to private pilots as opposed to air carrier and other commercial pilots. The arguments against such flexibility rotate around the thought that‚ in the event of a medical incapacitation‚ an air carrier or commercial pilot usually has another pilot on board who can take control of the aircraft and safely land. In contrast‚ the private pilot often has no such "safety net" and‚ therefore‚ a medical incapacitation is likely to have severe safety consequences. In the case of the private pilot‚ I think we

Abstract Helicopter operations and pilot training in a desert environment requires an aviator to understand the limitations of the aircraft and how visual aspects and personal stress contribute to the challenges of flying. The US Military gained a great deal of information both from the successes and from the failures of Desert Storm/Desert Shield resulting in advanced training and new technology. Desert Helicopter Operations: Military Specific A typical desert environment is unpredictable

During World War II‚ amphetamines were given to American and British pilots‚ sailors‚ tankers‚ scouts‚ as a means to relieve fatigue and to increase vigilance. German soldiers actively used methamphetamine ("Pervitin")‚ but only orally and in small doses. After the war‚ passion and widespread amphetamines began in Japan by US soldiers‚ then demobilized

Aircraft structures Abstract: The aircraft structure is an important part where the structure of an aircraft depends on the optimum requirement of the customer and the environments in which it will be going to fly for the major time. It has to go several checks at regular interval of flying hours under proper inspection. This paper contains the basic information regarding the components of an aircraft and the basic concept of its design. The main criteria of design and its philosophy is the

SLR cameras can be flown but their large heavy mirror designs are irrelavant in the air when the pilot is actually on the ground not using the mirror box.

The crash confused the minds of many‚ concerning a DC-10 would normally have no problem flying with only two of three engines. After a lengthy investigation‚ the details of the disaster were determined. The pilots had performed their duties properly‚ however‚ there were critical maintenance flaws causing the aircraft to fall from the sky. The first question was how the aircraft lost the left engine to begin with. The investigators discovered the aircraft’s

misunderstandings of a few words literally mean the difference between life and death? They can in the airline business. As pilots and air traffic controllers are invisible to one another‚ they cannot depend on visual cues to facilitate communications. Furthermore‚ while communicating they also process large amounts of visual information and perform other linguistic tasks- pilots communicating with other crew members‚ controllers with other flights and both groups monitoring their instruments.
