Virgin boss Branson criticises flight ban as ‘wrong decision’

Source: ALASTAIR JAMIESON telegraph.co.uk

Virgin Atlantic boss, Sir Richard Branson, said the airline lost about £50 million in six days and called for compensation for the industry.

Sir Richard said: “We've never asked for Government help in 25 years. We didn't even ask for Government help after 9/11. We took it on the chin.

But I think on this occasion this was very much a Government decision to ground the planes and we would suggest that the Government should compensate the industry.

Behind the scenes our engineers and all the experts were telling us that there was no danger at all to flying and that the danger would have been if we had flown close to Iceland through the volcano.

There were plenty of corridors through which the airlines could have flown through which would have been quite safe, so I think the Government has accepted that there was overreaction.

Whether or not there was overreaction or not I think the correct thing in a situation like this would be for the industry to be helped.

The experts in the industry were saying it was safe to fly. A blanket ban of the whole of Europe was not the right decision.

The first few days the ash was up at 35,000ft, the planes could have flown below 35,000ft. There were plenty of ways of dealing with it.

But actually, planes have to put with sandstorms in Africa, the engines are designed to put up with a lot more than existed.” continue reading »

Air Security Expert Says Full-Body Scanners are ‘Useless’

Israeli tells Canadian MPs high-tech machines can be easily fooled

23 April 2010—Boasting he could easily slip through one of Canada’s new full-body scanners with enough explosives to blow up a jumbo jet, a leading Israeli airport security expert says the federal government has wasted millions of dollars to install “useless” imaging machines at airports across the country.

“I don't know why everybody is running to buy these expensive and useless machines. I can overcome the body scanners with enough explosives to bring down a Boeing 747,” Rafi Sela told parliamentarians probing the state of aviation safety in Canada on Thursday.

“That’s why we haven't put them in our airport.”

Sela, former chief security officer at the Israel Airport Authority and a 30-year veteran in airport security and defence technology, helped design the security apparatus at Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion International Airport. He spoke to MPs on the House of Commons transport committee via video conference from Kfar Vradim, Israel.

Sela’s pronouncements on the imaging machines come on the heels of the purchase of 44 body scanners for major Canadian airports. Each machine cost $250,000 and is being used for secondary screening to detect non-metallic threats, unless the passenger prefers a physical pat-down.

“You are running after the incidents instead of being in front of them,” Sela said of Canadian airport security officials. continue reading »

Field McConnell Letter to European Pilots

To: BALPA, V-Cockpit, SNPL, TALPA and IFALPA Pilots

Subject: Volcanic Dust and MET Office

21 April, 2010

Dear Brother Pilots in Germany, France, Turkey and England,

On 19 January, 2010, I appeared in US District Court, District of Washington, DC as the Plaintiff in Civil Case 1:08-1600 (RMC). The Case is attached and the core issue is illegal modifications of civil airliners. As a courtesy to the Court, Chapter 4, linked below, was ‘redacted’ pending progress in the Civil Case. On 1 April, 2010 I requested that my attorney withdraw from the case, so that I might proceed PRO SE and Chapter 4 was ‘unredacted’. ALPA had been made aware of the contents of Chapter 4 prior to 19 January, 2010 [ MET Office Volcanic Dust Manipulation ].

Yesterday, April 20, 2010, Chapter 13 of the book went on line.

Chapter 13 has additional ‘content’ regarding the MET Office and Volcanic Ash.

Further, much additonal information is available at http://abeldanger.blogspot.com and that blogspot is updated 24/7 as additonal information becomes available.

Our investigators had previously communicated with SNPL regarding Air France 447. We got no response.

If any airline employees or union representatives have any questions regarding the MET Office and their capabilities relating to Volcanic Ash, do not hesitate to contact either myself or David Hawkins.

Warm Regards,

Captain Field McConnell & David Hawkins

Canada in 9/11—$1 billion Volcanic Ash Advisory Frauds

Maurice Strong

Hawks’ CAFE has evidence that Northwestern University and its Kellogg School of Management alumni used hypothetical model runs and weather simulations generated by the Montreal Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre (VAAC) network and an airborne internet—‘Charlotte's Web’—to disrupt security systems of U.S. command centers during the attacks of 9/11.

We allege that Maurice Strong and Colonel Russell Williams, the recently-arrested former commander of Camp Mirage, made fraudulent use of the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centers to punish climate-change violators during the 9/11 attack on America.

