Airline Pilots Must Get Real For In-Flight Cyber Attack
The flight will be connected thru IP throughout entire time depicted in green-yellowish area.
O voo estará conectado através do Internet Protocol - IP durante todo o tempo, retratado na área verde-amarelado.
According to FAA, the shift to NextGen
technologies will require FAA to replace its proprietary, relatively isolated
ATC computer systems with information systems that interoperate and share
data throughout FAA’s operations and those of its aviation partners. These
combined aviation operations are known as the enterprise. These new
systems will use IP-networking technologies to communicate across the
enterprise. This transformation involves acquiring, certifying, and operating
a vast network of navigation, communications, and surveillance systems,
including information systems in the cockpits of thousands of aircraft
(avionics); it will also employ digital and Internet-based
computer-networking technologies, exposing the air-traffic control (ATC)
system to new cybersecurity risks.
|
De acordo com a FAA, a mudança para tecnologias NextGen exigirá da FAA
substituir seus sistemas proprietários relativamente isolados de computadores
de Controle de Tráfego Aéreo (ATC) com sistemas de informação que interoperam
e compartilharem dados durante operações da FAA e dos seus parceiros de
aviação. Estas operações combinadas de aviação são conhecidas como The
Enterprise. Estes novos sistemas usarão tecnologias de redes IP [Internet
Protocol] para se comunicar com todo o sistema. Esta transformação envolve
aquisição, certificação e operação de uma vasta rede de navegação,
comunicações e sistemas de vigilância, incluindo sistemas de informação nos
cockpits de milhares de aeronave (aviônica); Ele também empregará tecnologias
digitais de redes de computadores baseadas na Internet, expondo o sistema de
Controle (ATC) de Tráfego Aéreo para novos riscos de segurança cibernética.
|
Modern communications technologies, including IP
connectivity, are increasingly used in aircraft systems, creating the
possibility that unauthorized individuals might access and compromise
aircraft avionics systems. Aircraft information systems consist of avionics
systems used for flight and in-flight entertainment.
|
Tecnologias de comunicação moderna, incluindo conectividade IP, são cada
vez mais utilizadas em sistemas de aeronaves, criando a possibilidade de que
os indivíduos não autorizados possam acessar e comprometer os sistemas de aviônicos
de aeronaves. Sistemas de informação da aeronave consistem em sistemas de aviônicos
usados para voo e entretenimento a bordo.
|
Historically, aircraft in flight and their
avionics systems used for flight guidance and control functioned as isolated
and self-contained units, which protected their avionics systems from remote
attack. However, according to FAA, IP networking may allow an attacker to
gain remote access to avionics systems and compromise them.
|
Historicamente, a aeronave em voo e seus sistemas de aviônicos
utilizados para controle e orientação de voo funcionavam como unidades
isoladas e autossuficientes, que protegiam seus sistemas aviônicos de ataque
remoto. No entanto, de acordo com a FAA, redes IP podem permitir que um
invasor obtenha acesso remoto aos sistemas aviônicos e comprometê-los.
|
Firewalls protect avionics systems located in the
cockpit from intrusion by cabin-system users, such as passengers who use
in-flight entertainment services onboard. Firewalls are software components;
they could be hacked like any other software and circumvented. The experts
said that if the cabin systems connect to the cockpit avionics systems (e.g.,
share the same physical wiring harness or router) and use the same networking
platform, in this case IP, a user could subvert the firewall and access the
cockpit avionics system from the cabin.
|
Firewalls protegem os sistemas aviônicos,
localizados no cockpit, de intrusão por usuários do sistema da cabine, como
os passageiros que utilizam serviços de entretenimento a bordo. Firewalls
são componentes de software e eles poderiam ser copiados como qualquer
outro software e contornados. Se os sistemas da cabine de passageiros se
conectam aos sistemas de aviônica do cockpit (por exemplo, compartilham a
mesma fiação física ou roteador) e usarem a mesma plataforma de rede, neste
caso IP, um usuário poderia subverter o firewall
e acessar o sistema de aviônica a partir da cabine de passageiros.
|
One cybersecurity expert noted that a virus or
malware planted in websites visited by passengers could provide an
opportunity for a malicious attacker to access the IP-connected onboard
information system through their infected machines.
|
Um especialista em segurança cibernética observou que um vírus ou
malware plantadas em sites visitados pelos passageiros poderia fornecer uma
oportunidade para um atacante malicioso acessar o sistema de informação
integrado de IP conectado através de suas máquinas infectadas.
|
The presence of personal smart phones and tablets
in the cockpit increases the risk of a system’s being compromised by trusted insiders,
both malicious and non-malicious, if these devices have the capability to
transmit information to aircraft avionics systems.
|
A presença de smartphones e tablets no cockpit [alguns
pilotos de empresas aéreas usam seus tablets pessoais no cockpit] aumenta o
risco de um sistema estar sendo comprometido por pessoas de dentro
confiáveis, ambas as mal-intencionadas e não maliciosas, se esses
dispositivos tiverem a capacidade de transmitir informações para os sistemas
de aviônicos de aeronaves.
|
FAA issued Special Conditions to address the
increased connectivity among aircraft cockpit and cabin systems for the
Boeing 787 and Airbus A350 to provide systems cybersecurity and computer
network protection from unauthorized external and internal access.
|
A FAA emitiu condições especiais para atender a crescente
conectividade entre sistemas do cockpit e cabine de passageiros das aeronaves
Boeing 787 e Airbus A350 para fornecerem proteção de sistemas de segurança
cibernética e de rede de computador aos acessos não autorizados internos e
externos.

