David Ray Griffin, and other truthers have been insisting for years that any plane which is off course will be intercepted by the Air Force in a matter of minutes . In the first few days, military officials said that no fighter jets were sent up by NORAD until after the strike on the Pentagon at 9:38, even though signs that Flight 11 was in trouble had been observed at 8:15. That would mean that although...

I have to confess to being a total railway nerd. My default position is that if it has metal wheels and runs on metal rails then it's a good thing. My poor, long suffering, wife on the other hand groans in despair every time I drag her onto a steam train....

The fee was brought in late last month and is compulsory as the airline will scrap all its airport check-in desks and only offer a baggage drop off facility at airports. Passengers will face a charge of £5/€5 per person, per flight, on bookings, although promotional

When American Airlines (AA) and British Airways (BA) filed for antitrust immunity in 2002 there was little hope that an agreement could be reached with the US and EU Regulatory authorities.
