TLMT318 Week 3 Forum Analyze and then discuss the FAA press releases, the document can be found in the TLMT 318 Course Resources folder in the resource area Be careful to analyze, not react to, the list of proposed fines, there is a lot of information to be gleaned from carefu l analysis. Analysis requires calculation not observation so you will need to set measurable parameters and then do the calculations. Reading the fines it is easy to recognize that many of the fines were based upon the leaking packages, that is observation not analysis. Saying that some percentage of the total number fines represented leaking packages is analysis; saying that most of the incidents were caught by ground handling personnel is observation, saying that a specific percentage of all of the fines represent cases where ground handling personnel identified the problem is analysis. You are required to do analysis. For your discussion: A. Basic results of your analysis and a discussion of your findings based upon the scientific analysis you have cond ucted. this requires mathematical calculations and development of percentages for criteria you select. B. Analysis of company owned material (COMAT) when it is shipped in the Airline industry and its supporting contractors. C. The training issues raised by this list. We know that the right training is not going to the right people so come up with explanations and/or solutions (not fines and threats of jail time).

Most "why" questions focus more on workplace related issues and business not academic or scholarly research so they seldom are acceptable questions for sch olarly research. TLMT318 Week 4 Forum Identify and then discuss unique safety (not security) issues you see related to each of the five modes of transportation. It is possible to identify the same considerations for some but not all modes, they all have unique dimensions. Your submission should discuss each mode and start by identifying unique safety considerations. You then should have a separate paragraph addressing safety considerations that might apply to groups of modes, there should be no safety consideration that applies to all modes, that is beyond the scope of the topic.
