Setor aéreo deve ter prejuízo de US$ 84 bilhões este ano, diz Iata

Companhias aéreas estão contando o custo de muitas semanas sem operar, com um aumento de dívidas e uma perspectiva reduzida da demanda futura. A crise do coronavírus levará o setor aéreo ao prejuízo anual recorde de US$ 84 bilhões, marcando 2020 como o “pior ano da história da aviação”, afirmou o principal órgão global do setor nesta terça-feira. O tráfego aéreo de passageiros deve aumentar 55% em 2021 em relação ao nível deste ano, enquanto ainda permanece 29% abaixo do nível de 2019, informou a Associação Internacional de Transporte Aéreo (Iata) em uma previsão atualizada. À medida que a recuperação das viagens aéreas ganha ritmo na Ásia e começa a acontecer na Europa e na América do Norte, as companhias aéreas estão contando o custo de muitas semanas sem operar, com um aumento de dívidas e uma perspectiva reduzida da demanda futura. “Financeiramente, 2020 será o pior ano da história da aviação”, disse o diretor geral da Iata, Alexandre de Juniac. A Iata previu um impacto de mais US$ 15,8 bilhões nos resultados do setor em 2021 - totalizando cerca de US$ 100 bilhões em perdas atribuíveis em grande parte à pandemia - já que a recuperação do tráfego permanece muito aquém dos níveis pré-crise e as companhias aéreas cortam os preços para captar clientes. Mesmo em mercados onde as taxas de infecção por Covid-19 caíram acentuadamente, as companhias aéreas ainda enfrentam uma série de restrições de viagens e a cautela do consumidor. A Iata está pedindo aos governos que se abstenham de medidas de quarentena que impedem a maioria das viagens, argumentando que as medidas de segurança a bordo, incluindo máscaras faciais obrigatórias, são adequadas. “Essas medidas devem dar aos governos a confiança para abrir fronteiras sem medidas de quarentena”, disse De Juniac.

Duke Kahanamoku reflects on surfing, Olympics, and old Hawaii in 1966 interview

Duke Kahanamoku is the most influential surfer of all time and is often hailed as the father of modern surfing. There is nearly no one questioning these titles. Recently, Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) Hawaii unveiled a never-before-seen interview with the legendary surfer and Olympic swimmer. In the 1966 episode of Pau Hana Years, a seminal Hawaii television program that aired on KHET-TV (now PBS Hawaii) for 16 years, running from 1966 until 1982, Bob Barker chats with Duke Kahanamoku, then 76. The conversation drifts from royal ancestry to Olympic lanes, from Hollywood sets to a surfboard shaped by hand, tracing the outline of a life that helped define modern surfing and Hawaii's public image in the 20th century. And if you know little about the man who dreamed of getting surfing into the Olympic Games, this is a precious piece of history. A name with history, worn casually The interview starts with Kahanamoku explaining that "Duke" is not a title but his giv...

The hydrodynamics of surfboard fins

Have you ever wondered why a surfboard fin looks like that? It is a single or a set of fixed blades or keels located under a board, near the tail, often no bigger than a hand. Yet that small surface is where much of the surfboard's behavior takes place. Speed, hold, looseness, and the feeling of control all trace back to how water moves around fins. The physics of surfboard fins falls under hydrodynamics, the study of how fluids behave in motion. So, according to science, they feature a shape designed to turn flowing water into several forces. Let's take a look at what's at stake when fins and water interact. Lift and the feeling of control One of the key variables in hydrodynamic terms involving surfboard fins is lift. When a surfer leans into a turn, the board tilts and the fins meet the water at an angle. The angle is enough to create a pressure difference between the two sides of the fin. Water speeds up on one side and slows on the other. The result is a sidewa...

How paddleboarding transforms your body and mind

Adventure is on our doorstep. With so many different bodies of water available to paddleboarders, from city canals to coastal routes, we can find adventure in places much closer to home than people might initially expect. According to the Canal and River Trust, 50 percent of people in England and Wales live within just eight kilometers of a canal or river, and eight million people live less than one kilometer away. I had lived within just a few kilometers of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal for years and never really explored it before stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) came into my life . The challenge created both a new perspective and a deeper love for where I lived and the areas which I passed through. On my coast-to-coast journey, I slept in my own bed for two nights as the route passed through my then hometown of Skipton, yet I felt I was on a grand journey of discovery. We are braver, stronger, and more resilient than we think. SUP not only helps us feel more connected to our va...
