A Type Evaluation of 19-seats Twin Engine Propeller Aircraft Operating to Remote Offshore-islands Routes / 偏遠離島航線十九人座雙螺旋槳機型評選之研究

碩士 / 國立臺灣海洋大學 / 航運管理學系 / 104 / The purpose of this thesis is focusing on the possible aircraft choices for airliners and government departments, whose primary duty includes the remote offshore islands routes flight, like the Air force, National Airborne Service Corps and Daily Air Corporation. Daily Air Corporation retrieve the right to operate domestic remote offshore islands routes for another decade, but its Dornier Do-228 fleet shall retire before June, 2016. These above organizations have common need on the qualifications of the candidate aircrafts, such as twin-engines, 19seats capacity (under the CAA part 188 & 339 and FAA Title 14 CFR part 121.391), STOL capability and moderate maintenance cost with proper reliability.
This thesis uses a two stages expert questionnaire evaluation. At the first stage, Focus Group and Likert Five Scale were adopted. Through an investigation of experts, a hierarchic framework is built to examine the critical criteria and affiliated sub-criteria. This study exploits the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to evaluate the relative weights of all sub-criteria and the potential of four aircrafts, i.e., CASA C-212、Viking Air DHC-6、PZL M-28 and Let L-410.
The subjects in this experiment include aviation authorities, aircraft pilots and professors. A practical rank pair-wise comparison (RPC) method is used to measure the relative weights for the expert questionnaires, and satisfy the requirement of consistent expression. It makes the opinion collection and calculation of weight estimation relatively less complex than the traditional pair-wise comparison.
When conducting a proposed AHP procedure, there are four dimensions including technic-performance, economic-performance, social-related performance and expand or augment performance and twelve critical sub-criteria, while the takes-off distance required is the most important sub-criteria. This evidently shows how severe the conditions are of such airport that operates the remote offshore islands routes. Final results reveal CASA C-212 is the aircraft valued highest among four candidates, then followed by Viking Air DHC-6、PZL M-28 and Let L-410.
