Why Aircraft Fly Slowly Looks at the sky?

Of course we Ever See The aircraft crossed the sky right? it seems really really slow flying. let's discuss. When we see something moving object, we ought to realize is the change point of view of our eyes on the moving objects. Objects that are close to us, although not moving too fast, would make us play the head just to see where the object is now located.

Why Aircraft Fly Slowly Looks at the sky?

When you see something moving objects in the distance, viewing angle changes that occur not as if the object is near us, so we feel that the object was moving slowly, as the plane was flying far above us.

Another example is the moon. The moon moves around the earth with an average speed of 1022 Km / h, but because of the distance between us and the distant moon, the moon does not seem to move at all, because we almost do not feel the change in perspective.

How it Works Black Box Aircraft

"Although the so-called black box but the box is not really black but orange. It is intended to facilitate the search when the plane crashed. "- Wikipedia.

Well, for those who had been thought that the black box is black, was wrong. But why is it called a black box? Perhaps, because the former first black, or indeed from the first there, it was orange. It could be because of the orange, but since the plane crash, the color changed to black.

Black Box

Actually, the connotation of a black box or the tragedy here is that the mystery is connoted with black. Black box (black box) on an airplane pilot serves to record the activities of both conversations - cockpit voice recorder (CVR), and motion-aircraft flight data recorder (FDR).
Data from the FDR and CVR are stored in the memory boards in the crash-survivable memory unit (CSMU) - black shield-shaped cylindrical box1memory. With this tool more than 700 kinds of parameter data can be stored. Crash Survivable Memory Unit (CSMU) contains a memory board is surrounded by thermal insulation and steel armor that can withstand the impact of the crash a thousand times the force of gravity and survive in the sea at a depth of 14000-20000 feet (4.270 m-6096 m).
All data collected by sensors in the sensor plane is sent to the flight-data acquisition unit (FDAU) located in the nose of the aircraft. FDAU as an intermediary before the data is stored in a black box.

How it Works Black Box
That is why every plane crash, this is a black box in the search by the investigator, because recent data before the crash captured in this black box. Usually the data available on the black box (black box) is kept secret by the investigators for various reasons.

About Aircraft 'AIR FORCE ONE'

Striped blue and white aircraft types Boeing VC-25 is a modification of the Boeing 747-200B is often referred to as Air Force One, even though itself was Air Force One callsign for aircraft carrying the U.S. president, whatever his plane.

Accompanied or preceded by a C-17 Globemaster III or C-5 Galaxy that brings all the equipment of the president, like the helicopter Marine One, the presidential limousine, and the U.S. Secret Service agents

When Air Force One will land around the airport air space must be vacated. Another flight is delayed or canceled, and the area around the parking AF I also have to be sterilized and even guarded by agents of the U.S. Secret Service. Seem wasteful, excessive, and do not appreciate the jurisdiction and sovereignty of the country of transit

U.S. president in the country are receiving up to 300 threats every day, it was clear the threat would be greater if he travels abroad.

Air Force One, is basically a three-level aircraft B747-200B which has been modified with a space area of 4,000 square feet. President and his staff work space dominate the two-level deck. The first level deck or the bottom of the aircraft into cargo and luggage space. While the third level deck or the top, just devoted to the cockpit, lounge, and space communications. (For details, see the sketch plane)

Air Force One that can be fitted with 19 television channels broadcast nearly all the television world. because as soon as the complete electronic equipment is installed, some of the weight of the aircraft is in the form of wires. Offal is wrapped wire plane along the 238 miles, twice longer than the cable wrapped around the B747-200 - standard rig Air Force One. This cable has been given a special coating that is safe from the attacks of electromagnetic pulse (EMP / Electro Magnetic Pulse) and the shock waves emitted by a nuclear explosion.

The usual daily tasks in the Oval Office, White House, worked in the Main Room Presidential Suite. This room is located on the front of the plane. On the back of this room, there is a larger room where the U.S. President and his staff can do the meeting. Amazingly, in this plane, White House senior staff are also allowed every president has their own workspace.

