The Journal of the Royal Aeronautical Society, 1947
When I was asked to give this lecture on Civil Flight Testing, I considered in what way any of my experience might be of general help to the Industry.The tests which A. and A.E.E. make on civil aircraft are at the moment of three kinds: —(a)Tests to prove compliance with Air Registration Board requirements for a Certificate of Airworthiness.(b ...

Measurements of radiation exposure in civil aircraft
Acta Astronautica, 1998The radiation exposures on 12 flights of German airlines were measured with an active dosemeter based on two silicon semiconductors. The dependence on the date, altitude and route of the flights was studied. Measured dose rates and preliminary dose equivalent rates of the individual flights are given and compared with model calculations.

Radiation Exposure in Civil Aircraft
Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 1999An active dosemeter based on two silicon planar detectors was flown on civil aircraft flights to study the altitude and latitude dependence and any potential short-term variations of the radiation exposure. The count rate versus altitude at flight levels FL310-FL410 near Frankfurt (Germany) has been found to be proportional to an exponential law [exp ...

The Interception of Civil Aircraft
Air and Space Law, 2021This article investigates the regulatory framework that governs the interception of civil aircraft. It analyses the various circumstances that may justify such interventions as well as the main legal principles that apply to their conduct. Particular attention is given to the States’ obligations under the Chicago Convention, and more specifically the ...

Civil Aircraft Accident Investigation
Medico-Legal Journal, 2013This talk reviews some historic aircraft accidents and some more recent. It reflects on the division of accident causes, considering mechanical failures and aircrew failures, and on aircrew training. Investigation results may lead to improved aircraft design, and to appropriate crew training.
