  • Runway Analysis
    CHAPTER 5 RUNWAY ANALYSIS 5 5 RUNWAY ANALYSIS INTRODUCTION The primary issue to be addressed in the William R. Fairchild International Airport (CLM) Master Plan involves the ultimate length and configuration of the runway system. At present there are two runways; primary Runway 8/26 and crosswind Runway 13/31. Runway 8/26 is 6,347 feet long and 150-feet wide with a displaced threshold of 1,354 feet on the approach end to Runway 26. The threshold was displaced to provide for an unobstructed visual approach slope of 20:1. Runway 13/31 is designated as the crosswind runway and is 3,250-feet long by 50-feet wide. In the 1997 ALP Update, the FAA determined that this runway was not required to provide adequate wind coverage and would not be eligible for FAA funding of any improvements in the future. The Port of Port Angeles has committed to keeping this runway functional without FAA support for as long as it is feasible. Subsequent sections of this analysis will reexamine the need for the runway. Both runways are supported by parallel taxiway systems with Taxiway A serving Runway 8/26 and Taxiway J for Runway 13/31. Taxiway A is 40 feet wide and Taxiway J is 50 feet wide. AIRFIELD REQUIREMENTS In determining airfield requirements, FAA Advisory Circular (AC) 150/5300-13, Airport Design (Change 14), has been consulted. This circular requires that future classification of the airport be defined as the basis for airfield planning criteria. As shown in the forecast chapter, the critical aircraft at CLM is expected to be the small business jet represented by the Cessna Citation within 5-years.

We accept no responsibility for the use or application of this information. We suggest that readers contact the specific government and military programme offices if seeking to confirm the reliability of any data. 1 MARKET OVERVIEW Broadly speaking, the global helicopter market is currently facing a two- pronged assault. The military helicopter segment has been impacted significantly by continued defense budgetary pressures across most traditional markets, and a recent slide in global crude oil prices has impacted the demand for new civil helicopters as well as the level of activity for existing fleets engaged in the offshore oil & gas exploration sector. This situation has impacted industry OEMs significantly, many of which had been working towards strengthening the civil helicopter segment to partially offset the impact of budgetary cuts on the military segment. However, the medium- to long-term view of the market is promising given the presence of strong fundamentals and persistent, sustainable growth drivers. The market for military helicopters in particular is set to cross a technological threshold in the form of next-generation compound helicopters and tilt rotorcraft.

  • Aviation Activity Forecasts BOWERS FIELD AIRPORT AIRPORT MASTER PLAN
    Chapter 3 – Aviation Activity Forecasts BOWERS FIELD AIRPORT AIRPORT MASTER PLAN Chapter 3 – Aviation Activity Forecasts The overall goal of aviation activity forecasting is to prepare forecasts that accurately reflect current conditions, relevant historic trends, and provide reasonable projections of future activity, which can be translated into specific airport facility needs anticipated during the next twenty years and beyond. Introduction This chapter provides updated forecasts of aviation activity for Kittitas County Airport – Bowers Field (ELN) for the twenty-year master plan horizon (2015-2035). The most recent FAA-approved aviation activity forecasts for Bowers Field were prepared in 2011 for the Airfield Needs Assessment project. Those forecasts evaluated changes in local conditions and activity that occurred since the previous master plan forecasts were prepared in 2000, and re-established base line conditions. The Needs Assessment forecasts provide the “accepted” airport-specific projections that are most relevant for comparison with the new master plan forecasts prepared for this chapter. The forecasts presented in this chapter are consistent with Bowers Field’s current and historic role as a community/regional general aviation airport. Bowers Field is the only airport in Kittitas County capable of accommodating a full range of general aviation activity, including business class turboprops and business jets. This level of capability expands the airport’s role to serve the entire county and the local Ellensburg community. The intent is to provide an updated set of aviation demand projections for Bowers Field that will permit airport management to make the decisions necessary to maintain a viable, efficient, and cost-effective facility that meets the area’s air transportation needs.

  • The Sad Saga of the Beechcraft Starship. Captains Kirk and Picard
    50SKYSHADESImage not found or type unknown- aviation news THE SAD SAGA OF THE BEECHCRAFT STARSHIP News / Manufacturer Image not found or type unknown Captains Kirk and Picard had starships to explore the universe. Earthly mortals could have had futuristic Starships to crisscross the world, but circumstances, both in development and marketing, limited the success of what was otherwise a stunning aircraft. © 2015-2021 50SKYSHADES.COM — Reproduction, copying, or redistribution for commercial purposes is prohibited. 1 In the early 1980s, Beechcraft began looking for a successor to its popular King Air. The objective was for this successor to be faster, quieter, and safer with an equal or greater payload, and, of course have the sales success as the King Air. Developmental History The design result was a sleek, twin turboprop pusher, canard design. Another goal was to use composite materials to maximum extent possible to reduce weight and increase structural integrity compared to the metal structures of their previous aircraft. An added safety feature of the canard design is that it would be essentially stall proof. Canards are a front wing that actually produce lift. As the aircraft approaches a stall, the canards stall first, causing the nose to drop slightly, ensuring that the main wing continues to fly, enabling a prompt stall recovery. Although there several very successful canard experimental aircraft such as the Rutan Long E Z and the Velocity, a six-to-eight passenger composite canard was a new concept, and Beechcraft would experience unexpected developmental challenges. The Starship is a two-surface aircraft, i.e., it has a main wing and the canard, while the canard Piaggio P.180, successfully introduced in 1990, is a three-surface design that includes a conventional horizontal stabilizer and elevators.
