Crash Raises Issue of India’s Aviation Oversight
MUMBAI, India — An Air India flight that crashed after landing in southern India on Saturday killed 158 people and raised questions about India’s oversight of a rapidly growing aviation industry. The immediate cause of the accident appeared to be pilot error: the Boeing 737 overshot the hilltop runway in Mangalore, one of India’s trickiest airports, on the southwestern coast. But pilots and safety experts said the error may have been compounded by weaknesses in India’s safety inspection regime, inadequate training and an airport that critics said should never have been built in such a difficult spot

For our first official LIP trip, my boyfriend and I (he’s Dave of Brightspark and About a Gadabout ) decided on a Australasian romp for the summer. It was an amazing experience, and six months later we returned to the UK with renewed enthusiasm, new perspectives and (mostly in Dave’s case) badass tans. Having LIP’d now in Australia, New Zealand and the UK, I’m going to round up some of the pros and cons of working in Australia and London.

The Airport
Listen: Brian Eno- “Music for Airports” It’s early in the morning. A steady stream of people flowing through the revolving doors, carrying or towing their suitcases behind, enter the airport to get on massive machines to fly to every corner of Earth. There is a calming effect
