  • The European single sky needs high quality, simple incident reporting. 
    Brooker, Peter (UKIP Media and Events, 2006-08)
    The focus here is on mid-air collisions for aircraft under air traffic control (ATC), but recognising that (eg) accidents on runways and taxiways can be equally catastrophic. How can Europe know if safety levels are ...
  • Finding a good aircraft noise annoyance curve. 
    Brooker, Peter (Institute of Acoustics, 2008-07)
    The aim has been to find a good aircraft noise annoyance Dose-Response curve, using practical and robust techniques with the minimum of modelling assumptions. Several socio-economic/industrial and airport operation ...
  • Future air traffic management systems and rational actors 
    Brooker, Peter (Cranfield University, 2005-07-11)
  • Future airport expansion at Stansted , Heathrow and Gatwick: Statistics and methodology 
    Brooker, Peter (Institute of Acoustics, 2004)
    Chapter 11 of the Government White Paper 1, the Future of Air Transport, covers the South East of England, and Chapter 11 of the same document discusses Environmental Impacts. The major potential development options ...
  • If high aircraft noise exposure increases heart attack risks, what do we do about it? 
    Brooker, Peter (Institute of Acoustics, 2006)
    Is high aircraft noise exposure actually dangerous to people’s health? Is there a good way of identifying ‘significant danger’? What are the policy implications for government and airport operators of people being exposed ...
  • Is it Safe for Me to Fly? 
    Brooker, Peter (Royal Statistical Society, 2008-09)
    ‘Is it Safe for Me to Fly’ seems like a simple question. But who is Me, what is Safe, and why is there a reason for focusing on Fly? Is the underlying question: ‘Are the people responsible doing everything they should ...
  • Longitudinal collision risk for ATC track systems: a hazardous event model 
    Brooker, Peter (Cambridge University Press, 2006)
    This paper presents a collision risk model and operational concepts for longitudinal separated aircraft in the North Atlantic Region air traffic control track system, and indicates how it might be used to reduce separation ...
  • Reducing mid-air collision risk in controlled airspace: lessons from hazardous incidents 
    Brooker, Peter (Elsevier, 2005-11)
    The collection and analysis data on hazardous air traffic management (ATM) incidents is an important task. Expert judgement about such incidents needs to be carried out within a systematic and consistent safety framework. ...
  • Sesar's ATM Target Concept: Keys to sucess. 
    Brooker, Peter (2008-01)
    There is often a right time to do things. In the 1570s, Martin Frobisher abandoned his efforts to find the Northwest Passage, but the attempt might well have been successful today. The nature of a problem and the technical ...
  • SESAR: Getting Good Value for Airlines. 
    Brooker, Peter (2008-10)
    SESAR is Europe’s ‘Single European Sky Air traffic Research system’, targeted at post 2020. The vision is to integrate and implement new technologies to improve air traffic management (ATM) performance. The focus for ...
  • Thinking about downlink of resolution advisories from airborne collision avoidance systems. 
    Brooker, Peter (Ashgate Publishing, 2004)
    One of the open questions about Airborne Collision Avoidance Systems (ACAS) is whether Resolution Advisory (RA) information should be automatically downlinked to the display of the controller handling the aircraft involved. ...
  • Total System Management: strategic engineering design 
    Brooker, Peter (2005-07-12)
    The subtitle is ‘Strategic Engineering Design’. The origins of these words are very interesting. ‘Strategic’ is from the Classical Greek for leading an army. Engineering is from the Latin ingenium word for skill. Design ...
  • The UK Aircraft Noise Index Study: 20 Years on. 
    Brooker, Peter (Institue of Acoustics, 2004)
    In the early 1980s the UK Department of Transport (now the Department for Transport: DfT is used here to cover all its incarnations) commissioned a study to determine what index should be used to assess aircraft noise ...
