Environmental Factor That Affects Aircraft Performance

Environmental Factor That Affects Aircraft Performance          Environmental factors induce rough flight, leads to grave discomfort,  harm to the passengers, it also influences the  reputation and economy of the country. These factors produce an issue for pilots  to require   call . These factors increase the  chance  of other factors  to return into play and increase the chance of an accident to occur that may later result in the incidence of a flight failure. Factors such as volcanic ash, hurricane, and earthquake will destroy airfields, aircraft facilities, and aviation. A change in temperature affects air density, which may also affect the potency of the jet engine. The higher the air temperature, the less thrust could also be created by the engine.  Generally, tenuity needs a longer takeoff distance. Air density another enviro...

What does Ethics Mean to me?

According to Websters Dictionary ethics is a  "set of moral principles :  a theory or system of moral values". Values are things that we hold deeply as a set standard, something love and hope not to change or break. it therefore means that values are standards that we hope to live by in aeronautics. Eg. we know in order to become a professional in a aeronautics career we must complete a qualification course and we must develop certain knowledge  and skills. We therefore respect and value the requirements, which later ensure we abide by the code and do what needs to be done. According to Stevens (2008) in her article, like any other business institution aviation operates under code of ethics, a major one being honesty. Each individual should be honest in their doings; honest about their qualification, their ability to do the job and honest enough to bare the consequence of dishonesty. These behaviours are totally dependent on the individual and they should be held ...
