Abstract. The article presents a theoretical model of the professional development of a transport security employee’s personality who performs screening, additional screening, and secondary screening for the purpose of ensuring transport security. The model reflects three consecutive stages of personal formation in professional activity: professional training, professional adaptation and development, professional implementation and potential decline. Each stage is described through a set of behavioral characteristics formed in the course of performing official duties. The model is based on empirical observation and relies on regulatory requirements and the professional standard. The results make it possible to trace the dynamics of forming and developing professionally important personal qualities and to use the model for the analysis and improvement of the training system for transport security personnel.
Keywords: professional development of personality, transport security, screening officer, professionally important qualities, stages of professional development, participant observation, professional adaptation, personal qualities, model of professional development.

Abstract. The article presents the results of developing a method for determining the optimal route for bypassing an aircraft (AC) of a temporally constant (stationary) zone of thunderstorm activity and heavy rainfall. The method is based on finding the shortest path on a graph. It takes into account the geometries of hazardous meteorological phenomena and the minimum safe distances to them. The authors compare strategies based on the use of convex and concave hulls in the formation of thunderstorm bypass zones. The analysis reveals a statistically significant difference in the central tendencies of the corresponding route lengths. It demonstrates that routes using concave hulls are on average 2% shorter, with possible absolute differences in lengths of up to several hundred kilometers. The main practical result of the work is that the proposed method for determining the optimal route to avoid a thunderstorm can be used as a tool to increase the situational awareness of aircraft pilots and optimize crew operations when flying in adverse weather conditions. It allows automatic thunderstorm avoidance using an autopilot and contribute to improved economic efficiency of flights by reducing fuel consumption through the selection of the optimal bypass routes.
Keywords: aviation, flight safety, optimization, thunderstorm avoidance, shortest path on a graph, Dijkstra’s algorithm, minimum envelope.

Abstract. The safety of ground traffic on the airfield movement area is largely determined by the effectiveness of airfield surveillance systems. Currently, radar surveillance systems are used to solve the tasks of monitoring and controlling ground traffic at the airfield. Despite their high technical and tactical characteristics, these systems are subject to the influence of natural and artificial radio interference, which can significantly limit their application for surveillance and traffic control, to the point of making the information unusable. A promising development is a vibroacoustic monitoring system, the functioning of which is based on other physical principles. However, vibroacoustic surveillance systems also have disadvantages, the main of which is the inability to observe a stationary object with the engines turned off. The urgent task is to combine existing and promising surveillance systems into a single integrated system in which the disadvantages of one surveillance system will be compensated by the advantages of another surveillance system. This article discusses the problem of synthesizing algorithms for complex information processing of object movement in the airfield movement area, with the possibility of reconfiguring information channels.
Keywords: integrated processing algorithm, ground movement, airfield movement area, mathematical model, airfield survey radar, surveillance system, multi-position surveillance system, vibroacoustic surveillance system.

Abstract: This paper presents an enhanced method for detecting critical edges in spatial-temporal route networks based on complex network analysis. Unlike previous models, the proposed approach accounts not only for the topological characteristics of routes but also for their dynamic variability through a composite weight that includes the average travel speed and its variance. Additional metrics, such as load centrality and robustness of connectivity, are introduced. Critical edges are automatically identified via percolation analysis, without the need for manual threshold adjustment. For criticality prediction, a gradient boosting model is employed, using a set of structural and temporal features. The proposed approach ensures more accurate, reproducible, and adaptive identification of vulnerable segments in route networks and can be applied in real time to support air traffic management.
Key words: air transportation, airway network, complex networks theory, spatial-temporal network, critical link detection, network centrality, percolation theory.

Abstract. The features of the analysis of fluctuations in wagon flows in the direction of the ports of the Far East are considered, taking into account the passage through the junction points of adjacent railways entering the borders of the Eastern polygon. At the same time, the incoming wagon traffic is presented as a time series as an array of data. The distribution of wagon flow is estimated using statistical hypotheses. Selection the type of distribution when working with a volume of data is an important stage of the analysis. The data set of operational indicators “loading” and “unloading” is analyzed. Statistical data on the volume of wagon traffic passing through the Eastern polygon through junction points was studied using a unified methodology with a sample of five years. To process static data on changes in wagon flows and form predictive models, the complex of statistical parameters is used as the main tool.

Abstract. The airworthiness of an aircraft is a fundamental concept that ensures the safety of civil aviation flights. It is defined and regulated through a series of international and national documents. The term “airworthiness” is widely used but is interpreted differently across the global civil aviation sector. Analyzing the definition of the term “airworthiness” within various international and national frameworks not only reveals the existing diversity of interpretations but also emphasizes the need for its standardization, which is an important task for ensuring accuracy in its application in educational materials and scientific publications. The analysis of existing definitions and the context of their use was conducted using content analysis methodology, employing tools such as the artificial intelligence ChatGPT, which helps simplify the routine tasks of identifying key characteristics and properties of concepts within a large volume of definitional interpretations. Precision and clarity in terminology are critically important for enhancing safety levels.
Keywords: airworthiness, safety, flight, term, definition, capability, compliance, risk, certificate, design, operation.

