How To Get A Rainbow Puffle In Club Penguin

The Board contributes € 400,000 to support the Airport

The Governing Council of Castile and Leon today approved a package of investment, the province of León adds up to about 5 million euros. Of these, 402,425 euros will be allocated to the promotion of the activity at the airport in León . The purpose of this budget to the Board is the creation of new flights and connections, and encourage a greater number of airlines operating from airports in the Community.

What Does The Sideways Mean? Peace Sign

The approximation 23 continues "castrated" UPL

For more than 7 months since the Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero inaugurated the latest enlargement of León airport runway to 3,000 m. However, the works were not fully completed, and both the ILS and approach lighting of runway 23 were not yet operational. Today, the infrastructure is complete absence of their operation, hopefully sooner rather than later, it would not be anything good that came the winter with the ILS inoperative and the landing distance of the 23 reduced to 2,100 m as it is now. In aeropuertodeleon.blogspot.com , we show which will shortly come into operation in León.


The ILS (Instrumental Landing System ) is a support system for approach and landing accuracy based on two distinct and complementary facilities, which are LOC (Localizer ) and GP (Glide Path ). The first, the locator, is at the end of the track and provides a guide for direction. Ie indicates whether the aircraft is aligned with the runway, and if not, indicates where it is giving an idea of \u200b\u200bhow close we are to the right direction. The second or glide path, said if the aircraft is in the plane inclined imaginary (surface lowering) fixed to the plane descends to the contact zone of the track with a glide angle previously set (usually 3 degrees). It is situated about 125 m. to the right of the runway, away from the top of this somewhat less than 300 m. It is also often supplemented with a DME (Distance Measuring Equipment ) indicating the aircraft's distance that is.

Theoretically, the aircraft to continue to reliably both directions, could land even without visibility. In reality, this is already possible, but the cost of installing both systems as precise as the equipment in aircraft and the need for additional training of pilots, does not pay for most airports. Would ILS Category IIIc. The category that until now has had the airport in León is Cat.I, which limits the decision height to 60 m. and runway visual range (RVR) to 550 m. To calculate the latter, the Institute has recently installed an airport Leon RVR measuring equipment. Also mention that the improvement to better Cat.II category decision height to 30 m. and the visual range to 350 m. and it is recommended for areas with frequent bad weather. Currently, most airports have an ILS neighbors Cat.II / III (Asturias, Valladolid, A Coruña ...) that is able to reduce the number of cancellations more or less fortunate in each of them.



also start operating a new If STEMA Lighting Precision Approach Cat.I (900 m) . This system provides a guide light in low light conditions, which complements the ILS providing visual reference from 900 m. before the threshold (see diagram). Emphasize


before the end of the article, contrary to what is being said in various newspapers of the province, the ILS does not allow the control tower to see where the aircraft. Is an independent radio aid is limited to a data broadcast by ground equipment is received and interpreted by the instruments of the aircraft, showing the pilot on the display of VOR. After the pilot is the only one who receives information from the ILS.

denounce in Parliament discriminatory treatment in older

The party represented in Parliament by Hector Joaquin Otero and Castresana, will present a new non-legislative proposal to defend the equality of Community Airports.

The problem lies in the travel currently carried out for the elderly Both by the Imserso as the "Club 60" (the latter depends directly of the Board). The flights of these trips are as unique Community Based Villanubla Valladolid Airport , and even carried out also from the Asturias and Madrid-Barajas. In this way, both as the Board Imserso shelve airports like Leon, which currently has sufficient infrastructure to cope with such operations.

also León province is where most people over 60 years . About 131,000 inhabitants, compared to just over 110,000 in the province of Valladolid. These figures are consistent with demand it is also higher in the province of León. Then there is no justification for what they are not made these flights from the airport in Leon, especially when according to The Leonese include trips are being made in that 90% of the participants were Leon.

The purpose of this proposal is that really fulfills the commitment made by the Junta de Castilla y León to defend equally and in practice the four airports in the Community.

From my point of view, what we see is what we have. I of the Airport Board of Leon have only seen the flag. Does grace, right? My iota.

Subaceous Cyst Removal Price

travel notes already have the June

We have
AENA provisional statistics for the month of June, and as usual, are not too good. Suppose to soften a bit, this time the public body has given the data in the January-June period rather than over the previous month.

As León airport in June have passed through its facilities 12,028 passengers, representing a fall of 19.05% on June 2007. A bad story that, even so, it begins to reduce falls of 24 and 21% in April and May (the consoles is not because they want). As to charge this month, beating a record in the enclave of Leon 1798 kg, adding so far this year 8,020 kg. It should be noted that the recently questioned HUB route to Madrid-Barajas was again the second largest, with 4,513 passengers, representing 37.5% of those who passed through the Virgen del Camino this month. Our neighbors

Asturias passengers grew to 147,982, increasing 3.59% compared to June 2007, while in Valladolid Airport also accumulated loss of 43,564 passengers, down -7.56%. Speaking

and the period January-June 2008 at the Leon, there were 62 800 passengers (-16.67%) and 3162 operations (11%), all over 2007.

