This document provides guidance on responding to a stall warning activation during takeoff. It discusses factors that can lead to stall warnings at takeoff like weather, human factors, and aircraft systems issues. It recommends techniques for recovery depending on altitude, including maintaining an optimum 12.5 degree pitch attitude at liftoff to avoid ground contact. Prevention strategies are also covered, like ensuring a clean aircraft, being aware of windshear, and carefully planning takeoff performance. Briefings should emphasize these points to prepare flight crews to respond appropriately if a stall warning occurs.

This document discusses takeoff and departure operations, focusing on the "stop or go" decision during takeoff roll. It provides background on statistical data showing a decrease in rejected takeoff incidents from the 1960s to 1990s. It then covers operational standards for the decision, with the captain deciding whether to stop below 100 knots and only stopping above 100 knots for severe issues. Factors that influence the decision are discussed, as well as prevention strategies like briefings and callouts to aid the decision-making process. The goal is to help flight crews make well-informed, timely decisions for safe takeoff operations.
This document discusses human performance issues in aircraft maintenance. It provides an overview of human factors that can influence task performance and safety in the maintenance environment. The document includes case studies of reported maintenance events to highlight why errors occurred and how to prevent recurrences. One case study describes an event where emergency door actuators failed to operate during testing due to the percussion mechanisms not being correctly positioned and locked during maintenance. The key recommendations are to follow maintenance manual procedures closely, including illustrations, to properly reassemble components.

1. The document discusses techniques for safely operating aircraft in different environments and conditions, focusing on proper use of altimeters and altitude callouts.
2. Setting the altimeter correctly is critical, as errors can lead to altitude deviations that increase safety risks. Different units of measurement, atmospheric conditions, and transition levels must be carefully managed.
3. Radio altimeter callouts should follow standard procedures tailored to the approach and terrain to enhance crew awareness of altitude above ground level. Low outside air temperatures require altitude corrections to account for differences between true and indicated altitude.

This document provides guidance on the optimum use of automation in aircraft. It discusses three generations of automated flight systems and their levels of integration. Higher levels of automation provide more options for pilots but also require understanding integration of autopilot, autothrottle and flight management systems. The document emphasizes that pilots must actively monitor automation, understand how it works and be prepared to intervene manually if needed to maintain safety. It provides best practices such as using the appropriate level of automation for each flight phase and verifying that the aircraft is following intended guidance.
This document discusses standard calls used in flight operations to enhance crew communication and situational awareness. It defines standard calls as brief, unambiguous phrases used during critical phases of flight to convey aircraft status and commands between pilots. Standard calls are important for crew coordination, especially with two-pilot crews and mixed language crews. The document provides guidelines for developing and using standard calls, and lists examples of calls for typical flight events and phases.

This document discusses standard operating procedures (SOPs) and their importance for flight safety. Some key points:
- Strict adherence to SOPs helps prevent crew errors, anticipate threats, and enhance safety. Proper CRM is not possible without following SOPs.
- Statistical data shows the leading causes of approach-and-landing accidents are related to not following SOPs, including omissions of actions, non-adherence to stabilized approach criteria, and inadequate crew coordination.
- Airbus SOPs are designed to reflect the aircraft design and operating philosophies, and promote optimal use of features. Operators can adopt or customize SOPs, with potential deviations requiring approval.
Basque settlement increased in the western states of the US decades ago, particularly in California, Idaho, and Nevada. Alongside this migration phenomenon, Basque Studies programs have been emerging at the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR), Boise State University (BSU), and California State University, Bakersfield (CSUB), particularly in the humanities, including history, anthropology, linguistics, and literature. The impact of the pandemic in Basque e-Diasporic communities in California, Idaho, and Nevada, and, consequently, the deep digitalization process being undertaken at the abovementioned universities, has resulted in an increasing demand for an articulated strategy in community engagement through action research. To respond to this timely challenge, the article suggests a need for a transition towards a Social Science transdisciplinary roadmap to support Basque e-diasporic communities. Basque Studies programs have the potential to act as a transformational policy driver through their virtual connections with the Basque Country and key homeland institutions. This article explores this necessary transition through action research by acknowledging the potential for the three abovementioned US states and the Basque Country to set up a transformational e-Diaspora.

Dr Calzada's Fulbright Scholar-In-Residence reception took place on 10th October 2022 at California State University, Bakersfield. This event contributed to launch the Institute for Basque Studies (IBS) through a renewed academic programme based on trans-disciplinarity, entrepreneurship, and digitalisation by connecting the Basque Country, Wales, and California. The Fulbright reception event presentation focused on opportunities both at the city-regional level for Central Valley as well as from e-diaspora perspective in relation to Boise and Reno's Basque Studies programme. It is up to the IBS now to implement core foundations stemming from Fulbright S-I-R's programme led by Dr Calzada as PI. An efficient coordination within the CSUB and strategic stakeholders under the supervision of the PI in Bakersfield and Kern County will be required to make this Fulbright S-I-R's foundational statement feasible and doable, which should actively endure over time. The 5th December 2022, alongside the IBS-Etxepare agreement signature, a workshop will be held by the IBS to wrap up and put into practice Fulbright SIR-IBS programme's foundational formulation from January 2023 onwards being that co-led by the PI and IBS.

