2. A SMALL MATTER OF KNOWLEDGE

Here's What Happens When a Plane Is Struck By Lightning

In the U.S., lightning strikes about 25 million times a year and kills an average of 49 people, according to the National Weather Service. Worldwide, lightning strikes on commercial planes are daily occurrences.

That somewhat frightening figure has some people asking: Is it safe to fly in lightning? The answer, one expert says, is a resounding "yes."

"Standard commercial airplanes are designed to take lightning strikes," says Prof. John Hansman, professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics and director of the International Center for Air Transportation at MIT.

For safety reasons, planes hit by lightning mid-flight undergo inspection after landing but in most cases, the aircraft is either unharmed or sustains only minor damage.

The last commercial plane crash in the U.S. confirmed to be directly caused by lightning was in 1967, when the plane's fuel tank exploded as a result, according to Scientific American. Since then, more techniques have been determined to reduce the threat of lightening.

Planes are intricately designed machines, and manufacturers pay particular attention to electrical wiring. Electrical parts around components like electronic flight equipment and fuel tanks are carefully grounded to prevent the formation of electric arcs, which could threaten a plane's safety. A stray arc could cause an explosion, for example, if it ignites vapours in the fuel tanks.

Lightning typically strikes a relatively sharp edge of a plane, like a wingtip or nose, and the current exits via the tail, according to Hansman. This happens because an aircraft's fuselage, or body, acts as a Faraday cage (a container that blocks electromagnetic fields). Energy and electric charge from the lightning bolt run around the outside of the vessel, protecting the interior from any voltage.

Newer airliners like the Boeing 787 and the Airbus A350 are made with a higher proportion of composite materials like carbon fibres, resulting in a reduced electrical conductivity of the fuselage and wings, says Hansman. Manufacturers have also developed a workaround by adding more metal wiring into the composite material to ensure good conductivity on the aircraft's exterior.

In short, lightning strikes are "not a severe problem from a safety standpoint," says Hansman. When air operators route around stormy areas, it is to prevent turbulence or possible external damage caused by things like hail rather than to avoid lightning.

6. ASECNA, AIREON PARTNER TO ENHANCE SAFETY IN AFRICAN AIRSPACE

By Kendall Russell | January 10, 2018 | Middle East & Africa, Regional, Satellite News Feed, ST Briefs, Telecom

Aireon has announced that it has signed a data services agreement with the Agency for Aerial Navigation Safety in Africa and Madagascar (ASECNA). Together, the pair will bring real-time air traffic surveillance to high-trafficked, terrestrial African corridors.

ASECNA is one of Africa's largest Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs), covering 16.1 million square kilometres of airspace, through six Flight Information Regions (FIRs) - Antananarivo, Brazzaville, Dakar Oceanic, Dakar Terrestrial, Niamey and N'Djamena.

ASECNA is responsible for air traffic services in a significant part of the African continent, handling frequently travelled routes between Europe, East and Southern Africa and South America. With Aireon data, as early as 2019 ASECNA will be able to introduce a continuous layer of surveillance, augmenting existing infrastructure and completing coverage for their entire airspace. According to the organization, this will significantly improve service availability to airlines and enhance safety and efficiency in African airspace.

"The vastness of the landmass that ASECNA is responsible for poses an immense surveillance challenge, especially because it is not always possible to install or maintain ground infrastructure," said Mohamed Moussa, ASECNA Director General.

ASECNA joins other African ANSPs in the deployment of space-based ADS-B. South Africa's Air Traffic and Navigation Services (ATNS) and Seychelles Civil Aviation Authority (SCAA) have also signed agreements over the last 18 months.

7. 2017 FLIGHT SAFETY RECORD IMPRESSIVE; TOOK YEARS TO GET IT

Everyone gripes about air travel. The complaints are universal: bare-it-all security checks; shoving matches over cabin bin space; economy seats increasingly reminiscent of a miniature medieval torture cell maliciously called the "little ease." Oh, for those glamorous jet-set days of yesteryear, when fliers were treated like royalty starting at the airport curbside. Can modern air travel really be called an improvement? Yes, in the starkest and most critical terms: You'll get there in one piece. Year's-end reports show 2017 was the safest year for commercial travel in aviation history. Studies by two separate safety organizations - a team of Dutch aviation consultants and the U.S.-based Aviation Safety Network - reported last week that, out of a record 37 million flights, there were no passenger jet crashes in the world last year. The handful of fatal commercial accidents that did occur were limited to either cargo planes or regional carriers operating small aircraft. This is no small achievement. Harrowing, high-fatality plane crashes, if not routine, were for decades events that took place every few years. If you have lived in this region (North America) long enough, you may recall the crash of a Delta jumbo jet at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport in 1985 during a summer thunderstorm. The disaster claimed 137 lives. Experts say technology and training have steadily reduced the incidence of these tragedies over the years. The D/FW crash, in fact, led directly to new standards in windshear-detection ability in both onboard and ground-based systems. At the same time, new safety measures in aircraft construction mean that even in the event of a crash, passengers are more likely to survive. That's due, among other factors, to better fire suppression and evacuation procedures. "Cabin safety has improved by leaps and bounds since the 1970s and '80s," said Adrian Young, a senior consultant who participated in one of the studies released recently, in an interview with The Washington Post. Experts caution that safety challenges remain in commercial aviation, and that there is no room for complacency in the operation complex air transit systems. Ongoing challenges include risks posed by human fatigue along with the danger of fire posed by batteries used in consumer electronics.

