The aim of this unit is to develop candidates’ understanding of the health, safety and security hazards present in the airport and airline sector. The main health, safety and security hazards are considered in the context of an airport terminal, the airside areas of an airport and then finally in the operation of an aircraft. The unit gives the opportunity for candidates to investigate current airport/airline issues in health, safety and security and also considers the key general and industry specific legislation affecting the sector. This unit has links with Unit 5: Current issues in travel and tourism, Unit 24: Investigating the airline industry, and Unit 26: The UK airport sector. Assessment Objectives 1, 2 and 3 should focus upon identifying the key hazards to health safety and security and the corresponding measures in place to minimise such risks.
Using today's energy costs, researchers figured a 12,000-kg Space Shuttle payload would cost no more than $17,700 for an elevator trip to GEO. A passenger with baggage at 150 kg might cost only $222! "Compare that to today's cost of around $10,000 per pound ($22,000 per kg)," said Smitherman. "Potentially, we're talking about just a few dollars per kg with the elevator." The elevator would go around how fast a space shuttle goes.
Security Assessment, Recommendations, and Solutions Amber Fuente DeVry University December 15, 2013 Abstract Aircraft Solutions located in California makes products and services for electronic, defense, commercial, and aerospace companies. After reviewing the scenario presented in case one I have identified to security weaknesses. Phase one will identify and explore the security weaknesses found. The first is a policy weakness regarding the use of firewalls and routers. The second is a hardware weakness also related to the use of servers.
The North American Aerospace Defense Command is prepared to send out fighter jets, which can debilitate or shoot down an airplane. Some skeptics believe NORAD commanded defense systems stood down because of their lack of presence during attacks. My beliefs of this conspiracy are true. The jets did not manage to respond until after the attack was over. It took more then an hour for them to respond.
Aircraft Solutions employs a range of highly qualified professionals for the production plant, with an overall goal of providing high-quality solutions while reducing cost to accommodate customer demands. The primary objective in this assessment is to identify the security vulnerabilities within the AS operations. The consequences might result in potential threats if the AS does not fix
These costs include training staff, the placement of quality control procedures, planning and administrations systems, and working with suppliers to provide quality supplies. Companies perform design experiments, test the reliability and engineering of a product, test production systems, and evaluate risk assessment. Process capability and process control are also included in the inspection, planning and other activities in manufacturing and service processes. Failure costs occur when parts or services are defective or faulty. These costs can be internal or external.
In the pursuit of continuous improvement, Boeing has integrated these two systems into one with the design of the 787 Dreamliner. There are advantages to having these systems combined which will be discussed in more detail. However, there are also obvious security concerns by not having these systems separate. This paper will explore how the FAA ensured the system protection provided by the Boeing design is sufficient to prevent any hacking activity to affect the aircraft operation. Prior to the design of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, in-flight cabin entertainment systems were physically separated from the systems that affect the aircraft’s operation.
Before implementing risk controls, you need to assess the potential effectiveness and possible consequences. You should then suggest a realistic and acceptable time frame for implementation of controls and ensure that deadlines are complied with. Employees should also be consulted as they might have good ideas of what can be done to reduce the likelihood of injury or damage. Also when controls are to be implemented, organizations should communicate proposed plans to affected employees via a form of specific training, staff notices or the revision and a public workplace statement of revised standard operating procedures. It is important to identify and implement WHS procedures and instructions to keep aware of Possible hazardous occurrences, and to be on top of workplace WHS.
In this phase, there are fluid dynamics calculations and configuration analyses. Lastly, detail design is manufacture phase of an aircraft. All of these steps must be done carefully. Today aircraft design is really important and people should follow these steps as a model but also should improve to create
Structures & different assemblies of aircraft are made from various materials, such as aluminium alloy, steel, titanium and composite materials. To dismantle the aircraft in pieces and then examine each component would take a long time, so the NDT method and equipment selection must be fast and effective. In the present trend of NDT application on aircraft 70-80% of NDT is performed on the airframe, structure, landing gears and the rest carried out on engine & related components. In order to maintain the aircraft defects free and ensure a high degree of quality & reliability and as a part of inspection programme, usually following NDT methods are applied; 1) Liquid penetrant 2) Magnetic particle, 3) Eddy current 4) Ultrasonic 5) Radiography (x-ray/gama ray) 6) Visual/Optical 7) Sonic/Resonance 8) Infrared Thermography. DIFFERENT NDT METHODS 1.