Smart City Citizenship provides rigorous analysis for academics and policymakers on the participatory processes and practices of smart cities to help integrate ICT-related innovation into urban life. Unlike other smart city books that are often edited collections, this book focuses on the business domain and the technological disruptions themselves, also examining the role of citizens and the democratic governance issues raised from an interdisciplinary perspective. As smart city research is a fast-growing topic of scientific inquiry and evolving rapidly, this book is an ideal reference for a much needed discussion.

Abstract:
In light of the recent ‘tourism-phobia’, there is a need to better understand how tourism could be transformed through new business and social models. Attempts have been made, for example, to identify which experimental tourism models would align with the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Nonetheless, research remains scant and the policy paradigm slightly out of date. With the pervasive proliferation of tourism services provided by big tech multinationals such as AirBnB and Uber and the rapid algorithmic disruption of the so-called “sharing economy” paradigm, several European cities and regions are seeking to mitigate the negative side-effects caused by “platform capitalism” in their neighborhoods and local communities. These side-effects include gentrification, privatization of public space, inherent conflicts between visitors/tourists and residents/locals, environmental damage, and precarious working conditions, among others. Thus, this paper explores why tourism in Europe requires new business and social models to neutralise this algorithmic disruption and modify the extractivist neoliberal logic in tourism to develop new, transformative, techno-political, bottom-up, and networked strategies stemming from the city-regional realm. Against the backdrop of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the EU that has recently taken effect on 25 May 2018, this paper argues that a new, transformative, tourism paradigm could emerge from the European political left. The push of the city-regional resurgence beyond established nation-states could enable grassroots and institutional tourism initiatives to take the lead and coordinate a political response to achieve further sustainable, equitable, and, ultimately, democratic technological sovereignty in diverse localities through Europe. In conclusion, this paper posits city-regional, bottom-up, and networked dynamics characterised by the GDPR as an opportunity to establish a new techno-political paradigm in tourism by overcoming data and algorithmic extractivist practices.

ABSTRACT: This article draws on the thorny topic of the Social Innovation (SI). Particularly, it revolves around the role of those social movements promoting the Basque language not only in relation to their organisational models but also to their holistic strategy to tackle inevitably digital, urban, and political challenges surfaced by the disruptions stemming from the post-COVID society.

Over the last decades, globalisation has led to a new class of global citizens. While the access to this global citizenship is still not spread evenly, many have enjoyed the freedom to move, work, and travel with no limits. However, this cosmopolitan globalisation rhetoric of a borderless world has been drastically slowed down by Covid-19. This pandemic has introduced a new level of uncertainty in global affairs and led many to question whether citizens will be able to continue enjoying the freedom of movement once the crisis is over.

AI is now an important component of sectors such as healthcare, agriculture, public administration and transportation, and is helping to address major challenges such as ageing and climate change. However, there is currently a lack of transparency in algorithmic governance systems, and this is worsened when these algorithms are integrated into already opaque governance structures in our cities. Moreover, over the past decade, the propagation of sensors and data collection machines in so-called ‘smart cities’ by both the public and the private sectors has created democratic challenges around AI, surveillance capitalism, and protecting citizens’ digital rights to privacy and ownership.
This is a policy report elaborated by the Basque Studies' Society to collect a wide range of opinions on the prospective nature of the Basque territory. Dr Calzada has contributed to the report in a 'Collective Authorship' fashion.

AI is now an important component of sectors such as healthcare, agriculture, public administration and transportation, and is helping to address major challenges such as ageing and climate change. However, there is currently a lack of transparency in algorithmic governance systems, and this is worsened when these algorithms are integrated into already opaque governance structures in our cities. Moreover, over the past decade, the propagation of sensors and data collection machines in so-called ‘smart cities’ by both the public and the private sectors has created democratic challenges around AI, surveillance capitalism, and protecting citizens’ digital rights to privacy and ownership.

Territories is a new and innovative international journal that covers the evolution of theories, notions and concepts, facts and interpretations of empirical analysis related to the field of regional studies. The journal aims to publish original research from an interdisciplinary angle, which deals with the economic, socio-political, environmental and philosophical dimensions of urban and non-urban (post-national) regions. The specific goal of Territories stands on the study, debate and intellectual argument on how the global scenario provokes a new understanding, recognition and evolution of regional realities around the world, which go beyond the national concept. This journal will publish papers that engage with the economic and political conditions that have a founded impact towards regional realities, and vice versa. It is important to note that
this reverse angle is crucial to understand the global scene today. Territories represents a new agora where to bring critical perspectives that may help to understand and change the current hegemonic conditions.
