issues surrounding the problem, and its impact on the U.S. Navy Sailors. Finally, it will conclude with a recommended course of action. Problem Commercially derived aircraft maintenance manuals are created with the intention of being used by a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certified Airframe and Power Plant (A&P) mechanic. The standard Navy technical manual system is an antiquated technical training system based on criteria established by the Center for Naval

Becoming an Airline Pilot If you have a love for the sky and aviation is one of your interests, you're not deterred from being in charge of at times more than 100 lives, and you have a soft spot for exploring the world than becoming an airline pilot is for you. Airline pilots have one of the coolest, most exciting nerve racking jobs out there. My goal for this paper is to explain all about how to become an airline pilot, what it takes to become one, the facts about the job, and some pros and cons

Since 2000, out of all the fatal accidents aviation accidents, 75% of them were caused because of human error according to the NTSB. Human errors can occur in three different ways say Ramón L. Rivera. He states in the article, Managing Human Error, “1. A person intends to carry out an action, does so correctly, the action is appropriate, and the desired goal is achieved. No error has occurred. 2. A person intends to carry out an action, does so correctly, the action is inappropriate, and the desired

Since the very beginning of air travel, the Federal Aviation Administration’s National Air Traffic Control (ATC) system has kept passengers safe and moved people and goods with unmatched efficiency, and it has continually evolved to meet the needs of the aviation industry. However, many have sought to hand over control of the ATC system to a private entity, separate from the FAA, dominated by the airlines, and unaccountable to the public. The latest of these effort comes in the form of a renewed

There are technologies being discussed to improve crash location technologies. They are improvements to the ULB battery life, an additional low frequency ULB. Another technology is ADS-B which monitors aircraft position. Crash deployable flight recorders are also being considered as well as streaming flight data via a satellite. Let’s us take a closer look at each technology. There are several improvements to ULB technology in progress. ULB Battery Life is in the process of being extended
