future of global aviation, and making the aviation industry more competitive, increasing profitability and reviewing sustainability. It is important because the aviation industry has seemed to have times of success, but also times of struggle. The problem is best summarized by “Mr Bisignani said that the time had come to chart a long-term strategy for the industry to break out of its constant cycle of 'feast and famine ' which had caused it to lose some US$50 billion in the 2001-2010 decade” (Sreenivasan, 2011). Solving the problem would result in improved profitability to the aviation industry and sustainable. Literature Review Previous research in this area has shown areas for potential improvement include research into; sustainability, future technologies, law and policy changes, and how aviation changing on a global scales drives the need for both partnerships on a global scale, but also being competitive as individual aviation business entities. Pros from sources include initiatives showing not just the private sector, but…

The Decline of General Aviation Airports The Rise of General Aviation In the early days of aviation, aviators were limited to flying during daylight hours, in near ideal weather conditions. Early pilots were not regulated as they are today, and would take off and land their aircraft in any flat open area, often a farmer’s grassy field, which allowed them to choose their direction relative to the prevailing winds. As aviation grew, pilots began to congregate in common areas, which allowed for…

The aviation accident investigations concentrate on improving safety. The reviews of the scientific and technical developments that have remained the driving force for the enhancing safety have gone beyond the scale of the present undertaking. Earlier legislations concentrated on aircraft impact on the ground and not safety on board. The first air regulation took place on 23 April 1784 (Bibel 23). The regulation prohibited balloons frying without a special license. The regulation gave the…

In today’s aviation world, aircraft are designed with multiple systems to aid aircrew with all aspects of flight; however, the only factor that aircraft manufacturers can’t eliminate is the integration of human error. “Human errors represent the mental or physical activities of individuals that fail to achieve their intended outcome”*. In order to properly predict human error factors we must first understand some factors that make up human error, such as “fatigue” and “situational stress”.…

exhaustion. The aptness of each flight crew entangles both cargo and passengers operators alike, the Board members of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the pilots it regulates. A secondary audience would include the general flying public. This paper raises the subsequent inquiry: What impact does crew fatigue place on the aviation industry in terms of safety as well as cost? Then, what course of action can we take to improve safety and shrink costs associated with…

Aviation professionals need to strict qualifications, attributes, and ethics. Before I go over the four basic. What is interesting to find out is the qualifications that Aviation professionals go through is expensive, but need when dealing with billion dollar aircraft or safety of customers. Aviation professionals also need certain attributes when dealing with integrity, flexibility etc when dealing with a time consuming career, and last I will talk about certain ethics in the workplace. …

Every day, millions of passengers depart to their desired destination traveling by plane. It is not abnormal to see passengers go on a plane frequently because of the reliability and added safety compared to a car on the freeway. When families go on vacation that is not domestic, they trust aviation to reach their destination. The importance of safety that makes these planes so trustworthy is an item that cannot be achieved by anything on the ground. Countless people think planes already have…

Fox examines the “flying fortress,” the aircraft that was used to “deliver destruction on a scale never previously witnessed” in Hiroshima and Nagasaki (50). In time of peace, Fox examines the use of airplanes by terrorists. Attacks “such as the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, or the events of 11 September 2001” (63). Fox believed that 9/11 would be the start of a new era. An era to evaluate this new threat (66). It is crucial to evaluate this threat. Joseph S. Szyliowicz, a…

other than the Civil Aeronautics Act. This act gave power to the Civil Aeronautics Board, or CAB, to regulate the airline industry. This regulation has been the most impactful decision possibly ever in the industry. Since then, the airline industry has been regulated, deregulated, and is facing the possibility of reregulation. Each change has benefits and disadvantages that affect all of those involved with the aviation industry. With the regulation that was initiated with the CAB, there were…

Most people who get into the airplane draw in their minds what will happen if the airplane crashed , what will cause the airplane to crash or what safety items this aircraft have in the case of any problem. “Aviation safety is a term encompassing the theory, investigation, and categorization of flight failures, and the prevention of such failures through regulation, education, and training.” (Aviation safety, 2015) If we search in the internet for the aviation safety hazards we will have…
