Airplane Parachutes

Airplane Parachutes 12/24/2004 12:57 PM

Giant parachutes help small planes in distress float down to safety: I saw a bit on The Discovery Channel about these once. They started on ultralights, and I watched home video of a guy popping his plane's chute after a massive structural failure caused both wings to collapse. Very impressive.

There's a good picture with this article that will help you understand the basic concept.

The company's most advanced parachute now can accommodate nearly 4,000 pounds. While small planes can weigh up to 2,000 pounds and cruise at about 175 mph, regional jets weigh 80,000 pounds and fly at more than 500 mph.

That's why Ballistic Recovery Systems is working with NASA — which gave it $670,000 for research — to design a new generation of emergency parachutes that would work on small jets and could be steered by pilots as they drift to the ground.

Suspicious things I've done on an
airplane

Suspicious things I've done on an
airplane 08/06/2004 07:52 AM
An Indian-American blogger recounts the "suspicious" things he's done on an airplane:

For reference, I am about 5'8", dark black hair and untrimmed beard length about three to four inches. I weigh about 160lbs and have brown skin. I am of Indian descent but am frequently mistaken for Arab. I often wear religious headdress when traveling (a white cotton cap with gold trim).

Here's some of the things I have done on an airplane, and why:

- Speaking a foreign language in hushed tones with other similar males

My language is a variant of Gujarati, with many Arabic vocabulary words. I consider it rude to talk loudly on a plane, since people are sleeping, and prefer to talkin my language with my friends or family if we are discussing personal things because in my experience, people eavesdrop in close quarters.

Airplane versus Minivan

Airplane versus Minivan 06/22/2005 02:23 AM

As I plan and pack up for Alaska I have had a couple of offers from guys who wanted to come with me from Boston to Anchorage (we leave Wednesday).  It turns out that the Cirrus SR20 is not that practical for long trips unless you are either very thin or totally friendless.Full fuel is necessary for some of the long legs in the remote regions of Alaska, Yukon, and the Northwest Territories where airports are widely separated and airports that sell fuel are uncommon--mostly you only get fuel at airports that are accessible by road or ship.  With full fuel my old Diamond Star would carry 570 pounds.  The Cirrus has a longer range but the penalty is that it only holds 520 pounds fully fueled and its performance at gross weight is marginal on warm days or at high elevations.  You need a lot of runway and to make sure that you don't need to outclimb any terrain.

The airplane isn't any fun without Alex in the back seat.  Alex needs his Science Diet Nature's Best, which isn't widely available, plus some other accessories.  Dog+food is about 100 lbs. total.  The plane needs a towbar, canopy cover, and tie-down ropes at 20 lbs.  For navigation one needs paper charts and approach plates for a total of at least 20 lbs.  Survival equipment is required by statute (until 2000 or so the kit was required include a gun and ammunition) and a full tent, mattress pad, and sleeping bag is really a good idea for forced landings as well as impromptu camping when hotels are full or not dog-friendly.  That's about 35 lbs. together.  You want some electronics in the airplane, such as headsets, EPIRB (the emergency locator transmitter that Cirrus includes in the airframe is an ancient 121.5 MHz design, which is not very effective for getting rescued), and maybe a little Iridium phone.  That's maybe 10 lbs. put together.  If I want to take a camera and some clothing and my 195 lb. carcass it looks as though I will have only about 100 lbs. left over for a human passenger.  If I want to take a little folding bike that comes down to 70 lbs. spare capacity.

How does a minivan compare?  A 2005 Toyota Sienna has a "curb weight" of 4120 lbs., 2000 lbs. more than the Cirrus.  Its gross vehicle weight is 5690 for a "payload" of 1570 (the curb weight includes full fuel).

Airplane grounded by praying

Airplane grounded by praying
pentecostals 05/27/2004 05:07 PM
A pair of praying Pentecostal preachers grounded a plane when they panicked passengers and pilots by saying 9/11 was "a good reason to pray."

