image not found or type unknown December 15 marks Royal Jordanian Airlines' 53rd anniversary. © 2015-2021 50SKYSHADES.COM — Reproduction, copying, or redistribution for commercial purposes is prohibited. 1 In 1963, the company launched its operations as the national carrier of Jordan and has since been an ambassador of goodwill and friendship to other cultures, and a bridge that facilitates tourism and trade with the world. RJ has been receiving the Hashemite support since its establishment. His Majesty King Hussein's constant backing played a key role in the progress witnessed by the airline and helped it boost its competitiveness at regional and international levels. RJ President/CEO Captain Suleiman Obeidat expressed the airline’s appreciation for the care the Jordanian government gives it and its keenness to maintain RJ as Jordan's carrier for its contribution to the national economy and for its support for tourism, culture and the society at large for 53 years now. He stressed the airline’s determination to take a number of measures that aim at improving its overall performance and increase its efficiency and productivity, eventually leading to profitability, which will help the company develop and overcome all challenges. Obeidat said that RJ introduced five 787s into the fleet at the end of 2014 and another one last November; it will also introduce a seventh aircraft at the beginning of 2017, as a part of the strategic plan to modernize the long-haul fleet. The airline fleet also has modern Airbus and Embraer aircraft.

It’s absolutely bursting at the seams with competitions, records and a bumper Club Zone. It’s also bursting due to remembering two very special people – Dare Wilson and Tim Mace. I really could fi ll the entire Mag with memories of just these two individuals. Dare Wilson was the second Chairman of the BPA and he started this very magazine back in 1964. Although we have focused on his life within parachuting, he also had signifi cant military achievements. Tim Mace was a test pilot and cosmonaut who competed in every single skydiving discipline at World level – what a legend. I’m really looking forward to Skydive the Expo in Nottingham on January 24 2015. It’s for absolutely everyone, whether you’ve been jumping for decades or have only just started (or haven’t yet started!). I still remember my fi rst AGM, as it was then called – Rick ‘Oracle’ Boardman made me go, and I’m very glad he did!

  • The Flight of the Accountant: a Romance of Air and Credit
    The Flight of The Accountant: a Romance of Air and Credit by Peter Armstrong (BSc Aeronautical Engineering) Contact Details Professor Peter Armstrong The Management Centre University of Leicester LE1 7RH e-mail [email protected] Abstract 2 Introduction When the first flight of the Aviation Traders Accountant became imminent we were very pleased to be able to go along to Southend Airport and take part in the occasion, for such it certainly was with many of the company’s workpeople out on the airfield to see their very first design take the air. Indeed a number of these found convenient extempore aeronautical grandstands on the dozens of ex- R.A.F. Prentices dotted about the airfield prior to their refurbishing as civil aeroplanes. Although the weather was unsettled, the plans went ahead smoothly and after the chief test pilot, Mr L.P. Stuart-Smith and the chief of flight tests, Mr D. Turner B.Sc. (Hons), had climbed aboard, the two Rolls-Royce Darts were started up with a shrill whine and the square-tipped Rotol propellers bit the air purposefully. The Accountant then taxied sedately to the end of the runway and turned into the wind, tension in the watching crowd mounting awhile. For several long moments the plump, silver partridge sat glistening and tranquil before the engines were opened up with a roar and the wheel brakes released.

Combined the series Pardon Papers and Restorations of Citizenship because the latter, especially in later years, contained a large proportion of pardons. The two series were split at 1910 but a later addition overlapped from 1892 to 1909 and these records were left in their respective boxes but listed chronologically in the finding aid.
