Northwest Airlines to end Alaska freight operations
From: KTUU, Friday, April 24, 2009
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Northwest Airlines will cease freighter operations in Anchorage at the end of the year, the company said Friday.
Delta Airlines recently acquired Northwest and confirms the announcement will eliminate 40 of their nearly 80 cargo jobs in Alaska.
The airline cites the old age of their aircraft, as well as a slowdown in the economy as reasons for the termination of service.
A spokesperson for Delta says the airline will do its best to transfer employees to other locations.
Delta will continue passenger service into Anchorage, and cargo service will still be available on those flights.

Air freight drops as global trade siezes up — UK
From: Telegraph
BAA, which runs Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted airports, said the number of tonnes of air cargo declined by 15.9pc in January, on top of a 15.1pc fall in December. The airport operator said cargo volumes are dropping at all UK airports as a “direct result of the global economic downturn”. It said freight volumes in the whole of 2008 were down 1.4pc compared to 2007, largely due the sustained drop at the end of the year.
Farewell, Northwest: Delta Takeover is official
It’s a done deal: Delta owns Northwest
Company officials signed merger papers within hours of a Justice Department OK.
Finally, it’s official: Northwest Airlines is Delta’s.
More than eight decades after it was founded, Minnesota’s airline giant became part of Delta Air Lines on Wednesday. Hours after federal regulators cleared the merger for takeoff, the companies consummated the deal creating the world’s largest airline. …
On Wednesday, the IAM’s Robert Roach, general vice president, said federal approval of the merger came as “no surprise” after “eight years of disastrous economic decisions by the Bush administration.”
The merger connects Northwest’s network in Asia with Delta’s strength in Europe and growing presence in Africa and Latin America.
The carrier will maintain Northwest’s domestic hubs in the Twin Cities, Detroit and Memphis as well as Delta’s hubs in Atlanta, Cincinnati, New York and Salt Lake City.
“The merger makes even more sense as we face an economic recession because we can capture $2 billion of benefits annually that neither airline could accomplish alone,” Anderson and Bastian said in a memo Wednesday to employees.
Delta’s NWA Takeover Not a Done-Deal Yet
From: Star & Tribune
Northwest Airlines and Delta Air Lines late Monday announced their plan to merge, a deal meant to create the world’s largest airline and the boldest attempt yet to set a new course for U.S. aviation. …
The two airlines are submitting the deal for antitrust review now in the hope that it can be completed before a new president takes office. U.S. Rep. Jim Oberstar, D-Minn., intends to fight the merger by holding hearings in the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, which he leads.

If Delta and Northwest are going to create the world’s largest airline, they’ll first have unions to cajole, politicians to placate, and antitrust regulators to convince.
Two of Northwest’s largest unions immediately declared their opposition.
Most importantly, the airlines will need antitrust approval from federal regulators. In 2001, an attempted merger of United Airlines and US Airways fell apart amid antitrust concerns. Executives at Delta and Northwest said they are aiming to close their deal by the end of this year, which would be before the end of the merger-friendly Bush administration.
Study: Flowers Losing Smell
From: Live Science
Spring’s bloom may not smell so sweet anymore, as pollutants from power plants and automobiles destroy flowers’ aromas, a new study suggests.
The finding could help explain why some pollinators, particularly bees, are declining in certain parts of the world.
Researchers at the University of Virginia created a mathematical model of how the scents of flowers travel with the wind. The scent molecules produced by the flowers readily bond with pollutants such as ozone, which destroys the aromas they produce.
So instead of wafting for long distances with the wind, the flowery scents are chemically altered. Essentially, the flowers no longer smell like flowers.
Delta Airlines Eager to Gobble Up NWA
From: Star & Tribune, 4/10/08
Delta Air Lines pilot union leaders will meet today to consider new contract terms that would apply strictly to the Delta pilots. If the proposal is approved, it likely would allow Delta and Northwest Airlines to announce a merger as early as next week, two people familiar with the situation said Wednesday.
No similar contract offer is going to Northwest’s pilots this week.

Large Portions of Boeing Aircraft Made Overseas
From: Business Week
Boeing’s Audacious Allies
Supporters of the planemaker cry foul when it loses a U.S. military contract to a foreign rival, but 70% of its commercial Dreamliner is made overseas
When is globalization a bad word? To Boeing (BA) backers, it’s when the competition—a consortium led by European Aeronautic Defence & Space (EADS) and Northrop Grumman (NOC)—wins the battle for a lucrative U.S. Air Force contract for airborne-refueling planes. Ever since the Air Force announced its decision on Feb. 29, Americans from Seattle to Capitol Hill have railed about lost jobs and the risks of foreign-made military assets.
But what about when Boeing wins a big contract? You don’t hear many complaints then, despite the fact that large portions of the parts and labor in its commercial planes come from overseas—70% of Boeing’s new 787 Dreamliner and 60% of other models are made outside the U.S. Even many of Boeing’s military planes have many foreign parts in them.
One in 4 Teen Girls Has a Sexually Transmitted Disease—Ages 14-19
From: U.S. News & World Report
TUESDAY, March 11 (HealthDay News) — More than 3 million teenaged girls have at least one sexually transmitted disease (STD), a new government study suggests.
The most severely affected are African-American teens. In fact, 48 percent of African-American teenaged girls have an STD, compared with 20 percent of white teenaged girls.
“What we found is alarming,” Dr. Sara Forhan, from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said during a teleconference Tuesday. “One in four female adolescents in the U.S. has at least one of the four most common STDs that affects women.”
Oberstar: NWA/Delta Merger Would Create Too Much Consolidation
From: Star Tribune, 1/16/08
U.S. Rep. Jim Oberstar, D-Minn., said Wednesday that he doesn’t favor any mergers now because “we have an appropriate balance of competition in the aviation market.”
Oberstar, chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, met with two Northwest executives Tuesday about the carrier’s merger talks with Delta and the effects of a Delta-Northwest deal.
“We did not deregulate aviation in 1978 to create consolidation of the industry, but rather to expand competition,” Oberstar told reporters Wednesday.
Asked whether he would oppose a Delta-Northwest deal, Oberstar said, “I don’t think mergers are in the best public interest, and that includes this one.”
While a merger might increase competitors’ flights into the Twin Cities, a Delta acquisition of Northwest likely would mean the closing of the Northwest headquarters in Eagan….

Delta lets the guessing continue on merger talks with Northwest/United
Delta Air Lines refused to show its hand after its board of directors apparently met Friday to consider a management request to authorize merger talks with United and Northwest airlines.
A spokesman for the Atlanta airline declined to confirm either the meeting or that it was to consider a request from Delta Chief Executive Richard Anderson to begin formal talks with the two airlines, as was widely reported Thursday.
“Delta has a longstanding policy not to comment on board meeting dates or agendas,” said spokesman Kent Landers. …
Even if formal talks are approved, it’s far from certain a merger will follow — or that a proposed deal could survive regulatory scrutiny or possible opposition from politicians or consumer advocates.
Either combination would create the world’s largest airline and mark the biggest merger ever among two U.S. carriers.
Anderson arrived at Delta on Sept. 1 saying he had no plans to pursue a merger. But in recent months, amid souring industry conditions and slumping airline stock prices, he has made no secret he’s open to a deal if Delta is in the driver’s seat.
