Résumé :
In a highly competitive market, service quality can be the core competitive advantage for airline’s profitability and sustained development. This paper has investigated the differences in the passengers’ expectations and perceptions of the service quality of China’s four major domestic airlines: Air China, China Southern Airlines, China Eastern Airlines, and Hainan Airlines in China’s domestic market. The results will assist airline management to improve service quality by reducing the difference. Surveys were conducted with domestic passengers at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport and Shanghai Pudong Airport in China. The results show that there are significant differences of service quality between passengers’ expectations and perceptions among major Chinese airlines. Passengers consistently rate ‘good safety records’ as the first priority of seven SERVQUAL dimensions, but low price remains the most important factor that passengers consider when choosing a Chinese airline. The conclusions reached in this work suggest that Chinese airlines should consider improving service quality rather than providing cheaper air tickets in order to gain competitive advantage.

Résumé :
Understanding the economic characteristics of the U.S. airline industry, assessing the degree of competition/rivalry among the competing airline businesses in the U.S. airline industry, and (3) making recommendations to the airlines and to the consumers of air transportation are the primary objectives of this research study. The authors analyze the rivalry among major U.S. airlines operating in the domestic market using datasets extracted from Bureau of Transportation Statistics for operations during a 12-month period ending in May 2019. Amongst the 17 major U.S. airlines, whose annual operational revenue is over $1 billion, a set of top-five airlines has been identified using the percentage of their marketshare. The research findings indicate that these five major airlines have an intense rivalry in the U.S. domestic market in terms of number of markets served, number of departures made, number of passengers transported, amount of cargo carried, load factor, revenue and cost of operations, profit and loss, and net income earned. Hence, these airlines put pressure on one another and limit each other’s profit potential.

Résumé :
Purpose: This study investigates the relationships between service efficiency in 5 major cost centres (namely, business orientation, network coverage, physical resources, maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO), and human resources) and profitability in the global airline industry.Design/methodology/approach: The study integrates the Slack-based Model (SBM) of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) with the Alternating Conditional Expectation (ACE) regression to understand the relationships between an airline’s profitability and its efficiencies in 5 identified operations areas.Findings: Based on the observational data obtained from 75 international airlines, the relationships between operational performances and profitability are found to be curvilinear and contingent on an airline’s operating model.Research limitations/implications: The omission of non-IATA airlines and many low cost carriers may hinder a holistic view of the airline industry.Practical implications: Management can influence the profitability of an airline through its strategic operations decisions that affect an airline’s cost, service quality, and financial structure after the influences of location and size have set the stage. Airlines pursuing cost leadership should seek to increase productivity especially in MRO, human resources and physical resources; whereas airlines pursuing service differentiation may choose to provide quality service at lower efficiencies or pursue an approach to improve quality and efficiencies simultaneously.Originality/value: Identifying operations practices that are consistent with a firm’s competitive priorities is important in the multifaceted service environment today. An integrated SBM-ACE regression model, which permits different input-output mix, variable return to scale and non-linear relationship, is proposed and applied to analyze the profit impact of service efficiencies in the five key operations areas.

Résumé :
The objective of this research was to examine Cargolux Airlines International’s, one of the world’s major dedicated all-cargo airlines, strategic position in the global air cargo supply chain. To achieve this objective, a qualitative research approach was used. The data gathered for the study was examined by document analysis. The strategic analysis of Cargolux Airlines International was underpinned using Porter’s Five Forces Model. The study found that Cargolux has developed an extensive portfolio of products that satisfy discrete air cargo market segments’ requirements. The airline has also entered strategic partnership agreements with Emirates SkyCargo, Nippon Cargo Airlines (NCA), and Oman Air, which has enabled the partners to expand their route networks and to better optimize their available air cargo capacities. Cargolux has also established Milan-based Cargo Italia, which focuses on serving the important Italian air cargo market. The airline has also developed a successful two hub strategy in conjunction with one of its major shareholders, Henan Civil Aviation and Investment Company (HNCA). In 2017, Cargolux commenced a journey of transformation with the introduction of the “Cargolux 2025 Strategy”. A limitation of the study was that Cargolux’s annual revenues were not available. It was, therefore, not possible to analyze the airline’s revenue performance.