But when poker-faced aviation officials assure you that the gravest modern danger to commercial air travel is the drive to the airport, they have the statistics to back it up. Passenger flights operated by major carriers are far and away the safest means of popular transportation. "It's not a one-year phenomenon," said John Cox a retired pilot and airline safety consultant. "It was the work of thousands of people over decades."

8. LATEST ON MH370

A U.S.-based marine survey firm expects a contract award from the Malaysian government shortly to resume searching for the Boeing 777-200 that disappeared almost four years ago while operating as Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370.

In an emailed statement, Houston-based Ocean Infinity confirmed its plans to resume the search for the missing aircraft from the Seabed Constructor, an offshore construction vessel.

"With a relatively narrow weather window, we are moving the vessel toward the vicinity of the possible search zone," the company said. "This is designed to save time should the contract award be forthcoming, as hoped. We will confirm as and when the contract is awarded and the search can resume."

MH370, which carried 239 passengers and crew, disappeared from radar March 8, 2014, while flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. Australia accepted responsibility for leading the search at the request of the Malaysian government, concentrating the effort in the southern Indian Ocean. The search continued until Jan. 17, 2017, when the governments of Malaysia, Australia and China jointly agreed to suspend operations.

Ocean Infinity maintains a fleet of Kongsberg Maritime Hugin Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) capable of operating to depths of 6,000 m (19,700 ft.). The AUVs, fitted with side-scan sonar, multi-beam echo-sounder and various other sensors, are accompanied by unmanned surface vehicles to ensure precise positioning and constant communication, the company says.

The Seabed Constructor, chartered from Norwegian firm Swire Seabed, left Durban, South Africa, on Jan. 2, en route to Perth, Australia, where it was expected to arrive Feb. 7, according Marine Traffic, an online database.

9. BIG CHANGES FOR FSF'S AVIATION RISK AUDIT PROGRAMME

The Flight Safety Foundation said there are big changes ahead for its Basic Aviation Risk Standard (BARS) aircraft operator and audit programme. Starting this year, the eighth of the programme, BARS will offer two audit streams leading to registration; comprehensive and core audits.

"The comprehensive audit stream, which covers Gold and Silver-designated aircraft operators, will provide an enhanced level of recognition and evaluation for the operator" said programme managing director David Anderson. "The core audit stream will allow Green operators to remain in the programme at a reduced level of commitment".

Operators will be able to move between the two streams. According to David Anderson, "offering the two audit streams will extend the evaluation of implementation and deliver greater flexibility on audit fees and requirements"

Other changes to the programme include introducing negotiable fees for audits, revising audit checklists, and instituting a limit on the number of extensions to audit and closeout deadlines. For many customers, the cost of their audits is "likely to fall because we are allowing audit companies and their auditors to charge flexible fees" he said. "In addition, the portion of audit fees that usually comes back to FSF (from its auditing contractors) has been reduced.

David Anderson is "confident that our three major stakeholder groups - BARS member organisations, audit companies and aircraft operators - will see significant benefits from the changes".

10. NEWS FROM THE JOHANNESBURG AIRPORTS

Users of the Johannesburg aerodromes must be aware of the fact that they all take Aviation Safety and AVSEC seriously.

IATA URGES STAKEHOLDERS TO REINFORCE AVIATION SAFETY COMMITMENT

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has requested aviation safety stakeholders to strengthen their commitment to a safety framework based on global standards, cooperation and dialogue, and effective use of data.

IATA director general and CEO Alexandre de Juniac claimed that air accident investigation is a major area where greater cooperation on global standards is required.

Juniac said: "Safety is the top priority for all involved in aviation-and aviation is the safest form of long-distance travel.

"Last year there were over 40 million safe flights. That's an achievement that we can all be proud of. And it was made possible by a framework that incorporates respect for global standards, cooperation and the value of data."

"TO LEARN FROM AN ACCIDENT, WE NEED REPORTS THAT ARE COMPLETE, ACCESSIBLE AND TIMELY."

A recent study has revealed that of the approximately 1,000 accidents that occurred over the last decade, accident reports for only 300 of them were available and of those many had scope for improvement.

Juniac added: "To learn from an accident, we need reports that are complete, accessible and timely. "We also need states to fully respect the standards and processes enshrined in global agreements for participation in the investigation by all specified parties."

Aviation safety can also be improved with proper communication between regulators and industry in order to ensure that industry experience and know-how is suitably incorporated into new regulations and standards.

The governments need to share adequate data, consult with industry, and support the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) as it frames a global aviation security plan.

According to Juniac, more information is also required to enhance safety regarding the use of drones around airports and their potential hazard to aviation.
