Optimized Engine Out Procedures to Extend the Range of Jet Transport Airplanes
<p>The purpose of this study was to develop optimum engine-out procedures for the Boeing 747 and 767 on extended flights that will increase the range of the aircraft in case of engine failure. Theory suggests that an optimum amount of bank angle that will minimize drag resulting from asymmetric …

Microburst Recovery For Jet Transport Aircraft: A Comparison Between Constant And Variable Pitch Guidance Trajectories
<p>The purpose of this research was to compare, in a simulator, the safety of a variable pitch strategy with the established constant pitch strategy in transitioning through a microburst during an abort maneuver in the approach to landing phase of flight. In numerous mathematical and computer …

Jets, mixing, and topography in the Southern Ocean
… Circumpolar Current (or ACC), which is formed of jets (alternating velocity structures), thought to be significant surface transport barriers. The dynamical processes (particularly mixing processes) in the Southern Ocean are crucial to driving the global overturning circulation, which is in turn …

Degradation of Piloting Skills
… automated cockpits that are found in modern jet transport category aircraft, most of the tedious work of flying the aircraft solely by reference to raw data information from the airplane’s instruments is becoming a thing of the past. Pilots are no longer required to use their basic instrument …

Examining Unstable Approach Predictors Using Flight Data Monitoring Information
… of flight time, it represents 49% of commercial jet mishaps. One key to mitigating the risks involved in this flight segment is the stabilized approach. A stabilized approach requires meeting rigorous standards for many flight parameters as the aircraft nears landing. Exceeding any of these …

The effect of wing flexibility on ride comfort in formation flight
… were encountered during the analysis. The BAH jet transport wing was utilised in this study as it is widely recognised as a standard calibration case. This model was successfully implemented within a MATLAB/Simulink simulation environment. This paper presents the theoretical development of both …

Numerical investigation of air vehicle noise propagation effects
… by its application to the case of a conventional jet transport airplane, examining the effect of flow field and wing shielding on the near field noise levels. During the aforementioned noise investigation and analysis, results on Blade Wake Interaction (BWI) noise were also reached. Presently, the …
