ABSTRACTRumours of a reduced male proportion in offspring of fathers occupied as military air pilots wereconfirmed in two American studies in 1961 and 1987, but not in a German study in 1976. Data of theMedical Birth Registry of Norway were used to assess whether offspring of fathers occupied as military airpilots, had a deviant sex-ratio.Method. Results. Conclusion. NORSK SAMMENDRAGRykter om redusert andel sønner av fedre ansatt som flyvere i forsvaret, ble støttet i to amerikansk studierfra 1961 og 1987, men ikke i en tysk studie fra 1976. Data fra Medisinsk fødselsregister ble brukt til åundersøke om fødte, etter 16. svangerskapsuke, med fedre som flyvere i forsvaret i Norge, hadde en skjevkjønnsratio.Metode. Resultat. Konklusjon. Andel sønner til mannlige flyvere i forsvaret var signifikant redusert. Gruppen er imidlertidliten og resultatet bør bekreftes av andre studier.Flyvere i forsvaret var fedre til 65 barn. Andelen av gutter var 36,9%, i referansepopulasjon varandelen 51,4% med en relativ risiko 0,72 (95% CI 0,57–0,92).Studien var basert på alle fødte i Norge 1970–1993 med tilgjengelig folketellings-informasjon(ca. 1,2 millioner). Kohorten av flyvere ble etablert ut fra opplysninger om yrke og utdannelse i folketellingenefra 1970, 1980 og 1990. Referansepopulasjonen var alle resterende barn.Male proportion in offspring of men occupied as military air pilots was significantly reduced.However, the group is small and the result needs to be confirmed in other studies.Men working as military air pilots had 65 infants. The male proportion was 36.9%, the maleproportion in the reference population was 51.4% with a relative risk 0.72 (95% CI 0.57–0.92).The study was based on all births in Norway 1970–1993 for which linkage with populationcensus data could be obtained (about 1.2 million). Fathers' occupation was derived from census data of1970, 1980 and 1990 on job title and education. The reference population was the group that did not belongto the occupation under study.

Covid-19 was declared a pandemic by WHO on March 11, 2020, and President Joko Widodo through the Head of BNPB declared the COVID-19 outbreak a National Disaster. To limit people's mobility, the government issued a Regulation of the Minister of Transportation concerning Transportation Control in which operators of transportation facilities are obliged to supervise and ensure the implementation of physical distancing. One of the sectors affected by the COVID-19 pandemic is transportation, the government is looking for a solution to minimize this impact by providing incentive stimulus to airlines and also reducing the Air Passenger Service tariff by 20% to reducing aviation fuel prices by 10%, but the government's efforts have not succeeded. . The implementation of PPKM together with the Circular Letter of the Ministry of Transportation Number SE 88 of 2021 has reduced the interest of airplane passengers. This situation made the Lion Air airline reduce 8000 employees to pilots. However, pilots are applied to fly alternately by dividing into several groups. By using the k-means algorithm which is one of the clustering methods in data mining, the division of groups can be done by partitioning the data into several clusters. so that data with the same characteristics will be grouped into one cluster. The results of processing 730 lion air pilot data with three clusters resulted in 431 cluster 1 data, 200 data cluster 2 and 99 data cluster 3, from the three clusters dominated by the age of 20-35 years with a working period of 6-11 years but with an average different average flying hours and working hours.

