She just breezes off to the office with a negligent farewell: "You're my senior VP!" So the little girl befriends the Aviator next door: a wacky old eccentric (voiced by Jeff Bridges) who keeps a semi-functioning aircraft in his back garden.
The building's curved interior balconies have earned it comparisons to a cruise ship, but right now it's functioning as an aircraft carrier for Malcolm Morley's new paintings of fighter jets and pilots.
But for now, a lot of unknowns remain, including whether the Lion Air crash was caused by windshear, whether the windshear warning system was functioning on the aircraft and perhaps the biggest question for the airline industry – whether windshear may again become a serious concern.
The plane, called the Advanced Technology Demonstrator-X, or ATD-X, will not be a prototype of a production aircraft, functioning instead as a vehicle for testing stealth capabilities. .
The airport is now functioning, and transport aircraft are bringing in urgent aid and supplies.
All communication systems on the aircraft were functioning normally.
However, similar functions for aircraft operating in unmanaged airspace have received comparatively little analysis despite the fact that these functions are stressed to a greater physical degree, and perhaps more frequently, than in managed airspace.
Specifying proximity warning functions for aircraft in managed airspace has received considerable attention.
In the first scheduling scheme, the values of the state feedback and observer gain matrices are interpolated between the fixed-point designs as a function of aircraft speed.
Based on test results, a simplified expression was developed to predict subgrade deformation on a CBR of 6 as a function of aircraft passes and airfield mat properties.
The resulting data points were used to calibrate a cost function for aircraft trip expenses as they vary in seating capacity and distance.
