and operation of aviation hardware ranging through aircraft, airports and air traffic control facilities and equipment. Human operational errors can come about when workloads exceed work ability, e.g., in stressful situations. In aviation, working capacity primarily depends on the ability to receive, select, process and distribute information on an on-line and basis in the control of individual aircraft or air traffic. In the same study Fedja and Milan (2008), it is defined as an incorrect…

to avoid the storm. The request was denied due to air traffic. Flight 2 then requested a clearance of 1,000 ft. “on top”, meaning that it would allow a clearance of 1,000 ft. above said air traffic, and was granted permission to ascend. At 9:59 a.m. Flight 2 sent out a call stating it had passed Lake Mohave and would pass the Painted Desert at 10:31. This would be the last radio…

the problem. Looking at the scope of the problem, the statistics from NHTSA claims that “ in 2012, 10,322 were killed in alcohol-impaired-driving-crashes. These alcohol-impaired-driving fatalities accounted for 31 percent of the total motor vehicle traffic fatalities in the united states” (NHTSA, Dec, 2013). Not only is the magnitude of the issue problematic but also the scope of it as…

Controller-Pilot Data Link Communications: Hazardous or Helpful? Communication is the key to everything. Every facet of our lives is determinate on communication. No more is that true than in the world of aviation. The complex web of flights over the world dwarfs in comparison to the volume of communication that the aviation field uses. Communication between ground control, airplane to airplane, and maintenance hubs make up this network of information. The information that flows through the…

i. What are the exceptions to the revenue diversion prohibition: There are five exceptions to the prohibition – two grandfather exceptions and three special purpose exceptions. They are described below.

including the buildings, facilities and equipment dedicated in whole or in part, for the use of aircraft when they arrive or leave, or they move on the surface. Airport facilities: Runway / runway - corridor - the parking aircraft - Control Tower - Air Traffic Control Center -…

Global Hawk System Safety UAVs are a rapidly growing part of the aerospace world. Though they have mainly been utilized in military functions, the continued development of UAVs is leading toward civilian application in addition to continued military use. The use of UAVs in commercial environments brings with it a new set of safety risks which must be investigated, analyzed, and mitigated in order to ensure safe operation in the national airspace system (NAS). (Lum & Waggoner, 2011.) This paper…

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…

challenging if one has not studied for it and impossible one is not familiar with aeronautical knowledge like weather sources and official radio communication procedures that even commercial drone pilots will be required to use in order to call air traffic control…

Yuanyuan Yu ENG110 – 39 Library Research Report March 30, 2015 Entry 1: Research question: “What kind human errors do exist in aviation accidents?” Douglas A. Wiegmann and Scott A. Shappell made a complete description of the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System. In this book, it analyzes various kinds of human errors happened in aircraft accidents, including the mistakes of operators and crews. In the chapter of “Human Error and Aviation Accidents”, the author gave database about…
