A New Guidance System For Aircraft Based On Gps, Mukul Mishra
A New Guidance System For Aircraft Based On Gps, Mukul Mishra
Doctoral Dissertations and Master's Theses
The navigation displays commonly used in aircraft (Course Deviation Indicators), provide only the offset from desired track, leaving the pilot to figure out steering correction necessary to get back on track. This correction, determined by trial and error, adds to the workload, especially in windy conditions. The feasibility of using a new algorithm for providing guidance to the pilots for improved interception and tracking is examined in this thesis. The proposed system employs GPS to calculate the offset from the track as well as the instantaneous ground speed vector, to provide steering information. Thus, precise tracking is possible in real …
Controlling Lead Exposure During The Process Of Cleaning Aviation Spark Plugs, Curtis E. Beers
Controlling Lead Exposure During The Process Of Cleaning Aviation Spark Plugs, Curtis E. Beers
Doctoral Dissertations and Master's Theses
This study examines the process of removing lead bromide from aircraft spark plugs and the health hazards associated with the present method of cleaning the lead bromide accumulation from aviation spark plugs. Aviation maintenance technicians can be inadvertently exposed to lead while cleaning the lead bromide accumulation from the spark plug electrode during scheduled engine maintenance.
This study explores controlling the lead bromide particulate matter after it is removed from the spark plug electrode. Various control methods and/or procedural changes that may be employed to control the spread of lead bromide dust throughout the shop environment and the prevention of …
Aviation Safety And Security: A Call For Educating The Flying Public, Mariann Elizabeth Abbonizio
Aviation Safety And Security: A Call For Educating The Flying Public, Mariann Elizabeth Abbonizio
Doctoral Dissertations and Master's Theses
Aviation safety and security: A call for educating the flying public, is an account and testimonial to the problem of the lack of aviation safety and security knowledge by the flying public in the National Airspace System (NAS). It discusses the confusion over both new (post 9-11-01) and old (pre 9-11-01) security regulations as well as basic passenger safety recommendations and advice that could possibly save hundreds of lives. It will discuss the need for a public education campaign regarding aviation safety and security for the American flying public, and point to past public educational campaigns in different realms as …
