Boeing will yet again raise its B777 production to 8, 3 units per month from 2013 .Sales for the popular twinjet are booming.

“Basically, this is in response to strong customer demand globally .We are increasing our yearly production to 100 777s by 2013,” stated Boeings CEO Jim Albaugh recently. The figures pretty much support Albaughs boastful stance. As of February 2011, 61 customers had placed orders for 1165 of all variants of the 777; with 915 delivered and a backlog of 252.

Since the 777 entered service in 1995 it has become a common sight at international airports across the world. The -200ER, first introduced by British Airways in 1997, has reigned supreme as the most popular version of the 777 with 415 deliveries.

In September 2010 that title was handed over to the -300ER now ranking as the best selling 777. Currently 453 are on the order book with 263 deliveries at the time of writing, and outselling its rival, the Airbus A340.

The future success of the 777 programme lies with the next generation models notably the -200LR,-300ER and the Freighters version.

“The 777 is the backbone of our long haul fleet,” said Bruno Matheu, COO of Air France at the recent delivery of anew 777-300ER.”This new aircraft will support our projected growth on long haul destinations while also upgrading the fleet, which is already one of the youngest in Europe.”Air France was the launch customer for the -300ER and received the very first aircraft in 2004.

The new aircraft has since been deployed on a new direct route between Paris and Ho Chi Minh City from January.

The Air France 2011 summer schedule indicates that the carrier will be operating a total of 61 B777s. The airline is scheduled to receive an additional 11-300ERs through to 2015.The French carrier also operates two new 777 Freighters and a third is expected to arrive in Paris this year.

Industry estimates suggest the 777-300ER has an eight to nine percent fuel burn advantage over the competing A340-600 along with a 20% fuel burn advantage over the 747-400.

The obvious appeal of the 777s (especially the newer versions), is the promise of better economics and greater fuel efficiency-the holy grail of airline operations.

According to the manufacturer, the 300ER is 19% lighter than its closest rival, greatly reducing its fuel requirements .It produces 22% less carbon dioxide per seat and costs 20% les to operate per seat, with a rather generous range of 7930 nautical miles.

The “next gen” models have engine efficiency improvements and design changes aimed at reducing drag and weight, contributing to increased capabilities.

It is with range and performance in mind that Ethiopian Airlines chose to order five 777-200LRs back in 2009-the East African airline received its first aircraft in November last year.ET-ANN is also the 900th B777 to be built.

Ethiopian had very specific requirements due to its geographical position. The capital Addis Ababa is 8000 feet above sea level, a situation that makes optimum engine performance very difficult. According to the airline, the -200LRs provide the performance that is ideal at such hot and high altitudes. Further, the carrier’s annual growth rate of 20% meant there was a requirement for an aircraft with a capacity of over 300 passengers. The current 767-300ERs in the fleet are too small to accommodate this growth, so the 777s were selected.

The airline also said that the strategic long haul feature of the type would help to take the business to the next level and it was a perfect complement to the 787s and A350s that were currently on order.

Larry Loftis, vice president and general manager for the 777 programme, said: “This was the only aircraft that provided the range and efficiency that Ethiopian needed to service its long haul routes. We are glad to have delivered the 900th aircraft to a first-time 777 customer.”

The new 777s will be used on non-stop services including links to Washington and Beijing.

The 777-200LR holds the record for the longest nonstop flight by a commercial jetliner having an impressive range of 9390 nautical miles. Boeing states that it is capable of connecting virtually any two cities in the world nonstop without refueling.

Three optional auxiliary tanks are located in the rear cargo hold. As with the -300ER and 777F, all three versions feature raked wingtip extensions of 3, 90 metres.

Despite the popularity of the early 777 models in the USA, the “next gen” versions have remained largely out of range by US carriers –up until now. In January this year, American Airlines (AA) became the first US airline to place an order. AA exercised its purchase options for two 777-300ERs.

“We looked at the combination of size, range and performance of this aircraft, as well as the extensive customer amenities it offers,” said Tom Harton, president of ARM Corp., parent company of American Airlines.”The seating capacity will give us growth flexibility in slot-constrained airports and provide us with greater ability to serve new long haul markets.”

Picking Up The Pace

Delays in production have cost implications for both the airline and manufacturer-as seen by the lengthy delay to deliver the 787. The decision to increase the production rate to 8, 3 aircraft every month is a bold one.

A Boeing spokesperson said:” We are always studying possibilities .We look at the market place and figure out how to balance demand versus capability. Knowing the current capacity of a production line-and how much of it is available for increased production, is essential in determining what needs to be done to increase rates.” Boeing also insists that its suppliers are prepared to support the rate increase.

