    1 Information about B737-600

    1.1 737 family

    The members of the Next-Generation 737 family -- the 737-600/-700/-800/-900ER models

    continue the 737's popularity and reliability in commercial jetliner transport. The 737 are short-to-medium-range airplanes that have a modern flight deck using the most advanced navigation

    technology available today. Airlines can choose to provide their flight crews with either the latest

    display format, common with models such as the 777, or opt for data format commonality with

    earlier 737 models.

    The Next-Generation 737 family is offered in four sizes, ranging from 110 to 220 seats. The

    737-600 is the smallest member of the family and can carry 110 to 132 passengers. Scandinavian

    Airlines (SAS) became the launch customer for the 737-600 on March 15, 1995, when the airline

    ordered 35 airplanes. The 737-600 earned type certification from the U.S. Federal Aviation

    Administration (FAA) on Aug. 14, 1998, followed by Europe's Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA)

    validation on September 4, 1998. First delivery of the 737-600 went to SAS in the third quarter of

    1998.

    1.2 A bigger wing, longer range and higher speed

    The 737-600/-700/-800/-900ER models incorporate a new, advanced-technology wing design

    that helps increase fuel capacity and efficiency, both of which increase range. On each wing, the

    chord is increased by about 20 inches (50 cm) and the total span by approximately 18 feet (5.5 m).

    The total wing area is increased by 25 percent to 1,341 square feet (125 m), providing 30 percent

    more fuel capacity for a total of 6,875 U.S. gallons (26,020 L).

    The 737-600 doesnt have the new Blended Winglets-technology, which boost performance,enhance range, fuel efficiency and take-off performance while lowering carbon emissions, engine

    maintenance costs and noise this is available only for the 737-700, -800 and -900ER. The advanced

    wing airfoil design provides an economical cruise speed of .78 Mach (590 mph).

    1.3 Advanced engine technology

    In April 2009, Boeing and CFM introduced the new CFM56-7BE engine enhancement

    program to coincide with 737 airframe improvements. The combination reduces fuel consumption

    by two percent. CFM's engine hardware changes improve airflow, and the engine runs at cooler

    temperatures resulting in a one percent reduction in fuel consumption. Boeing's airplane structuralimprovements will reduce drag, reducing fuel use by about one percent. The combined

    improvements also equal a two percent reduction in carbon emissions. Depending on an engine's

    thrust rating, the new engine will provide up to four percent lower maintenance costs. In 2007, CFM

    introduced a tech insertion package for the CFM56-7B engine. The Tech Insertion engine lowers

    fuel consumption by one percent over the life of the engine and lowers maintenance costs by 12

    percent through longer time on wing and improved durability. The Tech Insertion engine also

  • 7/31/2019 Airport Compatibility 737-600

    5/24

    B736-LRBS-ESSAY-AIR.Nav 4

    reduces nitrous oxide emissions by 25 percent. CFM is a joint venture between General Electric Co.

    of the U.S. and Snecma of France. All of its engines meet strict international emissions restrictions

    and when efficiently integrated on the 737, meet international noise restrictions.

    1.4 737 Boeing Interior

    Drawing from years of research inspired by the travel experience, the 737 Boeing Interior

    features new, modern sculpted sidewalls and window reveals that draw passenger eyes to the

    airplane's windows, giving passengers a greater connection to the flying experience. The new design

    offers larger, pivoting overhead stowage bins that add to the openness of the cabin. The bins give

    more passengers room to store a carry-on roll-aboard near their own seat, adding both extra

    convenience and extra leg room. Boeing redesigned reading-light switches so passengers can find

    them more easily and avoid accidentally pressing the flight-attendant call button. Speakers

    integrated into each row's passenger-service unit will improve sound and clarity of public address

    operations, while the new air grill is tamper-proof and improves operational security.

    1.5 Demonstrates Continuous Improvement

    The Next-Generation 737 program continuously evaluates and incorporates value-added

    technologies and design innovations to improve performance and capabilities. Recent offerings

    include short-field performance enhancements to increase payload capacity and reduce takeoff and

    landing field length; and carbon brakes to reduce weight for improved airplane operating

    economics.

  • 7/31/2019 Airport Compatibility 737-600

    6/24

    B736-LRBS-ESSAY-AIR.Nav 5

    Other changes include leading-edge display and flight-management software that allows the

    airplane to fly the most restricted navigation routes through use of industry leading Required

    Navigation Performance. The Next-Generation 737 is the first commercial jet airplane certified for

    Ground Positioning System landings, which use satellite technology to make landings more

    efficient, accurate, and environmentally friendly.

