Hypersonic flight vehicles could enable a range of future aviation and space missions. However, the extreme environmental conditions associated with high Mach number flight pose a major challenge for vehicle aerodynamics, materials and structures, and flight control, particularly within the hybrid ramjet/scramjet/rocket propulsion systems.
Aerial robots (ARs) or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) were initially developed for military applications such as surveillance, targeting, and strike missions. As the use of ARs has become more common in other civilian and industrial applications, the need of understanding all the technical elements and systems involved in these aircraft has become more evident for the academic community and th…
This manual provide guidance for the planning and establisment of stolport, unique airport designed to serve aeroplanes that have exceptional short-field performance capabilities. While stolport and STOL aircraft have not been precisely defined by ICAO, it is recognised that capability of certain aeroplane to operate safely in areas constrained by limited space, restricted terrain or both, offe…
To improve the situation with respect to runway incursions and to encourage the implementation of relevant provisions, ICA embarked on an education and awareness campaign which began with a comprehensive search for the best available educational material for inclusion in an interactive runway safety toolkit. information on this toolkist is provided in Appendix J to this manual
