    Faulk, Scott (OST) From: Sanchez, Jessica <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, February 22, 2021 1:17 PM To: Faulk, Scott (OST) Cc: [email protected] Subject: EAS Kalaupapa: Request for Resident, Worker, and Political Support of Mokulele "Option A" CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the Department of Transportation (DOT). Do not click on links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Aloha Scott, My name is Jessica Sanchez, I am a worker/resident of the Kalaupapa/Molokai Community. I am also a grandchild of 5 patients of Kalaupapa. (3 Deceased, 2 living) The importance of this letter is not only for me but for my kupuna. I've been flying to Kalaupapa since the age of 4, I have seen many airlines throughout the years servicing Kalaupapa, my family and I have only seen 2 great airlines service(Molokai Air shuttle and Makani Kai Air) accommodate to the Kalaupapa Community, especially the Patients. Their prices were reasonable as well as a great time schedule, it was sad to see their business shutdown because another airline came in and out-bid them. This email is regarding the Essential Air Service for Kalaupapa. We hope that MOKULELE AIRLINES BY SOUTHERNAIRWAYS RECEIVES the EAS. It seems that the best Options for Kalaupapa would be OPTION A. These flights are very important to all community members of Kalaupapa residents/workers. Most of the workers down here are from Topside Molokai. It is also important that they have included Direct Flights to O'ahu for our Patients to be comfortable in-flight, especially with them getting up there in age.

  • Bakalářská Práce Lidský Faktor Jako Příčina Vzniku Letecké Nehody
    Vysoká škola regionálního rozvoje a Bankovní institut - AMBIS Katedra: Bezpečnosti a práva BAKALÁŘSKÁ PRÁCE LIDSKÝ FAKTOR JAKO PŘÍČINA VZNIKU LETECKÉ NEHODY Autor: Karel Novotný Bezpečnostní management v regionech Vedoucí práce: Ing. Magdaléna Náplavová, Ph.D. Brno 2019 Poděkování Za cenné rady, náměty a inspiraci bych rád poděkoval Ing. Magdaléně Náplavové Ph.D. a kolegovi Ing. Tomášovi Chlebečkovi, Ph.D. za čas, trpělivost a energii, kterou mi ochotně věnoval při konzultacích. Anotace Bakalářská práce se zabývá problematikou leteckých nehod způsobených selháním lidského faktoru. Ačkoliv byl člověk vždy nejvýznamnějším činitelem v řetězci událostí vedoucích k leteckému neštěstí, teprve v poslední době se objevují snahy tento problém správně pojmenovat a navrhnout funkční protiopatření. Teoretická část pojednává o příčinách lidského selhání a popisuje nově vyvinutý systém, který si klade za cíl toto selhání správně pochopit a analyzovat. Praktická část je tvořena kompletním výčtem a následnou analýzou leteckých nehod spadajících do vymezené kategorie civilního dopravního letectví, které se staly v letech 2013 - 2017. Závěr práce obsahuje některá řešení, která mohou napomoci ke snížení negativního vlivu lidského faktoru jako příčiny největšího počtu leteckých katastrof. Klíčová slova Bezpečnost, CRM, ICAO, Katastrofa, Letadlo, Letecká nehoda, Letová posádka, Lidský faktor, Pilotní kabina, Rozhodovací proces, Únava. Annotation The bachelor thesis deals with the issue of air accidents caused by human factor failure. Although man has always been the most important actor in the chain of events leading to air disaster, there have been recent attempts to name this problem and propose functional countermeasures. The theoretical part deals with the causes of human failure and describes a newly developed system, which aims to understand and analyze this failure correctly.

  • DOT Oversight of EAS Unsubsidized Carriers^05-19-21.Pdf
    DOT Appropriately Relied on Unsubsidized Carriers in Accordance With Its Policy but Conducted Limited Oversight of the Essential Air Service Communities They Serve Report No. AV2021024 May 19, 2021 DOT Appropriately Relied on Unsubsidized Carriers in Accordance With Its Policy but Conducted Limited Oversight of the Essential Air Service Communities They Serve Mandated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Reauthorization Act of 2018 Office of the Secretary of Transportation | AV2021024] | May 19, 2021 What We Looked At The Airline Deregulation Act of 1978 (ADA) gave airlines the freedom to determine which markets to serve and what fares to charge. However, it also raised concerns that communities with relatively low traffic levels might lose service entirely if carriers shifted their operations to larger, potentially more lucrative markets. Through the Essential Air Service (EAS) Program, the Department of Transportation (DOT) determines the requirements for each eligible community and subsidizes air carriers when necessary. In 2018, Congress directed our office to determine whether DOT was providing sufficient oversight of the unsubsidized air carriers providing basic essential air service. Accordingly, our objectives were to evaluate whether DOT (1) appropriately relied on unsubsidized air carriers for small communities and (2) conducted oversight of the services provided by those air carriers. What We Found DOT appropriately relied on unsubsidized air carriers in accordance with its policy. Specifically, if an air carrier proposed to provide air service without a subsidy and the Department determined the carrier could reliably do so, DOT relied on the carrier’s service as proposed. Federal law does not require DOT to consider community views when it relies on unsubsidized carriers, and the Department did not prescribe specific content for their proposals.

    Order 2020-12-11 Served: December 14, 2020 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON, D.C. Issued by the Department of Transportation on the 14th day of December, 2020 Essential Air Service at KALAUPAPA, HAWAII DOCKET DOT-OST-2000-6773 Under 49 U.S.C. § 41731 et seq. ORDER REQUESTING PROPOSALS AND PROHIBITING TERMINATION OF SERVICE Summary By this Order, the Department of Transportation (the Department) is requesting proposals, with or without subsidy, from air carriers interested in providing Essential Air Service (EAS) at Kalaupapa, Hawaii for a contract term beginning February 1, 2021. Air carriers should file their proposals by no later than January 19, 2021. Southern Airways Express LLC d/b/a Mokulele Airlines (Mokulele) is currently providing subsidy-free EAS at Kalaupapa. In the event that the Department does not secure another air carrier to provide EAS at Kalaupapa before January 23, 2021, the Department, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 41734(b), is prohibiting Mokulele from terminating EAS at Kalaupapa for the 30-day period from January 23, 2021 through February 21, 2021, or until the date on which another air carrier begins EAS at Kalaupapa, whichever occurs earlier. Background Kalaupapa was determined previously to be an EAS-eligible community by virtue of 49 U.S.C. § 41731(a)(1)(D), having received subsidized EAS between September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2011. Kalaupapa continued to receive subsidized EAS thereafter. By Order 2018-3-3 (March 16, 2018), however, the Department (1) indicated that it would rely on Mokulele1 to provide subsidy-free EAS at Kalaupapa, and (2) terminated the air carrier-selection case at Kalaupapa.