The company will no doubt rely on its successful moving –line production process that was first used for 777 assembly in 2005.Boeing recently put all portions of the 777 final assembly U-shape moving line into motion.A tug pulls each aircraft along the factory floor as mechanics install parts, tighten bolts or lay down wiring. The assembly line advances 460 mm per minute.

Boeing has also been innovating in other ways behind the scenes. Even late at night activity continues at the giant Everett factory. Huge pieces of tooling are being moved in place by what is known as the “third-shift tooling team.”Its function is to make sure that all is in place for the first-shift employees to walk in and begin work.

This mechanical ballet involves maneuvering tooling that includes large sections of scaffolding, platforms and stairs. The whole system is a carefully orchestrated process.The drive to produce even more aircraft efficiently has taken a greater sense of urgency.

Interest From Africa

Despite strong competition from Airbus, the 777 has proved popular in Africa. TAAG Angola Airlines operates three 777-200ERs.The airline is purchasing an additional two -300ERs with purchase rights for two more.

TAAG is spending approximately 4-million on the acquisition, with plans to deploy the new ‘planes to additional European destinations once delivered.

TAAGs current -200ERs operate 10 times weekly from Luanda to Lisbon, twice weekly to Beijing via Dubai and four times weekly to Rio de Janiero.

The push to attract and maintain passenger loyalty in highly premium markets is closely related to what airlines are offering inside the aircraft cabin.

With the arrival of its new 777-300ERs and A330s, Egypt Air has pulled out all the stops. The Egyptian national carrier is receiving six leased-300ERs through to the second quarter of this year.

The new 777s are configured to accommodate 346 seats including 49 lie-flat beds. A fully integrated in-seat entertainment system is installed throughout the cabin.EgyptAir is rolling out internet connectivity on the fleet. Mobile usage allows passengers to make calls using their mobile phones with the same international call rates of their service providers.

Across into the Indian Ocean, Reunion-based Air Austral is taking delivery of two new 777-200LRs-the first arrives in the middle of this year and the second in 2012.

Reaching the Island nations prime French market without a technical stop, was t a critical factor.

“The -200LRs will allow us to fly non-stop to Paris with a full payload from our short runway at Mayotte-that is important, “said Gerard Etheve, Air Astrals CEO.

He also indicated that the new type will have an easy transition into the fleet as the airlines already operates the -200ER .The same crews will be used, as well as common operational support systems.

Air Austral also operates three leased 777-300ERs.

Boeing is on a roll with its popular long haul twinjet that so far has a fairly good Safety record. As of January 2011, the 777 had been in seven incidents with just one hull-loss accident; in all cases there have been no facilities among the passengers or crew.Supposedly now is a good time to be on planet 777.

Flying a remote controlled helicopter can be very exciting and at the same time very challenging if your a beginner. A RC helicopter toy can be intimidating to beginners because of their versatility, compared with other vehicles a helicopter can move in any direction and perform 360 degree turns. Performing maneuvers that other vehicles can not accomplish and the freedom to move through the sky without any obstacles is one of the reasons why these RC helicopters are becoming so popular.

Okay so flying a RC Helicopter can take some time to master but you don’t have to be intimidated to fly one as there are many types of units for beginners and simulators for you to learn from. But the best way to learn is to take flight. For a beginner I would recommend a Dual-rotor (coaxial rotor) helicopter, Coaxial rotors provide a smother flight stability, these type of RC helicopters don’t usually have a tail rotor. Because each coaxial rotor spins in opposite directions the pilot can turn by applying more force to either rotor making it easier to learn to fly. But if you prefer more of a challenge I would try flying a RC helicopter with a single rotor which consists of the main rotor and tail rotor.

These types of remote controlled helicopters are more difficult to fly because you must learn to control both rotors. These rotors work together to provide stability and maneuverability to the RC helicopter, learning to apply the correct force to the main rotor and tail rotor are essential for flying, of course there are other factors that contribute to the stability of your unit such as balancing the blades. I wouldn’t recommend piloting one unless you have flight experience as you could damage the helicopter and can cost you time and money on repairs. A RC helicopter simulator is a great way to practice flying without the fear of costly repairs. A simulator can be bought with or without the helicopter toy and usually has the same transmitter in bedded in the control panel used for flight in the real world.

