A320 CFIT: Deadly Illusion On August 23, 2000nan Airbus A320-212, crashed into the Persian Gulf near Bahrain International Airport, killing all 143 occupants. The flight, operating from Cairo to Bahrain, failed to land successfully and executed a go-around that led directly to the accident. The investigation revealed multiple failures in compliance with Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and issues in crew resource management (CRM). During the critical approach and go-around phases, the flight crew did not maintain standard flight parameters. The captain significantly exceeded standard descent speeds and did not stabilize the aircraft on the correct approach path. An unconventional low-altitude orbit maneuver was attempted close to the runway to rectify the approach but was unsuccessful. The proper go-around procedure was not executed, contributing to the eventual crash. Further exacerbating the situation, the first officer did not adequately challenge or highlight these deviations from SOPs to the captain, indicative of inadequate CRM. During the go-around, spatial disorientation affected the crew, a somatogravic illusion leading the captain to incorrectly perceive the aircraft as pitching up, prompting a fatal nose-down input. The investigation furthermore revealed deficiencies in CRM training the airline's flight data analysis and safety department were found to be lacking. This indicated a broader issue of non-compliance and inadequate responses to corrective actions, which were not effectively enforced by the Directorate General Of Civil Aviation and Meteorology of Oman.

??Elevate Your Knowledge: Exploring Different Types of Control from ATC Tower Greetings LinkedIn community!???? From sequencing takeoffs and landings to managing ground movements, ATC towers provide different types of control that keep our skies safe and organized. Let’s dive deeper into the critical role this unseen hero of aviation plays in our daily flights. 1) Tower Control This is the most well-known and visible form of air traffic control. Tower controllers manage aircraft movement on the ground and in the immediate vicinity of the airport including takeoffs, landings, and taxiing. 2) Ground Control This is a subset of tower control with a specific focus on managing aircraft movements on the airport surface. Ground controllers shall ensure safe distances between aircrafts, guide them to and from runways, parking areas, and gates. 3) Clearance Delivery Clearance delivery controllers issue initial clearances for departing aircraft including route, altitude, and restrictions. Every pilot must receive the pre-departure clearance before its aircraft departs. 4) Approach Control Approach controllers are responsible for guiding aircrafts during arrival and departure in the terminal area around the airport. Their duties are to ensure safe separation and provide guidance through arrival and departure procedures. 5) Departure Control Departure controllers manage the initial climb phase after an aircraft’s takeoff, guiding them from the terminal area to en-route airspace. 6) En-Route Control En-route controllers manage aircraft in the en-route phase of flight. They shall provide guidance on altitude changes, safe separation, and manage the traffic flow along established airways.

??? The Critical Role of Surface Wind in Aircraft Landings/Departures ?? In aviation, surface wind speed and direction are more than just data points—they're critical factors that can make or break a safe landing. When an aircraft approaches a runway, the surface wind dictates its trajectory, speed, and stability. A headwind provides additional lift, allowing for a slower, more controlled descent. Conversely, a tailwind increases landing speed, reducing reaction time for pilots and the margin for error. Crosswinds present their own set of challenges, requiring precise maneuvering to ensure the aircraft aligns correctly with the runway. The strength and direction of the wind influence the landing technique, the decision to go around, or even the selection of a different runway. Pilots, air traffic controllers, and ground staff work in sync, constantly monitoring surface wind conditions to make real-time decisions. This collaboration is vital to maintaining the safety and efficiency of operations, especially in challenging weather. Of course wind is essential for selecting -runway in use- for Aerodrome traffic controllers, as stated in International Civil Aviation Organization Doc. 4444 - "7.2.2 Normally, an aircraft will land and take off into wind unless safety, the runway configuration, meteorological conditions and available instrument approach procedures or air traffic conditions determine that a different direction is preferable. In selecting the runway-in-use, however, the unit providing aerodrome control service shall take into consideration, besides surface wind speed and direction, other relevant factors such as the aerodrome traffic circuits, the length of runways, and the approach and landing aids available." As an Air traffic controller you should always pass relevant and correct wind information to flight crews which are departing or landing at your airport and you should monitor wind changes and variations in direction and speed.???? #AviationSafety #AirTrafficControl #Aviation #avgeek

What is Turbulence? Turbulence or sometimes referred to as "airpocket" is a common occurrence in aviation, often causing discomfort and concern among passengers. Turbulence is the irregular motion of air resulting from various atmospheric conditions, such as jet streams, thunderstorms, and mountain waves. It can range from mild bumps to more severe jolts, affecting the stability of an aircraft. To ensure aircrew and passenger safety, it's crucial to understand turbulence risks and the safety precautions we can implement. Assessing Turbulence Risk Weather Forecasting: Advanced meteorological tools and technologies allow pilots and air traffic controllers to predict and monitor turbulence. Real-time data and sophisticated models help in anticipating turbulence zones, enabling better flight planning. Pilot Training: Pilots undergo rigorous training to handle turbulence safely. This includes understanding the dynamics of turbulent air, executing appropriate maneuvers, and ensuring clear communication with passengers and crew. Aircraft Design: Modern aircraft are engineered to withstand significant levels of turbulence. Structural integrity, robust systems, and advanced avionics contribute to maintaining stability and passenger safety during turbulent conditions. Passenger Safety Measures: Airlines emphasize the importance of wearing seatbelts during flights. Safety briefings and signs are crucial in ensuring passengers are prepared and secure during unexpected turbulence. Understanding turbulence and its associated risks is vital for maintaining passenger safety. Through advanced forecasting, thorough pilot training, resilient aircraft design, and proactive safety measures, the aviation industry remains committed to delivering a safe and comfortable flying experience.

#AIRLINES operating in #CANADA - Heads-Up... "Aircraft may need to be Radio Altimeter Tolerant by December 31st 2025 in order to be alleviated from operational limitations at airports where 5G has been deployed. Non-Radio Altimeter Tolerant commercial aircraft may be limited to transporting cargo only on January 1st, 2026, and may be prohibited from transporting passengers (excluding aircraft personnel, as well as medical personnel and patients for medical evacuation operations) at airports in proximity of where 5G has been deployed. January 1st, 2026 represents a planned sunset date of current spectrum mitigations at which time, Radio Altimeter Tolerant aircraft may require re-evaluation of necessary operational limitations and/or mandatory retrofit requirements." #5G #6G #telecommunications #Canadian5G #Airports #Runways #Restrictions #telcos #ISED #FCC #NavCanada #TransportCanada #Avionics #RadioAltimeters #RADALT #HereWeGoAgain

The Baltic Sea region has recently faced significant GPS jamming and spoofing issues, impacting the accuracy and reliability of certain points of aviation data. One crucial data point affected is Navigation Integrity Category (NIC). ? Why does this matter? NIC measures an aircraft’s location accuracy and is vital for aviation safety. For instance, a NIC value below 7 can lead to errors greater than 0.2 nautical miles, compromising aviation data accuracy. With Spire Aviation data, we demonstrate the increasing radius of error over a map of New York for scale, illustrating how lower NIC values result in larger uncertainties in determining aircraft positions.?
