Kayaking is on the rise Andre Silva Jersey , as it offers the best in outdoor activities full of thrills and spills. Chasing the spray meets much of today's need for exciting sports, but being responsible and knowing basic safety rules about kayaking can make the difference between a great trip and one where someone lands in an emergency situation.
Before heading to the waters for an adrenaline rush, know what you are doing. No one should practice whitewater kayaking without having learned how to actually steer your craft and get out of a tight spot or a dangerous situation. Kayaking clubs have experienced instructors that will teach you how to steer and manipulate your kayak through rapids. Never try this sport without basic training.
Always wear a helmet. The large stones in rapids are very dangerous and there is a risk of hitting your head on one if you tip over. A helmet is standard equipment for river kayaking, so always make sure you have one before hitting the rapids. Be sure that the helmet you have is one that is approved for the sport and that the adjustments have been made so that it fits correctly. Your helmet should be securely fastened. If you ever drop your helmet or have an accident and the helmet takes a knock Alessio Romagnoli Jersey , don't use it again. Discard your helmet in favor of a new one, as helmets are designed to take one blow.
Your next piece of standard gear is a personal flotation device. Lifejackets are designed to keep your head above water should you fall from your kayak. Never trust your ability to swim or have too much confidence that you won't suffer an emergency situation. Accidents happen to even professional kayakers. Wearing your lifejacket when you are kayaking can mean the difference between life and death.
Being overconfident and taking on white water that is above your skill level is very dangerous. Work up to higher river classifications slowly and make sure that your ability matches the hazards of the rapids. This type of responsibility goes hand in hand with checking the classification of the river before you head out on a kayaking trip. Even if others are able to handle certain sections of the rapids, know your own limits and portage around more difficult areas.
Wear the right clothing for the activity. Synthetic fabrics offer lightweight portability and a good amount of warmth. A wet suit can be an option if the water is cold. The risk of hypothermia isn't worth dressing inappropriately. You can also bring extra clothing and stow it inside your kayak, but make sure any gear carried in your watercraft is tied securely.
Always enjoy your kayaking vacation with more than one person. River kayaking is a dangerous activity and it's always best to enjoy the water with a group of people. If anything happens Alessandro Plizzari Jersey , you'll have help available immediately. When kayaking in a group, respect everyone's position and never pass the leader or fall behind the sweep. Safety depends on each of the group's actions and being responsible is the secret to a great vacation.
The upcoming Part 36 noise restrictions placed on all Stage 2 aircraft by the FAA and EASA due to take effect on Jan 1st, 2016, will render all G11 and G111 aircraft un-flyable in the US Alessandro Guarnone Jersey , Canada, and most of the countries in Europe. This is a sad state of affairs, especially as these aircraft have been flying under the 75,000 LB GTW exemption for years. Coupled with this announcement Cheap AC Milan Jerseys , the operators of these aircraft saw an immediate drop in the value of their aircraft.
The options available to make these aircraft Stage 3 compliant are offered by two noise suppression companies, Quiet Technology Aerospace in Opa-Locka, Florida, and Hubbard Aviation Technologies in St Paul Suso Jersey , Minnesota. The Quiet Technology system is called the QTA and the Hubbard Aviation Technologies system is called the QS3. The question for those operators wishing to keep their aircraft is which one of these hush-kits do I buy? Hopefully this article can aid in that decision making progress. Jet Consultations is available for further guidance on this topic, and may be contacted at info@Jetconsultations
Quiet Technology was able to get the QTA to the market place first and have had success selling over seventy five kits. Unfortunately, Hubbard Technologies was late in comparison and did not get final authority for their Supplemental Type Certification till late November 2008. The current economic recession has impacted their ability to make sales. Hopefully for both companies, the FAA announcement in February 2012 has already prompted operators to start evaluating the two systems. As the deadline approaches Riccardo Montolivo Jersey , more customers should materialize for both companies and there should be plenty of available business. The key for logistical planning is to schedule the installation sooner rather than later. Operators should look at this as an opportunity to enhance the resale value of their aircraft.
The three areas the FAA uses to evaluate Part 36 noise are approach, sideline, and flyover. The Hubbard QS3 is well designed. It is more than 30% quieter on the exterior than the QTA. It is also significantly quieter in the cabin during cruise flight and 70% quieter during landing when the reversers are deployed. The Rolls Royce Spey engine, which both the G111 and G11 utilize Ricardo Rodriguez Jersey , was originally designed for the BAC 1-11 using cascade style thrust reversers. Hubbard has incorporated that design into the QS3 system. This allows for less engine power to accomplish the same reverse stopping force as the QTA. The added benefit of this design is that there is less wear and tear on the engine and structural vibration on the empennage.
During translation to reverse thrust, the QTA ejector slides down a carriageway to allow the clamshell doors to deploy, and is not aesthetically pleasing to see. This movement does require periodic inspections of the carr. |
