Talking airline tech

I am off to interview Jim Peters CTO of airline technology company SITA tomorrow. Will be interesting to pose some questions that frustrate me as a passenger - like why do airlines still insist on paper tickets and is letting people use mobile phones on a plane really a good idea? We should have something up from the interview later this week and maybe a news story sooner than that if they say anything juicy. The whole laptop Sony battery issue could be another interesting topic - why if they were dangerous to ban for a while were they not dangerous to ban forever? We will keep you posted.
