Here are some lessons learned from Case Analysis One, Two, Three, Four, Five, and Six:
1. Use the case analysis template that I provided: it is set up with running head, page numbers, format, reference list, etc. There is no need to change anything as far as the format is concerned. You may need to adjust spacing so that you are within the allocated page count, single spacing is ok.
2. Be sure in-text citations are properly aligned with reference list entries and that reference list entries appear in the text of your analysis. You probably don’t need more than two to three sources. You need to have one in-text citation for each section. They do not have to be different sources. You can use one source several times. All sources must be cited in accordance with the APA, 7th edition. You must bring the textbook into your analysis. There are more reference list entries in the example than you would need. I did that so you could see how different types of sources are formatted (e.g., books, magazine articles, journal articles, online sources, et al.). You should not need more than three sources.
3. The introduction sets the foundation for your analysis. It should tell me the who, what, where, when, how, why of your analysis. Introduce the subject matter of your analysis just like you would introduce a friend to your parents.
4. The problem statement should be stated right upfront. Don’t expect me to figure out what your problem is, tell me: “The problem is….” This is as important for you as it is for me.
5. The problem statement becomes the central theme of your analysis. Everything must be attached to it. If the problem is unmanageable, drop it.
6. After “The problem is…” everything else in the problem statement should tell me what caused the problem and/or what contributes to it. Tell me what caused the problem and/or what contributes to its existence. What led up to the problem? After each sentence ask yourself, “Did this cause the problem or does it contribute to the problem” if not, drop it and come up with something that does cause the problem or contributes to it.
If you are finding that your problem is difficult to manage or it is difficult to come up with causes and/or contributing factors, you may want to consider another problem.
7. Significance of the problem is the result of the problem. If the problem is not corrected what will result. What are the consequences of not fixing the problem? Will the company go bankrupt? Will a pilot lose qualification? Here again, after each sentence ask yourself, “is this a result, or is this a consequence of the problem. If it is not a result not a consequence, drop it and come up with something that is a direct result or consequence of your problem.
Here again, if the results of your problem are not significant your problem probably does not warrant analysis. Drop the problem and start over. It may be difficult to “let go” of your problem but don’t get confirmation bias. There are plenty of good problems in our industry. Find one you can work with. If you get stuck on identifying a problem, go to the assigned questions for the respective chapter. Those questions can provide a “problematic” situation that needs to be analyzed.
8. Alternative actions, are corrective actions, what you would do to correct the problem. Tell me the reason for each of your alternatives and then provide two advantages and two disadvantages of implementing your alternatives. Make sure your alternatives address your problem.
9. The recommendation is your chance to fix the problem if you had unlimited resources. If you were Jeff Bezos what would you do? Provide your recommendation, with rationale, one advantage, and one disadvantage. The recommendation must be separate and distinctly different from either alternative action.
10. Each section should have at least one in-text citation. However, one source may be used numerous times. You should consider two to three sources maximum.
11. Make sure your reference list is representative of your work. Compose your in-text citations and your reference list manually. Do not use any digital media to compose your in-text citations and/or reference list entries; they are frequently wrong.
12. Your paper should be “aligned left” do not use “Justify” to set up your paper. Again, revert back to my example.
13. Please review the Case Analysis Guidelines and Expectations. They are very helpful in guiding you through the process.
14. There is no punctuation at the end of URLs.
15. One space after punctuation at the end of a sentence; unless you are using a typewriter.
16. Blogs or wikis are unacceptable sources, do not cite them.

Robust Airline Schedule Planning

Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of
AVM 4302 Aviation Law
Introduction
There exist very general levels of risks and liability management that apply to local domestic airline services. There is a higher degree of care that has been set on air carriers. The practice of managing air carriers is very important as it enhances security and management of risks that may arise during a flight. What is more important is that there exist legal interactions between international passengers and air carrier that are governed by the Montreal convention and unique body of law (Davidson, W. N., Chandy, P. R., & Cross, M. 1987). This liability for passenger, differ depending on the nature of the ticket. The decision of an airline to provide particular flights relies on the predictions of the market demand, characteristics of the available operating aircraft, present workforce, competing airlines behavior, and regulations.
