    Ground collision between a Boeing 767 and Boeing 737, Boston, April 9, 2001 Micro-summary: This Boeing 767 hit a Boeing 737 on the ground, in glare. Event Date: 2001-04-09 at 0800 EDT Investigative Body: National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), USA Investigative Body's Web Site: http://www.ntsb.gov/ Cautions: 1. Accident reports can be and sometimes are revised. Be sure to consult the investigative agency for the latest version before basing anything significant on content (e.g., thesis, research, etc). 2. Readers are advised that each report is a glimpse of events at specific points in time. While broad themes permeate the causal events leading up to crashes, and we can learn from those, the specific regulatory and technological environments can and do change. Your company's flight operations manual is the final authority as to the safe operation of your aircraft! 3. Reports may or may not represent reality. Many many non-scientific factors go into an investigation, including the magnitude of the event, the experience of the investigator, the political climate, relationship with the regulatory authority, technological and recovery capabilities, etc. It is recommended that the reader review all reports analytically. Even a "bad" report can be a very useful launching point for learning. 4. Contact us before reproducing or redistributing a report from this anthology. Individual countries have very differing views on copyright! We can advise you on the steps to follow. Aircraft Accident Reports on DVD, Copyright © 2006 by Flight Simulation

REPORT OF THE SPECIAL RECESS COMMITTEE ON AVIATION. PART I. Mabch 18. 1953. To the Honorable Senate and House of Representatives. The Special Joint Committee on Aviation, consisting of members of the Committee on Aeronautics, herewith submits its report. As first established in 1951 by Senate Order No. 614, there were three members of the Senate and seven mem- bers of the House of the Committee on Aeronautics to sit during the recess for the purpose of making an investiga- tion and study relative to certain matters pertaining to aeronautics and also to consider current documents Senate, No. 4 and so much of House, No. 1232 as pertains to the continued development of Logan Airport, including constructions of certain buildings and other necessary facilities thereon, and especially the advisability of the construction of a gasoline and oil distribution system at said airport. Senate, No. 4 was a petition of Michael LoPresti, establishing a Massachusetts Aeronautics Au- thority and transferring to it the power, duties and obligations of the Massachusetts Aeronautics Commis- sion and State Airport Management Board. Members appointed under this Order were: Senators Cutler, Hedges and LoPresti; Representatives Bradley, Enright, Bryan, Gorman, Barnes, Snow and Campbell. The underground gasoline distribution system as pro- posed in 1951 by the State Airport Management Board seemed the most important matter to be studied. It was therefore voted that a subcommittee view the new in- stallation of such a system at the airport in Pittsburgh, Pa.

    Advocates for Harvard ROTC . Telephone: (978) 443-9532 11 Munnings Drive Email: [email protected] Sudbury, MA 01776 23 march 2018 From: Captain Paul E. Mawn USN (Ret.) To: Advocates for Harvard ROTC Subject: World War I - Harvard alumni veterans Medal of Honor Legion d’Honneur Distinguished Service Order Distinguished Service Cross Navy Cross The President, in the name of Congress, awards the Medal of Honor to the individual who, while as an active member of the US Armed Forces distinguishes himself or herself conspicuously, at the risk of his or her life above and beyond the call of duty, by courage and intrepidity. The act or acts of heroism must have required a risk of life and the individual have displayed personal bravery or self-sacrifice so extraordinary as to set the individual apart from his or her comrades. The 2nd highest US military decorations for valor have a different name and date of origination by service. For the US Army, this award is called the Distinguished Service Cross and was established by the US congress in 1918. The equivalent award for the Navy and US Marine Corps is the Navy Cross, which was first awarded in 1917 and formally approved by the US congress in 1931 (note: the Navy Cross may also be awarded to deserving US Coast Guard personnel during a formal war when the USCG is operating as part of the USN). The Air Force Cross was established by the US congress in 1960 (note: previously deserving personnel in the US Army Aero Squadrons of the Signal Corps (WW I), US Army Air Corps (1920’s to 1947) or US Air Force (1947 to 1960) were awarded the Distinguished Service Cross).

  • Notice to Operators
    NOTICE TO OPERATORS Boston Logan International (BOS) Prior Permission (PPR) Requirements for General Aviation Operations Suspended Effective September 1, 2020 General aviation (GA) ramp capacity at Boston General Edward Lawrence Logan International Airport (BOS) was reduced due to major airside construction projects. A Prior Permission Required (PPR) reservation program went into effect October 2019 to allow Signature Flight Support to effectively manage the limited parking. As the result of the major reduction in air carrier and general aviation traffic brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic the PPR program is being suspended and the associated NOTAM is being cancelled effective September 1, 2020. Parking remains limited as impacts of construction projects on and in the vicinity of the GA ramp continue with completion expected in 2023. To aid in GA parking space management operators are encouraged to contact Signature Boston in advance of their intended operation, especially for aircraft planning to RON for more than one consecutive night. The suspension of the PPR program is based on future estimates for air traffic recovery, especially the slow return of international air carrier operations. Should traffic levels rise above a certain threshold prior to the construction projects being completed, the PPR program would likely need to be reinstated. The suspension of the PPR program is attributed to successful stakeholder collaboration over the course of the previous 11 months. Massport, Signature Flight Support, the Massachusetts Business Aviation Association (MBAA) and the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) and other entities have worked closely to protect the needs of the general aviation community and to facilitate uninterrupted operations at both Boston Logan and Laurence G.

  • Improved Sea Breeze Forecasting for Boston's
    IMPROVED SEA BREEZE FORECASTING FOR BOSTON’S GENERAL EDWARD LAWRENCE LOGAN INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT Jennifer Thorp Judd Gregg Meteorology Institute Plymouth State University Plymouth, NH Scott Reynolds NOAA National Weather Service Center Weather Service Unit Nashua, NH This study adapts the method of predicting sea-breeze events developed by Miller and Keim (2003) to Logan International Airport in Boston, Massachusetts (KBOS). A five-year dataset of hourly KBOS surface observations (2001-2005) was used to identify 565 days when the sea breeze occurred or was likely to occur at the airport. These days were classified into sea-breeze, marginal, or non-sea-breeze events. Sea-breeze events were further classified into fast and slow transitions, with a fast transition identified with a wind shift taking one hour or less, and a slow transition identified with a wind shift taking two hours or more. Morning United States surface analyses for each event were classified using the seven synoptic classes developed by Miller and Keim (2003), and statistics were developed to evaluate the distribution of synoptic classes amongst the different types of events and various seasons. Composite surface analyses of the different synoptic classes and types of events were then developed. There were significant differences between the composites of each event type within a synoptic class. The results of this study were then compared to those of Miller and Keim. The next stages of research will be to further examine the mesoscale pressure and isentropic gradients associated with all types of events and to investigate the effect of coastline shape upon the sea breeze.