Résumé :
The aviation industries in Europe and the US have been well-established since a very early age and have attracted great attention from both industry practitioners and academics. To derive a different perspective on the efficiency levels of airlines operating in the two matured markets, we adopted dynamic data envelopment analysis (DEA). Using the data of the period 2014 – 2016 of 7 European airlines and 9 US airlines that are publicly traded, the study offers an overall picture of airlines' efficiency in the two regions. Notably, the resource flow between the consecutive periods is incorporated into the measure to yield a longitudinal perspective on airlines' efficiency. The study reveals the two major findings. First, most publicly traded airlines in Europe and the US are efficient, except for Hawaiian airline headquartered in the US. Second, Hawaiian airline's inefficiency is majorly contributed by the overuse of the number of employees, consumed fuel, and the deficit of revenue seat-miles in 2014 and 2015. To improve the efficiency level, Hawaiian airlines could consider increasing employee productivity, using more fuel-efficient aircraft, and implementing new marketing strategies to boost sales.

Résumé :
How new entrant carriers may use returns to airline networks in competition is discussed. In addition to overall returns to scope and density, there are more localized returns that are based on network shape. A network shape index, which is a measure of airline network concentration based on the Herfindahl-Hirschman index, is described. Airlines have chosen many different shapes as measured by the network shape index, and new entrants tend to be shaped differently from major airlines. A model of new entrant profitability relative to the major airlines is developed. New entrants whose network shape indices are substantially different from the major airlines have niche networks, and the model indicates that niche networks are associated with higher profitability.

Résumé :
Airlines on average spend 10%-15% of their total operating cost on aircraft maintenance. Most of the airlines conduct their light maintenance checks in-house. These light checks have a major impact on flight schedules, delay rates and cost. A chronic challenge with airlines is assigning light maintenance checks to the hangars while achieving a balanced utilization of the manpower. This study considers airline's daily flight schedule, manpower needed for each check, the availability of manpower and expertise at each hangar, capitalizes on flexibility of performing aircraft light maintenance checks among potential hangars aiming at balancing manpower utilization. The results are very encouraging compared with existing practices. The model not only identifies which maintenance checks to be performed at different hangars but provides recommendations in terms of increasing/decreasing manpower needs. An airline application reveals that the model can help airlines with their strategic manpower planning strategies to achieve a high and balanced utilization of their maintenance manpower.

Airline involvement in sport sponsorship has grown over the last few years as sponsorship activity has proven effective as one method to reach a global audience. Aiding in this move to the use of sponsorship is the growing role of social media networks that can be utilized with traditional media and event marketing activities to leverage the impact of the sponsorship. However, the extent of involvement in sports, the leading area of sponsorship activity, and across other events by the world’s major air carriers varies greatly. This review examines the reported sponsorships engagements in sports by leading global airlines at the airline’s web site.

Résumé :
An airline alliance is a group of member airlines that seek to achieve the same goals through routes and airports. Hence, airports’ connectivity plays an essential role in understanding the linkage between different markets, especially the impact of neighboring airports on focal airports. An airline alliance airport network (AAAN) comprises airports as nodes and routes as edges. It could reflect a clear collaborative proportion within AAAN and competitive routes between AAANs. Recent studies adopted an airport- or route-centric perspective to evaluate the relationship between airline alliances and their member airlines; meanwhile, they mentioned that an airport community could provide valuable air transportation information because it considers the entire network structure, including the impacts of the direct and indirect routes. The objectives are to identify spatial patterns of market region in an airline alliance and characterize the differences among airline alliances (Oneworld, Star Alliance, and SkyTeam), including regions of collaboration, competition, and dominance. Our results show that Star Alliance has the highest collaboration and international market dominance among three airline alliances. The most competitive regions are Asia-Pacific, West Asia, Europe, and North and Central America. The network approach we proposed identifies market characteristics, highlights the region of market advantages in the airline alliance, and also provides more insights for airline and airline alliances to extend their market share or service areas.

