discuss‚ analyse and critical evaluate on the incident of aircraft Boeing 737-400 with flight registration number G-OBMM near Daventry on 23 February 1995. This assignment will be base on the report of Air Accident Investigation Branch (AAIB)‚ Department of Transport with report number 3/96 (EW/C95/2/3). This aircraft incident has been choose because of the report provided by AAIB was clear with the sequences of incident‚ information of the aircraft operator and the Authority‚ complete with clear finding

and prevented from collapsing completely by means of a leaf spring. In some cases complete collapsing is prevented by its own rigidity. The capsule is mounted inside a case. The case is fed with static pressure from aircraft static tube/ vent. As the aircraft climbs the static pressure in the case decreases allowing the spring to pull the capsule faces apart. If the aircraft descends the rise in pressure in the case compresses the capsule faces. The linear movement of the capsule face is magnified

1 Contemporary Methods of Aircraft Construction and Design The construction of aircraft is a complicated process requiring precise calculation and innovative design in order to improve and maintain the structural integrity of the aircraft. Aerospace engineers must find a balance between reliability‚ strength and weight of the many components used in the fabrication of the aircraft. The design of an aircraft must take into account the magnitude of forces‚ such as lift and drag‚ acting upon the

tragedy in Irkutsk is due only to Russian disorder: such a catastrophe could have taken place in any country and involved any aircraft. This is proved by the statistics. Hundreds of planes crash during landing or take-off claiming the lives of hundreds of passengers in many counties in Asia‚ Africa‚ Europe‚ and America. What is happening? Experts believe that today’s aircraft are designed the way that a man’s error is inevitable in an emergency situation. Obviously‚ no constructor can ackowledge the

The Importance of the Aircraft Carrier in Defense of the United States of America The aircraft carrier has been around in various forms since the First World War. Its emergence as the key denominator of naval power is legendary‚and its continuing prestige in this role is even yet spawning building programs among established and growing navies. The aircraft carrier is the largest and most complex of all warships and in most cases the most expensive. In addition to the cost of the ship itself

Aircraft Design Project Introduction You have designed a launch vehicle to insert a satellite into orbit . You now need a means to transport that satellite from your factory to the launch site. A cargo jet aircraft is the most likely candidate‚ though it may have to be unusual in size and shape because of the weight and shape envelope of the satellite design. Speed is not critically important but range is. Since the aerospace industry has become truly an international business it would be advisable
