Sea ice landing strip for Boeing 727 in northern Greenland / Nirmal K. Sinha.
Title: | Sea ice landing strip for Boeing 727 in northern Greenland / Nirmal K. Sinha. |
Author(s): | Sinha, Nirmal K. |
Date: | 1995. |
Publisher: | USA: American Society of Mechanical Engineers |
In: | OMAE 1995. Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering, June 18-22 1995, Copenhagen, Denmark. Volume IV - Arctic/Polar Technology. (1995.), |
Abstract: | First-year 2.3 m thick ice cover in Frederick Hyde Fjord was used as operational runway for First Air Boeing 727. 16 landings were made after an elasto-delayed-elastic calculation showed that the ice should bear, and response of ice cover during parking was monitored. |
