This report provides a summary and analysis of the data collected in the 1978 General Aviation Pilot and Aircraft Activity Survey. The survey Has conducted at a random sample of airports across the nation and Puerto Rico, throughout the months of July and August 1978, by the Federal Aviation Administration with the assistance of the Civil Air Patro

A comprehensive summary of the final design of the Calspan/Chrysler RSV is presented. Reference is made to earlier studies in which the design goals were established. Details of the design tradeoff analyses and the final design decisions which culminated in the cars built for the fourth, or final, phase of the six-year program are given. These vehi

An experimental section using Type 1P cement concrete was poured on an active construction project in south Louisiana, near Franklin. A comparison in quality was made between this section and the normal Type 1(B) cement concrete poured on the remainder of the project.In-place tests such as slump, air temperature, concrete temperature, air content a

The purpose of this informal working note is to document the derivation of an equation that determines the acceleration of a moving object when given its time of arrival at three known points. This equation can be used to approximate the acceleration of a rolling rail car in a hump yard. This acceleration in turn gives an indication of rolling resi

This report represents a continuation of analyses concerned with the patterns and methods of distributing grain from North Dakota. The collection and compilation of this type of data began in 1956-57. The objective of this report, like prior reports, is to provide the necessary data base for identifying trends in the distribution of grains and oils

The contractor reviewed the price evaluation of FMVSS 214 performed under Contract No. DOT-HS-7-01767 and selected fourteen commensurate 1979 models and door beams and body pillars (if necessary). The components required were purchased and a weight and consumer price was obtained by the application and automotive component processing. Variable cost

Limestone rock asphalt products have been utilized as surface course materials on Texas streets and highways since the 1890's. This valuable resource is presently produced for road building purposes by Uvalde Rock Asphalt Company and White1s Mines in Uvalde County, Texas. Cold mixes utilizing flux oils and cover stone for surface treatments and sea

The Louisiana Experimental Base Project is a research study evaluating the design/performance characteristics of three types of base courses as incorporated into comparable flexible pavement systems on a full-scale test road. Fourteen different test sections were constructed in order to evaluate the study variables. The variables of the experimenta

This research project was initiated to evaluate the performance of an ultrasonic testing device device in predicting compressive strengths from tests performed on samples of fresh concrete.The initial phase of this study involved laboratory peroration of concrete cylinders water cement ratios. These were tested using ultrasonic equipment and the re

One cue for visual judgment of glidepath angle has been referred to as form ratio. Form ratio is defined as the ratio of vertical height of the runway to width of the far end in the runway retinal image. The ability of pilots to judge form ratios was compared with the ability to judge approach angles in the nighttime 'black hole' situation in two e

The present study examined the effect of noise (radar control room sounds, 80 dBA) on the ability to sustain attention to a complex monitoring task. The visual display was designed to resemble that of a highly automated air traffic control radar system containing computer-generated alphanumeric symbols.Fifty-six men and women were divided into four

This report describes the Civil Aeromedical Institute cabin safety data bank and gives summaries of injuries reflected in the over 1,400 accidents/incidents in the data bank. As an example of the uses to which these data are applicable, the number of aircraft involved in occurrences are compared with the number in operation and selected variables.