    The Next-Generation 737 flight deck is equipped with technologies such as Vertical Situation

    Display, which shows the current and predicted flight path of the airplane and indicates potential

    conflicts with terrain; and Head-Up Display, which provides pilots with "eye-level" flight and safety

    information. These optional features are examples of how the Next-Generation 737 is designed to

    reduce flight delays, enhance safety and flight-crew efficiency.

    3.1 Rescue and Fire Fighting

    When we speak about rescue and fire fighting we really speak about safety and from our

    course support we can substract that a good safety management system is one that prevents all typesof accidents but when those fail an airport must be prepared to act fast in containing or eliminating

    the threat.Most airports never have to participate in the recovery of a large commercial airplane, one in

    which the airplane may be off the runway, buried in mud with broken landing gear or worse. For

    most airports around the world, it is typically the responsibility of the airplane operator to conductthe recovery. However, since the airport is typically involved in supporting the recovery operation

    and given that most airports have only a single runway to support flight operations, it is in the

    airports best interest to expedite the recovery and return the airport to normal flight operations.

    This might be a problem for Baneasa airport which is equiped only for fire fighting lacking rescue

    equipment and capability for removal of disabled aircraft.

    If fire occurs on the aerodrome it is capable of containing it having a category 7 fire fightingcapability on icao scale (Category 7 - 39m (128.0') -

    During turnaround at the terminal, certain services must be performed on the aircraft, usually

    within a given time, to meet flight schedules. This section shows service vehicle arrangements,

    schedules, locations of service points, and typical service requirements. The data presented in this

    section reflect ideal conditions for a single airplane. Service requirements may vary according to

    airplane condition and airline procedure. Picture 3 shows typical arrangements of ground support

    equipment during turnaround. As noted, if the auxiliary power unit (APU) is used, the electrical, air

    start, and air-conditioning service vehicles would not be required. Passenger loading bridges or

    portable passenger stairs could be used to load or unload passengers.

    Pic.4 and pic.5 show typical service times at the terminal. These charts give typical schedules

    for performing service on the airplane within a given time. Service times could be rearranged to suit

    availability of personnel, airplane configuration, and degree of service required.

    B736-LRBS-ESSAY-AIR.Nav 17

    From the information above (3.2) and from all the information in chapter 2(Information about

    Baneasa Airport) we deducted that the turning radii and turning paths of the 737-600 are smaller

    than the space that is made available on the aerodrome only on TWY B,C and D; that the service

    vehicle arrangements, schedules, locations of service points, typical service requirements, service

    times at the terminal and ground towing requirements are in the airports possibilities; and olso that

    the typical sea level air pressure and flow requirements for starting the engines are met by the

    relativly low elevation (299FT) aerodrome.

    3.3 Pavement Data (physical surface movement analysis)

    Baneasa aerodrome has the 64 pavement classification number, with a rigid pavement type,

    ultra low subgrade category(Code D - Ultra Low Strength, k = 75 pci (20 MN/m3)), no limit tire

    pressure category, it is evaluated through a technical method and it is made of asphalt.

    The following rigid pavement design chart presents the data for the incremental main gear

    load at the minimum tire pressure required at the maximum design taxi weight.

    B736-LRBS-ESSAY-AIR.Nav 20

    The airplane configuration is depicted with a minimum range of five loads imposed on the

    main landing gear to aid in interpolation between the discrete values shown. A. presents basic dataon the landing gear footprint configuration, maximum design taxi loads, and tire sizes and

    pressures. Maximum pavement loads for certain critical conditions at the tire-to-ground interface

    are shown in B., with the tires having equal loads on the struts. Pavement requirements for

    commercial airplanes are customarily derived from the static analysis of loads imposed on the mainlanding gear struts. The chart in C. is provided in order to determine these loads throughout the

    stability limits of the airplane at rest on the pavement. These main landing gear loads are used as the

    point of entry to the pavement design charts, interpolating load values where necessary. Rigidpavement design curves D. have been prepared with the Westergaard equation in general

    accordance with the procedures outlined in the Design of Concrete Airport Pavement (1955 edition)

    by Robert G. Packard, published by the Portland Cement Association, 5420 Old Orchard Road,Skokie, Illinois 60077-1083. These curves are modified to the format described in the Portland

    Cement Association publication XP6705-2, Computer Program for Airport Pavement Design

    (Program PDILB), 1968, by Robert G. Packard.

