Area forecast divides the conterminous 48 states into 6 regions, with each region centered at: SFO, SLC, CHI, DFW, BOS, and MIA. An Aviation Area Forecast (FA or ARFOR) was a message product of the National Weather Service (NWS) in the United States.
In meteorology and aviation, terminal aerodrome forecast (TAF) is a format for reporting weather forecast information, [1] particularly as it relates to aviation. TAFs complement and use similar encoding to METAR reports. They are produced by a human forecaster based on the ground.

1952 International Aviation Exposition: Northrop F-89 Scorpion wing failure during flypast. The list of aircraft accidents and incidents caused by structural failures summarizes notable accidents and incidents such as the 1933 United Airlines Chesterton Crash due to a bombing and a 1964 B-52 test that landed after the vertical stabilizer broke off.
This is the aim of multiple factor analysis which balances the different issues (i.e. the different groups of variables) within a global analysis and provides, beyond the classical results of factorial analysis (mainly graphics of individuals and of categories), several results (indicators and graphics) specific of the group structure.
Some modern aircraft such as the Airbus A330 have computerised some of the checklists, but other checklists cannot be properly programmed, because some problems cannot be correctly identified or diagnosed by aircraft computers; thus, the Quick Reference Handbook remains an essential in-flight tool for the crew.

The JACDEC Centre also monitors current safety occurrences and provides updates on airline safety issues on several social networks. The ratings take into account the number and fatality rate of the hull losses (destroyed aircraft ) they have suffered in the past 30 years, more recent safety data, and number of flights flown without incident.
