A passenger mile is a measure of how many people have been carried by an airline or other transport system. It is used as the denominator when comparing number of incidents, deaths, mechanical failures, etc. of modes of transportation.
For example, if three people get on a bus and are carried for exactly one mile, the bus has traveled one mile, but the services has racked up three (3) passenger miles.
About 320 feet at 1 nautical mile on a standard 3 degree approach.
Car
yes that is true.
An available seat-mile is a measure of an airline flight's passenger carrying capacity - calculated as the number of seats onboard an aircraft multiplied by the distance flown in miles.
First - you DEFINE a 'passenger mile'. Then you define over what period the cost is to be calculated. Then you define what constitutes a 'cost'. Then you define the class of vehicles to be embraced in 'flown'. After that, it's pretty easy. Do I need to go on? say 200 people are on a plane trip for 300 miles. It cost the airline $5,000 for this flight. First find passenger miles: 200 x 300 = 60,000. Then divide the cost by passenger miles: 5,000 / 60,000 = $0.08, so it cost the airline 8 cents to send 1 passenger 1 mile. i made up the cost, by the way. i have no idea what it actually costs, just an example.
It depends on the system and the operating speed of course but as anexample of a typical monorail used for public transportation the Wuppertaler Schwebebahn uses 2.98kWh/km or 1.85kWh per train mile.This translates to approx. 2.25kWh per passenger km (1.4kWh/passenger mile)
A pax mile refers to passenger miles, which is the total number of miles that passengers travel on a particular mode of transportation. It is a common metric used to measure the usage and efficiency of transportation systems.
To determine the average cost per mile for a 34 passenger bus with a 7.3L diesel engine, you would need to consider the current fuel price and the bus's fuel efficiency in miles per gallon (mpg). Calculate the cost of fuel to travel one mile by dividing the cost of a gallon of diesel by the bus's mpg. This calculation will give you an estimate of the average cost per mile based on fuel consumption.
Atlantic ... the plane in which he was a passenger crashed in the ocean about a mile and a half from shore shortly after taking off from San Juan (Puerto Rico) International Airport.
From a statistical standpoint, yes. There are far fewer deaths per passenger mile from airplane travel, than from motor vehicle travel.
A four wheel car can drive on two wheels. There are 1/4 mile drag cars that can do the 1/4 mile on just the two rear wheels. There are stunt car drivers that can drive a car on just the drivers side or passenger side wheels.
Aren't they married yet? Maybe Jezza could go on CelebAir as a passenger and they could join the Mile High Club!
