Green Aviation is the first authoritative overview of both engineering and operational measures to mitigate the environmental impact of aviation. It addresses the current status of measures to reduce the environmental impact of air travel. The chapters cover such items as: Engineering...
Aviation remains one of the most active and challenging domains for human factors and applied psychology. Since 1981, the biennial International Symposium on Aviation Psychology (ISAP) has been convened for the purposes of (a) presenting the latest research on human performance...
This document sets forth the desired characteristics of the Iridium Low-Earth Orbiting (LEO) Aviation Satellite Communication (Satcom) System avionics intended for installation in all types of aircraft including commercial transport, business, and general aviation aircraft. The...
Due to the requirements of automatic system design, and new needs for the training of complex tasks, Cognitive Task Analysis (CTA) has been used with increasing frequency in recent years by the airline industry and air traffic control community. Its power is reflected in the...
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY THE UNDERSTANDING OF OFFSETTING In general terms an offset is a "compensating equivalent". As an activity, offsetting is the "cancelling out" or "neutralizing" of emissions from a sector like aviation with emissions reductions achieved in a different activity or location...
FOREWORD This manual outlines the duties and responsibilities of ICAO Member States with respect to the establishment and management of a national civil aviation security oversight system. It is directed at high-level government decision makers, as it highlights States' obligations as...
PURPOSE The GASeP incorporates the key aspects and themes from UNSCR 2309 (2016) and ICAO Assembly Resolution A39-18, in particular: the need for effective, risk-based measures that are assessed regularly to reflect the evolving threat picture; ensuring that measures are effectively implemented on...
This book seeks to extend the boundaries of aviation psychology in two interrelated ways: by broadening the focus of aviation psychology beyond the flight deck to the whole aviation system; and by discussing new theoretical developments which are shaping this applied...
This document contains general criteria for the planning, design, and construction of military and commercial ground based aviation fueling facilities that receive, store, distribute, and dispense liquid aviation turbine fuels at airports to both fixed and rotary wing aircraft.

Foreword 2020 was an exceptional year for international civil aviation. The COVID-19 pandemic forced unprecedented contractions on global connectivity, most especially pertaining to passenger movements. This led to catastrophic financial implications for many airline and airport operators,...
Most aviation accidents are attributed to human error, pilot error especially. Human error also greatly effects productivity and profitability. In his overview of this collection of papers, the editor points out that these facts are often misinterpreted as evidence of deficiency on the part...

Whereas traditional classroom instruction requires pilots to be pulled 'off the line', a training facility to be maintained and instructors to be compensated, e-learning is extremely cost-effective and therefore an attractive alternative. However, e-learning only saves money if the training is...
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) provides minimum performance and design standards to be applied to an Aviation Distress Signal, a handheld, high-intensity, stroboscopic light source designed to facilitate location and rescue of aviation accident/ditching survivors by ground, sea or...
Introduction. This instruction outlines the guidance, process, and rules by which the Combat Air Forces (CAF) Aviation Scheduling Integrated Product Team (SIPT) schedules CAF aviation assets. It includes the Aviation SIPT's role in the development, approval, and maintenance of...
