Teeth whitening
Tooth discoloration is a common cosmetic issue that can be addressed through teeth whitening. Teeth whitening, also known as tooth bleaching, is a dental procedure that uses bleaching agents like hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide to lighten the natural color of teeth that have become darker or discolored over time due to factors like coffee, tea, tobacco, berries or curries. The teeth whitening procedure typically takes about an hour and uses a laser or light to activate the bleaching agents, resulting in teeth that are 5-6 shades lighter providing an instant brightening effect. With proper oral hygiene and avoiding staining foods and drinks, teeth whitening results can last up to 3 years.

The pilots encountered heavy icing conditions while flying a Baron aircraft that was not certified for known icing. As ice accumulated, the aircraft lost altitude and performance. During an instrument approach in icy conditions with zero visibility, the aircraft stalled and crashed in a cornfield shortly before reaching the runway. The pilot in command was killed on impact while the other pilot survived but suffered severe burns over 65% of his body. After a long recovery process, the surviving pilot was eventually able to return to aviation by taking a job in aircraft parts at an FBO, rekindling his passion for flying.

This document discusses several aviation accidents and safety standards. It begins by describing the Turkish Airlines Flight 981 crash in 1974, which was caused by an improperly latched cargo door bursting open. It then discusses aviation accident definitions and investigations established by the Convention on International Civil Aviation. Finally, it discusses modern aviation safety improvements like evacuation slides and enhanced avionics, and notes that on a per-distance basis air travel is statistically the safest mode of transportation.
Top 10 ways your pilot might kill you
This document provides a summary of 10 ways pilots could potentially kill passengers by making mistakes. They include not de-icing wings before takeoff, forgetting to deploy necessary equipment for takeoff like flaps and slats, crashing into another plane due to failures of air traffic control systems, getting distracted from flying duties like checking a light bulb, and blowing various stages of the landing process by descending below safe minimums or ignoring critical warnings. The examples illustrate how even experienced pilots are capable of errors with catastrophic outcomes and underscore the importance of safety procedures and oversight.

Though showered with world-wide praise and treated to a hero's hometown welcome,
Capt. Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger offered a businesslike account of the swift and
dazzling actions that saved the 155 people aboard US Airways Flight 1549. "I know I
can speak for the entire crew when I tell you we were simply doing the job we were
trained to do," he said Saturday in Danville, Calif. Indeed, it wasn't the first time the US
Airways pilots had confronted double-engine failure or prepared for a ditching. Nor was
it the first time that flight attendants had thrown open emergency doors, inflated rafts
and herded passengers out of an Airbus cabin in seconds. But it was the first time they
had done all that when actual lives were at stake. Their previous experiences were all
part of the rigorous training pilots and flight attendants undergo.
In emergencies, airplane crews typically revert to their training, aviation experts say,
and a close look at the training at US Airways Group Inc. and other airlines shows how
well-prepared the experienced crew of Flight 1549 was for their crash into the Hudson
River on January 15.
Air-crew training has grown far more sophisticated. At US Airways, annual training for
flight attendants has shifted in recent years from classroom teaching to more hands-on
practice evacuations in full-size Airbus cabin simulators because research has shown
the importance of practice drills. "Now over 80% of the day is in simulators evacuating
aircraft, with very little time spent in the classroom," says Bob Hemphill, the airline's
director of in-flight training.
US Airways gives newly hired flight attendants five weeks of training, from an
introduction to the aviation industry to procedures for opening each type of door on each
type of aircraft they'll fly. The airline has a full-size Airbus cabin simulator in both its
Phoenix and Charlotte training facilities, plus "door trainers" for its Boeing airplanes, so
flight attendants can practice opening emergency exits under tough conditions (total
darkness, billowing smoke) and evacuating cabins. In both cities, initial training includes
jumping into a pool and practicing opening a life raft, helping people in and out of the
raft, putting up the canopy and using the raft's sea anchor and medical kit.
After the initial training, federal law requires annual classroom safety training for flight
attendants and hands-on performance drills every 24 months. Three days before the
crash of Flight 1549, the FAA proposed increasing that requirement to hands-on drills
every 12 months. US Airways has flight attendants undergo two days of recurrent
training every year -- one day of home study and one day at the training center to
practice emergency procedures and measure proficiency. That includes opening doors
after first checking for .

