Queda de energia cancela voos em aeroporto das Filipinas e causa aglomeração no salão principal


Mais de 300 voos foram afetados. Problemas devem ser resolvidos dentro de 72 horas. Fila de passageiros no Aeroporto de Manila nesta segunda-feira (2) Eloisa Lopez/REUTERS A principal porta de entrada para as Filipinas se esforçou para retomar os serviços completos nesta segunda-feira (2), depois que uma queda de energia no Ano Novo abalou seu controle de tráfego aéreo e interrompeu cerca de 300 voos. Foram 361 voos atrasados, cancelados ou desviados; Cerca de 65.000 passageiros foram afetados; Outros voos foram redirecionados para o espaço aéreo filipino; Aeroporto de Manila é considerado um dos piores gateways internacionais de grande circulação; Atrasos são recorrentes por lá. Uma falha no fornecimento de energia primária e secundária causou a interrupção no aeroporto de Ninoy Aquino e deve levar cerca de 72 horas para as companhias aéreas normalizarem suas operações, disse Cesar Chiong, gerente geral da Autoridade do Aeroporto Internacional de Manila. Vários dos quatro terminais do aeroporto estavam lotados na segunda-feira, com longas filas de pessoas tentando remarcar voos enquanto outros passageiros cansados dormiam em cadeiras ou até mesmo no chão.

Aeroportos estão sendo construídos nas províncias ao redor de Manila para aliviar a pressão, inclusive em Cavite e em Bulacan, porém, esses devem iniciar suas operações a partir de 2027. O ministério dos transportes descartou a sabotagem, mas prometeu investigar o caos do aeroporto, que renovou os pedidos para que o gateway existente seja atualizado e melhor operado. Salão principal do aeroporto de Manila, nas Filipinas. Eloisa Lopez/REUTERS O gerente geral do aeroporto, Chiong, disse que a instalação introduziu seu próprio sistema de energia em 2018, mas que no domingo os sistemas principal e de backup falharam. Uma vez conectados diretamente à eletricidade comercial regular, os sistemas sofreram uma oscilação de energia que forçou o desligamento de equipamentos, incluindo radares e comunicações, disse ele.

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...