Iceland’s volcanic ash: A class action lawsuit in the making

Source: goalgroup.com

The Met Office has been accused of using a scientific model based on “probability” rather than fact to forecast the spread of the volcanic ash cloud that made Europe a no-fly zone.

Legal experts suggested passengers and airlines may be able to sue the Government for more than £1 billion in compensation.

“This may well open the way for wider litigation against the Met Office and other government agencies that are found to have failed in their duty of care. The damages and legal costs could break the £1 billion mark.” ~Jeff Zindani, Forum Law solicitors

Much of the blame was directed at the Met Office’s Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre (VAAC). It provided the initial warning, which triggered the European-wide ban via Eurocontrol, the air traffic control centre in Brussels. continue reading »

Met Office ‘Fairy Dust’ in Bullingdon Insurance Fraud

Source: CAPTAIN SHERLOCK telegraph.co.uk/news/jamesdelingpole

In 1990, Bullingdon Club alumni ordered David Cameron (HSBC Family) and Norman Lamont (ex-Rothschild) to set up the Met Office as a weather derivative trading arm of the Ministry of Defence to simulate weather events and trigger cat-bond insurance frauds on Lloyd’s of London.

In 1996, Bullingdon alumni ordered Ed Balls (PPE) and Gordon Brown (USS) to set up the Volcanic Ash Advisory Center network to generate ‘fairy dust’ simulation of ash plumes for use in triggering cat-bond insurance frauds on Lloyd’s of London.

We believe that the Met Office forecasts are now directed by a Bullingdon Club crime syndicate which we have identified as ‘The SCRAP Merchant’, where the acronym has been derived from Serco, Cameron (HSBC), Rothschild, Aviva and Patents.

Peter Dunscombe, chairman of the BBC Pension Trust and the IIGCC has been buying volcanic ash simulations from Robert Napier’s Met Office—a trading arm of the Ministry of Defence—while selling fairy dust futures to Bullingdon cat-bond sponsors of Robert Napier’s $64 trillion Carbon Disclosure Project.

Volcanic Ash Cloud: MET Office Blamed For Unnecessary 6-Day Closure

Source: CAROLINE GAMMELL, DAVID MILLWARD, BRUNO WATERFIELD telegraph.co.uk



19 April 2010—The Met Office has been blamed for triggering the “unnecessary” six-day closure of British airspace which has cost airlines, passengers and the economy more than £1.5 billion.

The government agency was accused of using a scientific model based on “probability” rather than fact to forecast the spread of the volcanic ash cloud that made Europe a no-fly zone and ruined the plans of more than 2.5 million travelers in and out of Britain.

A senior European official said there was no clear scientific evidence behind the model, which air traffic control services used to justify the unprecedented shutdown.

Eleven major British airlines joined forces last night to publicly criticise Nats, the air traffic control center, over the way it interpreted the Met Office’s “very limited empirical data”.

Much of the blame was directed at the Met Office’s Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre (VAAC). It provided the initial warning, which triggered the European-wide ban via Eurocontrol, the air traffic control centre in Brussels.

Matthias Ruete, the European Commission’s director-general of transport, said air traffic authorities should not have relied on a single source of scientific evidence before imposing the widespread ban. He suggested the no-fly zone should have been restricted to a 20 to 30-mile limit around the volcano. “The science behind the model we are running at the moment is based on certain assumptions where we do not have clear scientific evidence,” he said.

“We don’t even know what density the cloud should be in order to affect jet engines. We have a model that runs on mathematical projections.

It is probability rather than actual things happening.”

Mr Ruete said the commission had to intervene to allow airlines to make test flights in order to check the VAAC data “to help us move on from the mathematical model”.

Of the 40 test flights across Europe, including a British Airways flight on Sunday, none found any evidence of ash in jet engines, windows or lubrication systems.

Airline Stocks Plunge

Engines of Lufthansa planes covered for protection from volcanic ash

19 April 2010—Travel experts say it could take up to a fortnight for flights to return to normal even after the ban is lifted. The ash began spewing from an Icelandic volcano on Wednesday and has drifted across most of Europe, shutting down airports as far south and east as Bulgaria.

The shutdown is estimated to have cost the European travel industry more than £1billion in cancelled flights and hotel rooms and the pilots' union Balpa warned that recession-hit airlines were 'staring bankruptcy in the face'.

The economic effect of the air ban was demonstrated this morning as shares in key airlines plummeted.

