Aeronautical Engineering My long-standing fascination with aircrafts began with my favourite toy helicopter. Since then I have made a model plane of a radio controlled spitfire Mk2 and managed to fly it. My fascination has been followed up with literature and resources; further developing my understanding and interests in the architecture of an aircraft. Books such as ’The Aerospace Chronology’ provided some insight into technological advances that have produced safer‚ faster and more agile planes

merged with Southeast Airlines to create the fourth largest U.S. carrier in which it inherited both an aging fleet of Boeing 727-300 aircraft and Stephen Ruth. As the new president of the airline‚ Stephen’s first concern is to create a financially solid company since it is a common presumption for airline industries that maintenance costs rise with the age of aircrafts. He noticed that there have been significant differences in the reported B727-300 maintenance costs (from ATA Form 41s) both in the

The developed cost function estimates the unit flight cost for different sizes of aircraft and it is derived from the data covering airline operating cost in the period from 2007 to 2009‚ (Aircraft commerce‚ No.51‚ No.57 and No.64). The total number of different aircraft whose flight unit costs are used for getting the unit cost curve amounts to 27. This set includes different types of aircraft‚ both in terms of seat capacity (50 to 520 seats)‚ and in terms of range (short-‚ mid- and long-distance)
