1.2 Statement of Problem

In UniKL MIAT, there are some problems regarding on manual reading among students. One of the

main problem is the limited manual reading among UniKL MIAT student where student doesnt have

enough material for referencing. In addition, some of the lecturers didnt use manuals in teaching

where students become not familiar to manual reading.

The second problem is the difficulties on manual reading among UniKL MIAT students. In UniKL

MIAT, students have problem in the English proficiency which leads to difficulty to understand the

manuals.

The third problem is finding the solution to improve manual reading among UniKL MIAT students. In

order to solve this problem, some solution should be taken to improve manual reading in UniKL

MIAT.

The core of the research is what are the culture of manual reading among UniKL MIAT students?

FAA gives nod to iPads in cockpits for American Airlines

On Friday, American Airlines is the first airline in the world to be fully FAA approved to use

iPads during all phases of flight. Pilots will use iPads as electronic chart and digital flight

manual readers. The airline will beginiPad operations on B-777 aircraft, and then implement

across all other fleets. By using electronic charts and manuals, the safety and efficiency on

the flight deck is significantly enhanced. Both the iPad I and the iPad II have been approved

for use. Other airlines such as United, Alaska, and UPS are also reviewing this potential, but

none have been approved to conduct flight operations in all phases of flight except American.

This FAA approval cumulates the results from a 6-month test period whereby American flew

thousands of hours with iPads to test and evaluate the product.

The certification by the FAA comes several months after Americancompleted tests of pilots

using iPads in the cockpit. "American pilots started testing iPads as electronic flight

[manuals] last year," reported the Seattle PI in June, "replacing paper manuals. Now, they

have [FAA] approval to test iPads with electronic charts."

American Airlines spokesperson Andrea Huguely confirmed the FAA's move and said that

the federal agency had certified the airline as the first to be able to use iPads from "gate to

gate."

That means, Huguely said, that American pilots will be able to use their iPads from before

leaving the gate all the way through the flight and until reaching the destination gate.

Crucially, that means they can use the tablets--though without connecting to the Internet--

during takeoff and landing.

Huguely also said the iPads will allow American's pilots to discard the huge paper manuals

they have traditionally had to carry around with them--and update every 14 days. Now, they'll

be able to push a single button on the iPad and update automatically.

Even better, Huguely said that once the iPad program is rolled out across American's entirefleet--it is currently being used on Boeing 777s and will soon be on Boeing 737s--it could

save the airline as much as 500,000 gallons of fuel a year, simply from the lack of the paper

manuals, which she said can weigh up to 40 pounds.

In May, Alaska Airlines announced that it was starting to roll out the use of iPads as a way of

replacing its pilots' paper manuals, a process it said at the time could help pilots avoid having

to carry 25 pounds of paper when they fly.

"This follows a successful trial by 100 line and instructor pilots andAir Line Pilots

Associationrepresentatives who evaluated the feasibility of using iPads as electronic flight

bags this past winter and spring,"
