  • A Conceptual Design of a Short Takeoff and Landing Regional Jet Airliner
    A Conceptual Design of a Short Takeoff and Landing Regional Jet Airliner Andrew S. Hahn 1 NASA Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA, 23681 Most jet airliner conceptual designs adhere to conventional takeoff and landing performance. Given this predominance, takeoff and landing performance has not been critical, since it has not been an active constraint in the design. Given that the demand for air travel is projected to increase dramatically, there is interest in operational concepts, such as Metroplex operations that seek to unload the major hub airports by using underutilized surrounding regional airports, as well as using underutilized runways at the major hub airports. Both of these operations require shorter takeoff and landing performance than is currently available for airliners of approximately 100-passenger capacity. This study examines the issues of modeling performance in this now critical flight regime as well as the impact of progressively reducing takeoff and landing field length requirements on the aircraft’s characteristics. Nomenclature CTOL = conventional takeoff and landing FAA = Federal Aviation Administration FAR = Federal Aviation Regulation RJ = regional jet STOL = short takeoff and landing UCD = three-dimensional Weissinger lifting line aerodynamics program I. Introduction EMAND for air travel over the next fifty to D seventy-five years has been projected to be as high as three times that of today. Given that the major airport hubs are already congested, and that the ability to increase capacity at these airports by building more full- size runways is limited, unconventional solutions are being considered to accommodate the projected increased demand. Two possible solutions being considered are: Metroplex operations, and using existing underutilized runways at the major hub airports.

  • Technological Innovation in the Airline Industry: the Impact of Regional Jets
    Technological Innovation in the Airline Industry: The Impact of Regional Jets by Jan K. Brueckner Department of Economics University of California, Irvine 3151 Social Science Plaza Irvine, CA 92697 e-mail: [email protected] and Vivek Pai Department of Economics University of California, Irvine 3151 Social Science Plaza Irvine, CA 92697 e-mail: [email protected] February 2007 Abstract This paper explores the impact of the regional jet (RJ), an important new technological inno- vation in the airline industry, on service patterns and service quality. The evidence shows that RJs were used to provide service on a large number of new hub-and-spoke (HS) and point-to- point (PP) routes. In addition, they replaced discontinued jet and turboprop service on many HS routes, as well as supplementing continuing jet service on such routes. When replace- ment or supplementation by RJs occurred, passengers benefited from better service quality via higher flight frequencies. The paper’s theoretical analysis predicts that the frequency ad- vantage of RJs over jets, a consequence of their small size, should have led to the emergence of PP service in thin markets where such service was previously uneconomical. However, the evidence contradicts this prediction, showing that markets attracting new PP service by RJs had demographic characteristics similar to those of markets that already had jet PP service or attracted it after 1996. Technological Innovation in the Airline Industry: The Impact of Regional Jets by Jan K. Brueckner and Vivek Pai 1. Introduction While the airline industry has experienced a number of significant institutional innovations over the years, including the adoption of hub-and-spoke networks and frequent flier programs and the use of yield management techniques, true technological innovations have been less fre- quent.

  • Aviation Activity Forecasts
    2 Aviation Activity Forecasts INTRODUCTION The Charles M. Schulz–Sonoma County Airport (STS) is one of six public use airports in Sonoma County. It is the only commercial service airport1 between the San Francisco Bay Area to the south, Sacramento to the east and Arcata-Eureka to the north. The Airport’s primary service area has a population of over 1 million people2 and includes Sonoma, Lake, and Mendocino counties, and parts of Marin and Napa counties. Airport Role The Sonoma County Airport, as the region’s principal Airport, serves many roles, including providing facilities for scheduled commuter and air carrier airline services. The California Aviation System Plan (CASP) designates the Airport as a Primary Commercial Service Non-Hub Airport. There are no Primary Commercial Service Hub airports in the region. The closest Primary Commercial Service Hub airports are the San Francisco, Oakland, and San Jose International Airports. The Sacramento International Airport is slightly more distant, but at times it can be more convenient for highway travel. The Sonoma County Airport also serves a growing population of general aviation (GA) activities including corporate and business flying. For this reason, the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS) currently classifies the Airport as a General Aviation facility, but in the future the Airport is expected to be reclassified as a Commercial Service Non-Primary Airport. A strong potential exists for additional scheduled airline and commuter air carrier service, particularly in the form of new, quiet technology jet aircraft with up to 135 passenger seats.3 The Airport also serves as a base of operations for local pilots, a place to conduct business, and a point of emergency access for the region.

  • Prior Compliance List of Aircraft Operators Specifying the Administering Member State for Each Aircraft Operator – June 2014
    Prior compliance list of aircraft operators specifying the administering Member State for each aircraft operator – June 2014 Inclusion in the prior compliance list allows aircraft operators to know which Member State will most likely be attributed to them as their administering Member State so they can get in contact with the competent authority of that Member State to discuss the requirements and the next steps. Due to a number of reasons, and especially because a number of aircraft operators use services of management companies, some of those operators have not been identified in the latest update of the EEA- wide list of aircraft operators adopted on 5 February 2014. The present version of the prior compliance list includes those aircraft operators, which have submitted their fleet lists between December 2013 and January 2014. BELGIUM CRCO Identification no.

  • Industrial Policy and Trade Management in the Commercial Aircraft Industry.*
    Industrial Policy and Trade Management in the Commercial Aircraft Industry.* Laura D'Andrea Tyson and Pei-Hsiung Chin *This chapter is based on a larger study included in the forthcoming book Who's Bashing Whom: Trade Conflict in High-Technology Industries to be published by the Institute for International Economics. The study was co-authored with Pei-Hsiung Chin, a PhD student in economics at the University of California, Berkeley. 1 I. Historical Decisions in a Strategic Industry "Judged against almost any criterion of performance--growth in output, exports, productivity, or innovation--the civilian aircraft industry must be considered a star performer in the [postwar] U.S. economy."1 The industry stands out as the country's largest exporter, running a net surplus of $35 billion between 1985 and 1989. American producers account for almost 80% of the world's commercial aircraft fleet (excluding the former USSR). More than any other, the commercial aircraft industry is a symbol of America's technological and market dominance. But today American producers face two critical challenges: an internal challenge resulting from cutbacks in defense procurement and indirect military subsidies; and an external challenge resulting from the growing competitive strength of Airbus. Continued American success depends on how American companies and the American government respond to these two challenges. Airbus is a government-backed consortium of companies from France, Britain, Germany, and Spain.2 After two decades of massive government support, Airbus has developed a family of aircraft, capturing about one-third of the world market for large commercial jets in 1991, up sharply from its 14% share in 1981.
