In any Free Flight system, pilots must have displays which effectively depict traffic and weather information as more and more responsibility for separation from such hazards transfers from air traffic controllers to pilots. This research effort seeks to address the issues of dimensionality (3D versus 2D coplanar displays) and data base integration (separation or integration of traffic and weather information within displays). Seventeen general aviation flight instructors flew a series of en route trials with four display types in which dimensionality, data base integration, and hazard geometries were manipulated. Analysis of the data revealed that the 2D displays resulted in a smaller percentage of conflicts with traffic and weather hazards. The results also suggested that displays in which traffic and weather were integrated resulted in fewer hazard conflicts for trials in which both hazard types were critical to maneuver selection. Maneuver strategy was also found to vary by scenario geometry.

Safety is a major factor every flight. National aviation safety oversight is one of the functions that are the responsibility of coaching the Derectorate General of Civil Aviation to encure compliance with the standards, procedures and regulations, in order to see the fulfillment of the terms and condition in general aviation safety standards and safe operation of airports in particular that carried out by the organizers airports and other stakeholders. The method of analisys used to determine the operational supervision airport is gap analysis between the observation and collection of primary data from airport managers with operational safety performance indicator airport contained in KM, 24 2009 on Civil Aviation Safety Regulation Part 139 on the airport (aerodrome) issued by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation. The analysis showed that the safety oversight of the airport operation in airport Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II Palembang in the surveillance system consists of four systems which are airport management system, air side system control, the airport environment systems, inspection systems and reporting systems and safety management system has been appropriate and meets CASR 139.Pengawasan keselamatan penerbangan nasional merupakan salah satu fungsi pembinaan yang menjadi tanggung jawab Direktorat Jenderal Perhubungan Udara memastikan kesesuaian standar, prosedur dan peraturan terkait, guna melihat pemenuhan peraturan dan ketentuan standar dan keselamatan penerbangan pada umumnya dan keselamatan operasi bandar udara pada khususnya yang dilaksanakan oleh penyelenggara bandar udara dan pemangku kepentingan lainnya. Metode analisis yang digunakan untuk mengetahui pelaksanaan pengawasan operasional bandar udara adalah metode analisis kesenjangan (gap analysis)antara hasil observasi dan pengumpulan data primer dari pengelola bandar udara dengan performance indicator keselamatan operasional bandar udara yang terdapat dalam KM. 24 Tahun 2001 tentang Peraturan Keselamatan Penerbangan Sipil Bagian 139 (Civil Aviation Safety Regulation Part 139) tentang Bandar Udara (Aerodrome). Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa pengawasan keselamatan operasi Bandar udara di Bandar udara Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II Palembang dalam sistem pengawasan terdiri dari 4 sistem yaitu sistem manajemen bandar udara, sistem control sisi udara, sistem lingkungan bandar udara, sistem pemeriksaan dan sistem pelaporan dan sistem Manajemen keselamatan sudah sesuai dan sudah memenuhi referensi CASR 139.

<p>An overproportioned number of accidents involving general aviation occur in complex terrain. According to the statistics included in the accident investigation reports published by the Swiss Transportation Safety Investigation Board, in some cases, pilots overestimated the energy reserves of their aircraft leading to a loss of control. In order to increase flight safety for private pilots in mountainous regions, on behalf of the Swiss Federal Office of Civil Aviation, the Centre for Aviation (ZAV) at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences  develops an energy management system for general aviation, which displays the remaining airplane’s energy reserves taking into account meteorological information. The research project comprises two phases: i) concept and feasibility study and ii) prototype development. The project is currently running in phase one. In this phase, the first implementation of the energy management system was completed. The system was evaluated in the ZAV’s Research and Didactics Simulator (ReDSim). In order to generate highly resolved wind fields in the ReDsim, a well-established large-eddy simulation model, the Parallelized Large-Eddy Simulation (PALM) framework, was used in the concept study, focusing on a small mountainous region in Switzerland, not far from Samedan. For a more realistic representation of specific meteorological situations, PALM was driven with boundary conditions extracted from the COSMO-1 reanalysis of MeteoSwiss. The environment model in the ReDSim was modified to include a new subsystem simulating atmospheric disturbance. The essential variables (wind components, temperature and pressure) were extractred from the PALM output and fed into the subsystem after interpolation to obtain the values at any instant and any aircraft position. Within the subsystem, it is also possible to generate statistical atmospheric turbulence based on the Dryden turbulence model which refers to the military specification MIL-F-8785. This work focuses on the presentation of the PALM model setup and discusses the COSMO-1 forced PALM simulation results, including a statistical comparison of the simulation results with meteorological data from different meteorological reference stations.</p>

The Oklahoma airfield pavement management system (APMS) is a set of pavement management tools that can assist with pavement condition evaluation, as well as prioritization and scheduling of pavement maintenance and rehabilitation activities. Pavement performance models were developed to support the APMS for more than 70 Oklahoma general aviation airports. The family modeling method based on the pavement condition index was tailored to fit the deterioration characteristics of these airfield pavements. The statistical and engineering significance of seven levels of pavement factors was investigated, and pavement factors that affect pavement deterioration significantly were identified as family variables. Asphalt concrete pavement families were formed by sorting pavement function, distress cause, and pavement thickness, while portland cement concrete pavements were divided into families according to pavement function and climate zone. The family polynomial curves were able to reveal the expected deterioration patterns and are logical in engineering principle. Rooted by an adaptive database, the system accepts expert opinion and automatically integrates effects of major maintenance and rehabilitation activities into modeling. From the up-to-date database, the performance models update forecasts automatically.
