  • Aircraft Classifications, History and Airport Technology Problem 2
    CEE 4674: Airport Planning and Design Spring 2007 Assignment 1: Aircraft Classifications, History and Airport Technology Date Due: Jan/23/2008 Instructor: Trani Problem 2 Read pages 1 and 2 in Chapter 1 in the FAA Advisory Circular 150/5300-13 (Airport Design) before answering this question. Also, read the aircraft classification handout provided in class. Examine the FAA Advisory Circular 150/5300-13 (Airport Design). Specifically examine Appendix 13 of the FAA Advisory Circular which contains information about various aircraft. a) For the aircraft shown in Table 2.1, state the Airplane Design Group (ADG) class, the Terminal Areas Procedures Aircraft Speed Category, and the wake vortex class for each vehicle. b) For each aircraft, calculate the stalling speed (minimum speed for flight) from the known aircraft approach speeds published in the FAA AC. Stalling speed is just 30% below the approach speed. Table 2.1 Aircraft to be Studied. Aircraft ADG and Speed Classification British Aerospace BAe 146-300 C-III Beech Raytheon Bonanza B36TC A-I Airbus A-320-100 C-III Gulfstream G-IV D-II Boeing 777-300 D-V Boeing 747-400 D-V Boeing 737-500 C-III Beech Airliner 1900-C B-II British Aerospace BAe Jetstream 31 B-II Dassault Falcon FAL-900 B-II Cessna Citation I B-II Bombardier DHC-8 Dash 8-300 B-III Hawker HS 125 Series 700 C-I Bombardier CRJ/200 or Canadair CL-600 B-II Cessna 150 A-I McDonnell Douglas MDC-DC-9-82 C-III CEE 4674 A1 Trani Page 1 of 3 c) Match the names with the 2-D drawings (use the number of the aircraft and match by writing on the space to the right of each aircraft).

The five crew- members and only occupants died in the crash. The weather conditions at Ontario were 600 feet overcast, with 3/4-mile visibility in fog, haze, and smoke. The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of this accident was the failure of the aircraft rudder hydraulic actuator support fitting. The failure of the fitting resulted in the inapparent loss Of left rudder control which, under the conditions of this flight, precluded the pilotk ability to maintain directional control during a simlated engine-out missed- approach.

  • 2012-AIR-00014 in the Matter Of: ROBERT STEVEN MAWHINNEY
    U.S. Department of Labor Office of Administrative Law Judges 11870 Merchants Walk - Suite 204 Newport News, VA 23606 (757) 591-5140 (757) 591-5150 (FAX) Issue Date: 27 December 2018 CASE NO.: 2012-AIR-00014 In the Matter of: ROBERT STEVEN MAWHINNEY, Complainant, v. TRANSPORT WORKERS UNION LOCAL 591, Respondent. ORDER GRANTING RESPONDENT’S MOTION FOR DISPOSITIVE ACTION AND ORDER GRANTING RESPONDENT’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY DECISION This case arises under the employee protection provisions of the Wendell H. Ford Aviation and Investment Reform Act for the 21st Century (AIR21), 49 U.S.C. § 42121 et seq. and its implementing regulations found at 29 C.F.R. § 1979. The purpose of AIR 21 is to protect employees who report alleged violations of air safety from discrimination and retaliation by their employer. Complainant, Mr. Robert Mawhinney, filed a complaint against American Airlines and Respondent, the Transportation Workers Union Local 591 (TWU). Complainant alleges he was “threatened, ignored, abandoned, and subjected to a hostile work environment” and ultimately terminated from employment on September 23, 2011, by American Airlines acting in concert with TWU.1 To prevail in an AIR 21 claim, a complainant2 must prove by a preponderance of the evidence that he engaged in protected activity, and the respondent subjected him to the unfavorable personnel action alleged in the complaint because he engaged in protected activity. Palmer v. Canadian National Railway/Illinois Central Railroad Co., ARB No. 16-035, 2016 WL 6024269, ALJ No. 2014-FRS-00154 (ARB Sep. 30, 2016); §42121(b)(2)(B)(iii). 1 Mawhinney Complaint filed October 5, 2011 (2011 Complaint).
