Perth Airport

Airport security was being rather slow as I braced myself for the thirteen hour plane flight I was about to partake in. As I took my shoes off and placed my laptop and phone in a small grey bin, thoughts of the lush green scenery and breathtaking architecture rushed through my mind. I was so excited to see my mom and family I was almost jumping out of my seat. Despite my eagerness my mind dozed off into sleep. When I awoke we were making our final decent into Athens National Airport or as they call

I. Summary There are many airports in the United States that have noise problems. The noise problems come into account when the airport flight patterns are over residential areas and congested business areas. Tampa is ranked the 29th largest airport in the United States (Tampa International Airport, 2016). Tampa International is expanding and due to construction that started last year, flight will fly a different pattern over residential areas (Hammett, Tampa airport construction will reroute

As the airplane ascends towards its cruising altitude, I look out the window as the thrusters propel the plane towards the ocean. It is July, but the cabin is cold, and the hairs on my arms stand up in unison. The smells of fifty colognes and air freshener overtake my senses. To my left is the concrete jungle I have inhabited during half of my life. To my right a vast blue expanse that leads to España. I feel that I am in limbo, neither in the United States or España. As every summer and Christmas

Different rules apply for Part 121, Part 135, and Part 91 federal regulations when it comes to pilot duty day limits. Part 121 refers to air carriers such as regional and major airlines. Part 135 refers to commuter and on-demand operations such as corporate and government flights. Part 91 refers to general aviation such as small aircraft and weekend flyers. Should flight time and rest time requirements be different between these parts? Part 121 is the most stringent when it comes to pilot flight

still seems unimaginable. As most Americans know, the Federal Government has implemented a huge amount of change to our foreign and domestic policies as a result of 9/11. The most noticeable of these in our everyday lives can be seen in our nation’s airports. Huge amounts of money and resources have been spent to help make sure that such a travesty will never

after departing from JFK international airport in New York. All 230 passengers died. A bomb planted on board and a missile fired at the plane are two theories surrounding the mystery behind flight 800. Even though there has been many investigations that have come up with reasonable conclusions about the mysterious explosion of flight 800, there are still many theories on what people think really happened. After taking off from Kennedy International airport, Flight 800 a TWA boeing 747 exploded in

For my General Aviation Value Analysis the parameters I used were what was specified from the parameters to consider. The two trips that were calculated both had 4 colleagues in every single calculation. The first trip is from Portland, Oregon to Calgary, Alberta. This is about 548 flight miles. The second trip is from Portland, Oregon to Jacksonville, Florida. This is about 2427 flight miles. For both, the cost of a business aircraft vs. commercial aircraft was compared. Every single trip will take

Six years, the pilot thought to himself. It has been six years since I was drafted into that horrible, bloody war. Six years since I’ve been in London. Six long years since I’ve seen my Mary. But today’s the day that I get to see her again. Today’s the day that I can hold her in my arms again and make good on the promise that I would return. Today’s that day. I hope she’s okay… His thoughts were cut short as his train slowed to a stop. He exited the train to see the ruins of London, its

If this is one of the more advanced airports, how can FOD be prevented in this type of environment? Multi-million dollar C-17 cargo aircrafts are transiting through these airfields daily. Although this is not strictly related to military operations, the National Aerospace FOD

The rise of mass transit in the beginning seemed like a great idea everything did seem to go well and it really benefited the majority of Americans. Many people used mass transit as a faster efficient way to get around that they had never seen before. Electric trolleys as started in the article “The Rise and Fall of mass transit” were the start of the urban expansion that came about. At the time real estate owners and transit owners developed a good system to ensure economic development in the cities
