...Angeles correspondent Jeanne McDowell caught up with Donald Trump in the winter of 1987. It was the weekend of the Preservation Ball in Palm Beach, Fla., and Trump, the subject of this week's Profile section, invited McDowell to fly there with him from New York aboard his recently acquired Boeing 727. Twenty months later McDowell was once again airborne with Trump, this time diving and rising around the Manhattan skyline in Trump's French Puma helicopter. If Trump is not a comfortable interview for those with queasy stomachs, neither is he an easy subject when it comes to probing...
...inspected every aircraft in Eastern's fleet and deemed the airline safe. But Flight 251's harrowing ride rekindled suspicions that metal fatigue induced by changes in cabin pressure during thousands of takeoffs and landings have decreased the margin of safety in commercial aviation. Although older jetliners have been subject to special inspections since 1983, the FAA responded to the Aloha accident by ordering airlines to replace the rivets on 737s built before 1971.

He will weigh in at times with topical examinations of news events, step back on other occasions to take...
Here we go again. Exploiting white America's ignorance of historic racial oppression, Hollywood casts a spotlight on the rich but neglected story of the black struggle for equal rights. As has happened with every popular work on the subject, from Uncle Tom's Cabin to Roots, Mississippi Burning evokes a gasp of horrified discovery from many whites who act as if they are learning about the viciousness of slavery and segregation for the very first time. Unfortunately, the film does little to deepen the knowledge of its audience. Though its producers say the movie is fictional, they so artfully...
