http://www.arabnews.com Egypt Air denies ‗snake on board‘ claims

CAIRO: Egypt Air has denied news reports claiming that a snake has attacked a passenger boarding its Saturday flight from Cairo to Kuwait. The Egyptian national carrier released a statement on Sunday denouncing the reports as ―baseless,‖ noting that there had been a similar incident on the airliner back in 2012. Several news outlets in Egypt have quoted a Kuwaiti newspaper report that published a video alleging to show a snake hanging from the plane‘s ceiling. The report by Kuwait‘s Al-Anba Newspaper claimed the reptile had bitten a passenger on board, forcing the plane en route to Kuwait to revert back to Egypt for an emergency landing at Hurghada airport, about an hour after taking off. Al-Anba alleged a number of passengers were surprised by the presence of a ―poisonous Cobra on the plane, which caused fear and panic. It also reported one passenger was stabbed before they succeeded in killing the snake. In a statement, Egypt Air urged all media outlets to rely on the company‘s official statements regarding issues similar to this incident.

http://allafrica.com Nigeria: Planned National Carrier - Racing Against Time By Chris AgabiNigeria had a national carrier-the Nigeria Airways-that was run aground by corruption. A former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, eventually liquidated the airline in 2004 in a weird circumstance that has left experts trying to deconstruct the rationale behind the liquidation when the airline could have been concessioned or privatised based on its huge assets despite its liabilities. Indeed, establishing a national carrier for Nigeria is a key campaign deliverable of the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government. He hasn't minced words about this either. Therefore, even before ministers where appointed, President Buhari had directed the then Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Aviation, Hajiya Binta Bello, to inaugurate a ministerial committee on the establishment of a national carrier. The committee had a former Managing Director of Discovery Airlines, and now Rector, Nigerian College of Aviation Technology (NCAT), Zaria, Captain Mohammed Abdulsalam, as chairman. It was charged with reviewing previous submissions and recommendations on a national carrier, reviewing the report on the failure of the defunct Nigeria Airways and other failed private airlines. The committee which was set up in august 2015 has since turned in its report. In an exclusive conversation last year with Daily Trust, Capt. Adbdulsam gave insight into what his committee told the president in their recommendations.


1 sputniknews.com Australian Engineer Claims Malaysian MH370 Boeing 777 Found Australian engineer Peter McMahon has claimed that he has determined the location of fragments of Flight MH370, the Malaysian Airlines‘ Boeing 777 that went missing on its way from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. According to the 64 -year old Australian, who claims a 25-year record of catastrophe investigations, by thoroughly studying NASA and Google maps he has determined that the plane fragments are located 10 miles from Round Island, not far from the island nation of Mauritius, the Daily Star reports. The engineer claims that earlier searches for the aircraft did not explore this territory. Some fragments of the plane's front section were found not far from Rodrigues Island. The Australian says he sent the results of his investigation to the country's Transport Security Bureau (ATSB). The ATSB, he asserts, did not rule out that his find could be fragments of the plane, but, as McMahon claims, US government representatives ordered the Australians to stick to their search region in the Indian Ocean. "Four Americans were sent to Australia to track [search] results‌ They have made sure that all information received has been hidden from the public," the engineer told the Daily Star.

As McMahon tells it, authorities "do not want [the plane] found as it's full of bullet holes, finding it will only open another inquiry." Australian authorities have not commented on McMahon's more far-fetched statements. On March 8, 2016, the Malaysia Airlines MH370 Boeing 777-200 was en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 227 passengers, including one Russian tourist, and 12 crew members. The plane disappeared from radars and was believed to have crashed in the southern part of Indian Ocean. Search parties could not determine the crash location even after months of criss-crossing thousands of square miles of sea. US company Ocean Infinity offered its services to victims' relatives at the end of 2017. The company specializes in ocean floor exploration and conducts searches at maximum depth using autonomous equipment. The company offered to accept payment only if the airframe is found.

www.israelnationalnews.com Israelis forced off of Turkish plane after joking about bombs

Three Israeli nationals were removed from a Turkish Airlines flight over the weekend and detained for questioning after they joked about carrying bombs with them onto the plane, Channel 10 reported Sunday night. The incident occurred in Istanbul, Turkey, after the three had already boarded the flight. The three Israelis reportedly joked about having explosive devices with them on the plane – a conversation meant in jest, but which was overheard by a Turkish Airlines stewardess. After she heard the three discussing the bombs they claimed they had brought on board, the stewardess alerted the captain of the plane, who immediately ordered the three Israeli passengers removed from the flight and handed over to airport authorities. Investigators in Istanbul questioned the three passengers, and after it became clear that they posed no threat, they were released. The three Israelis took a different flight the next day. Following their removal from the plane and transfer for interrogation, Turkish authorities contacted the Israeli consulate in Istanbul to notify the Israeli Foreign Ministry of the three Israeli passengers‘ situation.