Flying a RC helicopter toy is a great experience and shouldn’t be a hassle, learning more about this hobby is rewarding. So don’t get intimidated as one of the best ways to learn is to just take flight and experience it for yourself. When flying a helicopter for the first time it’s a great idea to start flying lightly and not apply to much force to the control panel to find out how much throttle is needed to hover. After you have mastered your hovering skill you should consider practicing short distance landings, without the proper landings you can damage your RC helicopter. Practicing on simulator is the best way to practice without having to worry about damaging your RC helicopter. Learning to fly your remote controlled helicopter takes time and patience so take it easy and stick with the basics and you’ll be a master pilot in no time.

It may be noted that in the last two years many a new airlines have come to the fore in a huge way and many huge industries have declared their wishes to enter into this industry. Another major leap was the open sky policy of Government of India permitting the existing private airlines in India to fly to foreign destinations. It does require a special mention that with such expansions planned by major aviation companies and new companies formed there is a vast manpower requirement. Qualified manpower is in huge abundance in India but they need a proper direction to capitalise on this surge in industry. When the human resources needed by these companies were less in number, it was easy to tap from a huge HR bank but when the demand for such HR increased they are finding it extremely difficult to maintain the quality of HR selected for these jobs especially when more and more foreign airlines are flying into India offering high salary packages forcing the better of HR to go with these companies.

It is important to mention here that Indian aviation industry grew by 20% second only to BPO industry in services sector and then comes the concept of no frills airline the market for which is growing vastly. Many no frills airline have already announced their plans to start services to India a few of them are Nok Air, Air Asia-Thailand, Air Arabia etc.

The boom in the aviation sector in India can be gauged by the fact that in one year, the number of people seeking pilot licenses and airhostess training has multiplied three times. In April 2005, it was 300. In April 2006, the number rose to 1045. The civil aviation industry is booming. Indian airlines placed orders for over 400 aircraft worth a whopping billion for its operational requirements. That shows a requirement of 5600 pilots, 19000 airhostess or cabin crew, 24000 technicians, 36000 ground handling crew and various other related vacancies.

And these aviation industry vacancies are all fresh vacancies without including vacancies that may come up in the existing aircrafts.

Also the pay packages offered by the various Indian airlines have also seen an upward trend due to very few number of trained pilots and cabin crew availability. Hence there is an opportunity for you.

Indian Aviation is witnessing a mushrooming of new airlines especially low cost carriers. Besides the existing Air Deccan, newly launched Spicejet and value airline Kingfisher Airlines, there are Indus Airways, Air One, East West Airlines, Go Airways, Magic Air and Crystal Air who are getting ready to fly Indian sky soon. India is to see the launch of at least 14 such airlines. Low cost start-up carrier IndiGo had stunned the aviation industry by placing orders for 100 aircraft at a list price of over billion last year.

It is anyone’s guess as to Human Resource Requirements, especially pilots, airhosess, flight attendants and other cabin crew, that are going to come up in the Aviation Sector. Demand is much above the number of people acquiring training for the same. Jet Airways along with Sahara India has about 47 percent share of the domestic aviation market, followed by Indian Airlines (28 per cent), Air Deccan (11 per cent), Kingfisher (6 per cent) and SpiceJet (5 per cent) as on October2006.

Jet Airways tops the list of domestic and national carrier operators with 8,168 flights operating till June 2005. Indian Airlines ranks second with 7,562 flights, followed by Sahara (3,225 flights), Air Deccan (2,889 flights), Spice Jet (483 flights) and Kingfisher Airlines (267 flights).

The sudden boom in Indian aviation has caught even the normally market savvy global aerospace manufacturers unawares. Recently, both Boeing and Airbus said they had underestimated Indian growth. This means global players are also coming into the scene.     

It wasn’t surprising since statistics compiled by Airbus Industrie showed that Indian carriers accounted for 327 out of the 2,140 firm orders for new aircraft that were placed with it and rival Boeing in 2005. This does not take into account the orders placed for smaller airplanes with other manufacturers like ATR and Dassault – which, too, are flooded with offers from private Indian carriers.

The Brazilian aircraft manufacturer, Embraer, is bullish on the prospects in the Indian market. Their forecast is that between 2006 and 2010, the demand for 30-120-seater planes in India would be around 165, which is about 40 per cent of the demand of the Asia-Pacific region. The value of these aircraft would be around billion. They feel that a majority of the aircraft required will be in the 61-120-seat capacity segment. 70 per cent of these would be required for market growth while there would be a small demand for replacement.

Globalysis Ltd.forecasts growth in India’s aviation market, to be one of the fastest growing in the world, for the years 2007-2008. The Globalysis research report forecasts growth in India’s aviation market of approximately 28% in 2007 and 24% in 2008, for a total of approximately 52 million passengers being carried in 2008.

From the above given facts this is the right time to invest in a business opportunity and anyone with cash and liquidity can go in for the kill.

