Don't wear that Transformers shirt through security {Gadling}
Jun 1st 2008 9:57PM I realize that DHS and UK Homeland Security are separate entities, but both agencies share many of the same policies and rules (3oz liquids etc) as well as collaborate on much of their security infrastructure.
Rather than confusing the lay reader with different heads of Homeland Security and agencies, I figured it best to refer to them both as the same for this argument; this is, after all, a blog and not an Op Ed.
Please try to refrain from name calling and think from a broad perspective.

British Airways 747 with broken wing tip flies on {Gadling}
Nov 7th 2007 10:17PM I never state that the SL A340 lost its tip.
The BA flight flew out the next day; it was grounded overnight while they took off the wingtip.
As BA flew the 747 later, they must have thought it was ok, right? I'm not trying to quote them on that.

Either way, I think the article in the Daily Mail article is incorrect; if you do a google search you'll see a ton of discrepancies in reprints.
What I was trying to do was distill the article down to the following:
This BA747 is flying without a wingtip.
Apparently I failed at that.

Check the t&c's or call a NWA agent and they will fill you in.
Woman tries to open emergency exit -- midflight {Gadling}
Oct 28th 2007 12:57PM That cabin pressure has to drop pretty far in order to equalize that at 30k feet. If you're at that pressure inside of the plane you have a lot more to worry about than oxygen masks falling from the ceiling.
Oh, the places you won't go. {Gadling}