US Airways Flight 1549 (Sully) A-3.docx
1) On January 15, 2009, US Airways Flight 1549 struck a flock of birds shortly after takeoff from LaGuardia Airport, damaging both engines. Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger was forced to land the Airbus A320 in the Hudson River, saving all 155 lives onboard.
2) An investigation by the NTSB initially suggested pilot error, as simulations showed the plane may have been able to land at nearby airports. However, when simulations included human factors like stress and decision time, they ended in crashes.
3) Further analysis confirmed the bird strike severely damaged the engines, validating Sullenberger's emergency water landing and cementing his status as a hero.

The document summarizes the events of US Airways Flight 1549, which made an emergency landing on the Hudson River in New York City on January 15, 2009 after striking a flock of birds during takeoff, losing power in both engines. It describes how the pilots, Captain Chesley Sullenberger and First Officer Jeffrey Skiles, immediately took control of the plane and declared an emergency once the birds were struck. Despite efforts to restart the engines, the plane had become a glider that the pilots had to land within 3 minutes. The document outlines the pilots' decision to land in the Hudson River rather than attempting to reach airports due to safety concerns over populated areas.
Aircraft Accident Investigation on American Airline 587 crash
American Airlines Flight 587 crashed shortly after takeoff from John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City on November 12, 2001, killing all 260 people aboard and 5 people on the ground. The National Transportation Safety Board determined the cause was the first officer's overuse of the rudder controls in an attempt to counter wake turbulence from a Japan Airlines 747 that had taken off minutes earlier from the same runway. This caused excessive stress that led to the separation of the vertical stabilizer, causing the plane to lose control and crash. The crash reignited a dispute between American Airlines and Airbus regarding responsibility, as the A300 rudder controls were more sensitive than other aircraft. The investigation report ultimately found the crash was due to human
Are Private Jets Safe?
This document discusses the safety of private jets. It notes that while private jets can access more airports than commercial airlines, they have also seen more fatal crashes since 2000, often due to human error. One example described is a 2013 crash caused by pilots who were overworked and failed to properly land the plane. The document argues that private jet safety depends highly on the operator's standards for pilot training and pay, maintenance practices, and overall safety culture. Operators cutting costs on these areas can compromise safety.
Aircraft Hijacked
Turkish Airlines Flight 1754 was hijacked in January 2011 by a passenger suffering from mental illness. The man claimed to have a bomb and demanded the plane return to Norway, but two passengers were able to subdue him. The plane safely landed in Istanbul as scheduled. The hijacker, Cuma Yasar, was mentally ill and used a fake bomb made from a transistor radio to hijack the flight from Oslo to Istanbul. Airport operations in Istanbul were not disrupted.
Helios 522 Hand Out
The Helios Airways Flight 522 crashed in Greece, killing all 121 people on board, due to loss of cabin pressurization caused by a pressurization control valve being left in the "Manual" position after maintenance. As the plane ascended, the cabin failed to pressurize, knocking out the pilots and crew from hypoxia. A flight attendant attempted to regain control but crashed as the plane lost power from lack of fuel. The crash was the result of a maintenance error and crew's failure to recognize the pressurization problem.
United Flight 93
The document provides details about United Flight 93 which was hijacked as part of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. It describes the hijackers, timeline of events including passenger phone calls revealing the hijacking, and passenger revolt that ultimately caused the plane to crash in a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, killing all 40 passengers and crew. It also outlines the design of the Flight 93 National Memorial built at the crash site to honor those who died.
Flash airlines flight 604
Flight 604 from Flash Airlines crashed into the Red Sea shortly after takeoff from Sharm El Sheikh International Airport, killing all 154 people on board. The Egyptian investigation found technical failures led to pilot disorientation, while the NTSB concluded no airplane failures occurred and the crash was due to the captain's spatial disorientation and the first officer's failure to take control. Investigators from different countries disagreed on the probable cause due to the complexity of the accident.
Brand failure- Pan American Airline
Pan American World Airways (Pan Am) was a major international airline from the 1920s to the 1990s that was renowned for innovations but suffered a fatal loss of public trust. At its peak in the 1960s-70s, Pan Am carried over 6 million passengers annually to many countries. However, a series of hijackings and bombings in the 1970s-80s eroded confidence. The 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103, which killed 270 people over Lockerbie, Scotland, destroyed the remaining trust in the airline's security. Despite Pan Am's efforts, people refused to fly with them and the company declared bankruptcy in 1991 after years of declining business following the Lockerbie disaster.
Another lost flight - The disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 remin...
The loss of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 is similar to the unsolved loss of Pan American World Airways Flight 7 while flying from San Francisco to Hawaii in 1957.
Presentation 9 11
On September 11, 2001, 19 al-Qaeda terrorists hijacked 4 commercial planes and crashed 2 planes into the World Trade Center towers in New York City, 1 plane into the Pentagon building near Washington D.C., and a 4th plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. Nearly 3,000 people were killed during the 9/11 terrorist attacks, which were orchestrated by Osama bin Laden and his terrorist organization al-Qaeda. The attacks triggered major U.S. initiatives to combat terrorism and defined the presidency of George W. Bush.
Bermuda Triangle3
The document discusses the Bermuda Triangle, a region of the Atlantic Ocean where a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. It notes that Vincent Gaddis coined the term "Bermuda Triangle" in 1965. The most famous disappearance was Flight 19, where five U.S. Navy bombers vanished on December 5, 1945 off the coast of Florida during a training mission. Various hypotheses have been proposed for the disappearances, including underwater methane eruptions interfering with plane navigation. The document reviews some of the more notable disappearances reported in the Bermuda Triangle area over the years.

