Journal Title: Logistics and Transport - Year 2009, Vol 9, Issue 2
Abstract
The article presents ways of transportation system development which is possible to revolutionize personal air transport in the first half of the 21st century. Small Aircraft Transportation System – SATS uses small planes operating on the current aerodromic infrastructure. Aeroplanes operated by one pilot taking onboard up to 14 passengers should considerably speed up air transportation “from door to door” at the distance to 1500 kms. This aircraft should perform on airports with underdeveloped flight control systems, landing support systems or well developed infrastructure. The article comprises SATS system requirements on procedures, technologies and the modernization of flight control systems.