One preacher told fellow passengers as the Continental Airlines plane taxied down the runway, "Your last breath on earth is the first one in heaven as long as you are born again and have Jesus in your heart," according to FBI spokesman Paul Moskal. Passengers on the Wednesday flight to Newark, New Jersey told a flight attendant, who alerted the plane's captain, officials said. The captain turned the plane around. "They were sincere in their beliefs and were not malicious," Moskal said by telephone from Buffalo. "In the context of 9/11 it may not have been the best way to promote their religion."

Helicopter versus airplane noise

Helicopter versus airplane noise 12/17/2004 06:36 PM

Helicopters that are descending with a fair amount of power produce an annoying sound called "blade slap".  Beginners are cautioned to avoid this condition because it leads to people on the ground complaining to the FAA about "those damned helicopters."  (One can avoid blade slap by lower the collective to descend more positively rather than drifting slightly down.)  A big turbine-powered helicopter flew over Harvard Square the other day, slapping away.  I was with a friend, call her "K", who hasn't spent much time in the work force.  I asked her whether she found the sound annoying.

"Helicopter noise doesn't bother me," K responded.  "I assume that it is a traffic helicopter or some sort of medical emergency.  What I really hate is airplane noise."

Why?

"Whenever I hear a big commercial jet overhead I think about companies sending their employees out for ridiculous meetings with each other where they will show vacuous PowerPoint presentations and have meaningless conversations."

Fair Summary of Airplane, Airport Wi-Fi

Fair Summary of Airplane, Airport Wi-Fi 08/08/2004 12:01 AM
Veteran Times tech/ecommerce columnist writes about Internet access in the air and in the terminal: Regular readers of this site will find this New York Times piece covers territory we write about and link to regularly, albeit the article has less detail as it's intended for a broader traveling audience with less interest in the particular technologies and speed, but rather more about the applications. Tenzing is fairly covered, but it should be noted that they'll be able to compete on speed with Connexion by Boeing when they are able to use Inmarsat's new satellites. Connexion by Boeing is now in five Lufthansa planes, this article discloses, and Tenzing low-speed and email service is in hundreds of planes. The article notes that Tenzing has dropped its prices a bit, from $16 for domestic flights down to $10. Surcharges applies for email attachments, but I believe as before there are ways to prevent viewing the surcharged part of the email until you decide you need to see it. Shorter flights might cost as little as $5 earlier this year; international flights run $20. I'm not sure what this sentence was supposed to mean, but it appears to have become garbled in editing: Tenzing, for now, operates at roughly the same speed as most dial-up modem connections, because it relies on radio frequency signals to send and retrieve data. But speeds could improve considerably, depending on whether the airline chooses a satellite connection. I believe the writer would have written that Tenzing is relying on a lower-speed network in the U.S., but the satellite system they employ internationally and will use for higher-speed services starting in 2005 uses radio frequencies, too--just different ones. The big news, reported a number of times earlier, is that Tenzing will able to cut the cord out of its domestic operations, FCC approval pending, to allow Wi-Fi access to its service. In domestic flights, you have to use the seat-back or arm-rest telephone to connect. Quite an ordeal, which the company openly acknowledges....

