OUTRAGEOUS HOUSE BILL
INTRODUCED THAT WOULD SEVERELY RESTRICT GENERAL AVIATION
The Experimental Aircraft Association is urging its members and
all aviation enthusiasts to contact their Congressional
representatives and strongly oppose a newly introduced bill by Rep.
Anthony Weiner (D-NY)
This bill ( H.R. 5035 ) would require the
Department of Homeland Security to create a method of screening all
passengers and property on each flight of all passenger aircraft in
the U.S., including general aviation aircraft of all types. It would
also prohibit non-airline aircraft from flying within 1,500 feet of
any structure or building, and prohibit non-airline aircraft from
flying over any U.S. city with a population of 1 million or more.
It would further require that pilots of all aircraft in U.S.
airspace remain in contact with the Federal Aviation Administration,
presumably by radio, regardless of altitude or location.
"The extreme shortsightedness of this bill speaks for itself and
completely counters the government's own security experts, who have
continually stated that general aviation does not pose a significant
security threat to the U.S.," said Doug Macnair, EAA's Vice
President of Government Relations. "It's sad that the solemn
anniversary of 9/11 terrorist attacks is being used to introduce
this bill, which does nothing to enhance security and smacks of
election-year grandstanding."
With 17,000 landing facilities and nearly 200,000 aircraft in the
United States, EAA maintains that it is inconceivable that the
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and FAA could ever fund and
administer such a plan. DHS and the Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) have repeatedly indicated that general aviation
does not warrant such levels of security when compared to other
transportation modes and threats.
"We as a nation need to focus our limited resources on the most
serious vulnerabilities and threats to our security," Macnair added.
"TSA has made extensive studies of those threats and nowhere has
that agency ever suggested such draconian measures as those proposed
in this bill."
People can express their opposition to this bill to their
congressional representatives by finding their contact information
at http://www.house.gov .

Click to see video GA
security improved since September 11 Pilots play key role
With the anniversary of the September 11, 2001, terror attacks
falling on Saturday, the news media have already started reporting
on our national security and vulnerabilities. Some of their stories
have, and will, focus on aviation.
General aviation security has improved significantly since September
11, and it's happened because of positive actions taken by the GA
community. Heavy-handed government intervention hasn't been
required.
"I'm the ultimate optimist," said AOPA President Phil Boyer. "I
think it's going to get better. We all have a duty to keep our eyes
and ears open. And that's working."
Referring to AOPA's Airport Watch and the toll-free
866/GA-SECUR(E) hotline, Boyer noted that the Transportation
Security Administration is receiving some seven calls per day from
pilots reporting possible suspicious activities. "That shows pilots
are on the lookout. Recently three attempts were made to test the
system, and the TSA was very pleased that all three were reported to
the hotline. General aviation has changed proactively since 9/11."
You can see a video clip with more of Phil Boyer's reflections on
September 11 and its effect on general aviation [ low

AOPA working the Hill to defeat ridiculous GA security bill
The moment word first leaked out that Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.)
wanted to impose security restrictions on general aviation that
exceed even those of the airlines, AOPA's Legislative Affairs staff
sprung into action, lobbying against the bill.
"This is preposterous, unrealistic, and unnecessary," said AOPA
President Phil Boyer. "General aviation is not a threat. The TSA has
already said so.
"The AOPA staff has outlined our strong opposition to the
legislation in meetings with Republican and Democratic staff of the
House aviation subcommittee. The association is also using its
extensive network of relationships with key members of the
subcommittee in fighting the bill."
Weiner's bill, H.R. 5035, would mandate the same screening for all
passengers and property aboard GA aircraft that is required for the
airlines. It would also prohibit any aircraft other than an airliner
from flying over cities with populations of 1 million or more, or
operating within 1,500 feet of any building.
"In light of everything that has already been done, requirements
like those Rep. Weiner would impose would kill all of general
aviation."
(September 9)
AOPA's advocacy deters unwarranted restriction at Michigan airport
It will be business — or pleasure — as usual for pilots flying into
Oakland/Troy Airport (7D2) during the Ryder Cup Tournament, thanks
to a unified effort from AOPA's advocacy team.
Chuck Griswold, Airport Support Network (ASN) volunteer at 7D2, and
several other local AOPA members contacted AOPA when they discovered
that officials in Troy planned to close the airport from 6 p.m. to 8
a.m. during the golf tournament next week.
"We used every resource to reverse the planned nighttime closure of
7D2," said Bill Dunn, AOPA vice president of airports. "The local
officials soon realized that their attempt to enhance security
during the tournament was unwarranted and extreme."
The airport is replacing the closure plan with AOPA's
Airport Watch program . Volunteer pilots have begun signing
up already for "watch times" at the airport. More on Ryder
Cup restrictions
AOPA forces changes in San Jose noise ordinance
Capping a multi-year effort, AOPA successfully forced San Jose
Norman Y. Mineta International Airport (SJC) to abandon its
discriminatory, weight-based noise curfew.
"We understand that noise is a growing issue with many airports, and
we always encourage our members to be good neighbors, 'fly
friendly,' and reduce their noise footprint," said Bill Dunn, AOPA
vice president of airports. |

