Reference no. L-35/16 5 April 2017 RL 2017:05e SHK investigates accidents and incidents from a safety perspective. Its investigations are aimed at preventing a similar event from occurring again, or limiting the effects of such an event.

SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS ................................................................ 43 4 (43) RL 2017:05e General observations The Swedish Accident Investigation Authority (Statens haverikommission – SHK) is a state authority with the task of investigating accidents and incidents with the aim of improving safety. SHK accident investigations are intended to, as far as possible, determine both the sequence of events and the cause of the events, along with the damage and effects in general. An investigation shall provide the basis for decisions which are aimed at preventing similar events from happening in the future, or to limit the effects of such an event. At the same time the investigation provides a basis for an assessment of the operations performed by the public emergency services in connection with the event and, if there is a need for them, improvements to the emergency services. SHK accident investigations thus aim to answer three questions: What happened? Why did this happen? How can a similar event be avoided in future? SHK does not have any supervisory remit, nor is it charged with apportioning blame or liability with respect to damages. This means that issues concerning liability are neither

  • The Impact of Airline Franchising on Air Service Provision in the Highlands
    Journal of Transport Geography, Volume 11, Issue 2, June 2003, Pages 117-129. The impact of airline franchising on air service provision in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland Romano Pagliari 1 Department of Human Factors & Air Transport, School of Engineering, Cranfield University, Cranfield, MK43 0AL Abstract The aim of this paper is to evaluate the impact of airline franchising on levels of air service provision in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland. Results showed that while air carriers operating under franchise agreements were offering reduced levels of capacity, they were able, assisted by a more suitable mix of aircraft, to deliver significant service improvements. These improvements were manifested in the scheduling of more convenient flight times, a higher proportion of direct services and the introduction of new routes. Compared to the previous incumbent, franchised operators were also better able at managing capacity in relation to demand with increased load factors reported after 1993. The implications of these results is that little evidence could be identified of any substantial deterioration in service levels as a consequence of franchising. 1 Tel 00 44 (0) 1234 754231; fax: 0044 (0) 01234 752207, e-mail [email protected] 1 Key Words Air services, Highlands and Islands, franchising, service frequency, maximum lapsed destination time, average seating capacity per flight, average in-flight time, capacity, traffic, load factor. Introduction The economic and social development of peripheral regions is highly dependant on the provision of adequate and easily affordable transportation services. In some regions of world, because of geographic location, climate and physical terrain, air transport is the only viable means of transportation for both goods and people.

  • Pärnu Lennujaama Renoveerimise Analüüs
    Eesti Lennuakadeemia Lennundusettevõtte käitamise õppekava Lennundusettevõtte juhtimise eriala Birgit Pihelgas PÄRNU LENNUJAAMA RENOVEERIMISE ANALÜÜS Praktikatöö Juhendaja: Allan Nõmmik Tartu 2016 SISSEJUHATUS Statistikaameti andmetel on Pärnu Eesti turismisihtkoht number 1 väljaspool Tallinna, mida kü- lastas 2014. aastal ööbimiste põhjal 289 122 inimest. Kümne aasta taguse ajaga võrreldes on ma- jutatute arv tõusnud üle 40%. Ometi on murettekitavaks tendentsiks Pärnu ühe peamise sihtturu – Põhjamaade – külastajate arvu pidev langustrend. Eurobarameetri uuringu tulemuste kohaselt te- hakse 46% reisidest lennukiga. Tulevikus on oodata antud trendi kasvu veelgi – üha enam eelista- takse puhata seal, kuhu on tagatud kiire ja mugav ligipääs. Pärnu maakonnale oluline sihtturg asub meist ühe lennutunni kaugusel – nii lähedal, kuid lennu- ühenduste puudumise tõttu ometi nii kaugel. „Pärnumaa turismi- ja puhkemajanduse arengukava 2014-2020“ visioon on Pärnumaa arenemine aastaringseks tervise- ja pereturismi sihtkohaks number üks Baltimaades väljaspool pealinnu Vilniust, Tallinnat ja Riiat. Tänaseks on kohalike ettevõtjate poolt tehtud laiapõhjalised investeeringud, mis ulatuvad üle 60 miljoni euro, teenuste kvaliteedi tõstmiseks ning selle eesmärgi poole liikumiseks. Ometi pole see saavutatav kui ligipääsetavus maakonnale ei parane. Antud töö eesmärgiks on välja selgitada Pärnumaa turismisektori võimekus lennuturiste vastu võtta ning kaardistada potentsiaalsed sihtkohad ja lennuliinid. Töö esimene osa annab ülevaate lennutranspordi turu arengutest
