Saturday evening again, so I'm off to make my evening meal, then settle in front of the TV with a glass or three. Usually I leave you with aircraft to identify, but for a change, can you identify the airport/aerodrome/airfield. Answers, as usual, sometime tomorrow. #Photography #PhotographyOnMastodon #Aviation #Aircraft #Airports #Aerodromes

Read this report from @USGAO on the state of energy #resilience at #airports: https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-23-105203. I was interviewed by the #research team during this project exploring a critical issue for the future of our #aviation system. Enhancing electrical resilience is a must-do at aviation facilities in the context of the "electrification of everything" (EoE). 💪✈️🔌

It has been 10 years already since my article on airfield safety during construction made the cover of FSF's AeroSafety World magazine: https://flightsafety.org/asw-article/working-safely-on-an-operative-runway/.
What has been done since then? Here is a short version of what we did to further improve operational #safety: https://skybrary.aero/sites/default/files/bookshelf/5931.pdf.

#DYK São Paulo, Brazil provides a good overview of what #UAM traffic could look like. Downtown SP accommodates >400,000 annual #helicopter operations in close proximity w/ 2 hub #airports. These ops have been performed with a remarkable level of #safety. 🚁

All airports have these (#diesel) PSU for the aircon while plane engines are off, but these are loud, stinky, polluting, and expensive (and often there may not be enough, leading to super hot cabin and people fainting -> google it).
I’m all for electric, but can’t we just connect a socket?

What if you could combine most of the benefits of jet bridges & mobile stairs into one single accessible equipment compatible with smaller airports? Federally-owned Brazilian #airport operator Infraero did it a few years ago with the ELO system! 😉✈️ #accessibility #airports #AirTravel #CustomerExperience

#Airports getting these Russian flights with brakes off should brace themselves for the many rwy excursions to come: https://twitter.com/igorsushko/status/1686867875485880320?s=46. This is a good time to review ARFF & recovery procedures. Bonus question: How many of these #aircraft are leased planes illegally appropriated & re-registered? ✈️

Answer is "yes": https://airlive.net/news/2023/08/04/due-to-sanctions-some-aeroflot-aircraft-may-have-to-land-with-brakes-deactivated/. This should not come as a surprise. #Airports accommodating flights operated by Russian air carriers should keep runway excursion & #aircraft recovery SOPs handy. Accidents will happen. ✈️
