The pilot-in-command must advise ATC of his intention to divert to Limoges at least 15 minutes before the planned time of arrival.
The RPL must be cancelled for that day and a specific flight plan has to be filed.
The airline's "Operations " Department has to tansmit a change in the RPL at the ATC office, at least half an hour before the planned time of departure.
It is not possible to plan another destination and the fIight has to be simply cancelled that day (scheduled flight and not chartered).

On a given path, it is FL270 possible to chose between four flight levels (FL), each associated with a mandatory flight Mach Number (M). The flight conditions, static air temperature (SAT) and headwind component (HWC) are given below: FL 370 - M = 0.80 Ts = -60 C HWC = 15 kt FL 330 - M = 0.78 Ts = -60 C HWC= 5 kt FL 290 - M = 0.80 Ts = -55 C HWC = 15 kt FL 270 - M = 0.76 Ts = -43 C HWC = 0 The flight level allowing the highest ground speed is:

Either GANDER or BERMUDAS
A twin-jet aeroplane BERMUDAS or carries out the GANDER, or SANTA WASHINGTONMARIA PARIS flight. When it reaches point K (35 N 048 W) a nonmechanical event makes the Captain consider rerouting to one of the three following fields. The flight conditions are: - from K to BERMUDAS (distance 847NM, headwind component=18 kt) - from K to SANTA MARIA (distance 1112 NM, tailwind component=120 kt) - from K to GANDER (distance 883 NM, wind component=0). With an aeroplane true airspeed of 460 kt, the field selected will be that more rapidly reached:

Stress will be evaluated differently depending on whether it improves or reduces performance. flight planning performance decreases with age, and experience is unable to mask this deficiency
Stress always creates a state of high tension which decreases cognitive and behavioural performance. unexperienced pilots refer to information more than experts when carrying out the same task which is cited in current statistics, applies to the flight crew and ATC only
Stress is evaluated as a positiv mechanism only in connection with precise tasks of the kind encountered in aeronautics experienced pilots are less routine-minded than young pilots because they know that routine causes mistakes plays a negligible role in commercial aviation accidents.

During the resistance phase the parasympathetic system uses a different type of hormone (cortisol) assisting to convert fat into sugar thus providing sufficient energy supply to the brain and body cells for sustained operation. 3. During the exhaustion phase the body has to be given time to eliminate the waste products which have been generated excessively during the two preceeding phases, Smoking cigarettes reduces the capability of the blood to carry oxygen.

An aircraft has in the atmosphere the same qualities as a "Faradays cage", which means that struck of lightning seldom occurs. But if it happens, the result will be an occasional engine failure. The crew may get a shock. The turbulence is a large scale one (waving) so that the aircraft will be difficult to manoeuvre. The passengers will feel some discomfort.
Aircraft made by composite material cant conduct a lightning and will therefore very seldom be struck.
Aircraft made by composite material may get severe damage, the crew may be blinded and temporarily lose the hearing.
An aircraft made by metal has a certain capacity to attract a lightning, but the lightning will follow the surface and therefore no damage will be caused.
