...flew the jet, but investigators still haven't been satisfied about why certain steps -- first and foremost the deployment of the wing spoilers -- apparently weren't performed. A mechanical postmortem may help them decide; the wrecked plane got the Flight 800 treatment on Tuesday and was moved to a hangar for autopsy. The plane's spoiler system will be removed and sent to NTSB labs for testing that, in a few weeks, could definitively decide between pilot and mechanical error. USA Today's sources may be trying to save us the wait...
What's at stake here is the principle that aggression doesn't pay, that ethnic cleansing cannot be permitted." The troops gathered in a hangar at Spangdahlem air base in Germany cheer. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, standing in front of an F-16, is explaining the war in Kosovo to them. It is, to her, a defining mission for America in the post-cold war world. It is also, for someone who had to flee Hitler, then Stalin, as a child, a very personal mission. As President Clinton proclaims when she is finished, "Secretary Albright, thank you for being...
...learned from other structures too. As a kid he built model aircraft, and as an adult he flies real ones, both fixed-wing and helicopters. He did his national service in the Royal Air Force and regards the time he spent working in a hangar as a big influence on his later designs. Way back in the genetic code of his buildings is a feeling for hangar-like lightness, strength and frugality of consumption that came out brilliantly in such projects as his 1981 design for the airport at Stansted in England. Earlier airports had massive concentrations of ductwork above...
...most common jetliner in commercial aviation service could be headed for the repair hangar. The National Transportation Safety Board approved 10 safety recommendations for the Boeing 737 on Tuesday. The agency's action followed its investigation into two fatal air crashes, the 1994 crash of a USAir flight outside Pittsburgh and the 1991 crash of a United Airlines flight outside Colorado Springs. The board determined that a mechanical problem probably caused the crashes when the airliner rudder reversed, and recommended that the problem be fixed by making the rudder system redundant. "It's about time," says TIME reporter Jerry Hannifin...
...chance of that. Right now, it?s still all Glenn, all the time down in Houston. More than a thousand residents packed an airport hangar to cheer the two-time astronaut?s return Saturday; on Wednesday, the city will throw a parade in his honor. And you?d be hard-pressed to find a reporter with space stations on his mind at the Discovery press conference. How did Senator Glenn feel? "Ninety-five or 98 percent back to normal," he said. Does he have a message for the elder generation? "Don?t sit on a couch someplace, that...