Us Air Flight1549 Jan 09
- 1. US Airways Flight 1549 Airbus A320
- 2. Chesley B. Sullenberger III, the US Airways pilot who made an emergency landing in the Hudson, left. At right, he is seen during his days as an Air Force Academy cadet.
- 3. The Airbus A320 has a ditching button that closes all valves and openings underneath the aircraft to slow the rate of flooding
- 7. Some passengers screamed, others tucked their heads between their knees, and several prayed over and over, “Lord, forgive me for my sins.”
- 8. By landing successfully on water, the captain "achieved one of the rarest and most technically challenging feats in commercial aviation,“ A board member of the NTSB stated that it "has to go down as the most successful ditching in aviation history."
- 9. Flight Attendant Sheila Dail , age 57, joined US Airways (Piedmont Airlines) in 1980 and has more than 28 years experience with the airline. Flight Attendant Doreen Welsh , age 58, joined US Airways (Allegheny Airlines) in 1970 and has more than 38 years experience with the airline. Flight Attendant Donna Dent , age 51, joined US Airways (Piedmont Airlines) in 1982 and has more than 26 years experience with the airline. Captain Chesley B. Sullenberger, III , age 58, joined US Airways (PSA Airlines) in 1980. He has a total of 19,663 flight hours. First officer Jeffrey B. Skiles , age 49, joined US Airways (USAir) in 1986. He has a total of 15,643 flight hours.
- 11. A flight attendant broke a leg, but most people were unharmed except for suffering from the cold. Ferries rescued passengers from the wings, where they stood in 20 degree Fahrenheit weather, their feet dipping into water of 41 degrees F.
- 12. As the plane began sinking, Sullenberger walked the aisle twice to make sure no one was left behind, Bloomberg said.
- 14. There was the woman in a fur coat who asked a stranger to go back inside the sinking plane to fetch her purse.
- 15. Inside, as if heeding one collective thought, everyone moved to the rear of the cabin, only to find the exit doors there locked tight and water rising as the tail dipped below the surface. “ If that door opened, everything would go under,” said Brad Wentzell, 31, a patio-door salesman from Charlotte
- 16. "The bulk of this event was over in 10 minutes," said Raymond Kelly, New York police commissioner.
- 17. Three minutes after the first alert, police had commandeered a Circle Line boat that only minutes before was taking sightseers on a leisurely tour of New York's landmarks. The officers directed it toward the sinking plane.
- 18. "After the crash, the pilot was sitting in the ferry terminal, wearing his hat, sipping his coffee and acting like nothing happened," one police source told the New York Daily News.
- 19. The last person to leave the plane was Sullenberger. As he boarded a ferry he clutched a clipboard with the list of passengers.
- 20. Within five minutes of the call a police helicopter was also hovering above the scene. A detective, a trained diver, was lowered into the frigid water. He swam to a disoriented female passenger clinging to the side of a ferry and helped her to safety on another boat.
- 24. Aviation experts said they could not recall another successful controlled water landing by a commercial airliner in the U.S.
- 40. His gray hair was unruffled, and his blue pilot’s uniform had barely a wrinkle. “ His tie wasn’t even loosened,” said Ed Skyler, a deputy mayor of New York City
- 41. The pilot is a boon for an airline that has filed for bankruptcy twice in recent years and has been plagued by publicity nightmares. Two Christmases ago, US Airways lost 75,000 bags, some not found for months. Last year it became the first airline to charge for coffee, tea and bottled water.
