Book excerpt: Air shows are high-risk activities that must be conducted with careful thought towards the general public, spectators, and flying and nonflying participants to ensure that the activity is as safe as reasonably possible. The impromptu, ad hoc, unrehearsed or unplanned must never be attempted. This book offers a holistic overview of the state of safety, including safety cultural variables, safety risk parameters, and human performance factors, in the international air show community. This book aims to close the knowledge gap on safety management in air shows. It imparts to the aviation sector and other high-risk and high-performance industries the experience and knowledge that airshow performers have gained regarding risk assessment, psychological aspects, and mindfulness techniques used for safe and effective performances. The book highlights how resilient safety culture can change the air show community's mentality to deliver safer and more spectacular air show events and promotes the culture of excellence that the air show community is wedded to. The reader will obtain a thorough understanding of safety issues in air shows. Air Show Performers: Safety, Risk Management, and Psychological Factors is a critical read for professionals within the international air show community including nonflying participants. Its appeal extends to practitioners in aviation, health and safety and events management. “[...] For sure, this book will become a reference and a source of inspiration for future generations of Display Pilots.” Jacques Bothelin, French Aerobatic Jet Team Leader, Honorary Board Member European Airshow Council Manolis Karachalios was the Hellenic Air Force’s F-16 Demo Team “ZEUS” Display Pilot for the 2010–2012 display seasons.

Download or read book D-Day written by Nicholas A. Veronico and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-06-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Those who witnessed it never forgot it: the great armada of Allied ships that filled the English Channel on D-Day, June 6, 1944. From battleships, cruisers, and destroyers down to the much smaller landing ships and landing craft, these nearly 7,000 vessels bombarded the Normandy coast, ferried men, tanks, and equipment across the channel, and landed 150,000 troops—under withering German fire—on Omaha, Utah, Gold, Juno, and Sword beaches in a single day. In numbers and scope, it was the largest seaborne invasion in history. Meanwhile, some 12,000 aircraft flew above the sea, a dizzying assortment of fighters and bombers, transports, recon craft, and gliders. Taking off from air fields in England, they dropped thousands of paratroopers and even vehicles, bombed roads and German positions miles inland, provided vital intelligence, and attacked any German planes that were able to take to the skies. It was the largest single-day aerial operation in history. And yet these important—and impressive—aspects of D-Day haven’t received the coverage they deserve, having been overshadowed by the fighting on the beaches. Veronico assembles photos of both the air and sea components of the D-Day invasion, giving the sailors and airmen their due and giving modern readers a vivid sense of what this monumental day was like in the air and at sea.

Download or read book Fly Navy written by Alvin Townley and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2011-04-26 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Top Gun was only part of the story. Fly Navy delves beyond the Hollywood image to reveal the true mettle and genuine story of the elite men and women of naval aviation. For one hundred years, the U.S. Navy's aviators and crews have made the difference on military and peacetime missions around the world. Their unparalleled skill, preparation, and everyday dedication have paid off when it matters most: when lives are on the line. Together, these men and women—officers and enlisted personnel, past and present—have protected freedom, served their country, and forged a legacy of valor like no other. In this landmark book, Alvin Townley takes readers on an adventure around the world and across generations as he goes behind the scenes of naval aviation. From the skies over the Arabian Sea to the jungles of Southeast Asia to carriers patrolling the vast Pacific, he uncovers incredible stories of service members who survived weeks adrift at sea, made midnight rescues in deadly storms, crash-landed behind enemy lines, and found themselves in situations where their exceptional training and focus were the only things standing between life and death. Filled with inspiring personal accounts of courage, camaraderie, and sheer perseverance, Fly Navy pays tribute to the extraordinary individuals who have built naval aviation into the revered force it is today—and will remain tomorrow.

Download or read book Food in the Air and Space written by Richard Foss and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-12-11 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the history of cooking, there has been no more challenging environment than those craft in which humans took to the skies. The tale begins with meals aboard balloons and zeppelins, where cooking was accomplished below explosive bags of hydrogen, ending with space station dinners that were cooked thousands of miles below. This book is the first to chart that history worldwide, exploring the intricacies of inflight dining from 1783 to the present day, aboard balloons, zeppelins, land-based aircraft and flying boats, jets, and spacecraft. It charts the ways in which commercial travelers were lured to try flying with the promise of familiar foods, explains the problems of each aerial environment and how chefs, engineers, and flight crew adapted to them, and tells the stories of pioneers in the field. Hygiene and sanitation were often difficult, and cultural norms and religious practices had to be taken into account. The history is surprising and sometimes humorous at times some ridiculous ideas were tried, and airlines offered some strange meals to try to attract passengers. It’s an engrossing story with quite a few twists and turns, and this first book on the subject tells it with a light touch.
