Write a 150-word paragraph referring to Module 6 PSA Flight 182 accident.
The crew of the PSA aircraft, the PSA pilots, and air traffic control personnel all made mistakes throughout the PSA flight 182
tragedy. Air traffic control instructed the Cessna's pilots to keep a particular heading, which they failed to do. Additionally, ATC
instructed the PSA flight crew to "Establish visual distance" from the traffic but did not inform them that visual contact had been
lost. The task of ensuring traffic separation was not completed by ATC. Despite having both planes on their radar, they were unable
to distinguish between them. They may have instructed the Cessna or PSA flight to turn or circle to create space. It is possible that
the crash may have been avoided if ATC had given the PSA crew a radar clearance.
Write a 150-word paragraph summarizing how radar systems will evolve in the future.
The modern radar systems under use are always changing. Due to the constant expansion in the number of planes in the air, this is
necessary for the aviation sector. Radar must now accurately detect and relay to air traffic control an increasing number of planes. I
anticipate that radar will advance so that it can detect aircraft even in the worst conditions and will become faster at detecting.
Additionally, I think that increasing the number of airplanes that a radar system will detect will be beneficial in the long run. Radars
used for air traffic control now monitor both airplanes and dangerous weather. The Doppler effect is used by contemporary air
traffic control radars to distinguish between moving and stationary targets and to calculate storm velocities. Finally, I anticipate that
they will develop new ways to spot satellites and other types of aircraft. Many industries use radar technology, including air traffic
control, remote sensing, satellites and spacecraft, radio telescopes, etc.