Résumé :
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze the extent to which major US airlines respond to one another in quality of service improvements. Design/methodology/approach Utilizing monthly data, the authors estimate a five-equation vector autoregressive model to determine which airline leads or follows others in quality of service improvements. Findings This study found that the five major airlines make interrelated decisions when responding to customer complaints concerning flight problems, over-sales, reservations, ticketing, boarding, and customer service. Every airline either responds to or influences the changes in customer complaints faced by at least one other airline, while some airlines do both. However, only one such relationship was found when examining if airlines change the percent of flight delays they have control over in response to changes in flight delays faced by another airline. Practical implications The number of passenger complaints against an airline can be influenced by the airline, as can the number of carrier-caused flight delays. The industry leaders in responsiveness to consumer complaints are US Airways and United. However, airlines do not, as a group, respond to the carrier-caused delays of their competitors. The prescription to improve airline service vis-à-vis flight delays is simple: tell passengers why flights are delayed. To protect or gain market share, airlines would compete for customers by minimizing flight delays in a similar manor to how they respond to customer complaints. Originality/value No other paper that the authors are aware of has addressed the issue of identifying leaders and followers in the US airline industry regarding changes in service quality as reflected by changes in passenger complaints and flight delays.

Résumé :

 

The airline industry and Sustainable ValueThe airline industry are, by many, considered to be an industry with a high level of environmental impact, in other words an environmental destroyer. Although some argue that it still does only produces a small part of the world’s total emissions it is still an industry under high pressure from regulatory institutions and customers.

Sustainable value is a rather new concept and allows the user measure a company’s social and/or environmental performance in monetary terms, which is the main difference from many financial calculation models. The ADVANCE sustainable value method is based on theories of opportunity costs and can give indications in terms of efficiency in comparison to a chosen benchmark.Purpose With the use of this method we are interested in finding out if an airline can create a sustainable value even though they are performing an activity that, for some, is seen as destroying the environment? The sustainable value method prime users would be stakeholders such as investors and as many companies in the airline industry are non-public companies, we also aim to discuss a wider range of usage for this method such as for the management internal decision process.

MethodWe have chosen three major Swedish airlines to base our calculations on by using a nonprobability selection. We have excluded companies that are not registered in Sweden, does not provide actual passenger transport, are so called “virtual airline” and/or have not any publicly available information. A virtual airline, in this context, refers to an airline that does not own or lease any own aircrafts and instead are buying passenger chairs from another airline, called codesharing. We will benchmark our calculations towards the Swedish GDP and the Swedish Transport sector.

Theoretical frameworkThe management’s task is to, among other things, implement measures for the management accountants to use in their work. Corporate Sustainable Responsibility’s (CSR) general idea is to act responsible towards the most important questions for their stakeholders such as investors, government etc. CSR has led to that more sustainability information to stakeholders is produced, the type of information that we are using in our calculations.Our findingsBy the use of the ADVANCE method we can see that in fact airlines, despite the high preasure can create a positive Sustainable Value while comparing to the transport sector. We also argue the method can be used by the management as a complement to their other financial measures as it gives other efficiency indications than traditional methods.

 


Flygbranschen och hållbart värdeFlygbranschen är, av många, ansed vara en industri med hög miljöpåverkan. Även om vissa hävdar att det fortfarande bara bidrar till en liten del av världens totala utsläpp, är det fortfarande en bransch under högt tryck från lagstiftande institutioner och kunder. Hållbart värde är ett tämligen nytt begrepp och tillåter att användaren att mäta ett företags sociala och / eller miljöprestanda i monetära termer, vilken är den största skillnaden från många ekonomiska beräkningsmodeller. ADVANCE Sustainable Value metoden är baserad på teorier om alternativa kostnader och kan ge indikationer i fråga om effektivitet i jämförelse med en vald riktmärke. SyfteMed hjälp av denna metod är vi intresserade av att veta om ett flygbolag kan skapa ett hållbart värde trots att de utför en verksamhet som, för vissa, ses som förstör miljön. Metodens främsta användarna är intressenter som investerare. Då många svenska företag i flygbranschen är icke-offentliga bolag, strävar vi också att diskutera en bredare användning för denna metod som för förvaltningen interna beslutsprocessen. MetodVi har valt tre stora svenska flygbolag att basera våra beräkningar på genom att använda en icke sannolikhets urval. Vi har uteslutit företag som inte är registrerade i Sverige, inte ge nuvarande persontransporter, är så kallade "virtuella flygbolag" och / eller inte har någon allmänt tillgänglig information. Ett virtuellt flygbolag, i detta sammanhang hänvisar till ett flygbolag som inte äger eller leasar några egna flygplan och istället köper passagerare stolar från ett annat bolag, kallat code sharing. Vi kommer att jämföra våra beräkningar till den svenska BNP och den svenska transportsektorn. Teoretiskt ramverkLedningens uppgift är att bland annat genomföra åtgärder för förvaltningen revisorer att använda i sitt arbete. Corporate Social Responsobilitys (CSR) allmänna tanken är att agera ansvariga gentemot de viktigaste frågorna för deras intressenter såsom investerare, regeringen osv. CSR har lett till att mer hållbarhets information  produceras, vilken är den typ av information som vi använder i vår beräkningar. Vårat resultatGenom användning av metoden kan vi se att det faktiskt finns ett flygbolag som trots det höga trycket kan skapa ett positivt hållbart värde när vi jämför mot transportsektorn. Vi hävdar också att metoden kan användas av ledningen som ett komplement till sina andra ekonomiska verktyg eftersom det ger andra effektivitet indikationer än traditionella metoder.