    With the data aquired from Boeing on Pavement Data for B737 (3.3) and with the data on

    runway physical characteristics for Baneasa airport from AIP Romania, we can say for sure that theairplane is suited for operating on LRBS RWY and TWY.

    3.4 Preventing Runway Incursions

    A runway incursion is "any occurrence in the airport runway environment involving an

    aircraft, vehicle, person, or object on the ground that creates a collision hazard or results in a loss ofrequired separation with an aircraft taking off, intending to take off, landing, or intending to land."

    The demanding environment associated with aerodrome operations on a runway requires that

    all participants accurately receive, understand, and correctly read back all air traffic control

    clearances and instructions. All access to a runway (even if inactive) should take place only after a

    positive AT C clearance has been given / received and a correct readback has been provided /accepted, and after the stop bar (where provided) has been switched off; providing a clearance in a

    timely manner, as the aircraft is approaching the relevant runway, will help to prevent runwayincursions.

    One simple way of preventing runway incursions is knowing the airport well, ground

    operations can be the most demanding and complex phase of flight and detailed airport diagrams arehelpful so it is advised reviewing airport diagrams before taxiing or landing, keeping airport/taxi

    diagrams readily available during taxiing, requesting progressive taxiing instructions from air traffic

    control, being alert to airport vehicle and pedestrian activity.

    Animals on the runway are a particularly pervasive problem at many airports if this is thecase with LRBS a solution must be created. Pilots can use proven and effective procedures in the

    cockpit to help conduct safe operations on the ground and during takeoff and landing.

    Other solution for runway incursions are maintain a sterile cockpit environment, avoiding

    unnecessary conversation during surface operations, takeoff, and landing, constantly scaningoutside of the cockpit, especially when on runways, if one is lost while taxiing on the surface, one

    must contact air traffic control immediately, making your aircraft visible by proper use of aircraft

    lights, if one is unfamiliar with the airport one must request progressive taxi instructions, ensuringproper radio operation, checking audio panel, volume control, and squelch settings, knowing and

    following lost communication procedures, and use good judgment should radio failure occur.

    22/24

    B736-LRBS-ESSAY-AIR.Nav 21

    Both parts should have no problem preventing runway incursions the airport has no

    intersecting runways and it is well operated and the airplane is a relatively new model it has all thenecesary means to prevent a runway incursion. Although they have good capabilities and ICAO has

    in place a lots of plans and legislations that keep in check most of the causes the main problem is

    the human factor (on runway without a valid clearance, readback errors, misunderstanding

    instructions, misunderstanding signs and markings, taking off without a clearance).

    3.5 Analysis of services required to maintain operability all year

    When one speaks about services required to maintain operability all year at least in Romaniaone inevitably speaks about winter, it is a good thing that when it comes to winter couping

    capabilities of LRBS is well equiped having one snow blower, two sweepers, four snow ploughs

    and two spreders and the Boeing company has a policy on using ice control sand. Normally, airports

    apply ice control sand when they have no other means available to remedy slippery, frozen surfacesituations. Boeing recommends airport operators remove the sand just as soon as the reason for its

    application has passed, thereby minimizing any foreign object damage potential. Ice control sand is

    intended to be applied by the airport very sparingly, aiming to avoid accumulations, and in such a

    way so as to embed into the ice or snow surface so as to create traction on the frozen surface. Themost widely recognized specification for ice control sand is from ICAO (the International Civil

    Aviation Organization) which calls for:100% of the sand to pass a 4.75 mm (#4) sieve, 97 to 100%

    passing a 2.36 mm (#8) sieve, 30 to 60% passing a 1.18 mm (#16) sieve, 0 to 10% passing a .30 mm(#50) sieve, and 0 to 2% passing a .18 mm (#80) sieve.

