My sister did the Concorde-QEII trip in the late 90's. I'm still jealous that she's the only one of our siblings who's broken the sound barrier.

It's not designed to make sense. It's designed to make people curious as to which airline is the more "transparent," and hopefully click the article (and thereby load the associated advertisements).

Maybe an actual pilot can enlighten me, but I assume the procedure in such a scenario would be more involved than just "Turn back if < halfway, continue on if > halfway." If you have a headwind, for example, wouldn't it be better to turn back, even if you were slightly past the halfway point, distance-wise?

Can anyone point me to some screen shots of this new app, so I can appreciate how "state of the art," "stunning," and "trailblazing" it is?

Thanks for the clarification, and for the interesting article!

I think it was George Carlin who said to be treated as a real country you need to have at least a beer and an airline :) Seriously, I hope to visit Montenegro some day. I hear they make great wine.
