Antarctica is often referred to as the ‘frozen continent’ and rightfully so considering 98% of the surface is covered by ice averaging a thickness of 1.6 kilometers.

One of our senior staff members have found a very peculiar airline company attempting to “make a difference” and set themselves apart from other airline companies. Surely this will add a new perspective or airplane accidents. Actually, this is more deliberate than a potential hazard. Read the rest of Choking Passenger Airways »
