    NetLetter #1413 | May 12, 2019 AmeriJet N395AJ - Formerly Air Canada Fin 412 By Maarten Visser Welcome to the NetLetter, an Aviation based newsletter for Air Canada, TCA, CP Air, Canadian Airlines and all other Canadian based airlines that once graced the Canadian skies. The NetLetter is published on the second and fourth weekend of each month. If you are interested in Canadian Aviation History, and vintage aviation photos, especially as it relates to Trans-Canada Air Lines, Air Canada, Canadian Airlines International and their constituent airlines, then we're sure you'll enjoy this newsletter. Our website is located at www.thenetletter.net Please click the links below to visit our NetLetter Archives and for more info about the NetLetter. 1/25 ACFN/NetLetter News In NetLetter Issue 1412 we included a cartoon which attempted to take a humorous look at the Brexit debate in the U.K. Due to reference within the cartoon to the Boeing 737 Max aircraft, a few of our readers contacted us to advise that they considered this cartoon to be in poor taste and inappropriate. Upon reflection, we definitely agree that this cartoon was offensive and sincerely apologize to all of our readers for our lack of good judgement. The purpose of this publication is to honour those who have built the airline industry by reliving its history. We will do our best to remain focused on that goal. Thank you for your continued support of our efforts. It is very much appreciated. Your NetLetter Team Coming Events The World Airline Road Race (WARR) is being held in Amsterdam September 5-7, 2019.

  • CRREL Report 93-14
    CRREL REPORT 93-14 Malcolm Mellor Aviation Notes onAntarctic August1993 Abstract Antarctic aviation has been evolving for the best part of a century, with regular air operations developing over the past three or four decades. Antarctica is the last continent where aviation still depends almost entirely on expeditionary airfields and “bush flying,” but change seems imminent. This report describes the history of aviation in Antarctica, the types and characteristics of existing and proposed airfield facilities, and the characteristics of aircraft suitable for Antarctic use. It now seems possible for Antarctic aviation to become an extension of mainstream international aviation. The basic requirement is a well-distributed network of hard-surface airfields that can be used safely by conventional aircraft, together with good international collaboration. The technical capabilities al- ready exist. Cover: Douglas R4D Que Sera Sera, which made the first South Pole landing on 31 October 1956. (Smithsonian Institution photo no. 40071.)

  • Short SC.7 Skyvan
    Short SC.7 Skyvan The Short SC.7 Skyvan (nicknamed the "Flying Shoebox")[2] is a SC.7 Skyvan British 19-seat twin-turboprop aircraft manufactured by Short Brothers of Belfast, Northern Ireland. It is used mainly for short- haul freight and skydiving. The Short 330 and Short 360 are stretched models of the original SC.7, designed as regional airliners. Contents Design and development Operational history Skyvan at RAF Fairford, England Variants Role Utility aircraft Operators National origin United Kingdom Civilian operators Military operators Manufacturer Short Brothers Former military operators First flight 17 January 1963 Specification (Skyvan 3) Status Limited Service See also Produced 1963-1986 References Notes Number built 149 Bibliography Unit cost US$650,000 (1972)[1] Developed into Short 330 Design and development Short 360 In 1958, Shorts was approached by F.G. Miles Ltd (successor company to Miles Aircraft) which was seeking backing to produce a development of the H.D.M.106 Caravan design with a high aspect ratio wing similar to that of the Hurel-Dubois HD.31. Shorts acquired the design and data gathered from trials of the Miles Aerovan based H.D.M.105 prototype. After evaluating the Miles proposal, Shorts rejected the Caravan.[3] They developed their own design for a utility all-metal aircraft which was called the Short SC.7 Skyvan. The Skyvan is a twin-engined all-metal, high-wing monoplane, with a braced, high aspect ratio wing, and an unpressurised, square-section fuselage with twin fins and rudders.[4] It was popular with freight operators compared to other small aircraft because of its large rear door for loading and unloading freight.

Nine years ago, I wrote a document outlining a new aero engine. To see the Trent XWB take flight is my proudest moment. I was one of the four founding members of the Trent XWB team. In 2005, as Assistant Chief Engineer, I wrote a simple 10-page specification that was the first Memorandum of Understanding with Airbus. At the time, we felt something big was happening and we were right. Shaping those early ideas into something on an industrial scale has been an incredible challenge. But today, we have more than 2,000 people working on the programme. The impact on the business, as well as our relationship with Airbus, has been phenomenal. We have created the Trent XWB; the most advanced and efficient aero engine in the world.

  • Review of the Proposed Revisions to the Gasp
    APAC-AIG/2-WP/3 Agenda Item 2 International Civil Aviation Organization Second Meeting of the Asia Pacific Accident Investigation Group (APAC-AIG/2) (Hong Kong, China, 27-28 May 2014) Agenda Item 2 Report on recent accident/incident investigation related developments and activities DEVELOPING DATABASE FOR UNDERWATER SEARCH RESOURCES IN ASIA (Presented by France) SUMMARY This paper is proposing to develop a database of members of Accident Investigation Authorities (AIA) having experience of underwater search operations or owning underwater search equipment in Asia. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 The search for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH 370 is still continuing. There have, since 1969, been fifty-two accidents over water. However, thirty-eight of these occurred from 1996 onwards. Since 1 June 2009 and the accident of AF447, ten recorders have not been recovered from the eleven accidents over water including the ones from Malaysia Airlines Flight MH 370. 1.2 Underwater searches for Underwater Locator Beacon (ULB) signals have occurred almost twice a year since 1996. The list of past underwater recovery operations is included in the Appendix. There is a need to share experience and lessons learned from States that were recently involved in accidents. 1.3 One way to share experience is to create a database of members of Accident Investigation Authorities (AIA) having experience of underwater search operations, owning acoustic underwater search equipment or wishing to learn the best way to accomplish underwater searches for ULBs. 2. DISCUSSION 2.1 A list of potential tasks to be undertaken by a list of members of Accident Investigation Authorities (AIA) having experience of underwater search operations or owning underwater search equipment in Asia is detailed herewith.
