It is not the function of the Board to assign fault or determine civil or criminal liability. Aviation Occurrence Report Loss of Control on Go-around (Rejected Landing) Air Canada Canadair CL-600-2B19 C-FSKI Fredericton Airport, New Brunswick 16 December 1997 Report Number A97H0011 Synopsis Air Canada Flight 646, C-FSKI, departed Toronto-Lester B. Pearson International Airport, Ontario, at 2124 eastern standard time on a scheduled flight to Fredericton, New Brunswick. On arrival, the reported ceiling was 100 feet obscured, the visibility one-eighth of a mile in fog, and the runway visual range 1200 feet. The crew conducted a Category I instrument landing system approach to runway 15 and elected to land. On reaching about 35 feet, the captain assessed that the aircraft was not in a position to land safely and ordered the first officer, who was flying the aircraft, to go around. As the aircraft reached its go-around pitch attitude of about 10 degrees, the aircraft stalled aerodynamically, struck the runway, veered to the right and then travelled—at full power and uncontrolled—about 2100 feet from the first impact point, struck a large tree and came to rest. An evacuation was conducted; however, seven passengers were trapped in the aircraft until rescued. Of the 39 passengers and 3 crew members, 9 were seriously injured and the rest received minor or no injuries. The accident occurred at 2348 Atlantic standard time.

Guerrero and Lloyd D Corliss, Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, California October 1991 National Aeronautics and Space Administration Ames Research Center Moffett Field, Califorrlia94035 -1000 SUMMARY A simulation model was developed for piloted evaluations of a representative tilt-wing V/STOL (Vertical/Short Takeoff and Landing) aircraft. Using this model an initial tilt-wing simulation study was conducted in 1990 on the Ames Vertical Motion Simulator In the past, all tilt-wing aircraft have required a horizontal tail rotor or reaction jets to provide pitch control in hover and low speeds. To alleviate this need, devices such as monocyclic propellers and a geared flap have been proposed for providing control at low speed. The geared flap is the sub- ject of this study and it is compared to the conventional flap used in previous tilt-wing aircraft. Objectives of the study were to simulate a tilt-wing V/STOL aircraft, to evaluate and compare the control effectiveness and handling qualities of both a conventional (programmed flap) and the geared flap control configurations, and to determine the feasibility of eliminating the horizontal tail rotor or reaction jets of prior designs through the use of the geared flap control configuration.

Besides giving the airplanes a distinctive appear- ance, the winglets create more efficient flight characteristics in cruise and during takeoff and climbout, which translate into additional range with the same fuel and payload.

The winglets increase the spread of the vortices along the TE, creating more lift at the wingtips (figs. 2 and 3). The result is a reduction in induced drag (fig. 4). The maximum benefit of the induced drag reduction depends on the spanwise lift distribution on the wing. Theoretically, for a planar wing, induced drag is opti- mized with an elliptical lift distribution that minimizes the change in vorticity along the span. For the same amount of structural material, nonplanar wingtip 737-800 TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS devices can achieve a similar induced drag benefit as a planar span increase; however, new Boeing airplane designs Passengers focus on minimizing induced drag with 3-class configuration Not applicable The 737-800 commercial airplane wingspan influenced by additional 2-class configuration 162 is one of four 737s introduced BBJ TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS The Boeing Business Jet design benefits. 1-class configuration 189 in the late 1990s for short- to (BBJ) was launched in 1996 On derivative airplanes, performance Cargo 1,555 ft3 (44 m3) medium-range commercial air- Passengers Not applicable as a joint venture between can be improved by using wingtip Boeing and General Electric.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM). SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2020-23-13, which applies to all ATR – GIE Avions de Transport Régional Model ATR42-200, -300, and -320 airplanes. AD 2020-23-13 requires a one-time inspection for discrepancies of the wire bundles between the left- and right-hand angle of attack (AOA) probes and the crew alerting computer, and, depending on findings, applicable corrective actions. Since the FAA issued AD 2020-23-13, a wiring modification for the captain stick shaker has been developed, along with an update to the aircraft flight manual (AFM). This proposed AD would continue to require the actions in AD 2020-23-13. This proposed AD would also require, for certain airplanes, modifying the captain stick shaker wiring, and for all airplanes, revising the existing AFM and applicable corresponding operational procedures to incorporate procedures for the stick pusher/shaker, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is proposed for incorporation by reference. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by [INSERT DATE 45 DAYS AFTER DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER].

    User Manual ATOS C Version: 29.01.2002 English translation: 9 August 2002 by Heiner Biesel Please read before flying! Congratulations on your purchase, and welcome to the ATOS world! Your ATOS C is a high performance glider. To fully exploit its capabilities while remaining well within safe limits, you should become thoroughly familiar with the contents of this manual. If you have any questions or need support, do not hesitate to contact the A.I.R. Team. Your A.I.R. Team Version: 01/02 1 1. Transport • By car The carbon fiber D-tube can be damaged by point loading. For safe transport the glider should always be supported by a large padded area. A ladder with several padded steps is one possibility. If the D- tube is supported at only two places, these supports need to be padded at least 4 inches in length, and wide enough to support the full width of the glider. Anything less is likely to result in transport damage, which can seriously reduce the strength of the main spar and the entire D-tube. Do not tie down the glider too tightly, and use wide tubular of flat webbing to minimize point loading. If the glider is likely to get exposed to rain, and especially to salt water, a watertight cover bag is strongly recommended. If the ATOS C gets wet, dry it as quickly as possible to avoid staining the sail, or causing corrosion of the metal parts. Exposure to salt water should always be followed by a thorough rinse in sweet water.
