    Aircraft Pilot and Passenger Protection Act 3 O.S. § 120.1 – 120.14 SECTION 120.1 A. This act shall be known and may be cited as the “Aircraft Pilot and Passenger Protection Act”. B. It is the intent of this act to: 1. Regulate obstructions to air navigation that have the potential of endangering the lives and property of aircraft pilots and passengers and those that live or work in the vicinity of public-use airports; that may affect existing and future instrument approaches to a public-use airport; and that may reduce the size of areas available for the landing, takeoff and maneuvering of aircraft thus impairing the utility of a public-use airport and the public investment therein; 2. Regulate the use of land in close proximity to a public-use airport to ensure compatibility with aircraft operations; and 3. Provide specific powers and duties to the Oklahoma Aeronautics Commission in the interest of the health, safety and welfare of the public so that the state may properly fulfill its duty to ensure that land use around a public-use airport is compatible with normal airport operations including the landing and takeoff of aircraft. C. All heights or surfaces set forth in this act are from the standards set forth in Subpart C of Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 77. D. Depending upon the type of survey used, an adjustment will be made in accordance with Federal Aviation Administration standards to the horizontal and vertical measurements of the proposed structure as follows: Survey Horizontal Survey Vertical Type Adjustment Type Adjustment 1 +20 ft (6 m) A +3 ft (1 m) 2 +50 ft (15 m) B +10 ft (3 m) 3 +100 ft (30 m) C +20 ft (6 m) 4 +250 ft (75 m) D +50 ft (15 m) 5 +500 ft (150 m) E +125 ft (38 m) If the survey type (horizontal and vertical) is not certified by a licensed engineer or a licensed surveyor, a horizontal adjustment of plus or minus two hundred fifty (250) feet and a vertical adjustment of fifty (50) feet will be applied to the structure measurements.

Slashes, Dashes, Points, and Squares: The development of Musical Notation Slashes, Dashes, Points, and Squares: The Development of Musical Notation Music has been around for a long time; in almost every culture around the world we find evidence of music. Music throughout history started as mostly vocal music, it was transmitted orally with no written notation. During the early ninth and tenth century the written tradition started to be seen and developed. This marked the beginnings of music notation. Music notation has gone through many stages of development from neumes, square notes, and four-line staff, to modern notation. Although modern notation works very well, it is not necessarily superior to methods used in the Renaissance and Medieval periods. In Western music neumes are the name given to the first type of notation used.

  • Easy Access Rules for Standardised European Rules of the Air (SERA)
    Easy Access Rules for Standardised European Rules of the Air (SERA) EASA eRules: aviation rules for the 21st century Rules and regulations are the core of the European Union civil aviation system. The aim of the EASA eRules project is to make them accessible in an efficient and reliable way to stakeholders. EASA eRules will be a comprehensive, single system for the drafting, sharing and storing of rules. It will be the single source for all aviation safety rules applicable to European airspace users. It will offer easy (online) access to all rules and regulations as well as new and innovative applications such as rulemaking process automation, stakeholder consultation, cross-referencing, and comparison with ICAO and third countries’ standards. To achieve these ambitious objectives, the EASA eRules project is structured in ten modules to cover all aviation rules and innovative functionalities. The EASA eRules system is developed and implemented in close cooperation with Member States and aviation industry to ensure that all its capabilities are relevant and effective. Published December 20201 1 The published date represents the date when the consolidated version of the document was generated. Powered by EASA eRules Page 2 of 213| Dec 2020 Easy Access Rules for Standardised European Rules Disclaimer of the Air (SERA) DISCLAIMER This version is issued by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in order to provide its stakeholders with an updated and easy-to-read publication.