This thesis expands on models that predict delays within the National Airspace System (NAS) in the United States. We propose a new method to predict the expected behavior of the NAS throughout the course of an entire day after only a few flying hours have elapsed. We do so by using k-means clustering to classify the daily NAS behavior into a small set of most commonly seen snapshots. We then use random forests to map the delay behavior experienced early in a day to the most similar NAS snapshot, from which we make our type-of-day prediction for the NAS. By noon EST, we are able to predict the NAS type-of-day with 85% accuracy. We then incorporate these NAS type-of-day predictions into previously proposed models to predict the delay on specific origin-destination (OD) pairs within the U.S. at a certain number of hours into the future. The predictions use local delay variables, such as the current delay on specific OD pairs and airports, as well network-level variables such as the NAS type-of-day. These OD pair delay prediction models use random forests to make classification and regression predictions. The effects of changes in classification threshold, prediction horizon, NAS type-of-day inclusion, and using wheel off/on, actual, and scheduled gate departure and arrival times are studied. Lastly, we explore how the delay behavior of the NAS has changed over the last ten years and how well the models perform on new data.

Résumé :
Globally, the aviation industry supports 58.1 million jobs in related industries and U.S. airlines alone generated 11.8 million jobs. Airline performance, productivity, and profitability depend on employees. The purpose of this single case study was to explore the strategies that U.S. airline leaders use to improve employee performance. The study was grounded with the Harvard model of human resource management. A stratified purposeful sample of 14 managers and 10 frontline staff from a Florida airline participated in semistructured individual interviews and a focus group, respectively. The data from these interviews were analyzed using Moustakas's modified van Kaam method. The themes that emerged from analysis included: an emphasis on the individual interaction and verbal affirmations between managers and frontline staff, additional career development opportunities for employees, not only for performing in their role but improving performance and level of commitment to the organization. Furthermore, managers and employees arrived at the same conclusion about organization culture and commitment-individuals have to feel they are contributing to the overall mission and feel valued in doing so. For the latter to occur, leaders need to engage employees in continuous dialogue and be completely transparent, and employees need to be open to feedback and share their motivations and goals. Social change implications include improved management and labor relationships within the U.S. airline industry, which ultimately benefits the flying public through greater stability and better service.

Résumé :

