the following stories:
Lighten up to protect airline workers from injury
Passengers at airports across the UK and
Europe are being asked to pack less in their
bags to prevent injuries to baggage handlers.
Union Unite’s campaign ‘Lighten up’, is also
making a renewed call for airlines to introduce
a maximum bag weight of 23 kg.
This is backed by the Health and Safety
Executive (HSE) Aviation Industry Committee
and the International Air Transport
Association (IATA). The current limit is 32 kg.
The spookiest hotels in US that can cost you your
sleep

Airbus Takes On Test-Flight Hazards
Plane Maker Revises Rules
for Its Crews, Advises
Airlines on Standards
aircraft maker Airbus is
ratcheting up efforts to cope
with a growing aviation
hazard: poorly executed
flight tests of jetliners
emerging from major
overhauls.
Spurred by a pair of recent
flight-test accidents in
France and a near-crash in
Britain, Airbus says it has
revised rules for its own cockpit crews, who are responsible for checking
the safety of newly delivered and overhauled planes.
In 2007, an Airbus jet being delivered to Etihad Airways crashed into a
barrier during ground tests.
Airbus also is helping its customers around the world develop tougher
standards for how airline pilots should conduct tests to verify proper
operation of aircraft following extensive maintenance.
Safety experts say the effort, outlined at an aviation-safety conference in
Beijing, seeks to address the problem of pilots getting into trouble when
computers or other systems act up during airborne checks of increasingly
complex and automated airliners.
According to the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board, over onequarter
of commercial-aircraft crashes since the late 1990s involved some
type of testing or ferry flights without passengers. Based on such statistics
and recent examples, French accident investigators earlier this year urged
European airlines and regulators to develop more-stringent rules and
procedures for conducting those kinds of flights.
Flight tests are essential after extensive overhauls, called "heavy checks,"
because the guts of the aircraft—from miles of wiring to cockpit
instruments—are pulled out and either refurbished or replaced. The
aluminum shells are painstakingly inspected for cracks, engines are taken

off and flight-control surfaces are removed Once the work is finished, the
aircraft must be tested and flown without passengers to ensure its parts
have been reassembled correctly and all systems work as intended.
While some airlines such as UAL Corp.'s United Airlines and AMR Corp.'s
American Airlines rely on specially trained and designated "check" crews
for such flights, other airlines assign regular pilots to verify the plane is
safe to resume flying passengers.
