The investigation, which can take a number of months to complete, will conclude with a published report. © Crown copyright 2015 1 AAIB Bulletin: 2/2015 HZ-A6 EW/C2013/12/01 SERIOUS INCIDENT Aircraft Type and Registration: Gulfstream 550, HZ-A6 No & Type of Engines: 2 Rolls-Royce BR710C4-11 turbofan engines Year of Manufacture: 2004 Date & Time (UTC): 10 December 2013 at 0325 hrs Location: Stansted Airport, Essex Type of Flight: Commercial Air Transport Persons on Board: Crew - 4 Passengers - 3 Injuries: Crew - None Passengers - None Nature of Damage: Underside of left wing and left landing gear door Commander’s Licence: Airline Transport Pilot’s Licence Commander’s Age: 53 Commander’s Flying Experience: 8,685 hours (of which 1,311 were on type) Last 90 days - 70 hours Last 28 days - 0 hours Information Source: AAIB Field Investigation Synopsis The aircraft was carrying out a charter flight from Riyadh in Saudi Arabia to London Stansted Airport. It was radar vectored for a CAT I, ILS DME approach to Runway 22 at Stansted with the autopilot (AP) and autothrust (AT) engaged. Conditions at the time were below the CAT I approach minima. With the aircraft fully established on the approach, the AP and AT were disengaged at 1,600 ft aal and the aircraft was hand flown by the commander for the remainder of the approach and landing. The localiser was maintained, but the aircraft flew above the glidepath before descending through it. For reasons that could not be established, go-around mode was selected, which would have inhibited the EGPWS glideslope warnings. In the final stages of the approach the aircraft was well below the glideslope, causing it to strike the Runway 22 ILS localiser monitor aerial and the Runway 04 localiser aerial array, before touching down short of the Runway 22 threshold. The accident occurred as a result of the pilot continuing to land from a destabilised approach, rather than performing a go-around. History of the flight The flight crew reported for duty at 1730 hrs and carried out the normal flight planning, which included reviewing the weather. The TAF for Stansted covering the aircraft’s ETA gave a 40% probability of fog between 0300 hrs and 1000 hrs, with a surface visibility of 500 m and cloud overcast at 100 ft. The weather at Manchester Airport, the selected alternate, was forecast to be 10 km visibility with cloud FEW at 3,500 ft for the same period. © Crown copyright 2015 3 AAIB Bulletin: 2/2015 HZ-A6 EW/C2013/12/01 The commander was the pilot flying (PF) and the co-pilot was the pilot monitoring (PM). There was one deferred defect, concerning the commander’s audio control panel which had the mask/boom selector button stuck in the mask position, but with the hand-held microphone available to the commander, this defect was accepted. The aircraft departed at 2001 hrs and, following an uneventful flight, commenced a descent for a CAT I1 approach into Stansted. The Stansted ATIS was recorded as: Information Bravo, Runway 22 at time 0220 hrs, wind 160º at 04 kt, Runway 22, Runway Visual Range (RVR) 250 m in fog with broken cloud at 100 ft, temperature 2ºC with a dew point 1ºC and a QNH of 1030 hPa.

    Police Aviation News 286 February 2020 1 ©Police Aviation Research Issue 286 February 2020 Police Aviation News 286 February 2020 2 EDITORIAL One day into the New World that is a United Kingdom that is nominally free of the European Union there might be an expectation that there would be general dancing in the streets and much flag waving. Well it seems that, but for the odd pocket of excess, life goes on as normal until the real deal is done at the end of this year. I expect that no-one really trusts any politician to get it right at all, never mind on time, so life goes on. As a supporter of Brexit the editor, Police Aviation News and PAvCon Europe, will continue serv- ing the needs and aspirations of the airborne emergency services industry across the world – and Europe. I do not expect any period of the transition to be visible. For years now the police across Europe have welcomed the unique PAvCon conference event to their countries, and occasionally to hosting within their establishments. The Bundespolizei headquarters building in central Berlin hosts this year’s event. Even without the modest award afforded the editor some years back in Munich, the new venue is itself seen as a rare and precious honour that is also appreciated by all the well-informed attendees currently signing up for the event. Further thanks from the editor to the Helicopter Association International for the recent Law Enforcement Award, sponsored by MD Helicopters, and the Safety award from Airborne Public Safety Association last summer, again sponsored by MD Helicopters.

  • Introduction
    CHAPTER 1 Introduction "For some years I have been afflicted with the belief that flight is possible to man." Wilbur Wright, May 13, 1900 1.1 ATMOSPHERIC FLIGHT MECHANICS Atmospheric flight mechanics is a broad heading that encompasses three major disciplines; namely, performance, flight dynamics, and aeroelasticity. In the past each of these subjects was treated independently of the others. However, because of the structural flexibility of modern airplanes, the interplay among the disciplines no longer can be ignored. For example, if the flight loads cause significant structural deformation of the aircraft, one can expect changes in the airplane's aerodynamic and stability characteristics that will influence its performance and dynamic behavior. Airplane performance deals with the determination of performance character- istics such as range, endurance, rate of climb, and takeoff and landing distance as well as flight path optimization. To evaluate these performance characteristics, one normally treats the airplane as a point mass acted on by gravity, lift, drag, and thrust. The accuracy of the performance calculations depends on how accurately the lift, drag, and thrust can be determined. Flight dynamics is concerned with the motion of an airplane due to internally or externally generated disturbances. We particularly are interested in the vehicle's stability and control capabilities. To describe adequately the rigid-body motion of an airplane one needs to consider the complete equations of motion with six degrees of freedom. Again, this will require accurate estimates of the aerodynamic forces and moments acting on the airplane. The final subject included under the heading of atmospheric flight mechanics is aeroelasticity.
