Today I’m going to talk about D. B. Cooper, who hijacked Northwest Orient Airlines Flight 305…

Did you know? Formation Workshops (FoWo)
Did you know that formation workshops are an idea that came along the way and was not a standard at the beginning of EUROAVIA? Even though we are now familiar with these events and they keep our organization going, this was not always the case. At the 1999 AMEAC, the congress decided to create a…

Flat Earth conspiracy theories
I promised I would have not talked about why the Earth is round and not flat, but luckily, I’m a person with no principles nor respect for myself. The Flat Earth theory is the most old-school of conspiracy theories, like an old man when he gets to a new area of the city and says:…

A brief deny of Moon conspiracies
So, as an engineer (well, on my way to becoming one), my blood boils when people believe in conspiracy theories, and what it is worst is that most of them see themselves as superior and more intelligent creatures than the average person, like a pure irony of the universe. Then, I will use this time…

Did you know? First EMEAC and AMEAC
As the AMEAC in Naples that will take place at the beginning of October is approaching, have you ever wondered, when and where did the first AMEAC and EMEAC occur? Since the establishment of EUROAVIA, congresses have been an important part of the association. During congresses important decisions that shaped the future of our association…
Airport security after 9/11
Most of us don’t know how easy it was for people to arrive at the gate of the airports before the 11th of September 2001, as you could just arrive some minutes before your flight. Nowadays, you have to wait many minutes, if not hours, in line at the security check before boarding. It was…
