    For Bangladesh, the readymade garment export industry has been the proverbial goose that lays the golden eggs for over fifteen years now. The sector now dominates the modern economy in export earnings, secondary impact and employment generated. The events in 1998 serve to highlight the vulnerability of this industry to both internal and external shocks on the demand and supply side. Given the dominance of the sector in the overall modern economy of Bangladesh, this vulnerability should be a matter of some concern to the policymakers in Bangladesh. Although in gross terms the sector’s contributions to the country’s export earnings is around 74 percent, in net terms the share would be much less partially because the backward linkages in textile have been slow to develop. The dependence on a single sector, no matter how resilient or sturdy that sector is, is a matter of policy concern. We believe the policymakers in Bangladesh should work to reduce this dependence by moving quickly to develop the other export industries using the lessons learned from the success of apparel exports. Support for the apparel sector should not be reduced. In fact, another way to reduce the vulnerability is to diversify the product and the market mix. It is heartening to observe that the knit products are rapidly gaining share in overall garment exports as these products are sold in quota-free markets and reflect the strength of Bangladeshi producers in the fully competitive global apparel markets…

    In today’s world, flying is generally an extraordinarily safe experience. Within the last five years, only one fatal plane crash has occurred. This is an impressive record considering that more than 87,000 flights can be found in United States airspace on any given day (NATCA). However, air safety has not always been as advanced as it is currently. Past accidents and collisions have triggered crucial safety improvements over the years. The 1956 plane crash over the Grand Canyon was a major catalyst for change as it caused the creation the Federal Aviation Agency.…

    For many years the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Flight Standards Service has distributed public information in many ways. Technology has now allowed them to consolidate and simplify access to information for their inspectors, and now for the public. Significantly, the FAA has merged three major handbooks used by Flight Standards inspectors and available to the public into one. The electronic directive FAA Order 8900.1, Flight Standards Information Management System (FSIMS), supersedes FAA Order 8300.10, Airworthiness Inspector 's Handbook; FAA Order 8400.10, Air Transportation Operations Inspectors Handbook; and FAA Order 8700.1, General Aviation Operations Inspectors Handbook. Among the user-friendly features of FSIMS are an efficient structure and navigation function, advanced search capabilities, a comprehensive index, document libraries, a recent document window, the ability to sign-up for updates to FSIMS, and other areas of interest.…

Euro-Air, a major European-based commercial airline, operated daily service to its European hub from fourteen cities in North America and onward service to more than 300 locations in 90 countries around the world.

    I was surprised to know that the guy, who booked his flight at the last minutes, was happy to pay higher price in coach than in business or first class. But that is how the airline industry does to make up for the profits with their new “simplified low-cost pricing.” It's also the sign that major carriers like AA, Delta, and UA are being forced to cut some of their expensive prices as rival discount airlines rapidly expand. So far, the price-cutting is still happening only in certain cities, and not nationwide. They are doing that technique to attract customers from other airlines and to create customer loyalty among regular flyers. Meanwhile, the airline needs certain revenues to cover its fixed costs. By offering different prices for the same flight, it enables them to charge a high price for the flexible tickets, and still serve the passengers with a low willingness to pay. Overall, airline industry still make a profit with less empty seats and just a few customers have to end up with high-sky prices.…
