An Auckland restaurant manager has dodged a term in a Malaysian prison after being charged with attempting to open an aircraft door mid-flight. Harry Frazer Cranwell, 32, was aboard Malaysian Airlines flight MH0130 last Sunday travelling from New Zealand to Kuala Lumpur when he attempted to open an emergency exit door, Malaysian news agency Bernama reported. He had drunk five cans of beer and another glass of alcohol on the flight, the agency said. An air stewardess saw him holding the handle of the emergency door of the aircraft and attempting to open it, the court was told. He was charged with endangering an aircraft and the lives of those on board and appeared in the Kuala Lumpur Magistrate's Court in an orange prison uniform on Tuesday. Cranwell reportedly sobbed in the dock with tears rolling down his cheek as the magistrate warned the Aucklander not to ever repeat his actions, Bernama reported. He received a fine of 6000 Malaysian Ringgit ($2226) in default of 12 months in jail. https://www.stuff.co.nz/travel/travel-troubles/106315202/auckland-man-avoids-jail-after-attempting-to-open-aircraft-door-midflight Back to Top Cargo flight investigated after cabin loses pressure, pilot incapacitated (Australia) The national transport safety body is investigating an incident on a Qantas-owned cargo plane that left a pilot incapacitated after the cabin depressurised. The Boeing 737 had departed from Brisbane late on Wednesday night and was on its way to Melbourne when the crew were alerted to a "wing body overheat warning", which resulted in the cabin pressure reducing. The plane was operated by Express Freighters Australia, which is owned by Qantas. "The crew donned oxygen and descended to 20,000 ft," the ATSB said in a statement. One of the pilots was then "incapacitated", forcing the captain to descend to 8,000 feet and divert the aircraft to Canberra. Emergency services were called to the airport at 11.46pm on Wednesday, with firefighters and paramedics on standby at the airport when the plane landed safely just after midnight. The incident occurred over Narrandera, in the Riverina region of southern New South Wales. As it was a freight service, no passengers were on board. The bureau will collect evidence to find out exactly what caused the incident. "As part of the investigation, the ATSB will collect and examine information on the aircraft's flight data recorders and interview maintenance and flight crew," it said in a statement. The plane was a VH-XMO Boeing 737-376 operated by Express Freighters Australia. Express Freighters Australia is a cargo airline based in Sydney, established in 2006. It is wholly owned by Qantas Freight, a subsidiary of Qantas. The airline said an air conditioning system fault was partly to blame for the mishap. "The Boeing 737 freighter diverted into Canberra on Wednesday night following a fault with the on-board air conditioning system that affected the ability to maintain pressure in the cabin," a Qantas spokeswoman said. "The aircraft landed normally in Canberra and the pilots went to hospital as a precaution. They were discharged shortly after." They will conduct their own investigation and the plane is being inspected by engineers. https://www.smh.com.au/national/cargo-flight-investigated-after-cabin-loses-pressure-pilot-incapacitated-20180816-p4zxyi.html Back to Top Close call: Springfield airport van crossed runway in front of airplane taking off A van crosses a runway at the Springfield airport moments before a plane takes off. A video taken from the control tower shows a van crossing a runway at the Springfield-Branson National Airport just seconds ahead of an airliner that was taking off. No one was injured in the June 27 incident. The jetliner, an Embraer 145 operated by Envoy Air, was carrying 50 passengers and three crew. A report filed by Jim Brown, driver of the van, indicates he and two other people were taking the van to an airport employee barbecue. The News-Leader obtained the report through a Sunshine Law request. "I decided that due to the time limitations we would cross the runway in order to make it in time," Brown wrote in his report. Background: Data: Few near-miss incidents at Springfield airport "Just as I had cleared runway 20 the Ground Controller cleared me to cross runway 14, I repeated back cleared to cross runway 14 and proceeded at a high rate of speed (to minimize time on the taxiway and runway) down taxiway Uniform. "It is generally my practice to look at both ends of any runway I cross, but I honestly cannot say for sure that I looked both ways or how far down the runway I might have looked," Brown wrote. Brown described what happened next: "About halfway across runway 14 the right front seat passenger said 'Oh Shit' I looked out the right passenger window to see the landing lights of an E145 (passenger jet) coming down the runway. The nose gear had already rotated, I do not know if the mains had left the ground or not. I accelerated across the runway and heard the aircraft overhead just as we were leaving the runway surface." Brown, in his report, says he asked if any of his passengers heard that his van was cleared to cross runway 14 "and both stated that he did clear us to cross runway 14." Brown said he reported the incident to the airport operations supervisor. A preliminary National Transportation Safety Bureau report notes visibility at the time was 10 miles. Airport responds Late Wednesday morning, airport spokesman Kent Boyd issued a statement about the event. "The airport takes safety very seriously. As such, we are reviewing