La base de trabajo ha sido el análisis de la prensa especializada, a partir de la cual se han identificado los casos innovadores. Gracias al análisis de su origen (tecnológico, geo- político, aero-político, corporativo, de producto y en la infraestructura) y a su contextualización, hemos podido trazar la historia de la aviación comercial desde su origen en 1919 hasta nuestros días. Palabras clave: Historia contemporánea, Aviación comercial, Política aérea, Relaciones internacionales, Turismo, Innovación, Aerolíneas, Aeropuertos Abstract This doctoral thesis analyses the contribution of commercial aviation to the contemporary history, particularly in the field of external relations, international economy and mass tourism. We have identified all innovations with a structural impact on the industry through specialised press, considering the changes on technology, geopolitics, aeropolitics, business models, product and services, and infrastructure. This methodology has allowed us to write the history of the commercial aviation since its origin in 1919.

  • Throughout the 1930S, American Airmen Fought the Imperial Japanese Army in China
    Throughout the 1930s, American airmen fought the Imperial Japanese Army in China. Before the Flying Tigers By Robert E. van Patten ully 10 years before the advent of Claire Chennault’s Flying Tigers, American pilots and airplanes were involved in an air war over China. What was to become the Sino–Japanese War in 1937 actually began with a Japanese incursion in Manchuria in 1931. This conflict festered for the next six years. In that period, pilots from the US, Britain, France, Italy, Russia, and probably Germany took part in battles in the skies over China. FWith the exception of the Italian and Russian contingents, which were officially sanctioned by their governments, the pilots who trained the Chi- nese and who fought for them were adventurers, soldiers of fortune, and out-of-work military professionals. Most of them were Americans. Many historians consider this hit-or-miss, bloody little air war to be a backwater of events. Yet the battles fought by these early warriors laid the groundwork for a massive air war over China, Southeast Asia, the Mariana Islands, and the Japanese homeland. The fighting history of US–built aircraft in combat inside China actually extends back to 1930, when American–produced light bombers were used in action against two northern warlords. In 1931, 20 light bombing –observation airplanes were ordered from Douglas. These are believed to have been the Type 02MC-4, large two-place, radial-engined biplanes, which were used as trainers at the Nanking flying school. The invasion of Manchuria by Imperial Japanese Army units in Septem- ber 1931 added impetus to the strengthening of the Chinese Air Force, not least because the Japanese attack put an end to a civil war between factions based in Nanking and Canton.

  • Airline Alliances—Who Benefits?
    Journal of Air Transport Management 8 (2002) 401–407 Airline alliances—who benefits? S.C. Morrish, R.T. Hamilton* Department of Management, University of Canterbury, Private Bag 4800, Christchurch 1, New Zealand Abstract The advent of global airline alliances in the 1980s gave rise to concerns that increased monopoly power of major carriers would lead to large and sustained producer surpluses. These global alliances now enjoy dominant market shares in the industry. This review examines some 15 years of alliance experience and finds no conclusive evidence that alliance membership has yielded monopoly profits to the airlines. Improvements in terms of load factors and general productivity levels have, for the most part, been accompanied by fare reductions of similar magnitude, resulting in only modest gains to the carriers. r 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

  • 1 the Development of Long-Haul Air Services
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF LONG-HAUL AIR SERVICES FROM REGIONAL AND SECONDARY AIRPORTS IN EUROPE Paper submitted to the 45 th Congress of the European Regional Science Association, 23-27 August 2005, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam Nigel P.S. Dennis, Senior Research Fellow, Transport Studies Group, University of Westminster, 35 Marylebone Road, London NW1 5LS, United Kingdom. Tel: +44 20 7911 5000 ext 3344 Fax: +44 20 7911 5057 email: [email protected] Abstract This paper examines the recent development of long-haul scheduled air services from Europe and identifies the increasing dominance of the major hub airports. Airline failures and changes of strategy have led to many of the regional European airports seeing their networks reduce in the last decade, while it also appears more difficult to replicate Ryanair’s use of secondary airports in the long-haul arena. The current pattern of regional service to intercontinental destinations is interpreted. Aircraft and product developments are discussed. More non-stop destinations and higher frequencies are expected from the major European hubs to other world regions, coupled with increased non-European carrier service to second-tier cities in Europe. The scope for a long- haul low-cost airline is analysed and traditional operations are shown to be in a relatively stronger position. It is concluded that the best scope for long-haul services from the regions is to major hub airports in other parts of the world, such as those developed by Emirates and Continental. Point-to-point leisure services will grow where there are ethnic links or holiday destinations involved. Otherwise, the regional airports are in the hands of the major airlines or alliance groups and their European feeder operations.

  • Arts Education Outreach and Advocacy Initiative
    Arizona Citizens for the Arts Selected for 3-Year Initiative to Advance State Arts Education Policy Teams in 10 States Join Pilot Program to Strengthen Arts Through State Policy Phoenix, Ariz. – August 22, 2014 – Arizona is among ten states selected to join Americans for the Arts, the nation’s leading nonprofit organization for advancing the arts and arts education, to administer a three-year pilot program to expand policy support for local arts education and access to arts program and instruction in Arizona schools. Lead members of the Arizona team include Catherine “Rusty” Foley, executive director of Arizona Citizens for the Arts; Lynn Tuttle, director of arts education for the Arizona Department of Education; Alexandra Nelson, director of arts learning, Arizona Commission on the Arts; and Tee Lambert, president of the Washington Elementary School District and a member of the Arizona School Board Association’s Legislative Committee. “The link between arts education and student performance is well documented in terms of improved test scores and critical thinking. We are committed to doing all we can to build awareness of that dynamic with a collective goal to expand arts education in our schools,” Foley said. “This is a vitally important collaboration that will benefit students across Arizona to further prepare them for the workforce by enhancing and building their skills. We will support the effort in every way possible.” Joining Arizona in the pilot program are Arkansas, California, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, North Carolina, Oklahoma and Wyoming. The announcement was made at the National Conference of State Legislatures’ legislative summit in Minneapolis.
