GLOSSARY
Air Carrier - any citizen of the United States who undertakes, whether<BR>directly or indirectly or by a lease or any other arrangement, to engage<BR>in air transportation. The holders of an Air Carrier Operating<BR>Certificate include domestic air carriers, flag air carriers,<BR>supplemental air carriers, scheduled helicopter operators, and commuter<BR>air carriers.<BR>Air Commerce - the intrastate, interstate, overseas, and foreign<BR>carriage of persons or property for compensation or hire, including<BR>carriage of mail, or the operation or navigation of aircraft in the<BR>conduct or furtherance of a business or vocation.<BR>Air Transportation - the interstate, intrastate, overseas, and foreign<BR>carriage of persons or property by common carrier for compensation or<BR>hire.<BR>Commercial Operator - an operator other than air carrier, who conducts<BR>operations in air commerce carrying persons or property for compensation<BR>or hire. These operators are issued an Operating Certificate.<BR>1. Airplanes with a passenger seating capacity of 20 or more or a<BR>maximum payload of more than 6,000 pounds conduct operations under<BR>Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 125.<BR>2. Airplanes, with a passenger seating capacity of less than 20 and<BR>a payload of less than 6,000 pounds, and rotorcraft conduct<BR>operations under FAR Part 135.<BR>3. Scheduled intrastate common carriage of aircraft with a<BR>passenger seating capacity of 30 or less and a payload of 7,500<BR>pounds or less, conduct operations under FAR Part 135. Aircraft<BR>with a passenger seating capacity of more than 30 and a payload of<BR>more than 7,500 pounds conduct operations under FAR Part 121.<BR>Commuter Air Carrier - an operator who, under FAR Part 135, conducts<BR>scheduled passenger carrying operations with a frequency of at least<BR>five round trips per week on at least one route between two or more<BR>points according to a published schedule, utilizing aircraft with a<BR>passenger seating capacity of 30 or less and a maximum payload of 7,500<BR>pounds.<BR>Domestic Air Carrier - an operator who, under FAR Part 121, conducts<BR>scheduled operations within the 48 contiguous states and the District of<BR>Columbia, utilizing aircraft with a passenger seating capacity of more<BR>than 30 or a payload of more than 7,500 pounds.<BR>Flag Air Carrier - an operator who conducts scheduled operations under<BR>FAR Part 121 to any point outside the 48 contiguous states and the<BR>District of Columbia, utilizing aircraft with a passenger seating<BR>capacity of more than 30 or a payload of more than 7,500 pounds.<BR>Supplemental/Scheduled Cargo Air Carrier - an operator performing nonscheduled<BR>passenger (charter) operations and scheduled or non-scheduled<BR>all-cargo operations under FAR Part 121, utilizing aircraft with a<BR>passenger seating capacity of more than 30 or a payload of more than<BR>7,500 pounds.<BR>Codes are listed below for each authorized type of operation.<BR>DFG Domestic and Flag (Passenger/Cargo)<BR>DOM Domestic (Passenger/Cargo)<BR>SCO Supplemental (Cargo Only)<BR>SUP Supplemental (Passenger/Cargo)<BR>CMA Commuter (Passenger/Cargo)<BR>ODA On-Demand Fixed Wing (Passenger/Cargo)<BR>ODCF On-Demand Fixed Wing (Cargo Only)<BR>CMR Commuter Rotorcraft (Passenger/Cargo)<BR>ODR On-Demand Rotorcraft (Passenger/Cargo)<BR>ODCR On-Demand Rotorcraft (Cargo Only)<BR>DATA INFORMATION<BR>The class of aircraft is shown in the upper left corner of the report<BR>pages. The class of aircraft is the method of propulsion, i.e., turbine<BR>(turbojet and turbofan), turboprop, reciprocating (air transport and<BR>normal/utility), and helicopter turboshaft.<BR>Aircraft and Engine Manufacturer and Model<BR>Information is presented alphabetically by aircraft manufacturer code.<BR>The aircraft models, and engine manufacturer and models are grouped<BR>within each aircraft manufacturer category.<BR>Air Carrier Designator<BR>This column lists the unique designator code of the operator. A listing<BR>of designators with the names of operators is also provided.<BR>Number of Aircraft<BR>This is obtained from the reporting document, AC Form 8320-1, Air<BR>Carrier Aircraft/Engine Utilization Report.<BR>Fleet Aircraft Time<BR>This is the total number of hours flown for the reporting month. This<BR>information is also obtained from AC Form 8320-1.<BR>Daily Utilization Hours<BR>The daily utilization hours represents the average daily flight time and<BR>is calculated as the fleet aircraft time divided by the number of days<BR>in the reporting month and rounded to the nearest hour.<BR>Fleet Engine Hours<BR>This is the total engine hours for the reporting month and is obtained<BR>from AC Form 8320-1.<BR>Engine TBO and Hot Section Inspection Period<BR>The engine Time Between Overhaul (TBO) and Hot Section Inspection (HSI)<BR>periods may be entered as hours, cycles, or as one of the following<BR>programs.<BR>1. Condition Monitoring (CON MON) - a maintenance process for items<BR>that have neither "hard time" nor "on condition" maintenance as<BR>their primary maintenance process. CON MON is accomplished by<BR>appropriate means available to an operator for finding and solving<BR>problem areas.<BR>2. Engine Heavy Maintenance (EHM) - normally includes HSI plus<BR>other engine specified areas.<BR>3. Hard Time - a preventive primary maintenance process. It<BR>requires that an appliance or part be periodically overhauled in<BR>accordance with the air carrier's maintenance manual or be removed<BR>from service.<BR>4. Logical Information Based on Reliability (LIBRA) - a total<BR>maintenance program based on daily analysis of fleet operation.<BR>5. On Condition (OC) - a preventive primary maintenance process. It<BR>requires that an appliance or part be periodically inspected or<BR>checked against some appropriate physical standard to determine<BR>whether it can continue in service.<BR>6. Performance Monitoring (PER MON) - a systematic collection of<BR>data used to determine deterioration of an appliance, system, or<BR>part of an aircraft to a point where corrective action is required<BR>to prevent an impending failure.<BR>7. Reliability Program (REL PRO) - a supplement of an air carrier's<BR>total maintenance program which essentially is a set of rules and<BR>principles for managing maintenance processes.<BR>Engine Shutdowns and Removals<BR>Rate per 1000 hours data is calculated as the number of shutdowns<BR>divided by the number of engine fleet hours, and the number of engine<BR>removals divided by the number of engine fleet hours.<BR>Three Month Acft/Eng Data<BR>This is calculated by using the current month's figures plus the<BR>previous two months' totals.<BR>ABBREVIATIONS<BR>Airframe Manufacturers<BR>A Airbus Industrie<BR>AE Aerospatiale<BR>AS Aerostar Aircraft Corp. of Texas<BR>B Boeing Airplane Company<BR>BA British Aerospace<BR>BE Beech Aircraft Corporation<BR>BN Britten Norman Ltd.<BR>C Cessna Aircraft Corporation<BR>CA Construcciones Aeronauticas, S.A.
