Ask the Pilot

+ Posted by Josh Hallett on 05.20.03 // 04:33 PM

One of my new favorite columns on the web is 'Ask the Pilot' over at Salon. It's written by a pilot of course, and he offers some uncanny insight into the world or commercial aviation. In a recent column he discussed the logos and liverys of some well known, and some less well known airlines. The article is full of links to photography of the planes discussed. I don't always agree with his opinions, I am especially not a big fan of the Air India livery.

All the plane photos are on a web site called Airliners.net, which if you find airplanes even remotely interesting, you will waste a bit of time at. This is there most popular photo on the site, and you can see why.

why would it take a plan flying from san francisco to ny longer than flying from ny to san francisco if all conditions, including wind, were the same?