http://www.tradearabia.com Emirates expects high passenger traffic for spring break Travel is expected to peak this weekend for Emirates, as the airline expects yet another busy period with visitors passing through Terminal 3 ahead of the spring break holiday. The busiest time for departures will be on March 23 in the morning and continue all day on March 24 and 25. With road works and infrastructure enhancements happening around the main airport highways and roads during this time, Emirates urges customers to build in extra time to their journeys to avoid potential delays. Customers are reminded to arrive at the airport at least three hours before their flight departures. Passengers can physically check in at the airport as early as six hours before departing on their flight, and are requested to check in no later than two hours prior to departure, regardless of class of travel. Customers who check in less than 60 minutes prior to their scheduled flight departure will not be accepted for travel, the airline said in a statement. Customers can also check in online on both their desktops and mobile devices from 48 hours to 90 minutes before flight departure. In addition to online check-in services, Emirates also offers convenient car park check-in facilities equipped with 16 check-in counters, located in Zone C. Customers can use these to check in and drop off their luggage. Along with checked in baggage, passengers are strongly advised to adhere to carry-on baggage weight limits, which are 7kg for Economy Class and 14kg for Business and First Class. Staff will be checking the weight of carry-on bags at various touch points before passengers board their flights. Alternatively, customers heading to Emirates Terminal 3 can choose to drop their luggage at one of the 46 dedicated bag drop counters in Economy Class or separate counters in First Class and Business Class from six hours to 90 minutes prior to departure. Families travelling with small children can use dedicated Family counters in Check-in Zone 2. After checking in, passengers are also advised to make sure they get to their boarding gate on time. Gates open 90 minutes before departure, boarding starts 45 minutes before each flight and gates close 20 minutes before departure. Check-in and gate closure timings will be strictly followed to ensure flights depart on schedule, the airline said. - TradeArabia News Service

http://www.businessinsider.com The incredible history of the Boeing 737 — the best selling airliner of all time

The Boeing 737 is ubiquitous. If you've taken a commercial flight in the last 50 years, there's good chance it was on a Boeing 737. That's because Boeing has sold a whole lot of them. Since 1965, the American aviation giant has sold a whopping 14,545 737s. Just this week, Boeing delivered the 10,000th 737, a new MAX 8 model, to Southwest Airlines. To put that into perspective, Boeing's second best selling plane, the wide-body 777, has received a little less than 2,000 orders. However, it should be noted that the long-haul 777 costs several times more than the 737 and is used in different segments of the airline market. Over the years, the Boeing 737 has proven itself to be a faithful workhorse for airlines around the world. Its versatility is nothing short of astounding. What debuted in 1967 as a 50-seat regional jet has now spawned 200plus-seat variants capable of trans-Atlantic travel. With the introduction of the MAX, Boeing's long-serving 737 is set to fly on well past its 70th birthday.

http://gulftoday.ae 10 killed in Philippines plane crash MANILA: A light plane on Saturday crashed immediately after take-off from an airstrip in Bulacan province in Central Luzon, killing five of its passengers including the pilot and co-pilot, a civil aviation agency official and the police reported. Eric Apolonio, the spokesman of the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP), confirmed the death of the five passengers in the tragedy that occurred shortly before noon on Saturday. But Superintendent Julio Lizardo, the police chief, said the five other fatalities belonged to a family whose house was hit by the plane in a ―barangay‖ )village( in the town of Plaridel, Bulacan. Lizardo said rescue teams have so far recovered nine bodies and were still searching for the tenth victim from the scene. Citing testimonies of witnesses, Apolonio said that immediately after take-off, the plane stalled and crashed on one of the houses near the airstrip in a village in Plaridel. Apolonio added the plane, a twin-engine Piper PA 23 Apache, was bound for the capital city of Laoag, Ilocos Norte province in Northern Luzon On the other hand, Lizardo said members of the family had just sat down for lunch when the crash occurred, setting the plane and the house on fire which, however, was doused by the timely arrival of firemen. Meanwhile, Apolonio said the CAAP immediately sent a team of investigators and experts to the scene to determine the cause of the crash. The CAAP also suspended operations of the plane owners, Lite Air Express, pending the results of the investigation, according to Apolonio.
