    Integration of virtual and augmented reality elements into the training of future pilots
    (University of Žilina, 2024) Šulka, Michael; Škultéty, Filip
    The presented aim of paper is focused on the implementation of virtual and augmented reality elements into the training of future pilots. To understand the issues related to these technologies, in its introduction, the thesis focuses on identifying the differences between virtual reality and augmented reality. The next part of the thesis focuses on the analysis of the use of virtual and augmented reality in civil aviation. The following section deals with the creation of a virtual environment for the purpose of training of future pilots. The creation of the virtual environment is divided into two parts. The first part concerns the creation of the virtual cockpit of the selected aircraft. This will allow pilots in training to become familiar with the layout of the on-board instruments and controls. The second part of the proposed virtual environment allows pilots to practice checklists. Checklists are a critical skill for every pilot. At the end of the thesis, feedback from the students is presented.

    Využitie poznatkov z leteckých navigačných súťaží v prostredí leteckého výcviku a vzdelávania
    (University of Žilina, 2024) Liptajová, Kristína Jana; Škultéty, Filip
    The research is devoted to the application of the knowledge and evaluation methods of the Air navigation race to flight training and education, with particular emphasis on the importance of pre-flight preparation and knowledge of visual cross-country navigation. The thesis aims to evaluate the navigation skills of the pilots (respondents), which was done using an objective method, i.e. measurements on a flight simulator. The respondents were divided according to flight experience and year of university studies into three groups. The results of the simulator measurements revealed an improvement in the navigation skills to many respondents. The thesis further includes a theoretical evaluation of the knowledge of students with an aeronautical background. The comparison of the result is based on the evaluation of paired questionnaires of the same scope and difficulty, with the difference that before the second questionnaire, the respondents received professional instruction on aeronautical navigation competitions and the principles of comparative navigation. Improvements in the students' theoretical knowledge results were observed for most respondents, two achieved the same result and there was no deterioration in either case.

    New generation aircraft concepts and assessment of their design solutions
    (University of Žilina, 2024) Matzenauer, Robert; Škultéty, Filip
    The bachelor thesis is focused on new generation aircraft concepts, analysing new design solutions and technologies. At the same time, the thesis assesses the current state of development of aviation technology and prospectively presents new facts that can be expected in the near future in the context of civil aviation. In the perspective of new design solutions for transport aeroplanes, it first analyses the advantages resulting from a new type of blended wing body and transonic truss-braced wing design. In the context of conventional configuration aeroplanes, it discusses aeroplanes from the private jet sector and one specific piston engine aeroplane that competes with small jets in terms of its performance characteristics. The thesis also deals with urban air mobility, in the form of eVTOL flying vehicles, which aim to provide air transport in large cities and then compares them with each other in terms of their operational parameters. Finally, the thesis discusses the potential return of supersonic air transport, in the form of a new supersonic transport aircraft.

    Creation of a Z 43 aeroplane model for a flight simulator
    (University of Žilina, 2023) Poláček, Jozef; Škultéty, Filip
    This paper describes the process of developing a Zlin Z 43 aircraft for a flight simulator. Work on an aircraft simulation consists of multiple parts. The development of the flight model is the first and core part of the simulation. Work on this part consisted of an analysis of the X-Plane blade element theory-based flight model, sourcing of the data this model requires, flight testing and further editing of the data to match the known performance of the Zlín Z43. The aircraft systems are another core part of the simulation. A Mix of the simulator's default, customised and fully custom systems are used. The theory and process of creating, animating, and texturing a 3D model are described, too. Visual quality can also be important, especially for its use in virtual reality. The last part is about the user interface, user experience and how the various use cases shape their design for an aircraft simulation.

    Modification of the of the viper SD-4 braking system
    (University of Žilina, 2023) Antoniuk, Kateryna; Škultéty, Filip
    The Viper SD-4 is an excellent example of a Light Sport Aircraft (LSA) category of training aeroplanes. It is produced in Slovakia and used in several European countries and also in the United States of America. It is a very high-quality made aircraft, but some of the pilots say that it has one not very convenient component, which is the operation of the brake system. In this article researched how the brake system can be modified based on data from other brake systems used for the LSA category. The result of this research is the possible variants of the anticipated modifications and the analysis of the relevance of such changes.

