Purdue University
There are few universities more closely associated with aviation than Purdue. Amelia Earhart taught there, 22 astronauts graduated from the University, and it was the only educational institution certified to operate an airline. Now, it is time for the aviation industry to give back to Purdue. Brian Futterman
Air Greenland
Greenland is a country that most Americans don't know much about. However, beginning in May 2007, we will have a chance to discover the island, as Air Greenland is slated to start nonstop service from Baltimore to Greenland Joel Chusid
Romanian Aviation
Romania is more than Transylvania! The country has a rich and interesting aviation history, including claims to the first self-propelled heavier-than-air aircraft and the first jet-propelled plane. Joel Chusid
Airbus
Amid much controversy, and despitii an unassuming start. Airbus has grown into one of the two major producers of airliners in the world. How is the company dealing with the problems surrounding its flagship, the A380, as well as the A350? Douglas Nelms
A380 First Flight
I am sure that practically every one of us would have loved to be aboard the first passenger flight of the A380 on September 4, 2006. 469 people were lucky enough to be on that first-ever ELF (Early Long Flight), among which was a very happy air traffic controller who was kind enough to share his experience with us...and with you. Christophe Labous
Aer Lingus
Ireland has played a significant role in aviation as far back as Brown and Alcock's historic first flight across the Atlantic. For 70 years, Aer Lingus and its predecessors have connected the country with the UK, Europe, and America. Now it feces intense competition from overseas, as well as from its own backyard. Robbie Shaw
Air Dolomiti
Even a routine flight can be an adventure when seen from the vantage point of a flight deck. We join the crew of one of Europe's first-rate regional carriers on a flight from Munich to Basel. Marco Finelli
Florida Airlines
It started by operating virtually the same route as did the very first scheduled airline in the United States, and lasted for an amazing 35 years, an eternity among commuter carriers, as they were called in those days. Read what allowed Florida Airlines to survive, and what led to its demise.
Rich Herring
Air Baltic
In a league of "Babyflots" resulting from the breakup of the Soviet Union and its flag carrier Aeroflot, Air Baltic is a study of how one airline beat the odds by recognizing the free market forces of competition and adapting to meet those challenges. Sebastian Schmitz
Longyearbyen
It is as close to the "Top of the World" as you can aet on a scheduled jet flight. What is the significance of Longyearbyen Airport, and why must the town's fire department be notified of the exact aircraft model operating on the daily flight? Robbie Shaw
Second Lives
We all know about the occasional airliner that is saved from the scrap heap to become a restaurant, motor home or even a houseboat. Read about two such Boeings
