Several Elements of Aviation

This is an excerpt from the paper...

The Federal Aviation Administration has adopted a regulation mandating retirement for commercial pilots at age 60 ("FAA Reafirms Rule Limiting Service of Airline Pilots Over 60 Years Old," 1989). While there are strong arguments against the blanket implementation of this rule, such implementation has generally been supported on the grounds of overriding public safety, because of the large numbers of passengers involved in commercial flights.

With respect to corporate aviation, however, the arguments against a blanket implementation of the rule are more supportable. With respect to corporate aviation, the danger of unanticipated performance deterorations on the part of pilots is minimal. Therefore, consideration is appropriate of facts which indicate that deteriorations associated with ageing develop with varying degrees of intensity, over varying time durations, and at varying chronological ages among individuals.

With respect to pilots, the principal considerations with respect to the age/performance relationship are sensory changes and changes in learning and memory capacities. Sensory deprivation, including hearing loss, may lead to panic, delusions, and other aberrant mental behavior (Kaplan, and Sadock. 1985). These potential outcomes could seriously impair the performanceof pilots. The development of sensory losses, and, in turn, the development of the adverse outcomes indicated, vary widely

Such a restriction of access to general aviation would be a major blow to any hope for a revival of corporate aviation in the 1990s ("Preserving Access Key Issue to Business, General Aviation." 1989). Access to air traffic space and airport facilities in major population centers is recognized as a critical need for any future growth of corporate aviation (Taylor, 1989). Continued unrelieved congestion in the air and on the ground could ground corporate aviation in the 1990s (Bonneau, 1988). Actions of the major airline companies, however, appear to be fostering congestion at the nation's major airports. To attack the problem of operating cost control, the major carriers in the industry adopted a strategy of hubandspoke flying (McKellin, 1988). This strategy is designed to reduce 6 costs, by offering a large variety and large number of connecting opportunities from a central location (McKellin, 1988). At these central locations, the hubs of airline route systems, congestion increases rapidly. Thus, the hubandspoke strategy of the major airline acts as a deterrent to corpora
