Book Synopsis Safety Management Systems in Aviation by : Alan J. Stolzer
Download or read book Safety Management Systems in Aviation written by Alan J. Stolzer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although aviation is among the safest modes of transportation in the world today, accidents still happen. In order to further reduce accidents and improve safety, proactive approaches must be adopted by the aviation community. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has mandated that all of its member states implement Safety Management System (SMS) programs in their aviation industries. While some countries (the United States, Australia, Canada, members of the European Union and New Zealand, for example) have been engaged in SMS for a few years, it is still non-existent in many other countries. This unique and comprehensive book has been designed as a textbook for the student of aviation safety, and as an invaluable reference tool for the SMS practitioner in any segment of aviation. It discusses the quality management underpinnings of SMS, the four components, risk management, reliability engineering, SMS implementation, and the scientific rigor that must be designed into proactive safety. The authors introduce a hypothetical airline-oriented safety scenario at the beginning of the book and conclude it at the end, engaging the reader and adding interest to the text. To enhance the practical application of the material, the book also features numerous SMS in Practice commentaries by some of the most respected names in aviation safety. In this second edition of Safety Management Systems in Aviation, the authors have extensively updated relevant sections to reflect developments since the original book of 2008. New sections include: a brief history of FAA initiatives to establish SMS, data-driven safety studies, developing a system description, SMS in a flight school, and measuring SMS effectiveness.

Book Synopsis GPS Autopilot and Flight Director Systems by : Bruce Bessette
Download or read book GPS Autopilot and Flight Director Systems written by Bruce Bessette and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Section 1 GPS Systems This section introduces the technician to the history and system design of the Global Positioning System. This section will emphasize the operations and frequencies broadcasted from the satellites and how those frequencies are modulated. Section 2 GPS Installations This section is the portion that covers the onboard equipment. From early non-approved models to the new TSO approved units today, this section will cover the type of installations and how certain aircraft will use the position information. Section 3 Flight Management Systems Section three is a review of aircraft Flight Management Systems (FMS). GPS systems only have one job; to find the location of the aircraft as accurately as possible. Before this technology the aircraft location on a map would have to be plotted, then the progress of the aircraft's flight continuously updated by hand by the pilot. The task of monitoring of all aspects of the process of flying and navigating an aircraft by the pilot can be called flight management. The advance of GPS technology has brought to the cockpit ability to plot on a moving map the exact location of the aircraft. Section 4 Aircraft Documentation This section builds on Section 3 GPS installer. Aircraft that are required to maintain their airworthiness must have documentation that proves that work. This section covers documents types such as the variously; Aircraft Equipment List, Weight and Balance document, FAA Form 337 for record major alterations and the Approved Flight Manual. This section describes what approved data that can be used to alter an aircraft and how that record information be included in the FAA Form 337 is. Section 5 Aircraft Fundamentals This section is designed to cover the basic of aircraft construction and operations. The reason for this section to help provide an understanding how an Autopilot system interfaces with the parts of the aircraft structure. An autopilot system will need to mimic the actions and controls of the pilot and technicians will need to understand what the system is doing. Section 6 Introduction to Autopilots This section covers the history of autopilots in aircraft and what they are expected to do for the pilots. First describing the three basic channels and the systems and control they move. Then the individual controls and components are covered to include how those components connect to the aircraft systems. Section 7 Testing the Autopilot This part the book is designed to correspond with the Autopilot Installers part of the course. At the lab section of this course, the student is expected to install and test a basic general aviation autopilot system. This section goes over how the specific systems operate and how the technician is to test and certify the new installation. Section 8 Air Carrier Auto Flight Systems This section covers more advanced autopilot systems that can be found in large air carrier aircraft. Starting with the analog Boeing 727 system students will learn how to turn on, engage and test a large aircraft autopilot system in all its various modes. Section 9 Flight Director Systems This section covers the system that assists pilot with visual cues when flying an aircraft. Starting with the Attitude Director Indicator to the FMS Mode Annunciation panel technicians will understand how the information is presented to the pilot and how to simulate the inputs to test the system. Section 10 Automated Engine Controls This last section covers those automated mechanical and electronic systems used to monitor and control modern jet engines. Beginning with the Engine Electronic Control (EEC) and ending the Full Authority Digital Engine Control System (FADEC) technicians will be introduced into the operation and monitoring of these throttle controls.
