The new PARAS Synthesis of #Security Practices for #Airside Vehicle Operations is out and available at this link: https://www.sskies.org/paras/reports/. The Program for Applied Research in #Airport Security (PARAS) is an industry-driven, applied #research program that develops near-term practical solutions to security problems faced by airport operators. PARAS is managed by Safe Skies and funded by the FAA. It was a pleasure serving on the project panel for PARAS 0065. ✈️ #airports #airtravel #aviation #avsec

And another TRB Annual Meeting behind us! 😊 #DYK? This was the 105th AM... Yes, that's right, TRB is over 100-year-old! ⏳ Also, #TRBAM is the largest #transportation #research and #engineering event in the world. 🌎 This year's edition may have not hit a record for attendance. But I believe there were over 10,000 participants! 🙌🚁🛩️✈️🚀 #airports #airtravel #aviation #safetyfirst #wearewsp

#DYK? Air France has been painting its historic "crevette" (shrimp) logo on wingtips since 2013–adding what I find a very classy touch to the livery. The shrimp was the logo of Air Orient which merged with AF in 1933. ✈️ #airfrance #airtravel #aviation

Great pleasure presenting last Thursday on accommodating hydrogen-powered electric VTOL (H2eVTOL) aircraft technologies at vertiports to the @VTOLsociety Arizona Chapter as part of their Tech Talks. This was my last speech of the year... Watch the recording here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xiaFoQqZHM. 🚁

The idea of stretching the 777X and A350 is not new... But can these extra-long #aircraft fit in? The newest widebody terminal facilities were planned and designed assuming a notional 80 m-long and -wide airliners at best. So far, no "New Large Aircraft" has crossed the edges of that imaginary containment box.

#DYK? You can read the train speed in real-time when you ride the Alfa Pendular train in Portugal. 🇵🇹 Another fun fact... 162 km/h is not yet considered "high speed"! 😱 In Europe, it has to reach 200 km/h on legacy infra or 250 km/h on HSR. Lost in translation (and USCS/metric conversion)? 😉 Again, we got you covered... We talk about U.S. terminology here: https://nap.nationalacademies.org/read/28600/chapter/6#65. 🚄 #infrastructure #mobility #traingeeks #transportation

What do connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) mean in terms of driving? Can they all share the same roads with less-automated vehicles? What are their infrastructure implications? And what about roadway safety? What's an autonomous vehicle? What's the difference between ADAS and ADS? 🤔🚗🤖
We provide some answers here: https://nap.nationalacademies.org/read/28600/chapter/7. Read ACRP Research Report 236!

For once I'm going to recommend a non-aviation book... If you read Portuguese and you are interested in the Indigenous peoples of Brazil, don't miss Raoni: Memórias do cacique. Far from a conventional (and sometimes sleepy) bio, this important work features a unique collection of stories and memories about the past, the present, and the future of the Amazonian tribes and their struggle for the recognition and protection of their rights. #ReadBooks

Supersonic #airliners are trendy these days. XB-1 flew M>1.0 this year: https://www.livescience.com/technology/engineering/nasa-captures-stunning-new-image-of-shock-waves-from-next-gen-supersonic-plane-as-it-flies-across-the-sun. COMAC is studying low-boom technologies: https://aviationweek.com/aerospace/emerging-technologies/comac-studies-low-boom-supersonic-airliner-future-option.
But is there really a future for #supersonic air #transportation? And how could they fit in tomorrow's #airport context?