    3.6 Operating in adverse weather conditions

    Baneasa airport has flight procedures on low visibility

    1. Description of facilities

    1.1 Runway 07 is equipped with ILS and is approved for CAT II operations. Runways 07/25 are

    approved for LVTO.2. Criteria for the initiation and termination of LVP

    2.1 Approach and landing

    a) The preparation phase will be implemented when visibility falls below 1500m and is deterioratedto 800m or ceiling is 500ft and is deteriorated to 200ft and CAT II operations are expected.

    b) The operations phase will be commenced when the RVR falls below to 600m (visibility falls

    below 800m) or ceiling is below 200ft.c) LVP will be terminated when RVR is greater than 600m (visibility is greater than 800m) and

    ceiling is greater than 200ft and a continuing improvement in these conditions is anticipated.

    2.2 Take-off

    a) LVP operations will be provided when requested by an aircraft operator to conduct LVTO when

    the RVR is below 400M.b) If LVP operations are not in force, LVTO must be requested a minimum of 30 minutes in

    advance to permit the appropriate preparations.3. Details of runway exits

    3.1 Runway exits are equipped with green / yellow coded taxiway centerline lights. After landing on

    RWY 07, BSA TWR shall instruct the pilot to vacate the RWY via TWY A or TWY D or hold inturning bay.

    4. Any ground movement restrictions

    4.1 Upon receiving taxi clearance, aircraft must only proceed when a green centreline path is

    illuminated.4.2 During LVTO, taxiing is normally restricted to one aircraft movement at a time. Operation of

    vehicles on the manoeuvring area is not permitted when LVTO is in progress.

    5. Description of LVP

    5.1 CAT II Approach and Landinga) Pilots will be informed by ATIS or RTF when LVP are in operation;

    b) The localizer sensitive area will be protected when a landing aircraft is within 4 NM from

    touchdown and whenc) an aircraft is conducting a guided take-off. ATC will provide suitable spacing between aircraft on

    final approach to achieve this objective.

    5.2 Low Visibility Take Offa) Pilots wishing to conduct a guided take-off must inform ATC on start-up in order to ensure that

    protection of the localizer sensitive area is provided.

    6. Other information

    Aircraft movements on the apron must be carried out with the direction of a FOLLOW ME car.

    3.7 Facilities for serving passengers

    Baneasa airport has first aid, snack bars, exchange office and transportation office in theterminal area. In the central zone and the departure airport, passengers can access the Internet free

    of charge, through the Wireless Internet Zone. Many international personalities landed on Bucharest

    Baneasa Aurel Vlaicu International Airport. Those include the Pope Ioan Paul II who landed on thisairport in 1999, then in 2007, Prince Albert II of Monaco landed in personal aircraft. Also in 2007

    Bill Gates landed here for the official launching of Windows Vista in Romania. In 2009, on the

    occasion of her concert in Bucharest, Madonna landed also in personal aircraft on Baneasa Airport.

    Protocol services provided by Bucharest Baneasa Aurel Vlaicu International Airport enter a series

    of facilities: HD TV, Fax, Copier, Mini Bar, Internet, own parking. On the Landside passengers canrent cars, take a taxi or the bus as a means of transportation. It is very close to Baneasa Shopping

    center and only 8km away from Bucharest were they can find hotels, restaurants, hospitals, banks,post and touris offices.

    Boeing drawing from years of research inspired by the travel experience, the 737 Boeing Sky

    Interior features new, modern sculpted sidewalls and window reveals that draw passenger eyes tothe airplane's windows, giving passengers a greater connection to the flying experience. The new

    design offers larger, pivoting overhead stowage bins that add to the openness of the cabin. The bins

    give more passengers room to store a carry-on roll-aboard near their own seat, adding both extra

    convenience and extra leg room. Boeing redesigned reading-light switches so passengers can findthem more easily and avoid accidentally pressing the flight-attendant call button. Speakers

    integrated into each row's passenger-service unit will improve sound and clarity of public address

    operations, while the new air grill is tamper-proof and improves operational security.

    Working hand in hand Baneasa airport and Boeing would offer a good choise for customers ifB737-600 operated on LRBS.

    4 Conclusion

    In conclusion from all the chapters (1,2,3) we can say with out any doubt that B737-600

    can operate on LRBS very well the only downsides that can be seen is the lack in rescue

    equipment, capability for removal of disabled aircraft, hangar space for visiting aircraft and

    repair facilities for visiting aircraft but those arent a priority. The B737-600 specs had norestrictions on LRBS operating capabilities making it a very good candidate for operating on

    Baneasa Airport.

    The landside of the aerodrome lacks hotels, restaurants, hospitals, banks, post and

    touris offices but the fact that it is so close to the Romanian capital makes this downsides

    obselete.