The US airline industry has seen its share of woes with increased oil prices, several wars, acts of terrorism, and economic meltdowns to name a few. US Airlines have been challenged financially as evidenced by the realities of airline bankruptcies experienced by several legacy carriers that have struggled to remain financially viable. However, one major US airline and legacy carrier was for many years able to withstand the perils of bankruptcy, possible in most part due to the sacrifices made by its employees. This sacrifice was significant as the majority of an airline's total costs can be attributed to unionized labor. In what they believed to be a sacrifice that all employees would share, unionized flight attendants at Airline XYZ took a significant pay cut to help keep the airline out of bankruptcy, only to later see executives at the company receive bonuses while they continued to see cuts in labor and benefits. This study examines the sacrifices made by flight attendants at this major US airline, management, and the concept of broken agreements experienced in the aftermath of those sacrifices. It explores the concept of broken agreements and the perception of inequity as they relate to flight attendants and their decision to leave their careers at Airline XYZ.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 114-116).
In response to the many challenges faced by US airlines in the past decade, merger activity has increased significantly. By combining their networks, airlines commonly aim to not only realize cost synergies but also achieve revenue synergies as well through increased network coverage. In practical terms, this means that the combined airline can cut its total capacity without reducing traffic as it benefits from a larger network and more connecting options via its hubs. The objective of this thesis is to find evidence to confirm this effect based on recent merger activity by comparing both capacity and traffic data before and after the integration period. Particular emphasis is placed on the changing role of hubs to highlight capacity and traffic shifts in a combined network. Two of the most recent major mergers, Delta-Northwest and United-Continental, exhibit how the networks of previously independent carriers were consolidated to achieve the above-mentioned synergies. Delta concentrated capacity at its largest hub in Atlanta and a small number of additional hubs while other hubs experienced a significant downsizing. Additionally, the airline also eliminated a large number of point-to-point services that were bypassing the hubs in order to maximize the use of its hubs. United and Continental, on the other hand, engaged in fairly minor capacity redistribution instead of sweeping reductions. Both carriers increased the share of capacity operated by regional partners and grew capacity between most of the hubs as well. Over the same time frame, however, both of the combined airlines lost passengers compared to their pre-merger levels. While exogenous factors like the recent recession and operational issues played a role, network strategies at both airlines also affected traffic. Delta was unable to recover most of the passengers it lost on the eliminated point-to-point services. For United, the shift towards more international capacity indicates a displacement of domestic traffic by international connecting passengers. Although both carriers had not returned to their pre-merger traffic levels by the end of the integration period, Delta's 2012 performance suggests that network integration and consolidation can have positive effects in the long run.

Résumé :
Commercial airlines face an extremely challenging operating and competitive environment. To remain in business they must comply with ever-changing regulatory requirements while, at the same time, minimizing their operational costs without sacrificing customer expectations of service levels. Increasingly, airlines are realizing that a “plan-execute” mode of operation must give way to a “sense-respond” mode of operation; in other words they must become a real-time (agile) organization, capable of sensing the occurrence of unforeseen events such as the placement of a last-minute shipping order, flight delays, and cancellations, and respond effectively in real-time to such events. To enable enterprises in general, and the airline industry in particular, to improve their sense-and-respond capabilities and ensure better resource utilization, a number of software vendors are offering event stream processing and Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) solutions. This case examines a longitudinal set of real-world implementation projects using such a solution at a major US airline (referred to as Southern International Airlines) and the results and lessons gained from this deployment.

Résumé :
Chapter 5 discusses how an air route was made. In 1937, Imperial Airways (U.K.) and Pan American Airways (U.S.A.) launched an air passenger service between Bermuda and New York. It was the first transatlantic route of its kind. For it to happen, one of the first airlines in the colonial Caribbean, Caribbean Airways, was forced to close down. Chapter 5 examines the making of a major international air alliance and the unmaking of a local colonial airline. It relays a story about routes as lines of connection and disconnection, and ultimately reorients how the transatlantic is imagined and understood.

Résumé :
This chapter aims to explore the airline service processes which relate to the issue of outsourcing for service innovation. With this, airline managements are able to identify the part of the service process that necessitates outsourcing. The decision to outsource some service processes to the supplier is intended to allow airlines to focus on their core business. This chapter looks at the service encounter approach to analyse the possibility of the innovation during service processes. The results indicate that there are four major groups who have experienced service encounters in which innovations originate and evolve. These four groups interact in the service process which identifies the fact that the service process can be outsourced and innovated (e.g. web-integrated system, mobile phone application for check-in, maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO), multi-sorting baggage handling system). Airline management has been suggested to make improvement of the services offered by considering safety, cost aspects, and enhance customer service experiences. This effort is expected to come up with an airline business strategy that will create sustainable competitive advantage.

