 During the week November 13th - 19th, we asked those pilots who take a camera to work to snap a few photos and share them with us. Even though it was short notice, many forum users rose to the occasion and sent us a little of what they see everyday "on the job".
From the cannibalistic North Sentinel Island in the Andaman chain to
erupting volcanoes in Russia and many (over-water) points in between. It's great to see the variety of flying that members of the APC forum do. Thanks for sharing - and look for "another Week of APC" soon.

 Pilots are a distinct segment of the general population. In addition to flying skills, pilots are selected for their personalities and for a distinct "pilot persona." These characteristics make them safer pilots.

 BMI stands for Body Mass Index and it is considered a reliable indicator of total body fat, which is related to the risk of disease and death. The score measures body weight corrected for height and it is valid for both men and women. It is widely used in both research and clinical settings because measurements of height and weight are easy, quick, and relatively noninvasive. But BMI does have some limits. Obesity indices cannot be used to distinguish between excessive weight produced by musculature, adipose tissue or water retention.

Carbon Trading - Coming Soon? |
Imagine trying to fly American Airlines from Frankfurt to Chicago and
being delayed because AA needs to purchase some carbon “Allowances”
from easyJet. Or, your British Airways flight from London to Beijing is
cancelled because construction of a solar energy provider in South
Africa is delayed. Think this is farfetched? Try reality in four
years!
If the EU has its way, the European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU
ETS) will incorporate aviation into the emission trading program by
2011, with all flights into the EU under the program by 2012.
