Preface
This book intends to provide an overview and introduction into the physical and operational mechanism of the air transportation system. To think about new aircraft technologies or new airline business models, it is of paramount importance to understand the major interdependencies and interactions between the main stakeholders like airline, airport, air navigation services and aircraft manufacturer. Compared to other publications on air transportation the focus is on the basic and major technical and operational characteristics of different technologies and procedures to show the functional principles. The functional and process-oriented perspective on air transportation seems to be a key for future developments and progress. Therefore, the book starts with an introduction to the definition of the air transportation system and its main stakeholder. A historical look back on the development of the air transportation system highlighting the big steps forward is given in Chap. 2. Methods to predict the future of aviation, such as scenario technique and market forecasts of the various manufacturers, are presented in Chap. 3. Chapter 4 gives an overview of governmental rules and organizations, which directly affect air transportation. The safety philosophy of aviation is presented with an introduction to t
