For the first part of the flight, the first officerwas the handling pilot. However, the forecast weather at Manchesterindicated that Low Visibility Procedures (LVP) would be requiredand, in accordance with company procedures, this would requirethe commander in the left seat to be the handling pilot. Therefore,towards the end of the cruise, the commander took over the handlingduties and the first officer assumed the normal non-handling dutiesincluding the radio monitoring and response. Prior to flight,the commander had confirmed the serviceability of the aircraftand noted that there were no 'Carried Forward Defects' in theTechnical Log; additionally, he had also confirmed that both thefirst officer and himself were qualified to carry out the expectedLVP approach. Throughout the flight, the aircraft was fully serviceable. Before descent, the crew obtained the airport weather informationand the commander briefed for the expected approach to Runway24 at Manchester.

  • A Fond Farewell to Ve Fantastic Eets
    NEWS RELEASE A fond farewell to ve fantastic eets 4/30/2020 Last month, American Airlines announced plans to accelerate the retirement of some older, less fuel-ecient aircraft from its eet sooner than originally planned. As ying schedules and aircraft needs are ne-tuned during this period of record low demand, American will take the unique step of retiring a total of ve aircraft types. American has ocially retired the Embraer E190 and Boeing 767 eets, which were originally scheduled to retire by the end of 2020. The airline has also accelerated the retirement of its Boeing 757s and Airbus A330-300s. Additionally, American is retiring 19 Bombardier CRJ200 aircraft operated by PSA Airlines. These changes remove operating complexity and will bring forward cost savings and eciencies associated with operating fewer aircraft types. It will also help American focus on ying more advanced aircraft as we continue receiving new deliveries of the Airbus A321neo and the Boeing 737 MAX and 787 family. American’s narrowbody eet also becomes more simplied with just two cockpit types – the Airbus A320 and the Boeing 737 families. This benets American’s operational performance through training eciency and streamlined maintenance. American continues to evaluate its schedule and remains committed to caring for customers on life’s journey. These changes will help American continue to provide a reliable travel experience around the world, even during these uncertain times. Here’s a snapshot of the aircraft exiting American’s eet: Airbus A330-300 — Blue Sky News/Pittsburgh International AirportAirbus A330-300 1 Joined the US Airways eet in 2000 prior to joining American’s eet in 2013.

  • ICCT Aircraft Efficiency Design Public Draft
    TRENDS IN AIRCRAFT EFFICIENCY AND DESIGN PARAMETERS Mazyar Zeinali, Ph.D. Daniel Rutherford, Ph.D. International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) ABSTRACT Developing an aircraft CO2 candidate metric and subsequent compliance assessment requires an understanding of practices and trends in aircraft design. Historically, fuel burn has been an important consideration for airlines, and manufacturers have responded by developing technologies to improve the efficiency of new aircraft designs. However, market forces also demand improvements in aircraft performance beyond reduced fuel burn. As a consequence, some portion of efficiency gained through improved technology has been devoted to increasing other aircraft design parameters such as range, maximum payload, and speed rather than to reducing emissions on a constant mission. In this paper, we discuss some initial ICCT work on sales‐weighted historical trends in new aircraft design attributes and their influence on aircraft efficiency, using design range as a first area of inquiry. We show that aircraft design parameters that influence fuel efficiency have changed over time, both in aggregate and for specific replacement designs, and therefore need to be taken into account when developing a CO2 certification requirement and stringency scenarios for further consideration. We also present evidence that commercial aircraft are not typically operated near their maximum performance points (i.e. design range and max payload), and therefore setting a CO2 certification requirement and standard at those points may overestimate improvements in future designs. 1. INTRODUCTION Developing an aircraft CO2 candidate metric and stringency scenarios will require knowledge and understanding of a complex system. Proper design choices will not only result in a policy that underscores environmental performance accurately, but also one that minimizes costs, undesirable impacts on competitiveness, and potential standard gaming.

