But hard political reality means this appearance of generosity may not be all it seems n the surface, the US military’s half-trillion dollar Obudget request for fiscal year 2016, unveiled on 2 February, feels quite profligate compared with recent, sequestration-constrained years. The Lockheed Martin F-35 programme is at a critical moment. It needs to dramatically ramp up production to drive the economies of scale that will lower unit prices. Next year’s budget request complies, with a line item that increases F-35 production by 50%.

  • Airbus Develops New A380 Cabin Enablers, Including “New Forward Stairs” Option
    Airbus develops new A380 cabin enablers, including “New Forward Stairs” option By Melissa Silva on April, 10 2017 | Inflight Entertainment Airbus is developing a full spectrum of new cabin enablers for customers of its flagship A380 airliner. The latest is the “New Forward Stairs” (NFS) option, which was presented last week at the Aircraft Interiors Expo (AIX) in Hamburg. Together these cabin enhancements will make the already efficient and comfortable airliner even better: Overall cabin optimization is expected to result in the freeing-up of more cabin floor space for around 80 additional passengers, bringing airlines significant additional revenues. “Continuous improvement of our products is our daily work," said Dr. Kiran Rao, EVP of Strategy and Marketing at Airbus Commercial Aircraft. "This new package for our A380 customers is a smart way to meet airline needs while improving the A380 economics with additional revenues and innovating in passenger comfort.” Dr. Rao added: “Only the A380 has the economies of scale and development potential to efficiently solve the problem of increasing congestion at large airports while providing the best comfort for passengers. The aircraft can also serve fast growing markets and airlines' regional airports, so we are adapting the aircraft to meet evolving market needs.” With this latest proposal of the NFS option, the package of new cabin enablers for the A380 now comprises the following: 1 Copyright DutyFree Magazine. All rights reserved. New Forward Stairs — 20 more passengers (Business, Premium Economy and Economy Classes) The NFS involves relocation of the forward stair from door 1 to door 2, and combining the entrance of the NFS to the upper deck (going up), with the adjacent staircase to the lower-deck crew-rest (going down).

  • Preventing Crew Fatigue
    There’s a long history of crew fatigue as a factor in fatal accidents. All too often, flight crews don’t recognize the risks posed by long flights, extended duty days and sleep loss. For instance, look at the facts surrounding the fatal October 2004 crash of a medevac Learjet 35A into Otay Mountain, just east of San Diego’s Brown Field Municipal Airport (SDM). After flying three legs, the crew planned an FAR Part 91 deadhead IFR flight from SDM back to their base in Albuquerque. It was to be a short 1+15 jaunt. On the previous afternoon, they’d left at 3:20 p.m. from Albuquerque to fly to El Paso, Texas, to pick up a medical technician. The second leg was a 3-hr. mission from El Paso to Manzanillo, Mexico, to board the medevac patient and another passenger. After hours on the ground at Manzanillo, the crew departed at 8:40 p.m. for the 3+24 flight to San Diego, where an ambulance would transport the patient to a local hospital. They landed at Brown shortly after 11:00 p.m. due to the time zone change. The CVR told much about the crew’s fatigue. The dialogue between the captain and first officer reeks of impaired judgment and faulty decision-making. The two pilots might as well have been talking after being over-served in the airport bar. The captain said he intended to depart eastbound on Brown Field’s Runway 8L to avoid noise-sensitive populated areas to the west. The departure plan also would head them for home base at Albuquerque just after midnight.

Established in 1866 to further the art, science and engineering of aeronautics, the Society has been at the forefront of developments in aerospace ever since. We seek to i) promote the highest possible standards in aerospace disciplines; ii) provide specialist information and act as a central forum for the exchange of ideas; and iii) play a leading role in influencing opinion on aerospace matters. The RAeS is also working with the Government and industry leaders within the Aerospace Growth Partnership (AGP). About the Honorable Company of Air Pilots The Company was established as a Guild in 1929 in order to ensure that pilots and navigators of the (then) fledgling aviation industry were accepted and regarded as professionals. From the beginning, the Guild was modelled on the lines of the Livery Companies of the City of London, which were originally established to protect the interests and standards of those involved in their respective trades or professions. In 1956, the Guild was formally recognised as a Livery Company. In 2014, it was granted a Royal Charter in the name of the Honourable Company of Air Pilots. Today, the principal activities of the Company are centred on sponsoring and encouraging action and activities designed to ensure that aircraft are piloted and navigated safely by individuals who are highly competent, self-reliant, dependable and respected.