Résumé :
Aviation industry showing significant growth around the World. Different specialization companies making partnerships with each other to make aviation imperia even bigger and more stable. The relation between companies provides not only growth but also stagnation of operations. Nowadays Boeing 737-MAX crashes prove that affected major companies were forced to stop operations, due to lack of aircraft. For that reason, ACMI (Aircraft, crew, maintenance, and insurance) companies provided the full capacity to maintain flight operations. From this perspective, ACMI companies living a golden age. These companies’ services are booked by major airlines for many months in front, due to unforeseen aircraft type grounding issues. The situation in almost every industry varies between ups and downs by forcing companies to analyze the future strategy development plan. Based on AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and TOPSIS method, it is preferable to buy neither to lease an ACMI services from a longer period perspective. New aircraft are less cheap regarding maintenance schedules, fuel consumption and after full repayment, it becomes airline property. The purpose of the article is to asses ACMI company strategy development to stay in the aviation business after major airlines re-establish their full operations. The leasing company can not be a direct competitor to airlines, therefore it needs to develop specific services, which can attract customers. ACMI company can provide services as fast as possible in unexpected or emergency situations. Moreover giving the flexibility of leasing and providing extra services, makes the company be attractive and unique.

Résumé :
Engine operating cost is a major contributor to the direct operating cost of aircraft. Therefore, the minimization of engine operating cost per flight-hour is a key aspect for airlines to operate successfully under challenging market conditions. The interaction between maintenance cost, operating cost, asset value, lease and replacement cost describes the area of conflict in which engine fleets can be optimized. State-of-the-art fleet management is based on advanced diagnostic and prognostic methods on engine and component level to provide optimized long-term removal and work-scoping forecasts on fleet level based on the individual operation. The key element of these methods is a digital twin of the active engines consisting of multilevel models of the engine and its components. This digital twin can be used to support deterioration and failure analysis, predict life consumption of critical parts and relate the specific operation of a customer to the real and expected condition of the engines on-wing and at induction to the shop. The fleet management data is constantly updated based on operational data sent from the engines as well as line maintenance and shop data. The approach is illustrated along the real application on the CFM56-5C, a mature commercial two-spool high bypass engine installed on the Airbus A340-300. It can be shown, that the new methodology results in major improvements on the considered fleets.

Résumé :
With research and technology (R&T) development activities for the next generation SuperSonic Transport (SST) being pursued globally over the past few years, the options to proposed airframe and engine concepts appears to be converging. The United States, the Europeans, and the Japanese are all engaged in developing the technologies needed for a future SST that is environmentally compatible and economically practical. Boeing and McDonnell Douglas are part of the team under an R&T contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to develop critical components and enabling materials that will allow industry to make a production decision by 2003. Europe’s three main aircraft manufacturer’s — i.e., Aerospatiale, British Aero-space, and Deutsche Aerospace — comprise the European Supersonic Research Program (ESRP). A primary Japanese effort called the Hypersonic Transport Propulsion System Research (HYPR) project consists of a consortium of four international engine manufacturers and the National Japanese Laboratory. The manufacturers are: Ishikawajima-Harima Heavy Industries Co. Ltd., the Kawasaki Heavy Industries Co. Ltd., Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Co. Ltd., and General Electric Aircraft Engines Company, USA. A recent study by the Japan Aircraft Development Corporation (Reference 1) also addressed the technology requirements for the next generation SST. There are basically three major challenges that must be met before a new SST can become a reality. They are the technical, environmental, and economic challenges. The technical challenges of the propulsion system primarily reduce the development of new materials capable of sustaining higher temperatures and vibration (high and low frequency) over longer exposure times as well as capable of being produced at reasonable costs. Low emission combustors and low exhaust jet noise are the primary environmental challenges, which are a technical challenge in themselves. The economic challenge is to produce an aircraft and propulsion system that allows the manufacturers to recover development and manufacturing costs as well as realize a reasonable Return-On-Investment (ROI). In addition, Life Cycle Costs (LCC) must not be substantially above future subsonic airliners in order to justify premium fares the public would be willing to pay for the time savings of long-distance flights and still be profitable to the airlines.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
Reactor safety and risk are dominated by the potential and major contribution for human error in the design, operation, control, management, regulation and maintenance of the plant, and hence to all accidents. Given the possibility of accidents and errors, now we need to determine the outcome (error) probability, or the chance of failure. Conventionally, reliability engineering is associated with the failure rate of components, or systems, or mechanisms, not of human beings in and interacting with a technological system. The probability of failure requires a prior knowledge of the total number of outcomes, which for any predictive purposes we do not know or have. Analysis of failure rates due to human error and the rate of learning allow a new determination of the dynamic human error rate in technological systems, consistent with and derived from the available world data. The basis for the analysis is the “learning hypothesis” that humans learn from experience, and consequently the accumulated experience defines the failure rate. A new “best” equation has been derived for the human error, outcome or failure rate, which allows for calculation and prediction of the probability of human error. We also provide comparisons to the empirical Weibull parameter fitting used in and by conventional reliability engineering and probabilistic safety analysis methods. These new analyses show that arbitrary Weibull fitting parameters and typical empirical hazard function techniques cannot be used to predict the dynamics of human errors and outcomes in the presence of learning. Comparisons of these new insights show agreement with human error data from the world’s commercial airlines, the two shuttle failures, and from nuclear plant operator actions and transient control behavior observed in transients in both plants and simulators. The results demonstrate that the human error probability (HEP) is dynamic, and that it may be predicted using the learning hypothesis and the minimum failure rate, and can be utilized for probabilistic risk analysis purposes.