    Selection of the appropriate type of hems helicopter for the Slovak Republic
    (University of Zilina, 2022) Neština, Patrik; Škultéty, Filip
    The diploma thesis deals with the issue of choosing the appropriate type of helicopter for the implementation of the Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) for the Slovak Republic. Currently, the Helicopter Emergency Medical Service is operated by a private company Air Transport Europe, Ltd., based at Poprad-Tatry Airport. The fleet of helicopters for rescue missions consists of three types helicopters. The oldest helicopter is the Agusta A109K2, then BELL 429 since 2013 and Eurocopter EC 135 T2+/P2+ since 2019. The aim of this thesis is to create an analysis of the current state, review affecting parameters such as operator options and possibilities, operating costs, maintenance costs, use due to the geographic features of the Slovak Republic and use of the helicopters for transporting patients with Covid-19 and other highly contagious diseases. The result will be the selection of the appropriate type of helicopter of the Helicopter Emergency Medical Service to be used under the conditions of the Slovak Republic.

    Specification of ultralight aircraft maintenance standardisation
    (University of Zilina, 2022) Maliňák, Ivan; Škultéty, Filip
    The exact definition of an Ultralight Aircraft is still defined very differently from country to country. Internationally, there are different Ultralight Aircraft (UL) classes with nationally varying certification regulations. Accordingly, the term Ultralight Aircraft is used colloquially more or less comprehensively for Very Light Aircraft or Light Sport Aircraft. However, the latter are subject to much stricter certification and maintenance regulations. This work aims to compare the current legal situation in the European Union countries, extract the best practices, and create a proposal of how a new “state zero” should define the laws and regulations to create the best possible environment for UL maintenance. This thesis is written based on information and directions published on the websites of the responsible authorities of the respective countries, as well as communication with these authorities and first-hand knowledge obtained by conducting numerous interviews with people in the field of UL maintenance. The results indicate how different each country regulates the maintenance and continuing airworthiness of ULs and how important a harmonized regulation would be. It is especially important in order to have clarity as with larger aircraft and thus also to prevent numerous accidents and hazardous situations in the future.

    Requirements for CAT SET-IMC certification
    (University of Zilina, 2022) Královenský, Marek; Škultéty, Filip
    The diploma thesis deals with requirements for certification of single-engine turbine aircraft involved in commercial air transport and operated in instrument meteorological conditions or at night. The work in the first part introduces the theoretical background of the whole problem and presents to the reader the reasons why the approval of this type of operation in Europe was necessary. Subsequently, the second part of the work states all necessary requirements for obtaining approval for this type of operation, including the legislative framework and the risk analysis. The following section in work demonstrates different values of risk periods along the same route, depending on different conditions affecting aircraft performance. It also introduces possible new means for increasing safety in case of engine failure and subsequent drift down. The aim of the work is to provide a comprehensive overview throughout the certification process and offer existing operators new solutions for their SET-IMC operations, which could also improve their level of safety.

    (University of Zilina, 2022) Škultéty, Filip; Čerňan, Jozef; Janovec, Michal; Chodelka, Frederik
    The exact definition of an Ultralight Aircraft is still very diverse, especially in the European region. Internationally, there are various Ultralight Aircraft (UL) classes with nationally varying certification regulations. Accordingly, Ultralight Aircraft is used colloquially ore or less comprehensively for Very Light Aircraft or Light-Sport Aircraft. However, they are subject to much stricter certification nd maintenance regulations. This paper aims to compare the current legal situation in the European Union countries, extract the best practices, and propose how a new “AMC & GM” should define the laws and regulations to create the best possible vironment for UL airworthiness. This paper is written based on information and directions published on the websites of the esponsible uthorities of the respective countries, as well as communication with these authorities and first-hand knowledge obtained by conducting numerous interviews with people in the field of UL maintenance. The results indicate how different each country egulates the maintenance and continuing airworthiness of ULs and how important a harmonised regulation would be. It is specially important to have clarity as with larger aircraft and thus also to prevent numerous accidents and hazardous situations in the future.