internal operating procedures that may have contributed to this incident. The driver of the van is an airport employee. We cannot comment further because the incident is under investigation and in addition, we do not comment about personnel matters." Boyd notes the NTSB is investigating the runway incursion, and the airport "is fully cooperating and we look forward to NTSB's final report and recommendations." https://www.news-leader.com/story/news/local/ozarks/now/2018/08/15/springfield-airport-van-crossed-sgf-runway-jet-airplane-took-off/996802002/ Back to Top Back to Top Indonesia AirAsia and Ravn Alaska pass IATA safety audit Indonesia AirAsia and Ravn Alaska both passed the IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA). Indonesia AirAsia is an Indonesian associate carrier of Malaysian low-fare airline AirAsia. Its main base is Soekarno-Hatta International Airport in Jakarta. It started operating flights in 2005 and uses eighteen Airbus A320-200 aircraft. The airline suffered one accident. In December 2014 all 162 on board flight QZ8501 were killed when the aircraft crashed into the Karimata Strait following a loss of control. Between July 2007 and July 2010 Indonesia AirAsia was on the EU list of banned air carriers. Ravn Alaska (corporate name Corvus Airlines) is a regional airline that specializes in serving the small communities in the US state of Alaska. It was founded in 1948 as Economy Helicopters and was later renamed Era Helicopters. In 1988, Era Helicopters formally changed its name to Era Aviation. The airline later split up the helicopter and fixed-wing aircraft divisions. The fixed-wing airline became Era Alaska, which changed its name to Ravn Alaska in 2014. It currently operates a fleet of ten de Havilland Canada DHC-8-100's. The IOSA programme is an evaluation system designed to assess the operational management and control systems of an airline. IOSA uses internationally recognised quality audit principles and is designed to conduct audits in a standardised and consistent manner. It was created in 2003 by IATA. All IATA members are IOSA registered and must remain registered to maintain IATA membership. https://news.aviation-safety.net/2018/08/15/indonesia-airasia-and-ravn-alaska-pass-iata-safety-audit/ Back to Top US prepares to ban laptops on flights from Europe BRUSSELS (AP) - The U.S. is expected to broaden its ban on in-flight laptops and tablets to include planes from the European Union, a move that would create logistical chaos on the world's busiest corridor of air travel. Alarmed at the proposal, which airline officials say is merely a matter of timing, European governments held urgent talks on Friday with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The ban would affect trans-Atlantic routes that carry as many as 65 million people a year on over 400 daily flights, many of them business travelers who rely on their electronics to work during the flight. The ban would dwarf in size the current one, which was put in place in March and affects about 50 flights per day from 10 cities, mostly in the Middle East. Chief among the concerns are whether any new threat prompted the proposal and the relative safety of keeping in the cargo area a large number of electronics with lithium batteries, which have been known to catch fire. American officials were invited to Brussels next week to discuss the proposed ban, the EU said. European Commission spokeswoman Anna-Kaisa Itkonen said the EU had no new information about a specific security concern. U.S. officials have said the decision in March to bar laptops and tablets from the cabins of some international flights wasn't based on any specific threat but on longstanding concerns about extremists targeting jetliners. Experts say a bomb in the cabin would be easier to make and require less explosive force than one in the cargo hold. Baggage in cargo usually goes through a more sophisticated screening process than carry-on bags. Jeffrey Price, an aviation-security expert at Metropolitan State University of Denver, said the original ban focused on certain countries because their equipment to screen carry-on bags is not as effective as machines in the U.S. A French official who was briefed about Friday's meeting said the Americans announced they wanted to extend the ban, and the Europeans planned to formulate a response in coming days. The official said the primary questions revolved around when and how - and not whether - the ban would be imposed. The official spoke only on condition of anonymity to discuss the plan. Jenny Burke, a Homeland Security spokeswoman, said no final decision has been made on expanding the restriction. But Homeland Security officials met Thursday with high-ranking executives of the three leading U.S. airlines - American, Delta and United - and the industry's leading U.S. trade group, Airlines for America, to discuss expanding the laptop policy to flights arriving from Europe. Two airline officials who were briefed on the discussions said Homeland Security gave no timetable for an announcement, but they were resigned to its inevitability. They spoke only on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the meeting publicly. The U.S. airlines still hope to have a say in how the policy is put into effect at airports to minimize inconvenience to passengers. The initial ban on passengers bringing large electronics devices into the cabin hit hardest at Middle Eastern airlines. Emirates, the Middle East's largest airline, this week cited the ban on electronics as one of the reasons for an 80 