Discourse and Text: vectors of research
DOI 10.51955/2312-1327_2025_3_208
Abstract. Fairy tale is constantly changing during cultural evolution and technological progress adapting to the new realities through embracing many modern discourses. As a result, a new (hybrid) discourse is being formed, characterized by certain style and plot features. In this article, we make an attempt to analyze one of these hybrid discourses: namely fairy tale film discourse. Taking into account that the main representative of the fairy tale film discourse is a screen adaptation of a magical folktale, the analysis is carried out by studying lexical, semantic and stylistic features of its film dialogue (verbal component). The analysis reveals factors that can influence the relationship between the film version of the fairy tale and its literary basis. The preservation of the main conflict, basic values and main characteristics of the classic fairy tale in the film text as well as the creative development of the original are elucidated. Additionally, some ways of creating a comic effect in fairy tale film discourse are highlighted.
Keywords: discourse, discourse analysis, fairy tale film discourse, film text, film dialogue, screen adaptation, German folktales, Grimms’ fairy tales.

Literary Criticism
DOI 10.51955/2312-1327_2025_3_218
Abstract. This article analyzes the novel “Mungli kuzlar” (“Sad Eyes”) by the Uzbek writer Khudoyberdi Tokhtaboyev, with a focus on the artistic and psychological techniques used to reveal the inner world of a child. The study is conducted within the frameworks of psychoanalytic and socio-psychological approaches, which allow for a deeper understanding of the characters’ motivations, behavioral patterns, and the influence of the external environment on the formation of a child’s consciousness. The author skillfully employs a system of imagery, symbolism, and contrasts to portray the tragic condition of a child in a world where traditional values are collapsing, moral standards are deteorating, and the family institution is losing its foundational role.
Special attention is given to the protagonist’s personal development in a context of emotional isolation, lack of parental care, and the overall spiritual desolation of the surrounding world. Through the lens of a child’s perception, social problems become particularly acute, lending the narrative a powerful emotional impact. Tokhtaboyev’s novel is viewed as an important literary testament of its era, reflecting the painful transformations of society and the fate of the individual amid these changes.
Key words: image, psychoanalysis, psychological evolution, wealth, family tragedy, property, social inequality.

Problems and practice of technical education
DOI 10.51955/2312-1327_2025_3_229
Abstract. The article presents data on the study of the university’s digital educational environment based on the survey of teaching staff of different ages. The digitalization of educational activities has initiated the processes of introducing various digital tools into the educational process. In particular, universities actively use free digital platforms, on the basis of which electronic information educational environment (EIEE) functions. The widespread introduction of modern educational tools requires teachers to actualize the classical didactic principles in the conditions of digital environment. The article investigates the problem of the classical didactic principles evolution and rules in the context of e-learning, understanding the content of these principles, as well as the peculiarities of student learning with the use of digital tools. The study shows that the majority of teachers, regardless of age and pedagogical experience, understand the peculiarities of digital tools in education, see the transformation of classical didactic principles in the digital environment and the peculiarities of student learning in these conditions. Most of the teachers also note the “clip” nature of modern students’ thinking, which is manifested in the cognitive, communicative and emotional spheres.
Key words: digital didactics, classical didactic principles, electronic information education environment (EIEE), clip thinking.

Annotation. The federal project of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia «Advanced Engineering Schools», launched in 2022, aims to provide sectors of the economy with qualified personnel to achieve technological independence for the country. Strengthening fundamental training in higher education depends directly on the level of applicants’ knowledge formed at school. There is a decline in students’ interest in engineering and an analysis of school programs in mathematics, mechanics within the framework of physics, and technology revealed inconsistencies in the study of these subjects, which breaks the logical and content lines between theoretical knowledge and practice. The aim is to stimulate schoolchildren’s interest in engineering and technical activity, which will subsequently contribute to the increase of their learning activity in higher education. It is proposed to introduce interdisciplinary project activities for students in grades 7-11 aimed at forming holistic ideas about the world of technology and general engineering culture, mastering scientific knowledge and practical ways of action, developing key mathematical and natural science concepts reflecting the unity of the world and related to fundamental educational objects (concepts, symbols, models). ). A well-designed process of working on engineering projects will contribute to the formation of such skills as building logical and content lines between the sections of mathematics, physics (mechanics) and technology. For first-year university students, it will be a deep understanding of the logic of creating mathematical and physical models of natural processes and technical phenomena.
