  With flight traffic increasing every year, it is imperative for air traffic control to operate flights safely, evenly, and quickly to create the highest efficiency. Air traffic control's main job is to ensure a safe distance or separation between aircraft. To do that, Vietnam applies a minimum distance between aircraft of 1,000 feet (304.8m) at altitude or horizontally, 5 miles (9.26 km) in approach airspace, and 10 miles (18.52km) in long-haul airspace. Air traffic control must maintain contact with the pilot throughout the flight and must always monitor and understand the flight route starting from departure until landing to ensure absolute safety. Ensuring flight safety is a top priority.  Airport Traffic Control is divided into many different parts which include  Terminal Radar Approach Control, and Air route traffic control centers. Their common feature is the purpose of keeping flight safe and ensure smooth traffic and respond to any emergency. The difference betw...

      Noise, which can be defined as any unwanted sound, can cause profound negative effects on humans’ health and their physical, psychological and social well-being and quality of life. Since the emergence of the aviation industry, aircraft noise has been one of the most important sources of excessive noise generated by human activities. Two sources of aircraft noise are the engines, which include two major types of jet and piston engines, and the aircraft frame. In the view of the fact that aircraft produces more noise during take-off and landing, airports are considered to be important contributors to the problem of excessive noise, and from a community’s perspective, one of the most obvious environmental problems of airport activities is noise pollution. In addition, noise generated by ground access systems in the airport landside area adds to the already existing problem of excessive noise in airports.      With respect to the problem of excessiv...

 T he world is concerned about environmental conservation and management; domestic and international legislations have been enacted to control operations in different industries in the efforts of attaining sustainable development agendas. The aviation industry has had its share of controls that have affected its operations negatively and positively. National Air Transport Association applauds the efforts made by environment conservation movements, but it is quick to point out that Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) policies have limited growth in the industry.   According to the FAA environmental Review is one of several mandatory steps in the FAA Office of Commercial Space Transportation license or permit application process.  The environmental review for your application must meet the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (42 United States Code (U.S.C.) § 4321), the Council on Environmental Quality Regulations (40 Code of Federal Regulations...

 In the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Human Factors is defined as a “multidisciplinary effort to generate and compile information about human capabilities and limitations and apply that information to equipment, systems, facilities, procedures, jobs, environments, training, staffing, and personnel management for safe, comfortable, and effective human performance” (FAA Order 9550.8A). FAA human factors researchers seek to understand the physical, behavioral, cognitive, and social characteristics of aviation professionals—such as pilots, air traffic controllers, technical operations specialists, and aircraft maintenance technicians—and the systems that they use. The term human factors has grown increasingly popular as the commercial aviation industry realize that human error, rather than mechanical failure, underlies most aviation accidents and incidents. Human factors science or technologies are multidisciplinary fields incorporating contributions from psychology, engineeri...

  Today, one of the aviation problems occurring in some countries is the smuggling of goods via air. The tricks of the air traffickers are always very sophisticated. If in the past, the subject often used the trick of following people, now there have been many cases where the goods went on the trip, the owner of the goods went on another trip.  Or there is a case of sharing the same flight, but people sit in one place, and the goods are left in another position. When the functional forces discovered it, it was considered derelict goods.  One of the notable problems of smuggling by air is that there are many rare and quarterly cases of great value. In which, it is common to buy goods in foreign countries and send them to a third country for sale. Goods cannot provide documents, in addition to the situation of goods tax evasion. Some objects to avoid detection should only transport goods in small amounts in the form of gifts each time. Smuggled goods are usually compact and...