Cockpit
Concepts: September 5, 2004
Avoiding CFIT (Controlled Flight Into Terrain).
In the last issue, Norm Komich wrote about high workload and
resulting loss of situation awareness. One tragic result of
diminished awareness is CFIT. Lives are lost when an aircraft in
good working order impacts the terrain or ground obstacles.
As I stated on the Aviation.Org website (Director's Letter), "this
type of accident goes right to the heart of awareness, judgment and
decision making." CFIT accidents have received a great deal of
attention yet, statistically, the associated accident rate remains
unchanged. Industry efforts not withstanding, "something is missing
[as] the message is not getting to the cockpit."
Perhaps we can use this forum to shine some light on this problem
from a different angle--that is, by providing pilot input. Many of
us have lost friends--capable pilots--to CFIT. Or, we may have
unwittingly compromised our own safety and not suffered similar
consequences. What have we learned? What precautions do we take?
What are the "tricks of the trade," so to speak?
It would be both interesting and educational to get your input on
this very real safety subject. To assemble your thoughts, a new CFIT
Pilot Lounge thread has been started for your use. Or, if you
prefer, a note to safety@aviation.org would also work. Thanks in
advance for sharing your ideas on avoiding CFIT.

Cyprus Airways Says Cash-Flow Adequate...
National carrier Cyprus Airways on Thursday dismissed reports it
would soon be unable to pay staff if it continued to run up losses,
saying that its cash-flow was adequate. Speculation has abounded on
the fate of the government-controlled airline since it reported a
first-half pre-tax loss of CPY30.11 million last week (USD$64.1
million), with newspapers on Thursday speculating that difficulties
were looming in making its payroll. Cyprus Airways is taking
"appropriate measures" to ensure adequate liquidity, the airline
said in a statement. "It remains at satisfactory levels and allows
the company to fully meet its financial obligations." The carrier
sees a return to profitability in 2006 if it pursues a controversial
survival plan, which includes redundancies and the disposal of
aircraft. Cyprus Airways cited a massive bill for a new fleet and
the operational costs of a new subsidiary in Greece to explain the
first-half profit drop.
The airline's decisions to acquire a new fleet and create Greek
subsidiary Hellas Jet in 2002 and 2003 have drawn criticism from the
present government, which came to power after the airline had made
the arrangements. A new Cyprus Airways board appointed by the
government has distanced itself from its predecessors' decisions.
"The financial state of the group is directly related to wrong
decisions and actions of the past, particularly relating to the
renewal of the fleet and the creation of Hellas Jet," the airline
said. Airline officials have not ruled out the possibility that
Hellas Jet could be ditched in an overhaul....
German Glider Website Renewed...

German it might still be worth a visit even for English readers. You

Days before the release of the interactive demo for
pmSystems our site now has an introductory manual/document as well
as a Video online. These help explain the idea behind this software
in a far more concrete way.
pmSystems provides us with the ability to simulate the
complex system logics found in heavy transport aircraft. It can be
used both as a pure software interface and / or to provide logics
for custom hardware. It is very flexible and the overhead panels of
a variety of aircraft can be represented by one software using
different configuration files for different types of aircraft. This
is true both for the graphics and the systems logic.