    Risk to Ozone and ozone-derived oxidation products on commercial aircraft Clifford P. Weisela Charles J. Weschlera,b Kris Mohana Jack Spenglerc Jose Vallarinoc William W Nazaroffc aEnvironmental & Occupational Health Sciences Institute, Rutgers University, NJ bInternational Centre for Indoor Environment and Energy,Tech Inst Denmark cHarvard School of Public Health, Boston, MA dDepartment of Civil and Environmental Engineering, UC, Berkeley, CA Background • At cruise altitude (10000 to 11000 m), ozone levels outside an aircraft are high – typically 200 to 800 ppb • Atmospheric conditions, such as folds in the tropopause, can result in an influx of stratospheric air into the lower atmosphere. Thus even lower flying aircraft can encounter high ozone levels Background • In the 1960s high ozone levels Dr. David Bates placed rubber bands (specially produced without antioxidants) in planes and observed that they cracked in an analogous fashion to a similar set exposed to ozone on the ground. At the same time toxicological symptom associated with ozone was observed occurring in flight attendants • To reduce ozone on planes that cruise at high altitude most wide-body aircraft have ozone filters to remove ~85% of the ozone from the ventilation air • However, only ~ 1/2 narrow-body aircraft remove ozone from the ventilation air Background • In 1980 FAA set an ozone standard in the airplane cabin of 100ppb average for flights exceeded 3 hours and 250ppb maximum – sea level equivalent.

  • Aircraft Design Was Modeled More Closely After It
    Aircraft Final Project GD3-200 Prepared by: Group 3 Tian Chen. Quoc Tran . Oge Onuoha. Tony Haughton. Jean-Etienne Dongmo. Introduction The GD3-200 is a twin engine, new technology jet airplane designed for low fuel burn and short-to-medium range operations. This airplane uses new aerodynamics, advanced composite materials, structures, and systems to fill market requirement that cannot be efficiently provided by existing equipment or derivatives. The GD3-200 will provide airlines with unmatched fuel efficiency. The airplane will use 20 percent less fuel for comparable missions than any other airplane in its class. The key to this exceptional performance lies in the use of advanced composite materials for the majority of the airplane’s fuselage and wing structure. GD3 has also enlisted General Electric to develop engines for the new airplane. The GD3-200 is a highly fuel efficient low-noise airplane powered by General Electric new GEnx CF6-6 engines. These 9.5 to 1 high-bypass-ratio engines are reliable and easy to maintain. Using GEnx derived technology means these engines bring an average 15 percent improvement in specific fuel consumption over all other engines in its class. In the passenger configuration, the GD3-200 can typically carry 186 passengers (200 including crew) in a six-abreast, mixed class configuration over a 3000 mile range with full load. The GD3-200 can be equipped for Extended Range Operations (EROPS) to allow extended over-water operations. Changes include a backup hydraulic motor-generator set and an auxiliary fan for equipment cooling. Mission Requirement Payload: -200 passengers/crew at 200 lb each (includes baggage) 40000lb -5000 lb Cruise: 0.8 Mach at 33000 ft Cruise Range: 3000 miles Cruise Altitude: 33,000 ft Loiter: 30 minutes at 0.8 m Mach at 33000 ft Climb: Initial climb to cruise altitude starting at maximum takeoff weight Take-off distance: 5000 to 6000 ft with 50 ft clearance at sea level and standard conditions at maximum takeoff weight Power plant: more than 1; high-by-pass turbofan; choose from existing ones.

Coddington The Boeing 727-200 and 757-200 are both narrowbody aircraft designed for short- to medium-range flights carrying 164 to 214 passengers. Until recently, when overtaken by the Boeing 737, the 727-200 program was the most successful aircraft program in history. The 727 airplane has carried 2.3 billion passengers, equivalent to half the world's population (Sterling, 1992). More than half of all 727s sold were advanced 200s and as late as 1990 an incredible 50% of all U.S. passenger traffic had flown on 727-200s since the advanced model was launched in 1971.
