  • Cabin Crew Safety January-February 2000
    F L I G H T S A F E T Y F O U N D A T I O N CABIN CREW SAFETY Vol. 35 No. 1 For Everyone Concerned with the Safety of Flight January–February 2000 Working in, Around Aircraft Cabins Requires Awareness of Fall Prevention The availability of limited data on slips, trips and falls during normal aircraft operations complicates efforts to improve the prevention of injury to crewmembers and passengers in the cabin environment. Nevertheless, airlines periodically should review fall-prevention strategies and related training of flight attendants and other workers. FSF Editorial Staff In most contexts, being injured by a fall simply study by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics said means that the force of gravity caused a person’s that falls were the most common “injury and downward motion and injury occurred when illness cases by event or exposure” for pilots, most the moving person suddenly decelerated by striking involving walkways, stairs and vehicles. Falls were a surface or an object. When aircraft are in flight the third most common such event for flight or in motion on the ground, a variety of factors attendants, most involving walkways and stairs.1 can contribute to falls. For example, accident/ incident reports have identified factors such as In the early 1990s, researchers attempting to study turbulence, autopilot malfunctions, aircraft fatal falls in the workplace encountered difficulty upsets, sudden evasive maneuvers by flight crews, identifying such occurrences in most industries.2 aircraft collisions with airport structures, collisions Researchers have found that the available data do between ground vehicles and aircraft, and sudden not specify the circumstances for a large proportion braking while a flight crew is taxiing the of falls.3 Similarly, little public data and few studies aircraft.

  • Aircraft Accident Report: American Airlines, Inc., Mcdonnell Douglas
    Explosive decompression, American Airlines, Inc., McDonnell Douglas DC-10-10, N103AA, Near Windsor, Ontario, Canada, June 12, 1972 Micro-summary: On climb, this McDonnell Douglas DC-10-10 experienced an opening of a cargo door, explosive decompression, and a main cabin floor collapse, disrupting the flight control system. Event Date: 1972-06-12 at 1925 EST Investigative Body: National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), USA Investigative Body's Web Site: http://www.ntsb.gov/ Cautions: 1. Accident reports can be and sometimes are revised. Be sure to consult the investigative agency for the latest version before basing anything significant on content (e.g., thesis, research, etc). 2. Readers are advised that each report is a glimpse of events at specific points in time. While broad themes permeate the causal events leading up to crashes, and we can learn from those, the specific regulatory and technological environments can and do change. Your company's flight operations manual is the final authority as to the safe operation of your aircraft! 3. Reports may or may not represent reality. Many many non-scientific factors go into an investigation, including the magnitude of the event, the experience of the investigator, the political climate, relationship with the regulatory authority, technological and recovery capabilities, etc. It is recommended that the reader review all reports analytically. Even a "bad" report can be a very useful launching point for learning. 4. Contact us before reproducing or redistributing a report from this anthology.

  • 6 Fuselage Design
    6 - 1 6 Fuselage design In conventional aircraft the fuselage serves to accommodate the payload. The wings are used to store fuel and are therefore not available to accommodate the payload. The payload of civil aircraft can consist of passengers, baggage and cargo. The passengers are accommodated in the cabin and the cargo in the cargo compartment. Large items of baggage are also stored in the cargo compartment, whereas smaller items are taken into the cabin as carry-on baggage and stowed away in overhead stowage compartments above the seats. The cockpit and key aircraft systems are also located in the fuselage. 6.1 Fuselage cross-section and cargo compartment Today’s passenger aircraft have a constant fuselage cross-section in the central section. This design reduces the production costs (same frames; simply instead of doubly curved surfaces, i.e. a sheet of metal can be unwound over the fuselage) and makes it possible to construct aircraft variants with a lengthened or shortened fuselage. In this section we are going to examine the cross-section of this central fuselage section. In order to accommodate a specific number of passengers, the fuselage can be long and narrow or, conversely, short and wide. As the fuselage contributes approximately 25% to 50 % of an aircraft's total drag, it is especially important to ensure that it has a low-drag shape. A fuselage 1 fineness ratio ldFF/ of approximately 6 provides the smallest tube drag . However, as a longer fuselage leads to a longer tail lever arm, and therefore to smaller empennages and lower tail drag, a fineness ratio of 8 is seen as the ideal according to [ROSKAM III].

Following an approach to runway 4 right at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, the airplane touched down about 4,700 ft (1,440 meters) beyond the threshold of the 8,400-foot (2,560-meter) runway and could not be stopped on the runway. The airplane was steered to the right to avoid the approach light pier at the departure end of the runway and came to rest in Thurston Basin, a tidal waterway located about 600 ft from the departure end of runway 4R.
