    摘要: Disclosed are methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable medium for supersonic flight entry/exit management. For instance, the method may include determining whether a transition between supersonic and subsonic flight is approaching; and in response to determining the transition between subsonic and supersonic flight is approaching, performing a supersonic flight entry/exit process. The supersonic flight entry/exit process may include: obtaining center of gravity (CG) information for the vehicle, drag information for the vehicle, and a planned trajectory of the vehicle (trajectory data); performing an analysis of the trajectory data to determine whether the planned trajectory is safe and consistent; based on a result of the analysis, adjusting the planned trajectory or confirming the planned trajectory of the vehicle; and based on the adjusted planned trajectory or the confirmed planned trajectory of the vehicle, generating actuator instructions to execute the adjusted planned trajectory or the confirmed planned trajectory.

    摘要: The invention concerns an aircraft door having a lever (3) for emergency opening from outside, disposed in a lever window. The lever (3) for emergency opening from outside includes: a main arm (7) having a first aerodynamic surface (9); a profiled cowling (8) with a second aerodynamic surface (10); a driving stop (18) capable of rotating the profiled cowling (8) from its concealing position to its separated position when the main arm (7) passes from its retracted position to its deployed position.

    摘要: An arm restraint assembly configured to pierce a canopy in response to expulsion of an ejection seat from a cockpit may comprise a primary arm configured to pivot relative to the ejection seat. A canopy piercer may be coupled to the primary arm. The primary arm may be configured to rotate to a fully-deployed position while located within the cockpit. An apex of the canopy piercer may be oriented toward the canopy, when the primary arm is in the fully-deployed position.

    摘要: An emergency actuation device for opening a door, the emergency actuation device includes: at least one pressurised gas supply; an actuator including: an actuator chamber, an actuator piston moveable between a retracted position and a fully extended position to open the door, a vent for venting the actuator chamber when the actuator piston is in its extended position. The emergency actuation device further includes a percussion device including a percussion piston moveable on activation of the percussion device between: a storage position in which the pressurised gas supply is isolated from the actuator and an activated position in which the pressurised gas supply is coupled to the actuator. The actuator is coupled to the percussion device; and the actuator is configured such that movement of the actuator piston towards its activated position resets the percussion piston.

    摘要: A passenger door arrangement for an aircraft segment, which arrangement comprises a passenger door, which is configured to assume a raised state and a lowered state, and a “girt bar,” for arming and disarming an escape slide, the girt bar not altering its position relative to the passenger door in the transition from disarming to arming, when the passenger door is in the lowered state. Additionally an aircraft segment, which comprises the passenger door portion and a fuselage portion, an external engagement arrangement being fixed to the fuselage portion.

    摘要: An inflatable flotation device includes a main body having a distal end and a proximal end configured to be positioned nearer to the aircraft than the distal end, the main body configured to inflate to provide an evacuation route. The inflatable flotation device further includes an extendable portion coupled to the proximal end of the main body and having a plurality of segments coupled together. The inflatable flotation device further includes a weighted object coupled to the extendable portion and configured to cause the extendable portion to extend in response to a distance from the proximal end of the main body being equal to or greater than a threshold distance.

    摘要: An aspirator may comprise an aspirator body defining an air channel. An aspirator barrel may have a first aspirator barrel segment coupled to the aspirator body and may have a second aspirator barrel segment. The second aspirator barrel segment configured to fit at least partially within the first aspirator barrel segment when the aspirator barrel is in a stowed state and configured to interlock with the first aspirator barrel segment in an extended position when the aspirator barrel is in a deployed state.

    摘要: An overhead rest area is provided in the crown of an aircraft above the ceiling for the main passenger cabin. A permanent access stairway is provided at one end of the overhead rest area, and an emergency escape apparatus is provided at another location of the rest area. The emergency escape apparatus can include a slide swingable between a closed position in which its underside forms a smooth continuation of the ceiling of the passenger cabin and a downward swung open position providing an escape route from the overhead rest area to the passenger cabin.