Problem
The main challenge with airline carrier is that the process of scheduling airlines is very complicated and not all people understand how it operates. The process of scheduling is the initial point where all other airline operations and planning take place. There are several factors and challenges that face airlines and they can do nothing about them. On top of its complexity is the human factors, political factors, cultural factors and other natural disasters (Jacobs, P., & Kiker, B. F. 1985). Also considering the number of regulations linked to aircrafts, airports, and crews all joined together also negatively impact on how flight scheduling is managed and run. Airlines are vulnerable to hijacking, accidents, which can both affect the lives of the flight crew and the passengers and at the same time affect the goods being transported.
Significance of the Problem
When airlines are faced with problems, there are numerous regulations and measures that can be put into place to ensure that such risks and problems are completely controlled and their occurrence does not lead to huge damage and losses. For example, in case of an accident, there are liability laws that help to make sure that both the flight-crew and the passengers are compensated for the losses incurred. Also it is important to understand that these airline liabilities are not practical to all carriers. This is an issue that has been solved in a court of law and has been determined and concluded. Also most passengers are against some extra “known risks” related to air transport. The situation is important as it helps individuals to understand the way an airline operates when covering its liabilities.
Development of Alternative Actions
Alternative Action 1
It is important if railway and airline can establish an intermodal alliance. This is important for passengers as the can have an opportunity to continue with their journey (Iatrou and Oretti. 2007).
Advantages. When passengers travel to airports using reliable means of public transport, it can help minimize challenges that are linked to road traffic and congestion around airports. Thus it is important to develop an intermodal means of transport to enhance easy, fast and reliable travel of individuals from and to airports.
Cons. There is lack of connection between the modes of transport because the rail and air industries use infrastructures that are very different and have different facilities and regulations (Iatrou & Oretti, 2007, p. 89). Also concerning the short and long-term benefits, it is not profitable using high speed rails to connect to airports.
Alternative Action 2
Another alternative cause of action is to extend the time for flight schedules in order to enhance and improve performance. This will provide an opportunity for airline operations to be fully accomplished and ensure that all passengers are satisfied with the services provided (McCartney, 2012).
Advantages. It will reduce congestion at terminal gates since only a few aircrafts will be waiting for connecting passengers.
Disadvantages. What is very evident about this action is that any flight that happens to set its flight very late, it means the rest of its flights will also take place at night, and this can lead to more delays. Any aircraft which has its off the gate flight very late may end up finding a big waiting line and that there is no room for landing and waiting for connecting passengers (McCartney, 2012).
Recommendation
I would recommend that the airlines should practice the sequential airline strategy of pairing flight crew and determining the route of the aircraft and these decisions should be carried out together in order to reduce the cost of operating the flight and of the flight crew (Hamilton & Nilsson, 2010b). This will greatly lead to first turnaround time tat will improve the utilization of aircraft. The drawback from this action may include passengers and the crew will have limited time for them to connect between their next flights.
Airlines can also accept to higher limits (Franks, M. R. (2007). This will enhance them to ensure that they fully cover the interest of their passengers by ensuring that they put into practice the best possible measures that can help reduce the risks incurred when travelling.

Expectations of the Case Analysis Assignment
The introduction should set the stage, establish the environment, set out the nature of the problem. You should consider that you are establishing the context within which your problem exists. You must have in-text citation to substantiate your introduction.
The case analysis assignment requires you to identify and isolate just one problem. This problem should be well developed, where did it come from, why is it able to exist? What conditions and/or factors caused it or contributed to it? Your problem statement is the common thread that you weave throughout your analysis, everything must be connected to your problem. You must have in-text citation to substantiate your problem statement.
The significance of the problem is the result of the problem not being solved. You need to indicate what will happen if your problem is not addressed or fixed. This is your opportunity to tell management they need to do dedicate appropriate resources to fix the problem. You need in-text citation to substantiate the significance of your problem.
