The world newest Jet

It's official: Airbus' brand-new A350 widebody jet has become the newest aircraft to fly paying airline passengers.
Qatar Airways Flight 67 went into the record books Thursday as the first revenue flight to be flown on the A350, departing the airline's hub in Doha at 7:49 a.m. and landing in Frankfurt at 12:28 p.m., all times local. Qatar Airways is the global launch customer for the A350.
The A350 is likely to be last completely new aircraft to come online in the foreseeable future. Neither Boeing nor Airbus currently have any all-new models under way, meaning it could be a decade or longer until passengers see another all-new aircraft type produced by either of the world's two major jetmakers.

JET LAG: all you need to know

Whether you're a "Road Warrior" who has piled up thousands of Frequent Flier Miles, or someone who is planning a vacation to a distant location, you are likely to experience the phenomenon of "jet lag," which can have a profound effect on your sleep and alertness. Every day, millions of travelers struggle against one of the most common sleep disorders — jet lag. For years, jet lag was considered merely a state of mind. Now, studies have shown that the condition actually results from an imbalance in our body's natural "biological clock" caused by traveling to different time zones. Basically, our bodies work on a 24-hour cycle called " circadian rhythms ."

HOW AIRPLANE BANNER ADD WORKS



My most fun in flying is always on Towing the banners, its one of the most amazing flying stunts to see. The Airplane Banner add incorporates the use of aircraft to create, transport, or display, advertising media. It is effective if a large target audience is gathered near the source of advertising. Aerial banner towing are usually strategically displayed near large audience.This is a non-conventional way for advertisers to get their messages out. It is one of the most successful ways to reach a large number of people at once. There is high response to aerial advertising. According to **Arnold Aerial Advertising**, "88% of people remembered seeing the airplane banner go by after 30 minutes, 79% could remember the product or service being advertised and 67% retained at least half the message from the ad."