Résumé :
A similarity-based modeling (SBM) technique is demonstrated that provides very early annunciation of the onset of gas path faults in aircraft engines. This powerful approach is shown to provide high fidelity estimates for real-time condition monitoring of aircraft engine signals. These estimates are used to detect the onset of changes in the inter-relationship between the various signals using a sophisticated set of built-in algorithms and tools. The ability of the SBM software to reliably detect subtle changes in signal behavior that are characteristic of a developing anomaly is coupled with a diagnostic rules engine to enable a rapid and robust fault recognition capability. The SBM software operates using a set of algorithms that construct a multivariate nonparametric model of the traditional monitoring sensors (pressure transducers, thermocouples, flow meters, etc.) present in the system. This model is used to generate real-time estimates of sensor values that represent normal system operation. A series of sophisticated tools compares these very high fidelity estimates to the actual sensor readings to detect discrepancies. Finally, a series of logic rules derived from a combination of engineering analysis and experience is applied to the output from the modeling engine in real-time to alert the user of developing serious conditions that need either immediate or planned maintenance attention. The software system provides a complete approach to asset monitoring that minimizes down time, maximizes availability, encodes (preserves) operator knowledge and lowers the overall costs associated with maintaining the assets. In this paper, we demonstrate the use of the similarity-based modeling approach for detecting faults in the gas path of aircraft engines. Some results from the monitoring of over 1,100 engines at a major commercial airline over a two-year period are described. Operationally, the early detection of developing engine faults has prevented delays and cancellations, and has contributed to a reduction in the airline’s in-flight shutdown rate. Financially, this approach has led to significant cost savings by the prevention of major secondary damage.

This paper discusses the concept of using quantitative risk assessment (QRA) techniques to make specific decisions regarding competing risks associated with specific maintenance policies. This paper is based on a project performed for a major international airline to assess the risk trade-off between a potential catastrophic event occurring during a maintenance procedure versus the possibility of inadvertently leaving a safety device in place following plane takeoff. The paper demonstrates the use of simplified event trees, human reliability analysis, and risk-based decision making.

Résumé :
The increasing world population, higher accessibility to air transportation, coupled with new low-cost airline models has resulted in an unprecedented increase in demand for civil aviation. The industry is currently experiencing a global increase of operational civil aircraft at a rate of 5–6% annually. This growth suggests a vibrant future for the industry, however, the environmental implications and the footprint is worth considerable attention given the expected scale of growth in the industry and the possible side effects to human health. The stakeholders involved, some of which include: airports and airline operators, jet engine and airframe manufacturers and various government bodies, are introducing measures in order to mitigate the increase in certain emissions and hence their impact. This study focuses on one of the many existing approaches targeting the reduction in gaseous emissions, predominantly nitrogen oxides (NOx). This is through compressor water injection that is estimated to reduce NOx emissions by almost half under certain ambient conditions and water-to-air ratio. Apart from reviewing this technology, the study, more importantly, presents the ideas in relation to other major existing approaches/concepts. It would be observed that compressor water injection can be more readily applied to the existing infrastructure when compared to other approaches. This technique is one of the most promising methods for reducing NOx emissions, an area of particular importance given that modern engines, though more thermally efficient, operate at higher pressure ratios and flame temperature, both of which enhance nitrogen oxides formation. One of the main contributions of this paper is the categorisation of existing approaches focused on reducing aircraft-borne airport emissions. Different technologies and operational changes are classified according to the key pollutants that they target with respect to the landing and takeoff cycle based on 11 different engine types. These gaseous-emissions mitigating approaches are analyzed based on their individual merits, limitations and feasibilities. Compressor water injection is re-introduced here as a more readily applicable solution despite its technological challenges, many of which can be better resolved with today’s knowledge.

