I suspect Tarmac is lingo picked up in WWII and imported to the U.S. Tarmac is a trademark of brand of material used to make a Tarmacadam road,apron,runway in the UK from 1882. Many airfields during the war where constructed of this material and style as it was quick to build compared to concrete. Tarmac is essentially asphalt using natural tar instead of bitumen from refineries which in the UK is known as Bitmac instead of asphalt. Tarmacadam is dark black and stays dark black far longer then asphalt which greys over time. So I'd hypothesize that U.S. aircrews, Army Engineers and such came back from the war knowing the airfields where made of Tarmac and that the dark black aprons, taxiway and terminal areas of U.S. airfields made out of cheaper asphalt just sorta stuck on being called 'tarmac' even though it has no actual reference to a specific place on the airfield. So ironically in a round about way the media is technically correct calling all those things the tarmac cause they are/where :P

Having worked at an Airport for 5 years, there is one thing that should be known. When any incidents occur within the fenced perimeter of an airport, the story takes on two versions. The truth, (inside the fence) what the workers who have access have witnessed and know of and the ( outside the fence ) version, a modified version designed not to panic the public too much.

To be honest, once you become knowledgeable about a subject, you realise the media coverage about said subject is most of time just terrible. They're more concerned about being the first one to report something than reporting it properly. And then we end up in a situation like the one we have today...

He is a consummate professional and has been flying for many many years. "A plane crash landed into a field!" A bunch of us gave the news source a hard time over that one. Must have been a slow news day.

"Tarmac" IS related to aviation, but there aren't many airfields still using it. It's been around since 1902 and is a registered trademark for macadam that has been mixed with tar (TAR + MACadam = TARMAC). Back in WWII most airfields used it for runways, taxiways, and aprons. Now most airfields use concrete.

rather most use asphalt, or a combination of asphalt and concrete.

Good luck with that. Im still waiting for the media to correctly and honestly report an incident involving a firearm or anything concerning the military. Lets face it: The media isnt interested in accuracy, they're interested in drama and political agenda. Its not so much journalism as much as activism today. The uniformed viewer mostly trusts that the media knows what its talking about and treats them as an authority, the media knows that and is happy to take on the mantle without concern that it doesnt fit. So endeth the lesson.

Very well said. My family is way too leftist to realise this is the same for all media regardless of politics. It even feels bad that American news is so heavily biased that I have to use the terms 'right-wing news' and 'left-wing news'. Whenever some right-wing news channel makes a mistake, then 'they are dummies and it is all fake'. When a left-wing news channel makes a mistake, then 'its a small mistake and no big deal'. Is the news information or entertainment? Sadly, there is nothing we can do, since a sensational story rife with error makes so much more money than a boring fact-checked one.

People often do, presumably because of the Gell-Mann amnesia effect. It's a term coined by Michael Crichton, mainly known for being the author of The Andromeda Strain and Jurassic Park: web.archive.org/web/20061030220418/www.michaelcrichton.com/speeches/speeches_quote03.html "Media carries with it a credibility that is totally undeserved. You have all experienced this, in what I call the Murray Gell-Mann Amnesia effect. (I refer to it by this name because I once discussed it with Murray Gell-Mann, and by dropping a famous name I imply greater importance to myself, and to the effect, than it would otherwise have.) Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray's case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward-reversing cause and effect. I call these the "wet streets cause rain" stories. Paper's full of them. In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know. That is the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect. I'd point out it does not operate in other arenas of life. In ordinary life, if somebody consistently exaggerates or lies to you, you soon discount everything they say. In court, there is the legal doctrine of falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus, which means untruthful in one part, untruthful in all. But when it comes to the media, we believe against evidence that it is probably worth our time to read other parts of the paper. When, in fact, it almost certainly isn't. The only possible explanation for our behavior is amnesia." - Michael Crichton

I'm sure the majority general public doesn't understand/care for the technical terminology that is given up in lieu of the catch-all/incorrect synonym. The media's goal is to outline the story using general terms that the viewers can understand. The media will preference 'tarmac' instead of 'apron' for the same reasons they will preference 'heart attack' instead of 'myocardial infarction' and 'cargo vessel' instead of 'breakbulk carriers.' In a perfect world, it would be an amazing learning opportunity for media to use specific descriptors for stories and reports

Don't forget Tomonews, i watched their video about the incident from Barcelona Airport, the aircraft involved is A340 and a 767 but tomonews showed an A380 with 1 deck and the UT Air 767 one was kinda good i got to tell except for that A340

I'm old enough to remember when that wasn't true. Broadcasters used to consider news a public service obligation and a cost center. Some time in the 70s local stations and networks decided it needed to turn a profit, so ratings replaced longstanding standards of newsworthiness. Producers no longer asked "do our viewers NEED to hear this".

There was once a news coverage in my country about a Boeing 777-300 ER that had an incident where the tires bursted upon landing. In a news coverage the reporter called the aircraft "The massive Airbus."

Members of the public could be forgiven for being nervous or skeptical about aviation safety if their only source of information is the useless media. Ive had minor events at work, for example having a go around, and the local news website proclaims "passengers left terrified as plane aborts landing at the last minute"... ridiculous.

In common usage "tarmac" just means a paved surface. While there is a specific trademarked paving process called "Tarmac" which isn't used all that much anymore, it was once quite common, and people got in the habit of calling any paved surface "tarmac" rather than going out and looking to see what sort of paving it was.

@anomamos9095

6 жыл бұрын

Don Sample. I don't know if Tarmac was ever a proprietary name or just the name give to the formula of tar fly ash and gravel that was used to pave roads driveways and often used on small landing strips and aprons even today. Many airfields were completely paved in Tarmac until the weight of the aircraft grew too heavy and required concrete runways etc. so Tarmac was a common term for the paved area of an airfield that's still used when the specific location is not known.

Been in aviation most of my life I'm 57 never have heard anyone in the industry refer to the ramp as a "tarmac" except the so called news media and for that matter the ramp has never been paved either, we always called a paved surface asphalt. must have been before my day.

Kelly Tipton in the UK we call all asphalt, tarmac so most English pilots would say tarmac instead of asphalt. If you were to ask an English man what our roads are made from its "tarmac" and they may complain because the "road is closed to be re-tarmaced". If someone here were to call it asphalt they would get odd looks or we would assume they are American. Its a simple translation. Why US news media is calling it tarmac is beyond me but in the UK it just means the plane was waiting on any asphalt or hard standing part of the airport.

Alex Andrews actually fella, Tarmac is a company name, they used to lay tarmacadam years and years ago, but these days nowhere uses tarmacadam because the main ingredient, tar, is no longer available as it was produced by town gas factories as a byproduct, the last town gas factory shut in 1973, what we use to surface roads these days is a bitumen based product, bitumen of course is an oil based substance this is why petrol stations are concreted as petrol/diesel eats away at the bitumen.