British Airways shares fell as much as six per cent, while budget rival Easyjet saw its stock plunge four per cent.

Furious airline officials yesterday shattered the safety consensus which has grounded their planes.

The German carrier Lufthansa said it was ‘scandalous’ that it was ordered on the basis of a single computer simulation of the effects of the ash cloud.

The executives believe the Met Office computer model is flawed and pointed to the 20 test flights completed safely over the weekend.

BA boss Mr Walsh boarded his own airline’s Boeing 747 test flight to demonstrate his belief in the safety of flying. His firm—still recovering from the effects of the cabin crew strike last month—is losing £25 million a day, around £1million an hour.

The Met Office defended its forecasts and said its own test flight had detected volcanic dust at levels which would cause aircraft damage.

Field McConnell: Letter Regarding Illegal Modifications to Boeing Airliners

Field McConnell
9223 50th Avenue South
Glyndon MN 56547

2 April, 2010

To Whom it may concern,

On 11 December, 2006, I reported to ALPA the existence of illegal modifications made to an undeterminable number of Boeing airliners. It was both my duty and obligation to make this report as mandated by Northwest Airlines Flight Operations Manual paragraph 9.1.1., Federal Aviation Regulation 121.533 and my Oaths of Office sworn by me in 3 separate capacities of service to the United States of America. I have not vacated those Oaths.

ALPA and Boeing did not respond appropriately to the reports of illegal modifications even though, unbeknownst to me, Boeing had paid a $615M 'settlement' to United States Department of Justice in June, 2006 related to illegal modifications and illegal export of Boeing airframes.

Civil Case 3:07-cv-24 [ Pro Se ] was filed by me on 27 February, 2007 in the United States District Court, District of North Dakota, in Fargo, North Dakota. Four days later Boeing acted responsibly and made public the existence of the Boeing Uninterruptible Autopilot. One day prior, Northwest Airlines violated the law by taking me off payroll without cause.

I sought the assistance of ALPA and was rebuffed. Though I had been wrongfully terminated and had asked ALPA to perform their contractual obligation, they did not. Specifically, when ALPA twice asked Northwest Airlines Counsel to produce a document critical to the issue, Northwest Airlines did not respond and ALPA did not pursue.

Polish and Russian officials said no-one had survived after the plane apparently hit trees as it approached Smolensk's airport in thick fog. Poland's army chief, central bank governor, MPs and leading historians were among more than 80 passengers.

They were flying in from Warsaw to mark 70 years since the Katyn massacre of thousands of Poles by Soviet forces.

Polish President Lech Kaczynski

The BBC's Adam Easton, in Warsaw, says the crash is a catastrophe for the Polish people.

He says Prime Minister Donald Tusk was reportedly in tears when he was told.
Mr Tusk, who runs the day-to-day business of government, has called an emergency meeting of ministers.

"I would like to emphasise that I support very close collaboration between our countries. I am convinced that such collaboration is in our common interest and also in the interest of the whole region.”-- Lech Kaczyński.

Field McConnell: If we’re going to talk about China I’ll continue to throw in the microphone to August, but China seems to play a very big part of this going back even to President GHW Bush and the other guy…

Rayelan Allan: Right:

Field: …he’s spent some time in China and I’m sure August will cover that. Also, General Shalaskavelli which was a huge embarrassment to everyone in the military, he was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs under Clinton, and Clinton of course hated the military and if you don’t believe me, you can read a book called Dereliction of Duty where on of the Air Force pilots that carried the brick for the president and it talks about his treasonous behavior. But China has a very tight connection to nine-eleven although and apparently they didn’t want to be seen at the forefront which is what you will see when you go looking around. French speaking Canada first up in Quebec and Gaetano and Montreal. You see the French-speaking Canadians you see the French, and if you look with a microscope or if you just keep looking with your own vision you’ll reach China and maybe August would like to share some news about China with your listeners?

General Shalikashvili and President Bill Clinton

Rayelan: Yes, August, let’s follow up on this China thread.

August Dunning: Well, I think there’s several threads, you had the Department of – Food and Drug Administration with very few inspectors, we’ve had over a thousand different events where poisonous toxic contaminated foods coming into our food supply, toys, our children, you know, supply. All sorts of things from China and they’re only inspecting one out of a thousand cargo containers. Okay, so there’s stuff coming in that we’re being exposed to all the time from China. Is it ignorance, is it just no control over there, or is it an operation, a subversion and a military operation just seeing what they can do.
