Saving Fuel With An iPad
Aiurline pilots traditionally carry masses of paper documents on each flight. But according to this article, American Airlines are now replacing this excess baggage with iPads.
American Airlines are quoted in the article as saving a million dollars in fuel costs and reducing the major cause of pilot injury; the carrying of the documents.
I suppose for safety, they could even carry a second iPad, in case the first decides to fail.

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
Why Anonymous? That’s how you feel at times.
