While the advancements in electric propulsion have been important, the gains in electrical energy storage have also been crucial. Lithium-polymer (Li–Po) batteries have revolutionized the hobby industry due to their higher energy densities over lead-acid and nickel-metal-hydride batteries [50]. In...
In order to understand this subject and the years of research that has gone into it by the Command developers it might be a good idea to look at how aircraft ready times and logistics modeling have evolved from the initial computer version of Harpoon to the very latest CMANO upgrade.Harpoon ...
ADS-B is prone to failure due to intentional or unintentional illegal interference, which in turn leads to interruption of flight monitoring, thereby increasing the risk of accidents. Through accurate trajectory prediction, real-time data can be provided when ADS-B fails, which can immediately stren...
JA804A September 25, 2014 The objective of the investigation conducted by the Japan Transport Safety Board in accordance with the Act for Establishment of the Japan Transport Safety Board (and with Annex 13 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation) is to prevent future accidents and ...
growing airline fleets, and a heightened focus on passenger experience. Additionally, the market is segmented by type, end user, aircraft type, seat class, and component, with North America anticipated to hold the largest market share due to the presence of major aircraft manufacturers and supplie...
but deemed to be within safe range. The crash due to ice resulted in the deaths of five people, including both pilots. Clearly, had the flight operators been more cautious about the icing, the crash would have been avoided. Don't be cavalier when it comes to cold weather flying and icin...
confident in their flying abilities. Both were night current. Both were flying on hazy nights, there was no moon, there were no visible stars. At the time of the accidents there were no ground lights in sight. These are conditions that require reference solely to the aircraft’s instruments...
It is of interest to note that the Wright Flyer featured two counter-rotating propellers, although this was due to the nature of the single-engine drive train. Asymmetric thrust would not have been an issue—engine failure stopped both propellers. Among other aircraft that feature this option ar...
Some aircraft classes are defined in a very narrow design space (for example twin turboprops for regional transport), while others (V/STOL vehicles, both military and civil utility) show scattered operation points, also due to the more complexpropulsion systems. The latter vehicles are not consid...
