Annotated Bibliography -Planefan25

  1. Boeing History . Boeing. (n.d.). https://www.boeing.com/history
    • Background: Boeings official history. It shows the first planes and the planes released my Boeing since then. It includes details about the planes as well like cost and capacity.
    • How I used it: I used it to develop my definition argument, it gave me an accurate history of Boeing since the early days. Since it lists the capacity of each plane I used to it piece together the early passenger planes.
  2. Konz, C., Happel, C. C., Turano, D., Daniel, G., Bigger, M., Design), O. R. (Cover, & Leishman, J. G. (2023, January 1). History of aircraft & aviation. Introduction to Aerospace Flight Vehicles. https://eaglepubs.erau.edu/introductiontoaerospaceflightvehicles/chapter/history-of-aircraft-and-aviation/
    • Background: This gave background on the history of aviation outside of Boeing. Describing the many planes and how they came to be what we know now.
    • How I used it: Again I used it in my definition argument where it was very important I used accurate information to describe the different ways innovations were improvements.

M., DingS., GarrardW.L., GoupilP., LeiY., Nguyen-LeD.H., SherstinskyA., Tran-NgocH., YinS., Ababa EthiopiaA.I.B., A., AerospaceP., BengioY., BerdjagD., BruntonS.L., ChoA., ChoK., … LerroA. (2022, March 25). Data-driven model for accommodation of faulty angle of attack sensor measurements in fixed winged aircraft. Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0952197622000744
    • Background: A paper on the mechanical failures of the Boeing 737 MAX sensors.
    • How I used it: They go into depth about the sensors and how they fail which was useful in my casual argument when I was going through how innovation killed people.
  4. Departmental guidance on valuation of a statistical life in economic analysis. U.S. Department of Transportation. (n.d.). https://www.transportation.gov/office-policy/transportation-policy/revised-departmental-guidance-on-valuation-of-a-statistical-life-in-economic-analysis
    • Background: This is the official guide the government uses to determine the value of life statistic in the eyes of the department of transportation. They also have a chart displaying the value of life over the last few years.
    • How I used it: I used this in my rebuttal to ensure I had accurate information to disprove my oppositions argument. The statistic provided in my oppositions article was correct but it never hurts to double check.
  5. Gandhi, D. (2022). Gandhi DWIJ STS research paper – libraetd.lib.virginia.edu. https://libraetd.lib.virginia.edu/downloads/xk81jm308?filename=Gandhi_Dwij_STSResearchPaper.pdf
    • Background: A paper researching automation in general that uses aviation as an example. It uses other types of planes as a foundation for their research.
    • How I used it: Comparing the 737 MAX to other crashes with other types of planes helped me conceptualize certain situations. Some of the others were human error, but the 737 MAX was mostly caused by the faulty systems.
  6. Harris, R., & Johnston , P. (2019). The Boeing 737 MAX saga: Lessons for software organizations. https://embeddedartistry.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/the-boeing-737-max-saga-lessons-for-software-organizations.pdf
    • Background: A paper written about the faulty sensors on the Boeing 737 MAX.
    • How I used it: I used this to strengthen my argument about how the Boeing knew the sensors can cause problems.
  7. Jakub Goldschmidt, & Branislav Kandera. (n.d.). Influence of stress on the performance of pilots in training. https://drepo.uniza.sk/bitstream/handle/hdluniza/786/2022_Ing_v2-22-29.pdf?sequence=1
    • Background: Studies on the stress endured by pilots. It shows the stages pilots endure the most stress, like first fly alone, mechanical failures and difficult landings.
    • How I used this: I used this to teach myself what parts of a pilots job are the most stressful. I believe it is common knowledge pilots have a high stress job but I wanted to know why.
  8. MAKÓ, S., PILÁT, M., ŠVÁB, P., ČIČVÁKOVÁ, M., & KOZUBA, J. (2020). Evaluation of MCAS system . https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Sebastian-Mako/publication/343474935_Evaluation_of_MCAS_System/links/5f4f6f84299bf13a31972530/Evaluation-of-MCAS-System.pdf
    • Background: This goes into the 737 MAX and specifically into the MCAS. But it also discusses the pilot error in one of the crashes. It also recognizes the issue of the rushed development.
    • How I used this: This was used to support my argument of Boeing knowingly skipped important processes to quickly rush the release.
  9. Miller, J. (2023, October 10). Are commercial plane crashes common? the irrational has the answers. NBC Insider Official Site. https://www.nbc.com/nbc-insider/how-common-are-commercial-plane-crashes-the-irrational#:~:text=Studies%20show%20pilot%20error%20(thhttps://www.nbc.com/nbc-insider/how-common-are-commercial-plane-crashes-the-irrational#:~:text=Studies%20show%20pilot%20error%20(though,due%20to%20the%20plane’s%20mechanics.ough,due%20to%20the%20plane’s%20mechanics.
    • Background: Quick statistics on the causes of crashes in aviation.
    • How I used it: To support my statement of most plane crashes are caused by pilot error.
  10. Rigner, J. (2020). Adapting to increased automation in the aviation industry through performance measurement and training . https://www.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:1501686/FULLTEXT01.pdf
    • Background: A research paper on how adapting to automation and if it is worth the risk. Their conclusion was that we have to take data and use the data we have to actually weigh the risks outside of just cost.
    • How I used this: I used this for a more social perspective on the issue. It focuses on automation specifically but I was more focused on innovation in general. It was useful to compare my perspective to.
  11. Safety Versus Innovation: It’s time for a rebalancing. Aerospace America. (2023, June 27). https://aerospaceamerica.aiaa.org/departments/safety-versus-innovation-its-time-for-a-rebalancing/
    • Background: A article written by a venture capitalist describing his opinion on the Federal Aviation Administration having tight policy.
    • How I used it: I used this as the base of my rebuttal argument. Since the authors facts are solid his argument is perfect to show that ethics are more important than money.
