  Sky One - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sky One is one of British Sky Broadcasting's entertainment channels in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland.
On September 1 1993 Sky One was encrypted as part of the Sky Multichannels subscription package, and could no longer be viewed outside the UK and Ireland without exporting a box, or receiving it over cable.
More recently, Sky One Mix (since renamed Sky Mix and then Sky Two in October 2005) was launched as a "catch-up" channel, screening repeats of key Sky One programmes later in the same week.

 UK TV Overseas
Sky digital and Sky analogue are broadcast from two different satellites and each requires a totally different type of receiver.
There is no requirement to subscribe to Sky to buy a digibox or to receive the BBC though at the time of writing there is no way for new viewers to receive ITV, C4 and C5 without a subscription, even though these channels are free.
To be sure of having a reasonable number of potential users of this service Sky decided to subsidise the purchase cost of the digibox as long as you agree to the digibox being connected to your phone for 12 months.

The Sky+ box really is a top offering - you'll find you change your TV watching behaviour - no need to worry about setting the video recorder to keep up-to-date with a series, and with the drive holding 20 hours of shows, no more running out of tape.
Normal Sky installations only require one LNB and feed, but as Sky+ boxes have two tuners (to allow simultaneous viewing and recording of different channels), then two feeds from the dish are required.
The Sky+ box supports 'padding' or recording offset, which is a setting that allows you to add a number of minutes of recording time to the scheduled start and end times of programmes.

 Met Office: Single sky over Europe   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
In fact, flights across Europe are increasing at the rate of four to five per cent year on year, making it ever more challenging for air traffic controllers to ensure safety in our skies whilst keeping delays to a minimum.
Called the Single European Sky (SES) legislation, it aims to ensure a greater level of harmony in the way air space is used across Europe.
The implications are far-reaching for the aviation industry across Europe, particularly in the way meteorological services — which are absolutely central to air traffic control — are regulated.

 European air transport policies - the need for a truly "One Sky Europe"
The Assembly welcomes ECAC's and Eurocontrol's widening membership in central and eastern Europe, whose full participation in "One Sky Europe" is vital to the continent's future, including successful EU enlargement.
It is also essential that the countries of Central-Eastern Europe be fully incorporated into such a "One-Sky Europe", especially since their air space and airports will be increasingly used as they integrate economically with western Europe and as the EU prepares for enlargement.
Since Europe has a population of roughly 100 million elderly people, of whom about half may have various types of disabilities, the matter is of great considerable social importance.

But a number of EU countries, including France, Portugal and Greece, also have reservations about the idea of giving up national sovereignty over their airspace, and further discussions are planned on the issue.
The issue of creating a "single sky" for Europe is separate from the on-again, off-again "open skies" discussions between Britain and the United States over free-for-all flying across the Atlantic.
An "open skies" deal would open access at London's Heathrow Airport to more U.S. airlines and give British Airways the green light for a revenue-sharing agreement with American Airlines.
