The 1 minute dialogue. Pilot shortage brings risk issues. Training – over-reliance on automation concerns. Risks growing at flight schools. Pilot fatigue still a significant issue. More turbulence on the way. Drones bring increasing challenges and disruption. Cyber business interruption and data breach threat grows.
The initiative enables travellers to safely and quickly complete the flight check-in process at any location in Dubai, up to 24 hours before their flight. In 2017, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) in collaboration with Airports Council International (ACI) launched the New Experience in Travel and Technologies (NEXTT) initiative.

This system wasn't good enough for the emerging airline industry, whose airplanes flew at higher altitudes across varied routes. This sparked massive advances in weather observation, data dissemination, and forecasting. By the 1930s the airlines all had their own meteorology departments. And true instrument flying arrived in the mid-1930s ...

Here are four key trends that are rapidly gaining a foothold in workplaces worldwide that you need to be aware of:
Reports of suspected in-flight transmission of SARS-CoV-2 are relatively few, which probably reflects the challenges of establishing in-flight transmission; the fact that flight-associated transmission may be rare; and the fact that as the pandemic progressed, many airlines adopted measures to decrease risk (e.g., reduced food and …
They were a Jordanian-owned charter operator in the mid-2000s that operated a fleet of five TriStars. The airline was in the headlines in 2005 for faking a fuel emergency in Peru. The captains allegedly did this to land at an airport that better suited the Gambian football fans on board.
During a "checkpoint review" conducted last Thursday (May 25), however, the company and NASA identified a few "emerging issues that need a path to closure" to resolve before taking that big step, according to NASA. For example, teams will replace a bypass valve in the system that helps cool Starliner's avionics, NASA officials wrote in an ...