Thanksgiving Travel by Light Airplane

Thanksgiving Travel by Light Airplane 12/17/2004 06:36 PM

Alex and I set off from Boston Tuesday on a trip via light aircraft to northern New Jersey, Washington, DC, Norfolk, VA, and Gettysburg, PA.  I try to avoid flying in the clouds and I try to avoid flying in the dark.  But there was a cloud deck over New Jersey at about 2500' above the ground and the weather for Wednesday was forecast to be much worse.  So it was going to be a flight through at least some clouds.  If I had been alone I would have left around noon but a friend wanted a ride for the first leg of the trip and couldn't leave work immediately.  So we didn't take off from Hanscom Air Force Base (Bedford, MA) until after 3 pm.  Knowing that there would be clouds in New Jersey and not wanting to deal with the complex air space around New York City, I filed an instrument flight rules (IFR) plan.  Knowing that it would be dark when we arrived I decided to go to Teterboro airport where they have a precision instrument landing system (ILS) rather than cheaper simpler Essex County Airport where they have smaller runways and no ILS (Essex County is where JFK, Jr. kept his Piper Saratoga; Teterboro is closer to Manhattan but horrifically expensive for fuel and other services).  From the weather forecasts that I'd seen it sounded as though 6000' would put me above the lowest deck of clouds and below the higher decks.  That was indeed true until around Hartford, CT.  Then we were headed straight for the top of a cloud.  The dog in the back didn't budge from his sleeping position but I could feel some tension from the right seat.  "Why aren't we climbing to get above that cloud?" my passenger asked.

An instrument clearance means that Air Traffic Control (ATC) has cleared a block of airspace in front of you of any other airplanes that are also flying under IFR.  The pilot is still responsible for looking for visual flight rules (VFR) airplanes when out of the clouds but it is ATC's job to keep everyone inside the clouds separated from each other.  The system only works if pilots don't deviate from their clearance, which includes an assigned altitude.  This I explained just as we went into the cloud top.  In addition to obscuring one's view of the horizon clouds have a nasty habit of containing turbulent air.  The airplane rocked a bit.

The real problem with flying in clouds in the New England winter is airframe icing.  Whenever the temperature in a cloud is below 0 C there is a risk of ice accumulation.  The temperature, on average, drops 2 degrees C for every 1000' rise in altitude.  So at 6000' it was about 12 degrees colder than on the ground or -2 C.  A simple airplane such as my Diamond Star DA40 does not have heated wings, a heated propeller, rubber boots along the wings that can crack ice, or a system for spreading antifreeze out onto the wings.  It does have "pitot heat" to make sure that the instruments for measuring airframe and altitude don't have their air intakes frozen shut.  I had turned this on just before entering the clouds but it is only helpful for maintaining airplane control while getting out of the ice.  My rule for instrument flying in the winter is that I won't go unless it is above freezing at 3000' above the ground.  Because there are no mountains or other obstacles over the coastal sprawl of the East Coast it is always possible to descend to 3000' without fear of hitting something.

After 15 minutes in the clouds small amounts of ice began to accumulate on the "wing walk" grippy surface next to the cockpit.  Airliners and the one small airplane on the radio (New York Approach) were complaining about ice accumulation and asking for lower altitudes.  The helpful controller said that people a few miles ahead were reporting ice and asked me if I wanted lower.  I was cleared first to 5000' where the temperature was 0 and the ice accumulation stopped but the built-up ice did not come off.  At 4000' the temperature was +2 and the ice quickly disappeared.  We were still inside the clouds at 4:30 pm when the sun was supposed to set so we noticed only a rapid darkening of our surroundings.

Teterboro airport tends to be busy and a day with low clouds when everyone is coming in IFR slows things down considerably.  In theory ATC should have parked us in a holding pattern somewhere.  I would have been responsible for driving around in fairly precise ovals, 1 minute long on the flat side, at some precise point in space.  In practice the New York controllers are so good and they have complete RADAR coverage so to be nice they just gave me vectors that took me northwest of Teterboro until it was my turn to come back in.  With vectors they just say "fly heading 270" and you point the airplane west at the present altitude.  After about a 10-minute vector delay we were turned back in towards Teterboro and cleared down to 3000'.  We didn't break out of the clouds completely until we were at 2000' and heading in towards Runway 19 at Teterboro.  It can be a challenge to locate a runway amidst the clutter of parking lot and street lights in an urban area but the Teterboro runway is 7000' long and has a fancy centerline lighting system.  In any case it isn't necessary to visually identify the runway until several hundred feet above the ground.  An ILS is flown by tracking two radio beams emanating from just in front of the runway.  The localizer beam gives left/right guidance and the glideslope beam gives up/down guidance.  Deviation from the center of these beams is displayed on a little round dial on the airplane dashboard.  Not wanting to trust my perceptions in the dark, I flew the gauges while running the pre-landing checklist.