Germanwings U4 9525 - Fourth VHF Radio Must Be Installed Outside Flight Deck for Emergency Communications by Flight Attendants
Chegou a hora
das empresas de linhas aéreas instalarem outro rádio VHF (do mesmo que existe
no cockpit) no painel de comunicação das Aeromoças (Comissárias de Voo).
Está se tornando
notícia rotineira um dos pilotos ficar do lado de fora do 'flight deck'
porque o outro piloto dentro do cockpit trancou a porta propositalmente e levou
o avião para destruição
e morte de todos os passageiros e demais tripulantes.
Eu sugiro que um
quarto rádio VHF seja instalado obrigatoriamente do lado de fora do 'flight
deck', assim o piloto que não conseguir retornar para o seu cockpit chamará o Controlador de
Tráfego Aéreo e anunciará a INTERFERÊNCIA ILICITA.
Esse quarto
rádio VHF também servirá para as aeromoças chamarem o ATC no caso de nenhum dos
pilotos dentro do flight deck não responder as chamadas delas através do
intercomunicador localizado no painel de comunicação para elas, o qual já
existe na cabine de passageiros.
Esse quarto
rádio VHF deve ser independente dos outros três VHF existentes no
flight deck, assim o piloto trancado dentro do cockpit não poderá desligá-lo.
The time has come for the
airline companies to install another VHF radio (as the same that exists in the
cockpit) in the Stewardesses (Flight Attendants) communication panel outside
flight deck. It's becoming routine news one of the pilots stay on the outside
of the ' flight deck ' because the other pilot in the cockpit deliberately
locked the door and took the plane to destruction and murder of all passengers
and other crew members.
I suggest a fourth VHF
radio must be installed outside of the ' flight deck ', so the pilots who cannot
return to their cockpit will call the Area Air Traffic Control and announce
ILICIT interference.
This fourth VHF radio
communication outside flight deck will also serve for Flight Attendants to call
the ATC in case none of the pilots in the flight deck do not respond calls to them
through the intercom communication Panel, which already exists in passengers
cabin. This fourth VHF radio must be independent of the other three existing
VHF radios on the flight deck, so the pilot locked inside the cockpit can't
turn it off.
From now on, ATC takes over like that:
From now on, ATC takes over like that:

- Engine relighting in flight is only guaranteed within the envelope
and always necessitates starter assistance- The power may be restored immediately after relighting providing TOIL > O°C.
- Should the engine fail to light up within 10 seconds, select fuel to shut off, the ignition OFF and allow engine to be ventilated for 30 seconds minimum prior to making another attempt.
ENGINE FLAME OUT
Comments
- Shut down the engine is no immediate relight- The causes of engine flame out can generally be divided into two categories:
- External causes such as icing, very heavy turbulence, fuel mismanagement.
Theses causes, which may affect both engines can generally be easy determined and an immediate relight can be attempt.
- Internal causes which as engine stall or fails usually affect a single engine and are not so easily determined, In these cases, the engine is shut down then the cause of the flame out investigated. If it cannot be positively determined what caused the flame out, the need for engine restart should be evaluated against the risk of further engine damage or fire may result from aa restart attempt.
- If damage is suspected, as precautionary measure, the FIRE handle is pulled.

AirAsia QZ8501 - Unbelievably Steep Climb
At 6:17 a.m. on Dec. 28, three minutes after air traffic control unsuccessfully tried to make contact and asked nearby aircraft to try to locate QZ8501, the A320 turned to the left and it began to climb from its altitude of 32,000 ft (9,750 metres), Jonan told a parliamentary hearing.
The rate of the climb increased rapidly within seconds to 6,000 ft a minute, before accelerating further to 8,400 ft a minute and finally 11,100 ft. The aircraft reached 37,600 ft just 54 seconds after it began to climb before it appeared to stall.
The aircraft began to fall at 6:18 a.m., dropping 1,500 ft in the first 6 seconds before reaching a rate of descent of 7,900 ft per minute until it reached 24,000 ft, at which point it disappeared from the radar.
UPDATED FEB 04, 2015
Georgia State University
http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/orbv.htmlThe acceleration was 9,53 m/s2
At flight level of 32,000 feet the acceleration of gravity is
9.77 m/s2
Human bodies exposed to such acceleration will immediately have
the blood flowing totally to feet. Therefore, both pilots (airline pilots rarely
have put their oxygen masks on above 25000 feet) will have dead faint, and passengers
as well. Unless, passenger oxygen
masks are deployed.
A aceleração foi de 9,53 m/s2
No nível de voo de 32000 pés a aceleração da gravidade é de 9,77 m/s2
O corpo humano exposto a tal aceleração de 9,53 m/s2 terá imediatamente o sangue fluindo totalmente para os pés, e por essa razão, ambos os pilotos (pilotos de linha aérea raramente colocam suas máscaras de oxigênio em altitudes acima de 25000 pés) terá desmaio profundo, e passageiros também. A menos, que as máscaras de oxigênio de passageiro sejam dispostas.
Subida Inacreditavelmente Íngreme.