Résumé :
Technological advances in arc spray have produced an arc spray system that competes very favorably with other thermal spray processes. In the past arc spray was thought of as a process for very large parts that need thick buildups. However, an attachment device has been developed which focuses the pattern and accelerates the particles and is known as the Arc Jet system. The advantages of this device were discussed by Zwetloot, Sampson and Thorpe (1993), Reference 4. This attachment device coupled with the introduction of metal cored wires that provide the same chemistries as plasma sprayed powders, provides application engineers with a viable economic alternative to existing spray methods. A comparative evaluation of a standard production plasma spray system was conducted with the arc spray process utilizing the device mentioned above. This evaluation was conducted by an airline company on four major parts coated with nickel aluminum and results show that, for those applications, the arc spray process demonstrated significant benefit. It is expected that other applications may benefit from the use of the arc spray process as well.

Résumé :
Abstract Engine operating cost contributes a major share to an aircraft’s direct operating cost. Thus, the knowledge of the current and future state of their engines is a major concern to any airline operator. To be able to schedule shop visits, state-of-the-art diagnostic and prognostic tools including CFD methods are employed. These RANS-based turbulence and transition models are used to predict the overall efficiency and operational behavior of the engine components. Aerofoil surfaces undergo dynamic change during operation and surface roughness increases in complex non-homogeneous ways due to corrosion, erosion, and fouling processes; depending on the engine component and the environmental condition encountered. The influence of real fouling based roughness on the boundary layer transition is investigated experimentally and numerically within this study. For this purpose, the rotor midspan from the second HPC rotor of the CFM56 is used as the basis for experimental and numerical investigations. Realistic fouling based roughness is applied and investigated both in a cascade tunnel and a low speed compressor rig. The results shown here indicate that laminar boundary layers and their transition to turbulence must be included in the RANS model combination used. Furthermore, it is necessary to consider roughness effects in the respective turbulence and transition model. While the consideration of roughness for the turbulence models has already found wide acceptance, the results in this work motivate the additional extension of the transition model to include roughness effects.

Résumé :
This literature review finds that the main malicious threats to civilian aviation since 1975 are attacks by terrorist groups, deliberate or accidental damage arising from conflicts, and incidents caused by people who work for airlines or airports. While the sector has responded to hijackings and bombings with increasing security since the 1970s, actors seeking to attack aircraft have modified their tactics, and new threats such as liquid explosives and cyber attacks have emerged. Civilian aviation has seen relatively fewer accidents and deaths over the years, but threats remain. The review focuses on malicious threats to civilian aviation. It, therefore, excludes weather events or accidents. The first section lists major malicious threats to civilian aviation since 1975. It includes both actual and planned events (e.g. hijackings that were prevented) that are recorded in open-source documents. Each threat is listed alongside information on its cause (e.g. terrorism, state actions, crime), the context in which it occurred (broader factors shaping the risk including geography, regime type, technology), and its impact (on passengers, policy, security, economic). The second section discusses some of the trends in threats to aviation. Motives for malicious threats include terrorism, crime, asylum-seeking, and insider attacks by aggrieved or mentally ill airline staff. Hijacking has been the most common form of threat, although bombing or suicide attacks have killed more people. Threats may also take the form of accidental attacks on civilian planes misidentified as threats in conflict zones. Experts suggest that growing threats are cyberattacks and the use of unmanned aerial vehicles, although neither has yet caused a major incident.
