The paper summarises the latest height monitoring results from the Australian Airspace Monitoring Agency (AAMA) up to April 2014. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 The Ninth meeting of the Regional Monitoring Agencies Coordination Group (RMACG/9) was recently held in Paris during the period 19-23 May 2014. All 13 ICAO endorsed RMAs were in attendance. The AAMA provided a number of papers to the meeting including details of current ADSB monitoring outcomes. 2. DISCUSSION 2.1 Attachment 1 provides a paper presented by the AAMA to the RMACG/9 meeting. This paper discusses the latest height monitoring conducted by the Australian Airspace Monitoring Agency (AAMA) using the Automatic Data Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) network. Basic statistics are given along with example cases. 1.2 Currently the AAMA has monitored 85% of all Australian registered RVSM approved aircraft and approximately 99% of all major Australian airline fleets. Those unmonitored are so because of lack of ADS-B fitment and difficulties in accessing GMU monitoring. 3. ACTION BY THE MEETING 3.1 The meeting is invited to note the information contained in Attachment 1. ---END--- RMACG/9-WP/133 International Civil Aviation Organisation ` WORKING PAPER SEPARATION AND AIRSPACE SAFETY PANEL (SASP) WORKING GROUP MEETING NINTH MEETING Paris, France, May 2014 Agenda Item 7: Long Term Monitoring Requirements Implementation HEIGHT MONITORING RESULTS FROM THE AAMA TO APRIL 2014 (Presented by AAMA) (Prepared by Dr Steven Barry ) Summary This paper summarises the latest height monitoring results from the Australian Airspace Monitoring Agency (AAMA) up to April 2014.

Table 1: Basic statistics for AAMA height monitoring using ADS-B data 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 This paper discusses the latest height monitoring conducted by the Australian Airspace Monitoring Agency (AAMA) using the Automatic Data Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) net- work. Basic statistics are given along with example cases. 1.2 Currently the AAMA has monitored 85% of of all Australian registered RVSM approved aircraft and approximately 99% of all major Australian airline eets. Those unmonitored are so because of lack of ADS-B tment and diculties in accessing GMU monitoring. 1.3 A major issue with using ADS-B data for calculation of Altimetry System Error (ASE) is establishment of which height geoid is being transmitted by the aircraft; height above mean sea level (HAMSL) or height above ellipsoid (HAE or WGS 84). This can be statistically determined if suciently good quality data is obtained from a wide range of geographic regions. Some aircraft switch between HAMSL and HAE when pilot or co-pilot avionics are used and this is termed a variable geoid. 1.4 Given sucient data the ASE can be determined to high degree of accuracy (±10 ft). For some aircraft which have limited data a precise ASE value can not be determined, however if the range of possible ASE is still acceptably below the ±245ft limit then the aircraft can be considered monitored. 1.5 In line with previous work the data was corrected for due to HAMSL data interpolation errors and bias in time of day or location, as determined from sampling against 1500 aircraft with accurate ASE results. 1.6 The Altimetry System Error (ASE) data was obtained by processing ADS-B messages for aircraft from the Australian ADS-B network with additional data provided from Indonesian ground stations and a station in Bangkok. The data spans 1 January 2014 to 31 March 2014. Table 1 shows the main statistics for the data. 1.7 Figure 1 shows the ASE values for the most common 17 aircraft types in our sample. For each aircraft type a box plot is given with each accompanying red dot indicating the ASE -2- RMACG/9-WP/133 Figure 1: ASE by aircraft type for 17 of the most common aircraft types ordered by median ASE. Box plots are given for each distribution with the accompanying red dots visually representing the ASE for each aircraft in that sample. value for that aircraft. The results here are for the 2124 aircraft for which ASE values can be determined. 1.8 Figure 2 shows the ASE values for the less common aircraft types in our sample. For each aircraft type a box plot is given with each accompanying red dot indicating the ASE value for that aircraft. The results here are for the 2124 aircraft for which ASE values can be determined. 1.9 Table 2 shows the data that accompanies Figure 1; that is, ASE by aircraft type including the mean, lower and upper bounds, and standard deviation. 1.10 Figure 3 shows the ASE distribution for the 2124 aircraft for which ASE values can be determined. The distribution is a Kernal Density Estimate caculated using the Python default routine (scipy.stats.gaussian_kde). The extreme ASE values are discussed later in this paper. 1.11 Table 2 shows the data that accompanies Figure 1; that is, ASE by aircraft type including the mean, lower and upper bounds, and standard deviation. -3- RMACG/9-WP/133 Figure 2: ASE by aircraft type for less common aircraft types ordered by median ASE.

