Pytanie #1:

Has anyone been or worked with a motor carrier investigator?

I'm trying to find out more info about the job... It's a state civil service position (but federally funded), and I'm just curious if anyone has any insight or advice. I'm a little concerned about safety because it seems to be a non-peace officer non-armed job, but some people seem to be saying you are escorted by a local or state police officer? Specifically I'd probably be working down in New York City. Thanks in advance!
Yeah that's the civil service test I took -- I'm just trying to find out more like candidly about what the job is about since it usually turns out to be different than the civ service formal descriptions from what I've experienced. I appreciate your comments on it, officers, it's strange that different states handle the same task differently like that.

Pytanie #2:

Pet Owners. What do you think of the first ever Pet Airlines? Details inside->?

Paws up: All-pet airline hits skies

NEW YORK – One trip for their Jack Russell terrier in a plane's cargo hold was enough to convince Alysa Binder and Dan Wiesel that owners needed a better option to get their pets from one city to another.

On Tuesday, the first flight for the husband-and-wife team's Pet Airways, the first-ever all-pet airline, took off from Republic Airport in Farmingdale, N.Y.

All commercial airlines allow a limited number of small pets to fly in the cabin. Others must travel as checked bags or in the cargo hold — a dark and sometimes dangerous place where temperatures can vary wildly.

Binder and Wiesel used their consulting backgrounds and business savvy to start Pet Airways in 2005. The last four years have been spent designing their fleet of five planes according to new four-legged requirements, dealing with FAA regulations and setting up airport schedules.

The two say they're overwhelmed with the response. Flights on Pet Airways are already booked up for the next two months.

Pet Airways will fly a pet between five major cities — New York, Washington, Chicago, Denver, and Los Angeles. The $250 one-way fare is comparable to pet fees at the largest U.S. airlines.

For owners the big difference is service. Dogs and cats will fly in the main cabin of a Suburban Air Freight plane, retooled and lined with carriers in place of seats. Pets (about 50 on each flight) will be escorted to the plane by attendants that will check on the animals every 15 minutes during flight. The pets are also given pre-boarding walks and bathroom breaks. And at each of the five airports it serves, the company has created a "Pet Lounge" for future fliers to wait and sniff before flights.

The company will operate out of smaller, regional airports in the five launch cities, which will mean an extra trip for most owners dropping off their pets if they are flying too. Stops in cities along the way means the pets will take longer to reach a destination than their owners.

A trip from New York to Los Angeles, for example, will take about 24 hours. On that route, pets will stop in Chicago, have a bathroom break, play time, dinner, and bunk for the night before finishing the trip the next day.

Pytanie #3:

After April 1st 2009 Ryan air will no longer transport unacompanied passangers under 18.? Is this true?

Starting April 1 Ryan air will no longer allow 14-17 year old to travel unacompanied. This means that all passangers under 18 after April 1 2009 will have to have an adult passanger with them on every flight.

Easyjet will still allow passangers as young as 14 to travel alone. Air lingus will still let children as young as 12 travel alone without supervision. British airways will also allow passangers as young as 12 travel without a parent or escort service.

How will other European and north American airlines respond to Ryan airs policy? I think Ryan airs new policy that will go affect on April 1st is a little too extreme. Will other European airlines end up getting the child passangers who are now going to be too young to fly Ryan air or will other airlines raise their flying alone age to 18?

I'm way past age 18. When I was a teen in the 1990s I flew alone to visit family.

No north American carrier has this strict of a policy that Ryan air is going to adopt in April 2009.
Here is the new policy from Ryan Airs website:

Children under the age of 14 years must always be accompanied on the same reservation by a passenger over 16 years. AS AND FROM THE 1st APRIL 2009 ALL CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 18 YEARS MUST ALWAYS BE ACCOMPANIED ON THE SAME RESERVATION.
On a different section of the Ryan air terms website I found this:

Children under the age of 14 years must always be accompanied on the same reservation by a passenger over 16 years. AS FROM THE 1st APRIL 2009 ALL CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 16 YEARS MUST ALWAYS BE ACCOMPANIED ON THE SAME RESERVATION.

I called the one pound per minute telephone number and a ryan air agent asked her supervisor. Her supervisor told her that this new policy is correct.
