FAA’s New Medication Tool Could Bring More Clarity to Pilot Fitness Decisions
For pilots, deciding whether it is safe and permissible to fly while taking medication has never been as simple as reading a prescription label. A medication that is perfectly routine for the general population can raise different considerations for someone responsible for operating an aircraft. Pilots must understand not only what a drug is intended to treat, but also whether its use is compatible with safety-sensitive duties and whether a mandatory waiting period applies.

The Airline That Wins the Talent War Can Still Lose the Network
Aviation companies have spent the past several years competing intensely for pilots, engineers, technicians, instructors, examiners and other scarce specialists. From the perspective of an individual airline, that logic is difficult to challenge. If a capability is essential to flying, maintenance or training, management has a responsibility to secure it, retain it and maintain enough depth to protect the operation when somebody leaves or becomes unavailable. The difficulty

A Licensed Engineer Is Not Automatically Authorised to Sign Your Aircraft

While modern pilot recruitment incorporates psychological assessment

Why Aircraft Do Not Always Cruise at Their Maximum Altitude
An aircraft may be capable of climbing higher without that altitude being the best place to cruise. Aircraft weight, temperature, available thrust and weather all affect whether a higher flight level provides sufficient performance margin. As fuel burns and the aircraft becomes lighter, higher and more efficient cruise levels may become practical through step climbs. The operational question is therefore not simply how high the aircraft can fly, but whether enough thrust and
