Air Cargo as a Different Business Unit
<p>By combining cargo and passenger operations under the same business, airlines are facing an operational conflict with respect to the cargo operation, which has always been perceived as a by-product and not as an essential revenue generating activity; This fact leads to poor product quality, weak …

Analysis of air cargo transport systems using stochastic simulation
A major problem associated with air cargo transport is the assignment and scheduling of aircraft to routes that include several transloading points. This problem is complicated by the fact that shipping quantities vary at each terminal from one day to the next, and there are often wide fluctuations …

Value proposition analysis for medium- and heavy- lift cargo unmanned aircraft systems
The majority of current unmanned aircraft system (UAS) research is focusing on small UAS operations at low altitude over rural and underpopulated areas. There is a gap in research about UAS greater than 55 pounds. The first unmanned aircraft to operate in this airspace is likely to be unmanned air …