REPArtee (Summer 1986). ; The Eastern Airlines Collection, 1927-2008 (bulk 1965-2008), consists of news clippings, press releases, newsletters, annual reports, monthly reports, correspondence, memoranda, photographs, slides, an early scrapbook (or day book), artifacts (promotional items) and audiovisual materials. This collection mainly provides insight into publicity and outreach efforts at Eastern Airlines, but also its history, charitable work, and day-to-day operations. The materials were accumulated by Carolyn Lee Wills, who worked in the Public Relations Department of Eastern's Southern Regional Office from 1965 until 1987. ; Carolyn Lee Wills graduated from Georgia State University, where she studied journalism, history and speech. She also participated in many extra-curricular activities including Panhellenic Council, Delta Zeta Sorority, and yearbook. Before she began her work at Eastern Airlines, she traveled extensively throughout Europe, Asia, North and South America, Jamaica, the Bahamas, and Bermuda.; In 1965, Wills joined Eastern Airlines as a Representative of Women's Activities. In this role, she interpreted the company's program to women by working in the fields of fashion, radio, television, public relations, and promotions. In 1971, Wills became made Regional Manager of Public Relations. Eastern Airlines closed its Atlanta offices in November 1973, but found it difficult to cover their public relations needs in Atlanta from their headquarters in Miami. Four months after closing, Wills was re-hired by Eastern to manage the Southern Division covering Atlanta to Tokyo. While employed by Eastern Airlines, Wills served on many boards including American Women in Radio and Television, Georgia State University Alumni Association, and was a national representative of Delta Zeta Sorority. In 1966, she married attorney Charles H. Wills. The earliest incarnation of Eastern Airlines was Pitcairn Aviation, founded in 1927, which was the U.S. Postal Service contractor flying from New York to Atlanta. In 1930, the carrier was sold to North American Aviation owner Clement Keys and was renamed Eastern Air Transport. It soon added passenger routes and adopted the name Eastern Air Lines. Throughout the pre-World War II era, Eastern dominated passenger travel and air transport along the Atlantic coast, including the introduction of one-day service from New York to Miami in 1932. Famed pilot Eddie Rickenbacker bought the company in 1938 and was closely identified with it until his 1963 retirement. During the air travel boom of the 1950s and 1960s, Eastern Airlines grew into one of the ""Big Four"" United States carriers, enhancing its status as the lead air travel carrier on domestic east coast flights with the introduction of air shuttle service in 1961. Shuttle service was created as an alternative to bus routes and included hourly flights from Atlanta to Washington D.C., New York, and Boston. During this time, Eastern Airlines also expanded international service to Mexico, Bermuda, Puerto Rico, and Canada. Under the leadership of former astronaut Frank Borman (hired as an advisor in 1969, he became Chief Executive Officer in 1975), Eastern Airlines enjoyed continued successes in the industry until the enactment of the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978.; Beginning with Eastern's early U.S. Postal Service government contract, the company had relied upon the regulated and protective policies governing the airline industry. Without government protection, Eastern's profits began to make a downward turn that eventually culminated in the selling of the company to Texas Air International, headed by Frank Lorenzo. Following deregulation, Lorenzo was able to purchase multiple airlines including Continental, Frontier, New York Air, and Eastern. To cut costs in the midst of declining profits, Lorenzo asked Eastern's union employees to take massive pay cuts in wages and benefits. Union workers refused to accept Lorenzo's demands and opted to go on strike. By claiming bankruptcy in 1989, Lorenzo was able to hire non-union workers to fill the jobs of striking employees. Lorenzo took his demands a step further when he asked the machinists' union to take a pay cut, which resulted in another strike that dealt the final blow to any hope that Eastern Airlines would recover lost profits. In 1991, Eastern Airlines was permanently grounded. Eastern's main hubs in Atlanta and Miami were taken over by various competitors and its concourses in New York and Newark were demolished.

The purpose of this research was to create a model that could potentially predict demand for military trained pilots in the airline industry. Specifically, this thesis sought to answer the research question addressing whether or not military trained pilots are currently more in demand or less in demand. The research questions were answered through a comprehensive literature review, collection of data relevant to airline industry growth, and regression analysis. The Aviation Continuation Pay Bonus, offered to all eligible Air Force aviators, has risen from $12,000/year to its current value of $25,000/year. With shrinking budgets, and ever increasing costs of war, it remains important to implement cost savings measures wherever possible. Airline hiring is one of the most significant factors in an Air Force pilot's decision to leave the service. By monitoring airline industry, pilot growth and military pilot retention rates, it is possible to determine the amount of military trained pilots needed in civilian industry. Armed with this information, Air Force official could potentially revise bonus offerings and pilot production rates, ultimately saving the service money. Results of this research show that variables such as the unemployment rate and September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks are significant in predicting airline industry growth. Also, despite current high pilot retention rates in the Air Force, the research model shows a slight increase in demand for military trained pilots from the years 2005 to 2006.
