You can permanently lose:
680 News traffic reports
The Weather Network weather forecasting for the communities of Markham and Richmond Hill
Toronto Airways

They can't move anywhere else!

Here are some possibilities:
CYYZ (Toronto Pearson International Airport) can't be used; it handles international traffic and would force lengthy delays for small aircraft (Distance from Toronto: 11.9 KM)
CYTZ (Toronto Billy Bishop International Airport) can't be used; a cramped space would not allow more aircraft and international traffic makes use of a warehouse to be out of the question (Distance from Toronto:  1 KM (due to flying time))
CYZD (Toronto Downsview Airport) Used as a manufacturing facility and cannot be used for the public (Distance from Toronto: approx 15 KM)

The organisations nearest airport that they can use is Oshawa Airport (CYOO) and is more than 40 KM from downtown Toronto and cannot be used as it would take 30 minutes from Oshawa to Toronto. As for the Weather Network, they would have to pay to use land as in Buttonville Airport, the amount of pay was low as it was essential for the Weather Network to conduct forecasting for wind and temperature for the aircraft taking off and landing.

What On Earth Is This?!?

Qantas flight 32

Hit birds?
no.
No Fuel?
no.
What?
The engine broke itself. Literally.

Another Tenerife Disaster Happened! This Time, in Toronto!

One of the deadliest near miss to happen on Canadian soil today. Literally, the American Eagle flight and the Air Canada flight were just feet from each other to crash. This article will be coming soon on this blog. After/or if, the final report and the Air Traffic Control voice recorder become for public use, I will analyze these and create my own final report along with a timeline of events.

Aerodynamics: What is it?

Aerodynamics: What is it?
By: Aerospot
Aerodynamics doesn't seem to interest the general public. Normally, when someone hear the word "Aero", they often refer it to airplanes or the massive engines abord a jet. Aerodynamics doesn't just apply to the world of advanced aviation and its partner, aeronautics. Aerodynamics apply to planes, engines, cars, trains, boats and even yourself, you have aerodynamical properties. Aerodynamics involves, in aviation, drag, thrust, weight and lift, the four principles of flight. When you run, you have aerodynamical properties. When you run, you can make yourself faster by changing your aerodynamical properties. For example, if you run with a clenched fist, you create drag, therefore, making yourself slower and harder for you to run fast. But, when you run with your hand straight at your side against the wind, you reduce the amount of drag making it easier for you to run and, therefore, run faster. This is a basic rule of aerodynamics, which involves 2 of the principles of flight indicated above. Aerodynamics is an interaction with a moving object. This means that anything that moves, has aerodynamics involved. In advanced science, aerodynamics is a branch of dynamics. Cars have aerodynamical properties too. A car produces drag when it hits the oncoming air. The thrust in this part is the engine, which provides power to move forward. Aerodynamics, which involves trains and cars, also has significant in the area of air and flight. Specifically moving to aviation and aeronautics. In aviation, you do not have only lift and drag, you have all sorts of things like turbulence (differences in air pressure), pressure changes, even strong winds can affect the airplanes performance and even it's aerodynamical characteristics. The winds can be a factor of thrust, or a factor of drag. If the wind is a tailwind (a wind that goes in the direction of the plane - push the aircraft forward) is a thrust factor. If the wind is a headwind (a wind that goes in the opposite direction of the plane - pushes the aircraft backward) is a drag factor. The reason why a headwind is like a drag factor is because it makes it harder for the aircraft to gain speed. The reason why a tailwind is like a thrust factor is because it makes it easier for the aircraft to gain speed. Remember, aerodynamics is not just about planes, about every moving thing.

"It looks like dual engine failure"

Watch the terrifying story of flight 38 as they crash short of London Heathrow Airport.

The Joke.

The Book Recommendation

Fly-by-Wire The Geese The Glide The Miracle of the Hudson
By: William Langewiesche
Take a tour about the Hudson River and how an aircraft ditched on that very river in January 2009. Go back to the very design of the aircraft, the Airbus A320 to its engineers then the airline and the ditching itself.

Aerospot Rating: (Post a comment to choose your rating! Even choose from about the summary based on your thoughts!) I'll also bring the book!
