| Сотрудники ФСБ "наслужили родине" на 20 лет заключения
|
 По версии следствия, полковник ФСБ Сергей Михайлов в 2011 году через посредников передал сотрудникам ФБР сведения об оперативно-разыскной деятельности по делу основателя и гендиректора процессинговой компании Chronopay Павла Врублевского, которого в США считают киберпреступником. Эти данные полковник Михайлов и его подчиненный получили, участвуя в оперативной разработке господина Врублевского, который обвинялся в организации DDoS-атаки на платежную систему Assist в июле 2010 года, из-за которой граждане несколько дней не могли приобрести электронные билеты "Аэрофлота". По версии следствия, собрав сведения, относящиеся к гостайне, полковник Михайлов записал их на компакт-диск, который передал майору Докучаеву, а тот — сотруднику "Лаборатории Касперского" Руслану Стоянову.

| Southwest Blames Mechanics' Union for Grounded Planes and Canceled Flights
|
 Southwest Airlines luv is having an "operational emergency." The airline has been forced to cancel hundreds of flights over the past five days because of mechanical problems that have grounded a substantial portion of its fleet. In a statement released Tuesday, COO Mike Van de Ven said the company had "experienced an unprecedented number of out-of-service aircraft" and went on to suggest that the problems lie with employees that are members of the Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal Association (AMFA) -- with whom the airline has been negotiating for six years. Van de Ven added that the increase in mechanical problems occurred "just days after our last negotiations session with AMFA," and that they took place in "four specific maintenance locations despite no change in our maintenance programs, no changes in leadership, and no changes in our policies and procedures." He continued that "AMFA has a history of work disruptions, and Southwest has two pending lawsuits against the union. We will be investigating this ...

| Latam Airlines expected to have a 51% controlling interest in Latam Brazil
|
| Chile's LATAM Airlines Group SA has asked Brazil's antitrust regulator Cade to boost its voting stake in LATAM Airlines Brazil to 51%, formalizing a controlling interest in Brazil's No. 2 airline that for years it was unable to achieve because of local restrictions.

| UK expands no-fly zone for drones around airports
|
| The no-fly zone for drones around British airports is being extended to five kilometres in an attempt to avert disruptions like the December groundings of flights at Gatwick Airport, officials said Wednesday. The Department for Transport said the zone will widen on March 13 from the current one kilometre. Officials are also working on new legislation to give police more powers to stop and search people suspected of using drones maliciously. Transport Secretary Chris Grayling said people who fly drones near airports "are not only acting irresponsibly, but criminally, and could face imprisonment." More than 100,000 travellers were stranded or delayed before Christmas after drone sightings near Gatwick, which is Britain's second-busiest airport. UK aviation authorities say 125 near-misses between drones and aircraft were reported in 2018, up from 93 in 2017.
