Aira Case Study

An assessment of Aircraft Solutions (AS) as to what Security Vulnerabilities that might be found, two areas discussed are Hardware & Policy weakness and impact.

Thirdly, what applications can be implemented in the near future to catch up with UAS technology quickly surpassing current regulations?

Currently the majority of the UAVs operated by the United States are military assets, and as such are subject to policies, requirements and regulations of the military. These safety requirements will be briefly discussed. As unmanned systems are integrated into national airspace they will be operated in increasing numbers by civil operators, for this reason we will also look at civil safety requirements. UAS will also present some unique situations which have up to this point not been experienced; this will require new areas to be incorporated into the aviation industrial safety arena to ensure our current level of safety is not degraded through their inclusion. This paper will investigate aviation industrial safety as it applies specifically to

Be that as it may recreational clients of Uavs weighing short of what 35 kilograms — considered "model airplane" in government terms — needn 't bother with authorization from the elected division to send their remote-controlled gadgets undetermined.

Although the potential contribution of UAVs to sectors such as environmental protection, law enforcement and various commercial activities is apparent, they still seem not to be ready for civilian use. This is due to several reasons, including e.g. civilian UAVs (CUAVs) requiring different technological solutions such as optimized platforms, different endurance requirements, dedicated payloads and different ground control systems. An additional important problem to be solved is the integration of UAVs in the civilian airspace, which will require the adoption of civilian airworthiness standards and proven safety features. Last but not least trust has to be created, both at the public sectors and the commercial community, that CUAVs have economic advantages ( Vanclay 2003)

Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) have become a quickly growing part of the aviation community over the last five to ten years. More and more of these aircraft are flying in the National Airspace System (NAS) with each passing year, without any set rules governing their operation. With the growing population of UAS in the NAS, for military, civil, and commercial use, the need for regulation is becoming increasingly obvious. How to regulate this type of aircraft is no simple task. Taking into consideration the many factors of these aircraft such as size, purpose, who is using them, and location of use, it is difficult to determine what regulation is required. That is the task that has been set before the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). To determine what type of regulation is needed to integrate and ensure the safe operation of UAS in the NAS since the skies that they share are shared with manned aircraft.

In 2012, the United States of America's Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) was directed to integrate the use of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) with the National Airspace System (NAS). This was after a report indicated that there was a lot of opportunity which had remained unexploited by prohibiting the use of drones. Realistically, the use of UAVs for commercial purposes will create more financial and job opportunities considering the fact that the UAV is flexible and they require low operation and maintenance costs. However, for this to happen, there should be clear rules and regulations which will govern the purchase and the ultimate use of unmanned aerial vehicles.

Airport safety is one of the Federal Aviation Administration's biggest concerns. They are tasked with tracking over 10,400,000 commercial flights every year, not including military and non-commercial flights (Canavan). Collisions and crashes are the two major causes of injuries and death. Air travel accidents date all of the way back to 1908 (Old). Orville Wright, one of the original inventors of the airplane, was flying a demonstration for the military when a propeller suddenly was ripped off of the airplane. The passenger, Lieutenant Selfridge was killed when the plane hit the ground (Old). The Federal Aviation Administration has come a long way since the 1960’s to improve safety (Mission). They have implemented various systems such as the United States program, NextGen Program, and the Air Transportation

The reorganization of how the government will create regulations for aviation has now come to its final home, the future of United States day to day aeronautical operations is now the responsibility of the FAA. The Federal Aviation Act of 1958 was a big step that the government took to getting to how we know Aviation today. When you think of United States Aviation the FAA usually comes to mind, and for good reason, the FAA has been a huge component in shaping new technologies and ways of running the National Airspace System (NAS). All of these contributions to the advancement aeronautics, through the FAA, could not have been possible if it weren’t for the reconstruction of government involvement in aviation. From the Air Commerce Act of 1926, to the Federal Aviation Act of 1958, the government has had a significant influence on how we conduct day to day aeronautical operations, ranging from reducing emissions, to improving navigational systems, and ATC

Authorizes State, local or Tribal governments authority to regulate UAS operations via restrictions on the time, speed, manner and place of civil UAS operations with in 200 ft of ground level or 200 ft of a structure

Aviation Security is a huge concern in the United States. With increasing threats of terrorist plots, especially after the September 11th terrorist attacks, the Department of Homeland security has made huge leaps to keep America’s travelers, airports, and airways safe. With growing concerns of terrorism and other issues, the Department of Homeland Security put in place an organization known as TSA (Transportation Security Administration) and other federal regulations under the Aviation and Transportations Security Act of 2001. It has been 10 years since the establishment of TSA and the new rules of air travel, even though recently they have fallen into a realm of criticism with their new body scan techniques. After the September 11th, 2001 terrorist attacks aviation security has been one of the biggest issues in the world. There are several ways in which airports and cargo shipments are protected and there are different types of technologies that are currently being used to assist in these efforts to keep airports and cargo shipments safe guarded.

For the safety of the air traffic system, Part 139 states that, “No person may operate an airport specified under 139.1 of this part without an Airport Operating Certificate or in violation of that certificate, the applicable provisions, or the approved Airport Certification Manual” (FAA, 2004). The Advisory Circular 150/5200-18C that is applicable to Airport Safety Self-Inspection notes the importance of a self-inspection program to identify unsatisfactory conditions to facilitate prompt corrective actions (FAA, 2015). The following essay uses both Part 139 and Advisory Circular 150/5200-18C to detail some of the responsibilities, inspections record requirements, basic inspection techniques, and different types of inspections used to comply with government regulations.

Set navigational areas over which flying is prohibited, restricted or dangerous on coordination with the concerned authorities in the State.

Public Law 112-95 – FAA modernization and Reform Act of 2012 charged the Department of Transportation and the FAA to finalize and integrate UASs into the NAS with the intent of allowing commercial operations (Public Law 112-95, 2012). Any aircraft that operates within the NAS needs to be certified, registered, and controlled by a licensed pilot (non-model aircraft). With the passing of Public Law 112-95 UASs pilots could now request an exemption to these requirements under Section 333 (Section 333, 2017). This set the frame work for commercial UASs operations prior to the full implementation of 14 CFR Part 107. In late August 2016 the FAA fully implemented Part 107 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs); setting
