Aviation Activity Forecasts
SOUTHWEST WASHINGTON REGIONAL AIRPORT AIRPORT MASTER PLAN Chapter 3 – Aviation Activity Forecasts The overall goal of aviation activity forecasting is to provide reasonable projections of future activity that can be translated into specific airport facility needs anticipated during the next twenty years and beyond. The first draft of this chapter was prepared in January 2018. Following FAA review, several revisions have been made, including updated based aircraft and aircraft operations forecasts. The original forecasts are maintained as originally presented for reference. Overview and Purpose This chapter provides updated aviation activity forecasts for Southwest Washington Regional Airport (KLS) for the twenty-year master plan horizon (2017-2037). The most recent Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved aviation activity forecasts for KLS were developed for the 2007-2027 planning period in the 2011 Airport Master Plan update. The forecasts presented in this chapter are consistent with the current and historic role of KLS as a regional general aviation airport, capable of accommodating a wide range of activity, including business class turboprops and jets. The well-documented shortage of public use airports in Southwest Washington with comparable capabilities, highlights the importance of recognizing the regional role of KLS in its current and long term planning. CHAPTER 3 - AVIATION ACTIVITY FORECASTS | DECEMBER 2020 | PAGE 3-1 SOUTHWEST WASHINGTON REGIONAL AIRPORT AIRPORT MASTER PLAN The forecasts of activity are unconstrained and assume the City of Kelso will be able to make the facility improvements necessary to accommodate the anticipated demand, unless specifically noted. The City of Kelso will consider if any unconstrained demand will not or cannot be reasonably met through the evaluation of airport development alternatives later in the master plan. -

It may be many miles from my home shores and the words may have been spoken by an American but they rang somewhat true to the situation at home where the new and developing National Police Air Service is still finding its feet. I was sitting in on the Unit Managers Course when the instructor, a greatly respected man who earned his respect by running a large and successful air operation, reminded his stu- dents of their purpose in life. “If the cops on the street are not screaming for you to come in the expectation of getting [air support] help, the operation is flawed and should be considered a failure” Bryn Elliott LAW ENFORCEMENT BRAZIL PARA: Emergency services aviation in Brazil has reportedly fallen on hard times. A few years ago the sector had in place a major forward plan that encompassed most of Brazil’s States and most of the airborne service provision and was expected to see growth in re- sources and manpower controlled within a number of complex governing groups [DFNSP, CAVSEG, CONAV, AEAP, SENASP] but when President Rousseff took power in 2011 she swept them away leaving a vacuum. -
ANNOUNCEMENT of SPIRIT WINNING the CONTRACT for AIRBUS SPOILER PROJECT for and GIVING WIDER ECONOMY SPEECH Page | 1 BRIEFING FO
ANNOUNCEMENT OF SPIRIT WINNING THE CONTRACT FOR AIRBUS SPOILER PROJECT FOR AND GIVING WIDER ECONOMY SPEECH BRIEFING FOR THE FIRST MINISTER ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE A320 SPOILER PROJECT FOR SPIRIT AEROSYSTEMS AND GIVING WIDER ECONOMY SPEECH 31 August 2017 Key Delighted that Spirit Aerospace have won this important contract, messages boosting the Ayrshire economy and bringing in a great achievement for Scotland’s aerospace sector. Pleased that this important contract will create over 100 jobs mostly high-value as the project grows. Significant first step for Spirit into composite manufacturing which will establish a world class manufacturing platform, involving state of the art automation and robotics. Reflects positively on the strengths and diversity of our manufacturing base and the huge opportunities that aerospace presents. New innovative manufacturing processes for composite materials create exciting new supply chain opportunities. Funding of £2.1m for R&D and Training support to Spirit from Scottish Enterprise demonstrates how support can help to accelerate R&D to drive up levels of innovation in Scotland. What You will be announcing the contract awarded to Spirit by Airbus for the design of the new composite spoiler component and the manufacturing work package for the A320 aircraft. You will be giving a speech on ‘Scotland's economy - turning challenges into opportunities’. Why To announce that Spirit AeroSystems has secured a contract with Airbus. To give a wider economy speech in the run up to Programme for Government. Who -
Comparison of Helicopter Turboshaft Engines
Comparison of Helicopter Turboshaft Engines John Schenderlein1, and Tyler Clayton2 University of Colorado, Boulder, CO, 80304 Although they garnish less attention than their flashy jet cousins, turboshaft engines hold a specialized niche in the aviation industry. Built to be compact, efficient, and powerful, turboshafts have made modern helicopters and the feats they accomplish possible. First implemented in the 1950s, turboshaft geometry has gone largely unchanged, but advances in materials and axial flow technology have continued to drive higher power and efficiency from today's turboshafts. Similarly to the turbojet and fan industry, there are only a handful of big players in the market. The usual suspects - Pratt & Whitney, General Electric, and Rolls-Royce - have taken over most of the industry, but lesser known companies like Lycoming and Turbomeca still hold a footing in the Turboshaft world. Nomenclature shp = Shaft Horsepower SFC = Specific Fuel Consumption FPT = Free Power Turbine HPT = High Power Turbine Introduction & Background Turboshaft engines are very similar to a turboprop engine; in fact many turboshaft engines were created by modifying existing turboprop engines to fit the needs of the rotorcraft they propel. The most common use of turboshaft engines is in scenarios where high power and reliability are required within a small envelope of requirements for size and weight. Most helicopter, marine, and auxiliary power units applications take advantage of turboshaft configurations. In fact, the turboshaft plays a workhorse role in the aviation industry as much as it is does for industrial power generation. While conventional turbine jet propulsion is achieved through thrust generated by a hot and fast exhaust stream, turboshaft engines creates shaft power that drives one or more rotors on the vehicle. -

Remote ID NPRM Maps out UAS Airspace Integration Plans by Charles Alcock

Joby says it will have the piloted S4 flying as part of the Uber Air air taxi network in early adopter cities before the end of 2023, but it will surely take far longer to get clearance for autonomous eVTOL operations.
