Flight operations
The flight operations is a generally accepted notion of aviation and called the operation or the operation of aircraft ( airplanes , helicopters , airships , etc.) in air carriers, airline associations and other companies that provide aircraft entertained, such as military, government agencies, NGOs , etc. Furthermore, the term describes the operation of aircraft from a wide variety of companies (operators) at an airport or airfield and colloquially an aviation company can also be meant (company / company / company in the aviation industry → flight operations).
Examples
- "The airline company XYZ ceased its flight operations from December 25, 2008 to December 6, 2009. " This means that there is no movement of the aircraft in the air by this company during this period. Maintenance work, movements on the ground, management and administration as well as customer services or transfer or test flights are not explicitly mentioned here, so they may not be affected. This information mostly relates to the transport of passengers by plane.
- "The LOWG airport has ceased its flight operations from 0 to 6 o'clock UTC ." This means that during the period in question, you can neither take off nor land from the airport. Ground movements in certain areas ( apron , shipyard, etc.) may or may not be permitted. Flight operations are usually also dependent on the operating times of an airport or airfield and are within these times.
- "The flight company XYZ-AIR of Mr. K. had to file for bankruptcy." A form that is not technically correct, but is often used colloquially to designate an aviation company, here XYZ-AIR.
