Mew","doi":"10.58940/2329-258x.1543","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.58940/2329-258x.1543","url":null,"abstract":"in-flight entertainment is likely to greatly expand its content over the next few years, mirroring changes that are occurring interrestrial di@ entertaimmt and communication systems. Most in-flight enterkimmt systems have been based on either in-plane, aircraft-to-ground, or aircraft-to-satellite technologies. The expansion of content expected in the near future will require advanced transmission systems that will be both technically and commercially able to deliver broadband services. This paper explores the strengths and weaknesses of existing transmissions technologies and suggests aircraft-to-aircraft transmission technology may offer advantages that other systems do not. While most people associate in-flight entertainment (IFE) with airplanevideo and audio channels accessed from an armrest, the types of entertainment available on commercial aircraft are likely to abruptly change over the next decade. Reflecting these likely changes, the World Airline Entertainment Association defines in-flight entertainment (IFE) as including communications (telephony, fax, e-mail, data links), information (news, weather, stock quotes, Web content), and interactive services (video games, shoppinglecommerce, surfing the Web), as well as the traditional audio and video entertainment. The increasing emphasis on new types of digital applications is an indication of the promise of IFE as a powerful marketing tool for commercial airiines, especially since the success of JetBlue Airline's 24channel television network introduced in April 2000. Economic slowdown and the events of September 1 1, 2001 have negatively impacted the global and domestic demand for in-flight entertainment, particularIy for commercial aircraft, but an upturn in the industry may be associated with the introduction of new IFE applications in an attempt to replicate the success of JetBlue Airlines. Frost and Sullivan Inc. estimate that by 2007, I F ' revenue will grow to $7.4 billion (IPECC, 2002). United Airlines in their in-flight magazine suggest there might be operational cost and customer service synergies from IFE introduction too Wm, 2003). This paper reviews how these future IFE applications will be transmitted to air& and suggests that current transmissions systems may not be the best conduit for them.","PeriodicalId":335288,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Aviation/Aerospace Education & Research","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125545505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research was to lead to a prototype supersonic transport that would begin flying by the end of the first decade of the 2 1 Century. The factors for the cancellation of this program were never made clear other than the competing funding of the International Space Station.

Complications secondary to diabetes can be severe and result in sudden incapacitation. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has developed regulabons for certifLrng aviators with diabetes, as well as guidelines for in-flight management of blood glucose levels. Advances in medical technology have led to treatments and countermeasures for diabetes that enable many individuals to engage in physically and mentally demanding activities. This paper presents a basic overview of the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and maaagement of diabetes mellitus in civil aviators. In addition, current FAA regulations for medid certification and blood glucose management will be outlined. BACKGROUND In order to understand the hazard that diabetes poses to a pilot's health and flying safety, one must understand the nature of this condition. Diabetes is a metabolic condition that usually presents with symptoms of uncontrolled blood sugar, such as increased urination, persistent thirst, hquent urination at night, and weight loss (Braunstein, G.D., Friedman, T., Herman-Bonert, V., Peters, A.L., 1997). A random blood sugar level greater than 200 mgldl usually confirms the diagnosis. Diabetes mellitus is a lifelong disease that can lead to blindness, heart and blood vessel disease, strokes, kidney failure, amputations, nerve damage, and death. Diabetes is generally the result of the body's inability to produce enough insulin, resistance to insulin, or both (Braunstein et al., 1997). Insulin is a polypeptide hormone secreted by the islets of Langerhans, located in the pancreas. Its primary function is to regulate the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats, especially the conversion of glucose to glycogen. This conversion is what lowers the blood glucose level. In addition, insulin allows nutrients to enter the muscle were it can be stored and later used for energy. How does this process unfold during our daily consumption of food? Food is digested in the stomach and the intestines where carbohydrates are broken down in to sugar molecules, or glucose. At this point glucose is absorbed into the circulatory system, causing the blood glucose levels to rise. In response to elevated blood glucose levels, the pancreas releases insulin from beta cells. There are 18.2 million people in the United States, or 6.3% of the @tion, who have diabetes (American Diabetes Association, 2003). While an estimated 13 million have been diagnosed, unfortunately, 5.2 million people (or nearly onethird) are unaware that they have the disease (ADA, 2003). on xi mat el^ 2,200 people are diagnosed with diabetes each day. Almost 800,000 people will be diagnosed each year. Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death and sixth-leading cause of death by disease in the United States (ADA, 2003). TYPE I DIABETES Diabetes is generally classified into two basic categories: type I and type 11.
