  • do asset fire sales exist an empirical investigation of commercial Aircraft transactions
    Social Science Research Network, 1998
    Co-Authors: Todd C Pulvino
    Abstract:

    This paper uses commercial Aircraft transactions to determine whether capital constraints cause firms to liquidate assets at discounts to fundamental values. Results indicate that financially constrained airlines receive lower prices than their unconstrained rivals when selling Used narrow-body Aircraft. Capital constrained airlines are also more likely to sell Used Aircraft to industry-outsiders, especially during market downturns. Further evidence that capital constraints affect liquidation prices is provided by airlines' asset acquisition activity. Unconstrained airlines significantly increase buying activity when Aircraft prices are depressed; this pattern is not observed for financially constrained airlines.

  • a comparison of fresh and Used Aircraft oil for the identification of toxic substances linked to aerotoxic syndrome
    Chemosphere, 2016
    Co-Authors: David Megson, Xavier Ortiz, Karl J Jobst, Eric J Reiner, Michel F A Mulder, Jean Christophe Balouet
    Abstract:

    Fresh and Used Aircraft engine lubricants (Mobil Jet Oil II) were analysed using a Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometer (FTICRMS) and comprehensive two dimensional gas chromatography with high resolution time of flight mass spectrometry (GCxGC-HRTOFMS). The composition of the fresh oil was established, with special focus to its tricresyl phosphate (TCP) content as this has formed the focus for most investigations into aerotoxic syndrome. The results showed that only four TCP isomers were present at detectable levels in the fresh oil: mmm-TCP, mmp-TCP, ppm-TCP and ppp-TCP. The results indicate that the formulation of Mobile Jet Oil II does not contain the more toxic ortho substituted TCP isomers at concentrations above 0.0005%. The temperatures of jet engines during operation are greater than 200 °C which creates the potential to alter the composition of the original oil and create other toxic compounds. The results show there may be a significant risk from alkylated cresyl phosphates, which were identified in the Used oils at concentrations calculated in the range of 0.13–0.69%. w/w. Several xylenyl and ethylphenyl phosphates have been shown to exhibit a similar toxicity to ortho substituted TCP isomers which makes there discovery in Used oil significant. These compounds should be included in future Aircraft air quality studies and when assessing the risks and causes of aerotoxic syndrome.