Once on the ground we taxied off the runway as fast as possible because there was a huge Gulfstream business jet right behind us, moving at more than 2X the speed of the little Diamond Star.  Both of us taxied into Jet Aviation, one of the airport gas stations at Teterboro.  Their parking lot this Tuesday before Thanksgiving was crammed with business jets and turbine-powered helicopters.  There were probably $2-3 billion worth of airplanes on their ramp and in their hangars.  The Jet Aviation staff took our bags from the plane through the palatial terminal into a waiting Hertz rental car, a little over 2 hours after we'd taken off from Bedford and about 3 hours after we'd left Cambridge.

Next stop is Washington, DC.  We have a big family dinner there at 4 pm on Thanksgiving Day but the weather forecast calls for clouds, rain, strong headwinds, turbulence, gusty surface winds, etc.

Do we all drive like idiots? (airplane
insurance cost)

Do we all drive like idiots? (airplane
insurance cost) 04/09/2004 04:11 PM

Just got my bill for next year's airplane insurance.  This is a vehicle valued at $200,000 and a typical minor accident, e.g., striking the propeller on an obstacle or the runway when landing badly, costs about $30,000 to repair.  You can't pause or pull over when flying an airplane.  A few clouds in the sky and you can find yourself disoriented and plunging toward the water like JFK, Jr.  Now that I've got 550 hours of experience in this type of plane and 750 hours of total time AVEMCO has cut my rates to... $1737 with a $1000 deductible and $1 million of liability coverage.

If I were to get a new minivan here in Cambridge, despite my lack of claims and tickets I expect that it would cost about the same to insure, with much lower liability limits.  The minivan costs just over $30,000 with every conceivable option.  A minor accident costs $1000 to fix.  Many people are able to operate an automobile safely despite never having had any formal training.

Conclusion:  To come to a situation where these vehicles are equally costly to insure, we must really be driving like idiots.

[Update:  Okay, I answered my own question by driving to Mt. Wachusett today for some skiing.  Rolling along the familiar ground in a quiet comfortable minivan, belted in and protected by airbags as well, it never crossed my mind that we were moving at a potentially lethal velocity and that death could be just around the corner.  Whereas in the airplane I'm always scared and therefore cautious.]

American versus Canadian airplane
factories

American versus Canadian airplane
factories 06/05/2005 11:56 PM

Picking up an airplane in Duluth, Minnesota is a bit different from my last experience picking one up in London, Ontario.  The Canadian factory didn't have a "Guns are banned from these premises" sign out front.  Another difference is that the Cirrus factory has an F-16 parked right next to it, belonging to George W. Bush's beloved Air National Guard.  This F-16 is apparently in need of some maintenance because it has been sitting out for the entire winter.  Only our government can afford to leave a $30 million airplane outside exposed to the harsh northern elements!

One thing that is more or less the same is the miserable weather.  For the morning flight today the weather was 100' overcast and 1/4 mile visibility.  I went to the Duluth Aquarium instead and then to the Richard I. Bong museum in Superior, Wisconsin.  Bong was a Wisconsin farm boy who went on to become the U.S.'s most successful P-38 fighter pilot in the Pacific War, downing more than 40 Japanese planes.  The museum staff, having noticed my coupon from Cirrus, hauled out an old movie on "how to fly your new P-38" from Lockheed circa 1942.  The product was described in the video as a "real fighting man's airplane" and a "man's airplane".  Close-to-the-ground maneuvers were described as "not likely to be a habit-forming."  The plane worked well for Bong, who survived all of his combat missions.  Sadly he was killed while test-flying a jet-powered fighter in 1945.  Major Bong was 24 years old.
