	Redefining Aviation Support Concepts
		In order to meet aviation support requirements, the concept for aviation support in WWII made use of supply echelons, a flexible organization, and the ability to be mobile and task organize as required.
		As the face of aviation changed during the 1950's, 60's, and into the 80's, the planners for aviation support had to constantly reevaluate and refine the concept for aviation support.
		Just as the planners of aviation prior to WWII had the foresight to envision the type of support required for that campaign, aviation support planners today must have the foresight to envision the type of support required for future campaigns.

	General Aviation Air Crash, Manufacturer Immunity?
		General aviation manufacturers testified in Congress that the decline in manufacturing was because of the increased cost of insuring and defending products liability actions brought by plaintiffs’ attorneys.
		Aviation professionals are sometimes confused because many states have their own statutes of repose applicable to air crash accidents in their state.
		Anyone with an aviation law problem should be guided by the advice of his or her lawyer, under applicable federal and state laws, after a full and confidential disclosure of all relevant facts.

		A GAR (general aviation reservation) controlled access, and aircraft were not allowed to take off until the working controllers were fairly certain the airplane could be expected to reach its destination without undue delay.
		The late 1970s and early 1980s also marked the onset of the general public’s diminishing enthusiasm for aviation as it built to a volume (measured by both movements and by decibels) that was seen to be adding unacceptably to the ever more intrusive hubbub of modern life.
		The 1980s saw a large number of mergers in general aviation manufacturing: Beech was absorbed by Raytheon, to become Raytheon Aircraft; General Dynamics bought Cessna; Chrysler bought Gulfstream; Lear Siegler bought Piper; McDonnell Douglas snapped up Hughes Helicopters; and in the avionics industry Bendix and King merged, as did Honeywell and Sperry.

	Aviation Security: Case Study - Promotion
		I will speak on the perspective of aviation security, both domestic and overseas, to give you a quick view and to remind you of major events within the last ten years.
		There were many other things that were required by Congress in the Aviation Security Improvement Act of 1990 that we had to do, including ways in which we put agents out in the field, to whom they reported, and an oversight body external to the agency over our Research and Development.
		In general, rule making in the Federal Aviation Administration takes a long time for a number of reasonsone of which is, you have to have a lot of interaction with stakeholders before a rule can clear the Federal Aviation Administration.

	Technological Solutions to Improve Aviation Security--Hearing
		The early terrorist threat was largely one of hijacking, and technological solutions such as walk-through metal detectors and conventional X-ray devices became the mainstay of the aviation community through the 1970s and 1980s.
		Aviation security is a shared responsibility among agencies of the federal government and the airlines and the airports.
		The rules were initiated in response to Public Law 101-45 (June 1989), which required the FAA to mandate the use of explosive detection equipment that meets minimum performance standards equal to thermal neutron analysis (TNA) technology if the Administrator determines that it would improve airline safety.

		In the 1980s, the aviation community operated under a range of accepted standards and practices, but there was very little global accountability.
		Aviation holds the key to unlocking the tremendous economic potential that exists across the entire continent of Africa.

		Wang emphasized that the combined arms combat environment of the 1980s required a force that could move quickly over long distances, could fight in an electronic environment, could have the capability to attack an enemy, and could keep the PLAAF from sustaining complete damage from an enemy air attack.
		During the 1980s and early 1990s, the basic radar unit was the regiment, but some radar brigades have been noted over the past few years.
		The biggest question arising from the PLAAF’s and Naval Aviation’s involvement in foreign affairs is whether these exchanges are helping them improve their capabilities to conduct warfare against US forces, or whether they are providing an opportunity for the current and next generation of leaders to understand the importance of peaceful global interaction.

	Soviet Tactical Aviation in the Postwar Period (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		In the initial phase of a future war, frontal aviation was expected to win the battle for command of the air over the most decisive offensive axes and to set the stage for a breakthrough and exploitation on the ground, which would end with the encirclement and destruction of the opposing forces.
		Frontal aviation was reconfigured for the delivery of nuclear weapons in the execution of strategic-operational tasks and found itself challenged by ballistic and air-to-surface missiles of all types.
		Long-range aviation was rearmed with air-to-surface missiles; fighter aviation was equipped with a first generation of guided air-to-air missiles; and surface-to-air missiles emerged as a central element of PVO Strany, whose first noteworthy success with the new technology came in May 1960, when an SA-2 shot down a US U-2 reconnaissance aircraft near Sverdlovsk.

		When the US-based airplane manufacturer, Boeing Airplane Company (Boeing), announced the development of a new airplane model - Boeing 777 - in the late 1980s, many aviation experts wondered about the rationale behind the decision.
		They questioned the need for a new model since Boeing's highly successful 747 model had been flying successfully for over 30 years (Refer Exhibit I for a brief note on Boeing 747).
		Aviation experts argued that Boeing was unnecessarily spending a huge amount of money to develop a new model, whose size, capacity and convenience was, in their opinion, roughly similar to the existing 747.
