 Wings of desire | Special reports | Guardian Unlimited
About 70% of flights will be from just 25 airports, many of which, such as Heathrow, are already so congested they can't take any more planes.
However unpleasant the flight, or fearful the flier, it is still occasionally possible, gazing out across a silver wing to vistas unglimpsed 100 years ago, to feel a sudden wonder at nature, and at the technological achievements of man.
Flight International magazine may pronounce that "designers will be dealing with a small architectural project.

 Flight 714 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Flight 714 (Vol 714 pour Sydney), first published in 1968, is the twenty-second of The Adventures of Tintin, a series of classic comic-strip albums, written and illustrated by Belgian writer and illustrator Hergé, featuring young reporter Tintin as a hero.
While their flight makes a refueling stop in Jakarta, they unexpectedly meet their old friend Piotr Skut, who is now the chief pilot for eccentric millionaire Laszlo Carreidas.
Karaboudjan, an avant garde metal project (one of Dan Swanö's many projects), released a demo, Sbrodj, which is inspired from the Tintin stories.

"Flight 714" is sort of the generic Adventure of Tintin, with a little bit of everything that.
Volume 7: The Castafiore Emerald (1963), Flight 714 for Sydney (1968), Tintin and the Picaros (1976).
Flight 714 for Sydney is a departure from the quintessentially clean line style and the artwork is a little more cluttered, but again, for me it works, for example by giving more detail to Haddock's rich store of expressions.

 Flight Crew Research Program at NIOSH
Over 198,000 U.S. flight personnel work in commercial aircraft cabins with potential exposure to cosmic ionizing radiation, alterations of circadian rhythm from travel across time zones, cabin pollutants such as tobacco smoke and ozone, physical demands such as prolonged standing, and psychological demands such as job stress.
Studies are underway to characterize exposures in the aircraft cabin environment and to examine a variety of health effects in flight attendants and pilots.
These studies will help scientists to determine if flight crews’ working environments put them at risk of adverse health effects, and if so, what measures would be needed to reduce that risk.

 Flight 714: title translation - Tintinologist.org Forums - (3)
Flight 714 to Sydney doesn't sound very good English to me. Like you said Jock, maybe the English translators thought it was an improvement to just be Flight 714.
This is the final call for Qantas Flight 714 to Sydney...” So MT and LLC used “to Sydney” rather than “for”.
