This nonprofit aims to address the underrepresentation of women, particularly Native American girls, in STEM fields. Based near Tucson, the organization provides mentoring, instruction, and Space Camp scholarships to disadvantaged girls on a nearby reservation.

Gray ordinary seats, red when the cloth was removed Photo special feature ・ JAL A350-900 (second part) greeted with the first C check

By Tadayuki YOSHIKAWA  2年前の2019年9月1日に就航した日本航空(JAL/JL、9201)のエアバスA350-900型機。大型機といえば米ボーイングの機体と相場が決まっていた日本の航空業界にとって、欧州のエアバスが開発した最新鋭機をJALが大量発注したことは衝撃だった。 Cチェック中のJAL A350-900 JA05XJの普通席=21年11月26日 PHOTO: Tadayuki YOSHIKAWA/Aviation Wire  今年6月には、A350-900の初号機(登録記号JA01XJ)が初のCチェックを迎えた。Cチェックは自動車の車検に例えられる機体の整備作業で、おおむね1年半から2年ごとに実施され、JALのA350は2019年12月10日に引き渡された5号機(JA05XJ)まで完了した。  羽田空港の格納庫でCチェックを受けている5号機の客室は、シートの背もたれの布地が外され、整備作業と並行してオーバーヘッドビン(手荷物収納棚)の清掃作業も行われていた。普通席はダークグレーを基調とした布地だが、中の背もたれは赤色、ワインレッドのクラスJシートの中は緑色だった。 Cチェック中のJAL A350-900 JA05XJ=21年11月26日 PHOTO: Tadayuki YOSHIKAWA/Aviation Wire  JALのA350-900は発注済みの18機がすべて国内線用機材で、12月時点で14号機(JA14XJ)まで受領。年度内に15号機まで日本に到着する見込み。国内線仕様のボーイング777-200型機(3クラス375席:ファースト14席、クラスJ 82席、普通席279席)を置き換えている。  座席数は3クラス369席で、ファーストクラスが12席、クラスJが94席、普通席が263席が標準のX11仕様、14号機は普通席が多い3クラス391席(ファーストクラス12席、クラスJ 56席、普通席323席)のX12仕様で引き渡された。年末年始は初号機と3号機(JA03XJ)もX12仕様で運航している。  本写真特集では、5号機のCチェックの様子をまとめた。前編は胴体や主脚、主翼、エンジンなど機体の作業、今回の後編は客室を中心に取り上げる。 *前編はこちら。 *通常の機内はこちら。 *写真は28枚(コックピット→ファーストクラス→クラスJ→普通席の順)。抗ウイルス・抗菌コーティングが施されたJAL A350-900 JA05XJ=21年11月26日 PHOTO: Tadayuki YOSHIKAWA/Aviation Wire Cチェック中のJAL A350-900 JA05XJのコックピット=21年11月26日 PHOTO: Tadayuki YOSHIKAWA/Aviation Wire Cチェック中のJAL A350-900 JA05XJのコックピット=21年11月26日 PHOTO: Tadayuki YOSHIKAWA/Aviation Wire Cチェック中のJAL A350-900 JA05XJの鶴丸ロゴ=21年11月26日 PHOTO: Tadayuki YOSHIKAWA/Aviation Wire…