In recent years, the demand for domestic air flights has increased at a steady rate. The main reason for this increase in demand is that the air fare has decreased significantly, making air travel an attractive option to the people. There are 2 other reasons for this increase. One reason is that air travel options of today are much more user-friendly than in the past, thereby making air traveling an attractive option. The other reason is that today’s airlines have a broader target audience.

In the event of an emergency, a person may need to acquire air tickets immediately in order to travel by air. There are several means by which a last minute air ticket can be obtained. One of the most basic, but efficient method is to personally travel to the airport itself and then register the person’s name in the flight standby or waiting list. This might provide the person with the chance of obtaining a cheep, but quality air ticket, even in the eleventh hour. Another method is to visit the airline website and search for possible air tickets which are available even in the last minute. It might be possible to get such an air ticket, at a reasonable price over the internet.

It might be possible for a person to get an air ticket even in the last minute because seats in the flight may not have been filled up. Therefore tickets are only assigned to people in the waiting list, a few hours before takeoff. This ensures that the flight carries the maximum number of passengers possible. This is a very large advantage to the airlines because they don’t have to leave with empty seats. It is also advantageous to the passenger, as the passenger will be able to reach his/her loved ones immediately, incase of an emergency.

As aforementioned, air tickets can be obtained over the internet. Most of these airline websites will provide the passenger with all possible routes that can be taken to reach a destination. In addition, the passenger will also be informed about any last minute air ticket offers which are available. These air tickets maybe offered at special discounts to the passenger. As such offers will only last a couple of hours, the passenger should immediately apply to any such offers available.

If the person travels to the airport to get a ticket in the last minute, he/she should contact an airline official. These officials will try their best to ensure that the passenger arrives at the required destination in time to be with his/her loved ones. All baggage of the passenger will also be attended to immediately (any loss in baggage will be compensated satisfactorily).

All passengers who wish to purchase an air ticket in the last minute should arrive at the airport a few hours early. This is because the passenger will have to go through formalities at the airport, such as any security checks and checking of all luggage of the passenger. Passengers who wish to take laptops will have to present their laptops for checking at the security checking counter.

The language for all aviators and air traffic control officers (ATCOs) who wish to operate internationally is English. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has produced a creditable and expansive manual, which details future English-language communication requirements for aircraft operators. Those requirements come into effect on 5 March 2008.

The ICAO document, which details the English-language proficiency requirements is, to all intents and purposes, a Statement of Requirement. Training providers Worldwide, and the aviation industry as a whole, therefore need to adapt to meet the demand and the challenge faced by all concerned. The requirement is to raise standards in aviation communications globally, commonly referred to as Aviation English. However, there needs to be greater understanding that the term ‘Aviation English’ covers a considerably wider field of knowledge and expertise than many currently appreciate. The following is designed to provide some indication as to the degrees of enormity and complexity that the industry faces in contributing to, and in meeting the task of imposing safe English-language communication skills among aircraft operators World-wide.

Pilots and ATCOs are at the front line of aircraft operations. The extent of the training that these personnel have to endure to achieve full operational status is enormous. Training can extend to periods of up to 2 years in the case of pilots and tends to comprise one long, uninterrupted process. In the case of ATCOs, however, because of the different specialisations involved in that function and their varying degrees of complexity, training tends to be conducted in phases, as controllers’ progress through their individual career paths and gain experience in the different specialisations open to them. In both cases, training is ongoing, not only because of the degree of knowledge required, due to ever-changing working locations, but also because of the continual updating of the equipment in use, ongoing revisions to the rules and regulations, and also frequent changes in the air traffic operating environment.

Following a rigorous selection process, whereby only very small percentages of individuals actually have the aptitude to be successful pilots or ATCOs, there begins a learning process that is extensive in respect of the degree of fundamental knowledge required by aircraft operators in a wide range of fields. In addition to the many practical skills required to perform their respective roles, pilots and ATCOs require extensive knowledge of the following: meteorology; physics; geography; navigation; maps and charts; theory of flight; mechanics; aircraft construction; airframes and engines; electrics, electronics and avionics; instrumentation; hydraulics; rules of the air; aviation rules and regulations, both in the air and on the ground; and air traffic control regulations. Aircraft operators are also required to have a precise and unambiguous knowledge and understanding of the following: a vast range of aviation-related definitions, some straight-forward, others quite complex; a wide range of very precise and unambiguous phraseology, to cover all routine and non-routine situations; a plethora of aviation-specific abbreviations; and a vast array of aviation-related vocabulary, which most native speakers of English seldom use in everyday life. In addition, all aircraft operators require an appreciation of medicine, biology, and human performance limitations. Furthermore, all concerned with aircraft operations are required to undergo daily briefings, both oral and written, and have to read and fully understand numerous daily and periodical publications: for example, Flight Information Publications, which provide essential information and warnings related to flight safety, and Notices to Airmen, which provide information concerning daily changes within the aviation environment. Comprehending these documents would prove a significant challenge to any aircraft operator who is not a native speaker of English. In addition to speaking and listening skills in English, therefore, reading comprehension is a skill that should also be given emphasis in any Aviation English training syllabus.

