AI Thread Summary
The discussion highlights the impact of rising oil prices on the profitability of long haul versus short haul flights. Long haul aircraft typically incur costs from only one take-off and landing, making them more efficient under high fuel prices. In contrast, short haul flights involve multiple take-offs and landings, leading to higher operational costs and lower profit margins. Overall, the consensus suggests that long haul operations are generally more profitable for airlines, despite the challenges posed by fluctuating oil prices. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for airline profitability strategies.

when the oil price increase which will have high impact either long haul aircraft or short haul. I mean which kind of aircraft keeps the airliner profitable. Though the increase in oil price will have an impact on both kind of aircraft.

Basically, long haul aircraft have one take-off and landing, whereas the short haul will have more number of take-off's and landings. So, relatively short haul is quite expensive and brings less profits to the airliner.
 

Thread 'Space Stuff and Launch Info'

Due to the constant never ending supply of "cool stuff" happening in Aerospace these days I'm creating this thread to consolidate posts every time something new comes along. Please feel free to add random information if its relevant. So to start things off here is the SpaceX Dragon launch coming up shortly, I'll be following up afterwards to see how it all goes. :smile: https://blogs.nasa.gov/spacex/

Thread 'Radiation Hard Electronic Design for LVO Long Mission'

Venus does not have a magnetosphere, so the Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs) environment shall be much worse than in a LEO environment. Looking to the std radiation models for Venus, the standard radiation-hard space level electronic component with tested immunity LET = 85 MeV-cm2/mg seems not enough, so, for example, a 1cm2 Si die will suffer considerable flux above this level during a long mission (10 years for example). So, the question is, usually we are not paying attention to latch-up...

Thread 'SpaceX Starship development: 7th flight January 10'

Watch the progress live This is a fully stacked Starship (top) and Super Heavy (bottom). A couple of too-small-to-see cars near the bottom for scale, I also added a Saturn V and the Statue of Liberty for comparison. 120 meters tall, about 5000 tonnes when fully fueled. Twice the mass and over twice the thrust of Saturn V. The largest rocket ever built by mass, thrust, height, and payload capacity. N1 had the largest diameter.[/size] But its size is not the revolutionary part. It is designed...
