The wreckage has now been removed and will be stored in a secure location out of the public eye as investigators from Canadas Transport Safety Board and the airline continue to examine what might have caused the plane to end up inverted and without one wing and its vertical stabilizer.

This cone-shaped fabric tube may seem simple, but it delivers vital information about wind conditions that every aviator must learn. The windsock is normally placed next to a runway or helipad so that you can easily see it when lined up for takeoff or coming in for a landing. Consider a windsock as nature’s wind compass.

Airborne Wind Shear Detection During the 1980s and 1990s, NASA led a comprehensive research program to identify the characteristics of dangerous wind shear and validated technologies that can predict its severity while in flight. NASA’s groove process was adapted for use on military base runways, U.S.

Runway visual range (RVR) under 2,400 feet triggers a SPECI, and another is issued if it rises to 2,400 feet or more within 10 minutes. Well, these events can quickly affect visibility or runway conditions so much that they call for a special report. Wind information. Runway visual range (RVR). Station identifier.

While instructors idly watch, airplanes go off the runway, landings become too harsh, structure gets overstressed, and tolerances are exceeded. No flying in winds exceeding 10 knots, no chance of obscuring precipitation, no use of runways shorter than 5,000 feet, no risk of encountering darkness or lowering ceilings.

As an aircraft enters the traffic pattern, it begins the process of getting configured to land on the runway. As the plane descends toward the runway on final approach, it may encounter various scenarios where a safe landing cannot be assured. Remember the secret to a good landing is beginning with a good, stabilized approach!