To become a successful pilot or ATCO, one requires a very high degree of a particular type of aptitude, coupled with a supreme mental agility of many different kinds. However, it is important to note that the aptitude required to be a successful pilot, is very different to that required to be an effective and competent ATCO. Nevertheless, both professions require individuals to have the ability to be extremely calm under pressure, to multi-task both mentally and physically, and to assimilate information quickly and effectively and to act upon it correctly and decisively. At the end of their rigorous and lengthy process of training, and when they have achieved full operational status, these individuals possess a wealth of knowledge and have well-honed and acute mental and physical skills. However, even fully-trained and experienced, pilots and ATCOs are continually operating at the extremes of effective human capability, whereby everyday, decisions they make as individuals can, in many cases, mean the difference between life and death for others. Therefore, at any stage within this ongoing process of professional development, to expect an aircraft operator to repeat the entire very demanding and complex training process in a second language, is a daunting prospect. Indeed, it is hard to assimilate the degree of difficulty involved, because, yet another factor comes into play: that of an individual’s degree of aptitude as a linguist.

When assessing the operational and international requirement within the aviation community for precise and accurate communications in English, both in the air and on the ground, there are several factors to be considered: the vast array of different communications and means of communication in use; the skills necessary to communicate effectively, by which ever means; and the difficulties faced by non-native speakers of English, who require to perfect those communication skills, with all their inherent complexities, in a second language. Those concerned face an extremely difficult and daunting task.

Gone are the days when you have to do a lot of planning before traveling to another country for business purposes. Now, things have changed a lot and everything can be done with ease. It has become possible only due to the introduction of the private jet charter. Just by opting for a private jet charter, you can travel with total peace of mind.

However, it is crucial to mention that not all companies offering jet charters are worth working with. Some of these companies will never be able to help you have a “right flying experience”. That’s the reason why you should take some time and make an informed decision.

In case you are not completely aware of how to differentiate between a good and a bad private aircraft charter company, you should make a decision after paying attention to following things.

#1. First of all, you should learn about different safety standards available for private jets. Then, you should see how a company conforms to these standards. It is also a good idea to see if the company you are opting for has certified auditors or not. You should use their services only if they are certified auditors. What’s more, don’t forget to pay attention the track record of all the pilots and co-pilots.

#2. Ask a company about the availability of a flight attendant. Professional companies offer the services of a flight attendant to all travelers. So, you should see if this service is available and is it free of charge or not.

#3. Don’t proceed with your decision without consulting with the professional to know if you can travel in the company of your pets or not. Make sure the private jet charter company allows you to keep your pet in your own cabin.

#4. It is not easy to find the very best company due to the availability of many options. But, professional companies will always offer some special services and concierge services and on ground transportation are some of those special services that should be checked by you.

#5. Many companies can now help you travel in private jets, but make sure you opt for the one that offers Fleet Discount Program. With the availability of these types of programs, it becomes easier to enjoy all the best services at much lower rates.

#6. Lastly, you should never opt for a company without checking for the availability of Jet Card Membership. This card is just what doctor ordered for frequent travelers. It allows a company to deduct money from your account as and when you travel with them. But, you should also check a card for the availability of other benefits such as no management fees, no overnight fees, no reposition fees, no fuel surcharges, and no expiration date.

The bottom line is that though it is not easy to spot the best private aircraft charter company, it is far from being impossible. Yes, you have to do some researching, but this will always help you find a company that gives you a superb flying experience.

While helicopter simulator might be a great tool for people who have dreamt to become a pilot, it allows you to literally fly your own fantasy planes and helicopters. The advanced simulators also have a good helicopter simulator in them. Yes, you got that correctly: flight simulators are not restricted to airplanes anymore; you can choose to fly also helicopters with a large variety of them.

One flight simulator that includes a great helicopter simulator is Pro Flight Simulator. Aside from a variety of more than a 120 unique planes, there is a selection of 18 distinct helicopters. True, the basic package deal which you buy provides you an entry of 20 aircrafts; however, by buying a lifetime membership, you will receive a total usage of all the 100 aircrafts, helicopters, and even gliders.
