Clerks Strike Bolts Norfolk and Western Rail Service

Thousands more support on picket lines, leaving the coal hauler near standstill.

Air Safety Experts Warn Room Left for Improvement

Air safety consultants Dr. Larry M. Hewin and F. P. McCourt warn that aviation may be running out of room for improvements despite recent midair collisions. They note improvements are likely from investigation driven refinements in regulations rather than major equipment changes. The pair, awarded a $20 000 grant by AOPA, stress pilots must rely on see and be seen while FAA reforms are debated.
