#SundayAviationReading Celebrating #aviation 's legacy is important. It includes preserving local stories that made history. Asas Para Porto Seguro (in Portuguese) tells how the former Arraial d’Ajuda airfield in Bahia, Brazil shaped this coastal community. 🇧🇷✈️

By the way, this safety risk management process had quite a ripple effect on practices: https://skybrary.aero/sites/default/files/bookshelf/5931.pdf. ✈️

#SundayAviationReading With operational safety in the spotlight (for good reasons), you might want to read the first consensus report of the National Academies on Emerging Hazards in Commercial Aviation : https://nap.nationalacademies.org/catalog/26673/emerging-hazards-in-commercial-aviation-report-1-initial-assessment-of-safety-data-and-analysis-processes. 🚁🛩✈️

This week's #SundayAviationReading is in Portuguese. Pouso Forçado tells the story of the demise of Panair do Brasil, one of the greatest airlines of its time. In 1965, the military dictatorship arbitrarily & illegally killed this safe & efficient air carrier overnight after 35 years of operations. ✈️🇧🇷

#SundayAviationReading Engineer Igor I. Sikorsky is a true aviation legend. And so is his S-64 Skycrane! Don't be deceived by the number of pages of this fairly short book by John A. McKenna. The document is full of details and stories about this incredible machine! 💪🚁🏗 #Avgeeks #Aviation #AviationHistory #Engineering #STEM #VerticalFlight

#SundayAviationReading Does the perfect book at the intersection of planetary exploration & #rotorcraft engineering exist? Well... Maybe! I am half-way through this book on the development of #Ingenuity & #Dragonfly. And this is your daily reminder that humankind did fly an aircraft on another planet! 🚁🚀 #aerospace #avgeeks #engineering #research #spaceships #STEM

#SundayAviationReading Enjoying this 2015 book by Mike Gruntman published with AIAA on the rise of the Soviet missile #defense. A great deal of historical and technical details. And many sad stories, as always with Bolshevik regimes (and dictatorships in general). 🚀 #aerospace #avgeek #aviation #ussr
