Aviation Humour
2008-10-21 16:45:00 Here is a link to a humourous piece entitled GPWS Flowchart; GPWS stands for, "Ground Proximity Warning System".

Living in the age of stupid

I remember that there were a lot of floods in England and in some parts of Sweden as well. The biblical fires in Greece and western USA also linger in my mind. With these memories I find it hard to feel an urge to book a flight to some distant resort. We live in the age of stupid.The very same ad was posted over and over again on almost all the ad signs of this street. Very ugly indeed.

Green ad from Uppsala air
2008-04-10 20:49:00 Here is an ad from Uppsala Air, a company planning to transform a former airbase ground into a commercial airport for low cost aviation. The runways are only 5 km from downtown Uppsala.The ad was recently published in a local freely distributed newspaper, strategically embeded in a theme section about the environment. It reads "Are you dreaming of flying greener? Choose a cheaper ticket."Below the rapturous lady they say that they are in the process of building Europe's greenest airport, but they haven't yet attained any permission from the local authorities to proceed. They claim that there will be no congestion on the ground or in the sky. Considering the current oil situation this may very well be a likely scenario. They say low cost aviation is cleaner than conventional aviation because of newer planes and more efficient use. Even though they can be less pollutive the fact remains that aviation is the dirtiest means of transportation and it is steadily increasing year by year....

American Airlines canceled 1000 + 460 flights
2008-04-09 21:04:00 Two days of mass cancellations for American Airlines due to safety inspections...clipped from money.cnn.com American Airlines (NYSE:AMR) canceled more than 1,000 flights Wednesday, more than one-third of its schedule, as it spent a second straight day inspecting the wiring on some of its jets -- the same issue that caused it to scrub hundreds of flights two weeks ago.

Federal inspectors found problems with wiring work done two weeks ago, although the airline says passenger safety was never jeopardized....making them less resilient in the tough times ahead.clipped from money.cnn.com The cancellations and resulting loss of revenue could hardly come at a worse time for American, which is facing high fuel prices and a weakening economy that could hurt demand for travel.

How airlines tackle soaring fuel costs
2008-04-08 22:56:00 Airlines are going on a diet to survive.clipped from www.cnn.com With jet fuel prices so high, airlines have no choice but to scour their planes for ways to lighten the load. There's no room for even the smallest bits of dead weight, from redundant wing lights to extra wires in the walls. Manufacturers also are using lighter materials in plane construction.clipped from www.cnn.com "Reducing consumption is a certainty," Heimlich said. "You're always going to win by consuming less energy." To that end, carriers have pulled out unused ovens, magazine racks and trash compactors during the past few years. Some removed paper manuals in the cockpit and installed electronic maintenance logbooks. Last year, American replaced its silverware on business and first class with another set that was made from a lighter metal. Sherri Shamblin, US Airways vice president for InFlight Services, said management realized it could save fuel by simply replacing meal carts with ones that weigh 12 pounds l...