  • Economic Development in the Kimberley Region of Western Australia: a History and Dependency Theory Perspective
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN QUEENSLAND Economic Development in the Kimberley Region of Western Australia: A History and Dependency Theory Perspective A dissertation submitted by Les Sharpe For the award of Doctor of Philosophy 2004 Abstract The focus of the research undertaken for this dissertation is the economic development of the Kimberley region of Western Australia. The period studied is, approximately, the one hundred years from 1900–2000. The region has many of the characteristics of an underdeveloped area and of a low income economy. This research used dependency theory as a framework for examining the causes of underdevelopment in the Kimberley. The development that occurred in the region during the relevant period has been catalogued by the creation of a database. This has enabled the collected information to be examined and manipulated in many ways. The database has allowed the detail of development in the Kimberley to be studied with respect to time, place and type of activity. This made it possible to examine the five hypotheses proposed by A. G. Frank which he considered likely to lead to fruitful research. The detailed study of these hypotheses would not have been possible in the way described without the database. It was found that dependency theory does help to explain and understand the development experience of the Kimberley region of Western Australia during the twentieth century. This was the clear and positive result of this study. The extension to Frank’s core dependency theory, the five hypotheses, were not found to be applicable to the Kimberley region nor supported by the data.

Photo by Geoff Goodall Grumman was confident that a twin-engined 10 to 15 seat amphibian would be in demand for post-war feeder airlines, despite the numbers of smaller Goose and Widgeon amphibians available. Design work on the G-73 Mallard commenced in December 1944 and the first Mallard flew in April 1946. Powered by reliable 600hp P&W R-1340 radials, it quickly gained a reputation as an oustanding aircraft respected by pilots and owners. The Mallard’s rugged construction confirmed Grumman’s wartime nickname Iron Works, allowing many Mallards to be rebuilt following serious damage on water or land. Competition from cheaper military disposals aircraft resulted in production being terminated at 59 Mallards (c/ns J-1 to J-59), all having civil careers except two sold new to the Egyptian Air Force Royal Flight. Experienced Alaskan bush pilot Fred Frakes first promoted the concept of re-engining Mallards with PT-6 turbines and commenced his first conversion in 1967. After much development and redesign, FAA certification of the Frakes G-73T Turbo Mallard was achieved. Frakes Aviation established a specialist overhaul and re-engining operation at Cleburne, Texas where 12 more Turbo Mallards were converted.

  • Qantas Group, Virgin Blue, Regional Aviation Association of Australia
    PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION INQUIRY INTO THE ECONOMIC REGULATION OF AIRPORT SERVICES SUBMISSION MADE BY MEMBERS OF THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY 21 April 2011 Introduction and purpose of joint submission This joint submission to the Productivity Commission’s inquiry into the economic regulation of airport services is made on behalf of the following airlines and airline representative bodies: • the Qantas Group; • Virgin Blue Airlines; • the Regional Aviation Association of Australia (RAAA); and • the Board of Airline Representatives Australia (BARA) (together, – the Airline Industry). A full list of parties that are represented by RAAA and BARA is attached. Each party to this submission has provided its own individual submission to the Productivity Commission Inquiry. This joint submission presents to the Productivity Commission the Airline Industry’s shared view that: • airports have market power and the ability and incentive to exercise that power; • as a result, there is an imbalance of bargaining power between airlines and airports, making commercial negotiations difficult; and • there is evidence of excessive pricing and inconsistent application of service standards by airports. Implementing appropriate economic regulation of airports is central to addressing these issues. The purpose of this joint submission is to present to the Productivity Commission a shared position on how the current regulatory regime should be enhanced in order to better facilitate constructive engagement and agreed commercial outcomes between airports and airlines. The Airline Industry remains committed to a process of constructive engagement between airports and airport users in Australia. While we support improvements to the current regime, there is no interest in re-regulating airport services and pricing, by introducing a requirement for regulatory approval of all changes to pricing.
