Abstract

Provision of air navigation services entered a new era of performance scheme. The performance scheme provides binding targets on four key performance areas of safety, capacity, environment and cost-efficiency. It is imposed that targets are fully achieved, but it is not prescribed how, this being typical for the performance based and goal oriented regulation. Those key performance areas are interlaced by proportional and inversely proportional interdependencies. Namely, for example and simplified into one sentence; if one aims to increase sector capacity with existing human resources (constant staff costs) and not investing into the technology (constant support cost) to achieve improved cost-efficiency of service provision, the resulting overloaded system might unlock the Pandora box of latent safety issues. Since failure is not an option, we - the general, migrating and traveling public, airspace users, airport operators, air navigation services providers and the economy - will gain attaining the goals of performance scheme in the process. However, un-answered cardinal question is what is the winning strategy? This book provides do-not-forget-peculiarities insight into the elements of new business model of air navigation services provision as evolution of the latter became essential.

Abstract

In its first centennial, aerospace has matured from a pioneering activity to an indispensable enabler of our daily life activities. In the next twenty to thirty years, aerospace will face a tremendous challenge - the development of flying objects that do not depend on fossil fuels. The twenty-three chapters in this book capture some of the new technologies and methods that are currently being developed to enable sustainable air transport and space flight. It clearly illustrates the multi-disciplinary character of aerospace engineering, and the fact that the challenges of air transportation and space missions continue to call for the most innovative solutions and daring concepts.

Abstract

Emmanuel Chadeau, historien de l’économie, a laissé une œuvre originale. Spécialiste mondialement reconnu de l’histoire de l’aviation, il a exploré la genèse des grands programmes aérospatiaux européens (Concorde, Airbus, Ariane), mais aussi démonté les ressorts de l’économie de marché en France : persistance de l'entreprise familiale, organisation du commerce de détail, structuration des échanges, rôle économique de l’État, rapports entre décideurs publics et privés, etc. Le présent livre illustre la richesse du parcours intellectuel d’E. Chadeau : - d’une part, il reprend ses principales contributions, souvent difficilement accessibles, parfois publiées pour la première fois en français, retrace sa carrière et son oeuvre foisonnante - d’autre part, il rassemble une série d’articles inédits et de témoignages rédigés pour la circonstance par ses amis historiens et ses élèves, développant des thèmes qui lui étaient chers, de l'Ancien Régime à la fin du xxe siècle : étude de branches productives, stratégies et réseaux chez les milieux d’affaires de toutes envergures et les grands commis de l’État , économie des collectivités locales, enjeux mémoriels de l’histoire économique et sociale.

Abstract

Aviation has grown leaps and bounds within the last decade. Aviation courses and training at all levels have shown an exponential increase around the globe. There has been a restricted focus on writing books in this sector of the economy, mainly due to the shortage of expertise in this specialist and complex area. This book was written with the purpose of meeting this need of the aviation sector. Due to the diversified nature of aviation knowledge, which includes flying, engineering, airports, allied trades for aircraft and airports, airline and airport management and operations, education, etc., one text alone will not suffice and do justice to address all these areas. It is envisaged to develop subsequent parts of this book to cover all these knowledge areas. This book is the first installment of any subsequent books and explores issues including airline management and operations, airline business models, airport systems, flight operational procedures, aircraft maintenance, runway safety management systems, and air traffic management. In particular, attention will be given to aspects such as analysis of air traffic in a domestic market, runway safety management systems, critical success factors for multiple MRO service providers, key pain points of the industry to be addressed to move into the future, new research on hub airports for international flights, new business models for airlines, and runway safety management systems. This book is useful to aviation managers, educators, students, and professionals interested in any of the above issues.

Abstract

À la fois géographe et pilote, André Humbert parcourt en avion léger, depuis quarante ans, des itinéraires qui s’étendent de la France du Nord-Est jusqu’au Sahara marocain, de l’océan Atlantique à la mer Adriatique. Cette pratique inhabituelle, faite aussi de contraintes et d’inquiétudes aéronautiques, lui permet de bénéficier d’une hauteur de regard qui est un atout essentiel pour comprendre comment les sociétés organisent leurs territoires. Le géographe jouit ainsi d’un point de vue privilégié sur les campagnes méditerranéennes, les villes, les littoraux et même les ombres révélées d’aménagements disparus depuis des siècles. De son tapis volant, il fait part de ses réflexions géographiques sur la « terre des hommes ». Il donne quelques clés pour mieux comprendre « la face de la terre ». A la vez geógrafo y piloto de avión ligero, André Humbert sobrevuela desde hace 40 años los paisajes que se extienden desde Francia al Sahara y desde el Atlántico al Adriático. Esta práctica, poco común y a veces no exenta de inquietudes, le permite beneficiarse de una cierta mirada de altura, ventaja esencial para comprender cómo organizan las sociedades sus territorios. Desde su alfombra mágica, nos ofrece algunas reflexiones geográficas para comprender mejor «el rostro de la tierra».