You might ask, why not choose the U.S. president's office B747-400 which is much more sophisticated? Just for the record, B747-400 has a longer body, all-digital cockpit (fully-glass cockpit), and can reach a distance of 3,000 km further than the B747-100 is 'only' 10 500 km. After all, the B747-400 has flown two years before the B747-200B on duty (in 1990). Is not there enough time to switch it to the latest series?
no satisfactory answer to that question, however, from the book Modern Military Aircraft (2004) can be traced to the story that the choice may be related to the project of the U.S. aircraft flying commandos had already done the U.S. Air Force in the early 1970s. At that time they already abysmal buying four B747-200B aircraft to be reconstructed into an emergency command that has been designed specifically for the condition of the world devastated by nuclear war. Final aim of the project is fully-electronic plane E-E-4A and 4B

Air Force One can fly at a maximum speed of 1014 km / h (mach 0.92) or close to one times the speed of sound.

Must have more than 2000 hours of flying, flying experience to fly around the world and impeccable records, that requirement if you want to be a pilot Air Force One.
Air Force One considered the world's safest airplanes.

For seating arrangements, reporters sat in the back, while officials and VIP seating in the front row. The more important the closer the position of a person he sat with the president.
Air Force One Air Force based in the field to the 89 Airlift Wing, Andrews Air Force Base, Maryland, the hangar to the 19. Located 16 miles from the White House.

Because the Air Force's Air Force One, each time the aircraft is flying will be considered a military mission.
Air Force One aircraft that is made ​​specifically with the defense capabilities including anti-missile equipment.

For telecommunications Air Force One had 87 different phone lines, 28 of which have a secure connection and encrypted with an infinite range.

the largest transport airplane in the world

The An-225 Mriya Russian is a strategic airlift transport aircraft which was built by the Antonov Design Bureau, and is by some measures the largest airplane ever built. The design, built to transport the Buran orbiter, was an enlargement of the successful An-124 Ruslan.
The Antonov An-225 is commercially available for flying any over-sized payload due to the unique size of its cargo deck. Currently there is only one aircraft operating but a second mothballed airframe is being reconditioned and is scheduled for completion around late 2008General characteristics

Supply Chain in Aircraft MRO part II

The aviation business environment change rapidly due to political issue, after tragedy 11 September. The aviation business grow and grow. The facts are aircraft manufacturer improve their technology to get the best aircraft that selected by airlines, aircraft supplier also increase in number in the last year, many company launch their airline business, many airport developed, many MRO company established, political issue about open sky agreement and regulator more strictly implement their regulation.

Supply Chain in Aircraft MRO part II

Supply Chain Management in Aircraft MRO How is the aviation system run, how each entity in this system work? Lets see picture above. In the aviation system there are four (4) main entity, supply entity, demand entity, inside entity and outside entity. Supply entity, are entity that produce air transport service directly or indirectly. This entity contains many business form. Airline, airport, maintenance and ground service, aircraft manufacturer, and regulator.Demand entity, are entity that used air transport service directly or indirectly. This entity are passenger, travel agent and others customer that used air transport service.Inside entity, are entity that influence directly in aviation system, inside entity is government and other political organization.Outside entity, are entity that influence indirectly in aviation system, this entity can be controlled by implemented technology. Outside entity is nature conditions like climatology and geographical conditions. Each entity explained above have their important rule. Its affected each other. To get harmonic aviation systems, each entity must be collaborated smoothly. Airline can’t run their operation without other entity supporting. Airline must develop the best collaboration with airport, regulator and maintenance provider. In big term, Supply entity must be give service that needed by demand entity. Demand entity must be given information about their service needed to supply entity. It is how supply demand in aviation business. On that picture can explain to us?, how small entity in aviation business interact each other?, in example aircraft MRO provider. MRO provider must develop the best fit their supply chain strategy to interact within airline and supplier. MRO provider must be given their best service that approved by aviation regulator, like Indonesian DGAC, FAA and EASA. Supply chain strategy to be important issue because MRO provider product is approve maintenance service, who grant approval? Regulator, Who buy MRO product? Airline and Who support their product? Supplier and aircraft manufacturer, So MRO provider must be develop relationship in objective give the best approved maintenance service and make sustainability of aviation system.
