Description

This book focuses on ways to better manage and prevent aircraft-based homicide events while in flight using alternate technology to replace the Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) and/or Digital Flight Data Recorder (DFDR) functions. While these events are infrequent, the implementation of real-time predictive maintenance allows aircraft operators to better manage both scheduled and unscheduled maintenance events. Aviation Safety and Security: Utilizing Technology to Prevent Aircraft Fatality explores historical events of in-flight homicide and includes relevant accident case study excerpts from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB). FEATURES Explores historical events of in-flight homicide and offers solutions for ways to mitigate risk Explains how alternate technologies can be implemented to address in-flight safety issues Demonstrates that metrics for change are not solely for safety but also for financial savings for aircraft operation Includes relevant accident case study excerpts from the NTSB and AAIB Expresses the need for real-time predictive maintenance Stephen J Wright is an academic Professor at the faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences at Tampere University, Finland, specializing in aviation, aeronautical engineering, and aircraft systems.

He holds a PhD from the University of Leeds, UK, in the fouling and failure of commercial aircraft air conditioning systems. Other academic qualifications include a Post Graduate Certification of teaching and learning in Higher Education, awarded by Kingston University, London. He gained a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from the University of Sussex, with additional studies at Uppsala Universitiet, Sweden. Prof. Wright engages formally with numerous elements of the European Commission as a recognised expert in Aviation/ Aeronautical Engineering. He is fully committed to the objectives and aspirations to improve the industry, that will allow for better and more effective air transportation (Flightpath 2050 / Master Plan). Lastly, Prof. Wright has attended and passed examination for numerous manufacturer ‘line and base’ maintenance engineering type rating courses (B1.1 discipline) associated with his previous commercial aviation employment, in addition to holding a European Aviation Safety Agency Flight Crew license for single engine piston aircraft.
