Here, in a retrofitted hangar in the heart of tobacco country, is an early glimpse of what life could be like if the recent Senate compromise on immigration passes. Two busloads of tobacco workers, fresh from the Mexican state of Nayarít, are met and ministered to by a cadre of social and health workers, a federal agent from the Department of Labor, even a union organizer. In all, they spend almost four hours filling out paperwork, watching movies about how to avoid pesticide sickness and getting a set of no-nonsense rules (if you fight, you're fired...
...Airbus and Lufthansa, the manufacturer and close client, had picked JFK's Hangar 19 to launch the plane in New York. It was also the spot where Pan Am had begun the maiden voyage of the Boeing 747 in 1970. And it is in Boeing's shadow that the A380 flies. It hasn't helped Airbus that the $300 million plane was two years late to its own party. Airbus suffered a terrible financial year due to A380 production delays, costing it an estimated $6.61 billion in forecast profit. The company also plans to cut 10,000 jobs. It estimates...

He is so confident, he plans to take his two kids, his 91-year-old dad and his 88-year-old mother with him. A Virgin Galactic prototype is taking shape on a hangar floor in California's Mojave Desert. New Mexico is negotiating leases with Virgin for its proposed spaceport, where space tourists could do some preflight vacationing. Designer Philippe Starck has been retained to add chic to Virgin Galactic plane interiors, hotels and spaceports. And despite the ticket price, sales are already...
...which I shouldn't have been invited - and technically, I hadn't been. The invitation had gone out to TIME's publisher, who to his deep regret had been unable to go, leaving me to be drafted in his place. That's how I found myself in the hangar-sized Peacock Room of Tokyo's opulent Imperial Hotel, rubbing shoulders with the cream of Japan's corporate class. These were men - they were almost all men - who control companies worth billions of dollars. I control a checkbook that sometimes has a positive balance, making me something of an impostor...
