As environmental concerns increasingly dominate public consciousness, businesses are called upon to incorporate green methods and processes into their operations strategy. The aviation industry is no exception and is responsible for taking more actions to reduce the negative environmental impact. Designing and implementing a top-down strategy conscious of environmental impact is a monumental challenge. Only with a full understanding of the scientific and logistical hurdles can a green approach to airline operations succeed. Airline Green Operations Strategies: Emerging Research and Opportunities is an essential publication that examines methods of managing and limiting harmful waste and emissions from airlines and supports the adoption of the most effective green operation strategies, policies, and regulations by airlines. Highlighting a broad range of topics including greenhouse gases, noise management, and competitive priorities, this book is ideally designed for executives, manufacturers, environmentalists, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and students.

In 2000, the Fleet Air Arm Museum conservation team embarked on an ambitious project to explore what remained of any original paintwork and markings on its Second World War Corsair fighter aircraft. The painstaking, inch-by-inch removal of a 1960s paint layer from the whole aircraft slowly revealed that the entire aircraft remained authentic and original in its 1940s wartime condition. The detailed forensic approach allowed the valuable and many unique details to be studied and preserved, enabling the team to chart the aircraft's history from factory to end of Royal Navy service. Thanks to new research, this updated edition of Corsair KD431 contains new images and findings concerning the story of how Lt Cdr Godfrey Woodbine-Parish returned from Ceylon in the Second World War, and also the use of Brewster Aircraft components on Goodyear factory-built aircraft.