Alternative actions are corrective actions based upon the textbook and/or magazine/journal article and/or other sources you are using. You need two alternative actions, each much have reason or rationale, and two advantages and two disadvantages. Here again in-text citation must be used to substantiate your alternative courses of action.
The recommendation must be separate and distinctly different than either alternative action. You should consider what you would do to correct the problem if you had unlimited resources. The recommendation must have reason or rationale, one advantage and one disadvantage. And, in-text citation must be used to substantiate your recommendation.
A reference list (in accordance with the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association) must be compiled based solely upon the sources you used to substantiate your analyses.

Introduction
Aircrafts have become a convenient way of transport that allows people to reach the right place at the right time. The way that aircraft improve, the lives of people have led to an increased demand for the product, allowing people to buy and sell planes more often (Rezaiemalek & Saghari, 2019). High demand in aircraft has tempted many people to buy or sell an aircraft but many limitations prevent the transaction. This study addresses some of the challenges that people go through when they want to buy or sell an aircraft.-ok. Comment by David Worrells: Aircraft is both plural and singular. Use aircraft.
Problem statement
One of the problems that have been affecting the sale and purchase of aircraft is the high cost of the products. The high cost of aircraft has been limiting the purchasetransactions because people cannot buy that which they do not have enough resources for.-cause. Therefore, people need to make the right call when they want to buy or sell an aeroplane to avoid unwanted circumstances.-result. Secondly, the lack of relevant information has been a limiting factor towards the sale and purchase of aircraft (Akhmetshin & Kovalenko, 2018). Unlike information regarding vehicles and electronic devices, buying an aircraft requires that one gather all the relevant information needed.-not related to the high cost of airplanes. Legal information has been posing a challenge to the purchase and sale of aircraft calling for the right measure to prevent a conflict with the law. -not related to the high cost of airplanes. Comment by David Worrells: Is this a second problem? This is not a cause of your problem.
You have identified two problems. You are instructed to identify just one problem and then identify factors that cause or contribute to the problem.
Neither problem is not fully developed.
Significance of the Problem
As mentioned earlier it takes a lot of money, commitment and will to buy an aircraft, making it important to know how the process goes. Therefore, it is important to learn all the surrounding factors towards the sale or purchase of a plane. If the information is not well distributed to the stakeholder, it might be an obstacle to the potential buyers and sellers, who will not be willing to risk their resources or products respectively (Rezaiemalek & Saghari, 2019). -result. The sale and purchase of aircrafts has gained popularity, but the activity could be limited by the difficulty of doing business in the industry.-result. This is marginally acceptable. It seems as though you are drifting from your problem statement.
Development of Alternative Actions
Alternative action 1
People must gather the required resources they need to buy or sell an aircraft. The ability and willingness to do business is the first step towards success. Advantage – The advantage of having the required resources builds integrity between the seller and the buyer and increases the bargaining power of the buyer. -need two. Disadvantage – The disadvantage of having the required resource is that a buyer or a seller is subject to misconduct such as a con. -need two.
Alternative action 2
Secondly, gathering information about the product, seller, buyer and legal issues can help to eliminate many problems associated with the purchase of aircraft (Akhmetshin & Kovalenko, 2018). Advantage – Information is the key to understanding the business model. -need two. Disadvantage – Information gathered could be limited by fake news. -need two.
You need to provide alternatives for one problem, you should have just one problem. Then, two alternatives, each with a reason, two advantages and two disadvantages. One in-text citation.
Recommendation
The main problems affecting the purchase and sale of aircraft is a lack of resources and information. Lack of resources can be solved through partnerships and credit (Rezaiemalek & Saghari, 2019). A skilled aviation manager, trustworthy sources and legal managers can help to limit the effects of unreliable information. Having to deal with two problems makes your analysis complicated. Your recommendation needs to have rationale, one advantage, one disadvantage, and an in-text citation. Two sentences could work. I don’t see rationale, advantage or disadvantage for either of your recommendations.
