Lyngby Denmark http://www.bvg.dtu.dk 2001 DISCLAIMER Portions of this document may be illegible in electronic image products. Images are produced from the best available original document Report BYG DTU R-021 2001 ISSN 1601-2917 ISBN 87-7877-076-9 Executive summary This summary describes the results of a Ph.D. study that was carried out in the Energy Planning Group, Department for Civil Engineering, Technical University of Denmark, in a three-year period starting in August 1998 and ending in September 2001. The project was funded by a research grant from the Danish Energy Research Programme. The overall aim of this project is to investigate the linkages between energy use, life style and environmental impact. As a case of study, this report investigates the future possibilities for reducing the growth in greenhouse gas emissions from commercial civil air transport, that is passenger air travel and airfreight. The reason for this choice of focus is that we found that commercial civil air transport may become a relatively large energy consumer and greenhouse gas emitter in the future. For example, according to different scenarios presented by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), commercial civil air transport's fuel burn may grow by between 0,8 percent a factor of 1,6 and 16 between 1990 and 2050. The actual growth in fuel consumption will depend on the future growth in airborne passenger travel and freight and the improvement rate for the specific fuel efficiency.

    Bob's Card Models www.bobscardmodels.altervista.org and www.zealot.com [Resources] Fairchild C-26D 1:72 The Fairchild Swearingen Metroliner or the Fairchild Aerospace Metro is a 19-seat, pressurised, twin turboprop airliner first produced by Swearingen Aircraft and later by Fairchild at a plant in San Antonio, Texas. The C-26D is the Navy's designation for the C-26B (military version of the Fairchild Metro 23/SA227DC). The Metro III has its roots in the Swearingen Merlin, a turboprop eight-seat executive aircraft that first flew in 1965. General characteristics Crew: 2 Capacity: 22/14 passengers Length: 42 ft 2 in (12.85 m) Wingspan: 46 ft 3 in (14.01 m) Height: 16.83 ft (5.13 m) Max takeoff weight: 14,000 lb (6,400 kg Fuel: 625 gal (2,370 L)) Powerplant: 2× Allied Signal Garrett TPE-331-IIUG-601G turboprops, 1,100 hp (820 kW) each Performance Maximum speed: 248 knots (285 mph, 460 km/h) Range: 2,025 nm (2,331 mi, 3,750 km) Service ceiling 31,000 ft (9,500 m) Power/mass: 0.08 hp/lb (130 W/kg) ----------------------------------- Building Instructions Print all sheets on 210 to 230 g card, except sheet Paper, Sheet 20. 1 When gluing card parts at right-angles to another piece (eg bulkheads to the outer skin), holding together with fingers until dry usually results in the 'skeleton' image of the bulkheads - not nice!

  • Aviation Occurrence Report
    AVIATION OCCURRENCE REPORT 05-006 Fairchild-Swearingen SA227-AC Metro III ZK-POA, Loss of 3 May 2005 control and in-flight break-up, near Stratford, Taranaki province TRANSPORT ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION COMMISSION NEW ZEALAND The Transport Accident Investigation Commission is an independent Crown entity established to determine the circumstances and causes of accidents and incidents with a view to avoiding similar occurrences in the future. Accordingly it is inappropriate that reports should be used to assign fault or blame or determine liability, since neither the investigation nor the reporting process has been undertaken for that purpose. The Commission may make recommendations to improve transport safety. The cost of implementing any recommendation must always be balanced against its benefits. Such analysis is a matter for the regulator and the industry. These reports may be reprinted in whole or in part without charge, providing acknowledgement is made to the Transport Accident Investigation Commission. Report 05-006 Fairchild-Swearingen SA227-AC Metro III ZK-POA loss of control and in-flight break-up near Stratford, Taranaki province 3 May 2005 Abstract On the night of Tuesday 3 May 2005, Fairchild-Swearingen SA227-AC Metro III aeroplane ZK-POA, operated by Airwork (NZ) Limited, was on a night air transport freight flight with 2 crew and 1790 kilograms of cargo when it suffered an in-flight upset which developed into a spiral dive. The crew did not recover control and the aircraft became overstressed and broke up, to fall in pieces about rural farmland near Stratford. Both crew were killed and the aircraft and cargo destroyed.

  • Airport Master Plan
    Chapter Two FORECASTS AIRPORT MASTER PLAN The definition of demand that may be reasonably expected to occur during the useful life of an airport’s key components (e.g., runways, taxiways, terminal buildings, etc.) is an important factor in facility plan‐ ning. In airport master planning, this involves projecting aviation activity for at least a 20‐year timeframe. Aviation demand forecasting for the Grand Canyon National Park Airport (GCN or Airport) will consider commercial passenger enplanements (boardings), based aircraft, and aircraft operations. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has oversight responsibility to review and approve aviation forecasts developed in conjunction with airport planning studies. In addition, aviation activity forecasts may be an important input to future benefit‐cost analyses associated with airport development, and the FAA reviews these analyses when federal funding requests are submitted. The FAA will review individual airport forecasts with the objective of comparing them to its Terminal Area Forecasts (TAF) and the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS). Even though the TAF is updated annually, in the past there was almost always a disparity between the TAF and master plan‐ ning forecasts.
