Database Driven Organisations To initiate about databases, they are valuable across the world by people as individuals or predominantly by businesses for various reasons in which I will evaluate below. The title derives from incorporating any amounts of data from small to large scaled into a base, a base is a foundation that brings this data into one area (usually software) for ease of access, management, processing and locating in an organised manner.

Boeing Model 367-80, known as the “Dash 80”, was the precursor to the Boeing 707, the first commercially successful jet airliner. The 707, and by extension the “Dash 80”, thrusted Boeing into the upper echelon of commercial airline manufacturers, where it remains to this day. In addition, it is responsible for shifting commercial aviation from a propeller focused industry to the jet engine industry. This shift enabled the airline industry to exponentially grow by increasing passenger numbers and…

Pan Am Flight 299, August 3rd 1970 (Suarez). A man approaches a flight attendant and states that he wants to go to Cuba, he then pulls out a gun and bottle that he says is filled with explosives, and threatens to set them off if he does not go to the cockpit. The Premier of Cuba, Fidel Castro, was waiting when the plane landed at Havana’s airport. The only people to exit the aircraft were Captain Augustus Watkins and the Hijacker. Castro tours the exterior of the plane for around 40 minutes,…

If one was to look into the sky today, there would more than likely b an aircraft of some sort flying above. While many of us take no consideration as to the immense amount of technology put into each and every aircraft, just to fly, there are individuals, still working every day to create new technology that makes what used to seem like just a farfetched dream, a reality. Even over one hundred years after the first powered flight in 1903, new frontiers of flight, are yet to be discovered. The…

stolen blueprints, they were able to create a better aircraft that was able to fly 1,060 mph and reach roughly 15,500 feet in altitude. Astonishingly, out of the Avro Arrows 120 built, only one survives, though unable to make another flight. These jets had their beginnings when engineers continued to build stronger, better aircrafts for the oncoming war. Unbeknownst to a group of engineers, the government was well on their way to creating their aircrafts,…

On September 11, 2001, four airline planes were hijacked, resulting in about 3,000 deaths and 6,000 injuries. As two planes ran into the World Trade Center in New York City, one jet flew into the Pentagon as the fourth plane was headed towards Washington D.C. Responsible for the countless deaths on that Tuesday morning was Osama bin Laden followed by his Islamic terrorist group, Al-Qaeda, and no one else (Elizabeth Purdy 12). Countless conspiracy theories come to life after impacting events…

WWII has impacted us in many different factors such as in politics, there have been many worldwide organisations that have been sprung since WWII ended. An example is the United Nations who are committed in maintaining peace around the globe. One huge factor that has changed society is the social aspects of WWII, since men went off to war women were left to replace men and do their jobs, this led to authorities believing that women could do the same jobs as men. Another factor that has impacted…

ABSTRACT This Term Paper is all about the review of the book ‘21st CENTURY JET, THE MAKING OF THE BOEING 777’ by ‘Karl Sabbagh’. It includes the comments regarding how the decision of making a new plane emerged and how it determined the market status of Boeing in the Airliner field. This paper mainly focused on the history and introduction of Boeing 777 to airlines and its manufacturing process through its logistics and supply chain network and also specified the supply chain practices used in…

In 2014, airliners paid $223.6 billion on aviation fuel alone (Cros, 2015). The small fluctuation in the price of oil can have a dramatic impact on firms’ margins. An increase of one percent in jet fuel prices translates to $530 million for the US airline industry (Baazargan, Lange, Tran, & Zhou, 2013, p. 55). Many airliners are actively trying to mitigate this unpredictability. Many carriers are now employing hedging…
