  • Nevada-California, USA November 2014
    Nevada-California, USA November 2014 While the end of 2014 was approaching, I still had about ten vacation days left. Therefore I decided to spent these on a spotting trip. I teamed up with fellow reader EC and we agreed that the south-western part of the United States would be a great place to visit. The chances of finding nice airplanes and good weather in this part of the world are rather high, even at the end of November. We decided to spend three days in Las Vegas and then drive to southern California, where we would spend almost a full week. The primary focus would be on photographing airliners and fire fighting aircraft, but some number crunching was done as well (although most logs below are not complete). Please note that all mm’s mentioned apply to a 1.5 crop factor camera and all aircraft are only noted once per airport. On the morning of Wednesday 19 November Eddy and I met at Schiphol at approximately 8 AM. There we learned that our flight to Houston was delayed for several hours. Fortunately United Airlines rebooked us on flight UA908 to Chicago. 19 November 2014 Schiphol EHAM G-FBEI Embraer 195LR Flybe LZ-FBE Airbus A320-200 Bulgaria Air N14121 Boeing 757-200 United Airlines N652UA Boeing 767-300ER United Airlines YU-APJ Airbus A319-100 Air Serbia A few planes were noted before boarding the 22-year-old Boeing 767. The flight to Chicago was uneventful in my opinion. However some other passengers complained about the cabin temperature and as a result all passengers received an 100 USD online voucher, to be spent on United Airlines flights with in the next year.

Jennie Grant, President & Founder, Goat Justice League, and a Seattle Tilth instructor “The prudent man does not make the goat his gardener,” says an old Hungarian prov- erb, and it certainly is hard to imagine how a goat could beautify your garden. However, a farm animal “garden room” adds tremen- dous interest to your yard, and with a hand- some goat shed and lots of wood chips, it lends a certain charm. Goats are always up to something interesting–relaxing in the sun, chewing their cud, or trying figure out a way to break out of their yard and eat your prize rose bushes. While adding interest to the garden, for many Seattleites, the primary reason to keep goats is the milk they produce.

    Transcript: Song & Music in the Movement A Conversation with Candie Carawan, Charles Cobb, Bettie Mae Fikes, Worth Long, Charles Neblett, and Hollis Watkins, September 19 – 20, 2017. Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.

  • Airport Fountain
    61 far from solution. The difficulties of acquiring land and financing for this costly project appeared overwhelming. Mean- while, fuel tankers continued to make their noisy take-offs over Honolulu. The airport hoped there would be a technical development that would eliminate the need for this flight path. Highlights July 1, 1962 The Hawaii Visitors Information Program was established to welcome passengers at Honolulu International Airport and Honolulu Harbor, to encourage travel to the Neighbor Islands, and to provide information and other help to airport and harbor visitors. As of June 30, 1963, the staff of the HVIP consisted of 33 full-time and nine part-time employees. July 10, 1962 The widening of Taxiway X and restoration of P Road with a crossing over a new drainage ditch was com- pleted at a cost of $113,463.82. July 22, 1962 The Empress of Lima, a four-engine Britannia jet turboprop, crashed at 11:19 p.m. and burned while making an approach to Runway 8 on the Hickam Field portion of the airport. Twenty-seven persons were killed and 13 survived. It was the worst civil air carrier accident in the Islands’ history. The Air Force Fire Department acted promptly to minimize loss of life. Personnel of the Airport, Navy and City and County assisted in fighting the fire, maintaining order, and pro- viding ambulances and other services. The crash dramatically showed the need for continued cooperation between the Air Force and the airport. Several meetings were held after the crash and a number of suggestions developed for further improvement of the pattern for teamwork.

INTRODUCTION – SUPPLEMENTAL AND OTHER COMPENSATIONS 1.1 The apocalyptic terrorist attack by the means of four hi-jacked planes committed against the World Trade Center in New York, NY , the Pentagon in Arlington, VA and the aborted flight ending in a crash in the rural area in Shankville, PA ON September 11th, 2001 is the only real time example that triggered this proposed Convention on Compensation for Damage to Third Parties from Acts of Unlawful Interference Involving Aircraft. 1.2 It is therefore important to look towards the post incident resolution of this tragedy in order to adequately and pro actively complete ONE new General Risk Convention (including compensation for ALL catastrophic damages) for the twenty first century. 2. DISCUSSION 2.1 Immediately after September 11th, 2001 – the Government and Congress met with all affected and interested parties resulting in the “Air Transportation Safety and System Stabilization Act” (Public Law 107-42-Sept. 22,2001). 2.2 This Law provided the basis for Rules and Regulations for: a) Airline Stabilization; b) Aviation Insurance; c) Tax Provisions; d) Victims Compensation; and e) Air Transportation Safety. DCCD Doc No. 28 - 2 - 2.3 The Airline Stabilization Act created the legislative vehicle needed to reimburse the air transport industry for their losses of income as a result of the flight interruption due to the 911 attack.