percent drop in profits last year. It said the ban had a direct impact on demand for air travel into the U.S. and it faced rising costs from introducing complimentary laptop loans to some passengers. Alain Bauer, president of the CNAPS, a French regulator of private-sector security agents, including those checking baggage and passengers in France's airports, predicted "chaotic" scenes initially if the ban was instituted. "Imagine the number of people who carry their laptops and tablets onto planes - not just adults, but also children," he told the AP. He said it would slow passage through security checks as people try to negotiate a way of keeping their laptops. "It's not like losing your water bottle or your scissors. It will take more time to negotiate," he said. "You need a lot of time to inform them and a lot of time for it to enter people's heads until it becomes a habit," he said. "After a week of quite big difficulties, 95 percent of people will understand the practicalities." The head of the International Air Transport Association said recently that the electronics ban is not an acceptable or effective long-term solution to security threats, and said the commercial impact is severe. An industry-backed group, the Airline Passenger Experience Association, said the U.S. government should consider alternatives. That could include routinely testing laptops for chemical residues associated with bombs, requiring owners to turn on their devices, and letting frequent travelers keep their electronics with them. The group's CEO, Joe Leader, noted that airlines have reduced service by more than 1 million long-haul seats in the 10 Middle Eastern and North African cities affected by the March policy. If it spreads to Europe, "it's simply a matter of time" before laptops are banned in the cabins of domestic U.S. flights, he said. At the Delta area of the Cincinnati airport, a sign warned passengers that beginning Friday on flights returning to the U.S. any electronic devices other than a cellphone would have to be placed in checked baggage. The airline flies between Cincinnati and Paris. A Delta spokesman said the sign was posted in error by an employee at the airport. Asked if Delta had anticipated that the in-cabin ban on larger electronics would go into effect this week, the spokesman declined to comment. https://apnews.com/0add9c7f8af044fe9eaaec97afad3f1b Back to Top GAO raps Pentagon, services for not properly tracking aviation mishap data A firetruck sprays foam over the remains of an Air National Guard C-130 cargo plane from Puerto Rico that crashed in Port Wentworth, Ga., in May, killing nine airmen from the Puerto Rico Air National Guard. The Government Accountability Office is raising concerns about how the services track data on aviation mishaps. (Steve Bisson/Savannah Morning News via AP) As the military faces an alarming uptick in plane crashes and other aviation-related mishaps, some fatal, the Government Accountability Office took the Army, Navy and Air Force to task for not tracking aviation mishap data in the same way. For example, GAO said in a report Wednesday to Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, the Army uses its own processes to define types of aviation mishaps. And when mishap data isn't standardized across services, they don't speak a "common language," GAO said. This makes it harder to accurately measure trends of how mishaps are changing, analyze what risks exist that could lead to mishaps, and effectively share lessons learned with one another. The Naval Safety Center only collects standardized data on 11 of the 35 data elements on aviation mishaps, GAO said, and the Army Combat Readiness Center has standardized data on 14 mishap data elements. The Air Force Safety Center did better with 17 standardized aviation mishap data elements, GAO said, but even that was not even half of what the Air Force is supposed to be tracking. The service safety centers and the Office of the Secretary of Defense also don't agree on what OSD should do to analyze mishaps to find their causes, GAO said. As a result, the safety centers don't report all the data elements about mishaps - including what may have caused the incidents - to the Pentagon. This particularly has become a problem because no safety centers are submitting information on human factors - such as performance-based errors, physical problems and mental awareness - which the Pentagon says is most often the cause of mishaps. While studies have recently shown that problems with training could be contributing to the rise in aviation mishaps, GAO said the Pentagon isn't consistently collecting training data. The Pentagon and services need to make sure the safety centers collect standardized aviation mishap data, according to the government watchdog. The military also needs to make clear what the OSD's responsibility is for analyzing mishaps, the report said, and that office should have access to services' information on the human factors behind those mishaps. The Pentagon and military services should also find which training-related data is relevant to tracking aviation mishaps and start collecting it, GAO said. The Defense Department agreed with GAO's recommendations and is taking steps to put them into place. https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/your-air-force/2018/08/15/gao-raps-pentagon-for-not-properly-tracking-aviation-mishap-data/ Back to Top Qatar Airways welcomes its 100th Boeing aircraft and 70th 777 Qatar airways announced that it had welcomed its 100th Boeing aircraft at its hub in Doha.