Overall throughout the network for the AENA far this year, builds up a timid 2.85% growth in passengers, 0.7% in operations and a 3% charge.

With these data in hand, we can already say with some confidence that the annual figures for 2008 (and I hope I'm wrong and are best) will be between 120,000 and 140,000 passengers. If the summer work out in my opinion, the figure could be around 135,000 passengers.

Letter Of Congratulations On Church Anniversary

track lengths

Leaving aside all the standards and design criteria set out in detail in Annex 14 of ICAO and other regulations and recommendations for the planning of airports, I conduct a brief analysis on a topic that generates, at least, discussion. The problem of deciding if a track is either not sufficient for a certain airport is not easy, and therefore requires some aeronautical culture to speak of it as a means of communication (journalists) to get to approach the media to information public (general public). I hope that this information is useful, here I discuss with brief comments about the airport of Leon.

The Leon airport runway is 3,000 m long and 45 meters wide. A lot or a little? That is the question. And to answer we must look at many factors. Some are more or less obvious for anyone interested in the topic: demand, type aircraft at the airport, aspirations for the future ... However, from a more qualified view, the parameters to evaluate increases, temperature, slope, altitude ...

Each aircraft has defined curves that give the track needs in terms of different operating variables (weight, flap settings, engine, for example), temperature and altitude at the aerodrome. These curves are defined in the Airport Planning Manual of each aircraft, which offers the most relevant information for the operation, handling and airport design appropriate to it.

In general, in a first study in airports, are generally taken into account that the runway length requirements vary depending on:
  1. Altitude: increase by 7% per 300 m. above the sea (Above Sea Level: ASL).
  2. A 1% per degree from 15 ° C above the reference temperature aerodrome, which is the average daily maximum of the warmest month.
  3. 10% when effective grade is 1%.
The facilities of the Virgen del Camino is located to 916 m. ASL have a reference temperature of 28 º and slopes increase towards the center in less than 0.2%, except for the first 255 m. from the head 05. Thus, the bad and fast, the Leon airport for practical purposes have a clue of 2,400 m. if hubicáramos at sea level with a reference temperature of 15 degrees and fully flat.

From another point of view, if we go with the data from the airport in the Airport Planning an ERJ 145, fully loaded for take-off and needed something more than 2,650 m. There is not so far the figure of 3,000 m. before we could look somewhat elevated.

Why I have seen planes take off at the airport off in less than a thousand yards? The answer is security. Not that the need Embraer 2,650 m. to rise no more, but require them to do so with safety . Let's see this in more detail.

Engineers, at least act with some ethics, should be placed somewhat in the worst possible . In the case of the operation of the aircraft, we can make an example of a couple of situations that were clearly observed where the shots go on the issue that concerns us:
  1. Aircraft at maximum weight (MTOW) and failure motor before reaching v1 (velocity from which we must take off or yes, to understand), apply brake to stop, accelerate-stop .
  2. aircraft at maximum weight (MTOW) and last v1 engine failure, forcing the flight of a single engine (or all that apply): takeoff distance with engine failure .
addition, we must consider the influence of other factors that lengthen braking and hinder the arrest, the main rain or wet pavement, to extend both the accelerate-stop and landing distances .

is also interesting to note that not all the surface of a track is available for use in takeoffs or landings. For example, at the airport in Leon, the landing distance at this point in the approximation 23 is 2,100 meters, the displaced threshold to be 900 m. For other operations if fully available to 3,000 m.

For those who want to know more, I leave the links to a couple of letters from AENA the airport and another at the Airport Planning Manual of the ERJ 145.

Leopard Gecko Abscess Home Care

Awarded Environmental License for NAT

New Airport Terminal Area Leon has passed the environmental impact study presented in the municipality of Valverde de la Virgen on 20 June. The speed with which the process has taken place is because it is considered that the work does not produce significant alterations to the environment of the area and the willingness of the municipality in the airport, we have to thank all users of the Leon and installation.


Along with this announcement, there have been new data on how it will finally work, and to award the contract next. The same suggest that the terminal will finally 9,600 m² distributed on two floors, since the new parking spaces will 275 passenger buses and 8 , all shelters with a rate of Leon climate. In addition there will be two gardens of 1,050 and 2,950 m². Also known surface platform that will be 30,250 m² (read 275 x 110 m.). The total area to occupy the entire project is 48,150 sqm.
