Suggesting that serving officers from the Indian dustry is growing in India and SP’s Aviation continues to Air Force should be deputed to the DGCA for effective capture the growth story. controls, the author at the same time calls for improved facilities for civil aviation training which at the moment are at pathetic levels. Echoing similar concern, Air Marshal (Retd) V.K. Bhatia wonders what is happening on the Indian civil aviation scene and if “fake pilots” were the norm then the sound of falling apples would certainly be confused with engine trouble and a jetliner could land on its nose gear. While the cleansing of DGCA has been recommended, he advocates that the DGCA should be enthused with a sense of probity and excellence similar to that of the Central Medical Establishment of the IAF. The focus in this issue is also on the fast closing me- dium multi-role combat aircraft (MMRCA) deal. Air Marshal (Retd) Pandey states that unless the Ministry of Defence is able to formulate a template for offset investment, the ten- dering process may not progress to the next level of opening commercial bids.

This issue is bigger, more comprehensive and has generated even more interest than the inaugural issue. Response to our market survey was even higher. As promised, we would try to make each issue better than the last, so you will hopefully notice some positive changes. These include an expanded “Mood & Intentions” survey questions and analysis with responses up and from a better cross section across the Asia Pacific region, a bolstered “Economics” data and outlook provided by Morgan Stanley Research, an expanded and better segregated “OEM Activity” section, an adjusted “Market Dynamics” segment to dampen the sensitivity of underlying assumptions, and a visually-improved presentation format for our “Market Summary”.

  • Air Transport
    THE GEOGRAPHY OF TRANSPORT SYSTEMS Air Transport Authors: Dr. John Bowen and Dr. Jean-Paul Rodrigue 1. The Rise of Air Transportation Air transportation was slow to take off after the Wright Brothers breakthrough at Kitty Hawk in 1903. More than ten years passed before first faltering efforts to launch scheduled passenger services. On January 1, 1914, the world’s first scheduled flight with a paying passenger hopped across the bay separating Tampa and St. Petersburg, Florida for a fare that eventually stabilized at $10 per person, round-trip (about $200 in 2006 dollars). By comparison, Low-Cost Carrier (LCC) Southwest Airlines could carry a passenger from Tampa to Seattle and back, more than a hundred times farther for only slightly more than $200 in 2007. World War I, which began just months after that first flight from Tampa, provided the first real spur to the development of commercial aviation as air power began to be used and better aircraft were quickly designed. The war left a legacy of thousands of unemployed pilots and surplus aircraft along with an appreciation for the future significance of this new technology. However, air transport still suffered from limitations in terms of capacity and range. 1919 marked the first commercial international air transport service between England and France. It was also the same year that with the Paris Convention that each country controlled the airspace over its territory. Governments played a crucial role in the next phase of aviation history. In Europe, governments established new passenger airlines while on the other side of the Atlantic, the American government heavily subsidized airmail.

    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research Volume 8, Issue 11, November-2017 829 ISSN 2229-5518 Fly high India Dr. Chaitanya Niphadkar, Lancaster University Alumnus (UK) and Sandeep Bahl, Senior Aviation Professional (Email: [email protected]; [email protected]) The aviation is one of the greatest wonders that technology and science has allowed us to discover. Aviation industry is a growing yet challenging industry. The possibilities of the development of air traffic and passenger travel internationally have grown drastically over the years and India is not an exception to this. In fact, India is among the top 10 civil aviation markets in the world. Statistics confirm to have served over 160 million customers during financial year 2017 almost double the size from four years ago. Furthermore, it is expected that India will be one of the top 3 civil aviation markets by 2020. History of civil aviation in India The history of civil aviation in India can be traced back to December 1912 and started with the first domestic air route between Karachi and Delhi operated by the Indian State Air services in collaboration with the Imperial Airways, UK that was in existence with the London-Karachi route. After three years, the first Indian airline namely Tata Sons Ltd. started a regular airmail service between Karachi and Madras then (now called as Chennai) without any patronage from the government. At the time of independence, the number of air transport companies, which were operating within and beyond the frontiers of the country, carrying both air cargo and passengers, were nine in all.
