Shotgun Recoil Formula Help Pleaes - Excel
Excel Forum
Hello I have a request and it might seems a little different but if somebody could help me
Out by making a excel sheet with this formula if it can be done I sure would appreciate
It ok here goes I am copying this out of a book
Recoil energry in ft.lbs.= (Bw Mv + 4700 Pw)2
64.348 Gw
Where Gw = the weight of the gun in pounds
Bw = weight of the ejecta (shot and wads) in pounds
Pw = powder weight in pounds
Mv = muzzle velocity in feet per second
Example Our Shooter has a 8lb Target gun with a load using 18.0 grs. Of Clays, a Wad
Weighing 33.0 gr. Shot charge of 1 1/8 oz and giving 1200 f/s muzzle velocity.
First we must convert the ejecta weight to lbs. (1 1/8 oz = 492.0 gr.) Dividing grains by 7000 converts to pounds.
Gw = 8lb
Bw = 492.0 + 33.0 = 525 = .075 lb
_________ ___
7000 7000
Pw = 18 = .003 lb
Mv = 1200 Ft/sec
Substituting the numbers in the formula we find the
Recoil energry of the shooters load = [ (.075 x 1200)+(4700 x .003)]2 =21.05 ft/lbs.
64.348 x 8
I hope this makes since I think what I need is some input cells intering the data in like the
Weight of the gun, shot weight and wad, powder weight in pounds, veloctity in feet per second
And then do the math and it shoot give me a total

Vba If Statements Based On Weight And Fee Calculation - Excel
Excel Forum
I am trying to find out how i can set up if statements based on parameter values. For example;
My function will be "Shippingfees" based on the parameter weight
Shipping fee is calculated based on weight.
If it is 1 pound, shipping fee is $2
If it is 2 pounds, shipping fee is $4
After two pounds, fee is increasing by $1 for every pound. But if the weight is 2.3 pounds this will still be based on 3 pounds. So it actually means if weight>2 and weight<=3 fee will add up one more dollar.
If it is , let 's say 5.3 pounds, then the fee will be 8 dollars ($4 + $1 + $1 + $1 + $1) [because it will be recognized as 6 pounds]
My question is how can i set up this in vba?
I'd very much appreciate if anyone could help.

Weight Chart Again - Please Help - This Is Driving Me Mad - Excel
Excel Forum
Hello all,
This is a query relating to the Weight chart I have been trying to do - I'm not sure if anyone has any answers, but people stopped replying to my last topic on this, I think because it was too long to read -
I have a Weight Chart which allows me to input a person's weight each day in Stones, pounds and ounces. With the help from the experts on this site, I have managed to get the spreadsheet to tell me how much weight has been lost to date from the starting weight.
However, what I would like to do now is to calculate how much weight is left to lose based on a target weight. I have been trying to work this out for days and it isn't quite working and I can't for the life of me work out why - below is what I have done:
E3 = Target weight (stones)
F3 = Target weight (pounds)
G3 = Target weight (ounces)
E4:E4: is current weight (stones)
F4:F4: is current weight (pounds)
G4:G4: is current weight (ounces)
This seems to work for the stones and pounds, but the ounces aren't working - but this could be because I haven't got the formulas correct for stones and pounds. Can anyone help?
That said- I would welcome any help that would give me the answer I want, even if it is nothing like what I have above.

Adding A Sumif To An Existing Formula - Excel
Excel Forum
Hello all,
I am not sure if I am posting in the correct place... I teach weightlifting in a school system and would like to chart and grade students based on performance. Ultimately I have created a range of grades applied over a range of pounds lifted. The issue that I am stumbling over I believe is the addition of another IF function. I would like to add points to grades for students that fall withing a certain body weight range. For example if a student is under 115 pounds body weight, I would like to add 15 points to his grade (kind of a curve). Once I figure out the rule I can then go in and complete the total function. The current working formula that I have (example bench press) is:
Formula says that if he lifts over 194 pounds he receives a 100 for a grade down to a 69 if he lifts less than 104 pounds. E96 represents his raw lifting score. While not listed in the formula, I do have a box designated for body weight. For this student the box for body weight is K94.
With that being said, this particular student weighs only 112 (K94) pounds and he lifted 115 pounds (E96). Based on my grading scale he received only a 76 for a grade.
So, how can I add points to a grade: 15 points if body weight is under 115 pounds, 10 points if under 130 pounds, and 5 points if under 145 pounds. No bonus points if body weight is over 145. These are examples.... Again, I am just learning how to use EXCEL and would like some clarification.

Need Help With Formula For Weekly Value - Excel

I have no problems with the formulas for the Total Pounds Lost and the

Weight Chart Please See Page 3 For Final Query - Excel
Excel Forum
Hello everyone -
I am trying to create a weight chart, which works in stones, pounds and ounces. My first query is that each time I enter the weight in for each day, I need it to deduct 1ib 4oz from the weight I enter. At present I have seperate columns for stones, pounds and ounces. However, if I try to do a simple lbs minus 4 it doesn't work, because sometimes the pounds are less than four - so instead of taking the stone column down by one and then deducting the remaining pounds, it just puts the pounds columns to -3 or similar. The same applies to the oz columns - good old imperial eh!
Also, I would like my table to work out weight lost over a period of time - so, I have my starting weight at the top and then I want my most recent weight to be taken from the starting weight, leaving weight lost - I can't get this to work either. Is there a way to make it so that the calculation uses the most recent weight entry and does so automatically?
If anyone has any solutions to these queries, I would be very grateful...as I have to caculate this for a number of people and it would be much quicker if it did it all automatically upon entering the most recent weight.

I have a table of conversions.
for example:
3.60 pounds in cell a1. cell a2 is to take the .60 pounds remaining in cell a1 and convert that to ounces, 9.6.
When this happens I want the pounds to only display the whole number rounded down.
so: 3 pounds in cell a1 and 9.6 ounces in cell a2.
The problem is when I used the rounddown function in a1 to make it display the whole number, cell a2 reads it as 0 becuase theres nothing left to convert. When I used the format cells function to display 0 decimals it rounds it up sometimes. I always need it rounded down. What should I do?

Is There A Better Way To Do This - Excel
Excel Forum
I import a csv file into Excel. I use the file to create a dashboard for executive management. We recently picked up a customer that ships in metric weights as opposed to pounds. For this customer, I need to change the weight field in the Excel spreadsheet to pounds. I wrote a macro that runs after the import is done. The macro looks like this:
For i to LR
If Customer# = MB then
End if
The variable i is the row number initialized to row 2
The variable LR is the last row which I calculate prior to starting the for loop
The weight is actual shown as cells(5,i).value and customer# is configured the same way.
The problem is that there are 25000 records in the spreadsheet and it is taking over 10 minutes to sort through them all.
Due to a constraint in an archaic ERP system, there is no way to convert the information prior to import. The system does not use any qualifiers for weight, it is simply a number(yes I know that it is stupid, but I have to deal with it for about 6 more months and then it is gone).
I need this conversion for a pivot table, summary spreadsheet and graphs.

Pounds And Ounces, Fractional Custom Formatting??? - Excel

I am trying to convert a fractional measurement of lbs into pounds and a fractional ounces. For example I want to convert 69 1/8 to a cell that says "4 lbs 5 1/8 oz" The conversion itself isn't a problem, I have a cell that finds the pounds and a cell that finds the oz's, but I can't figure out how to join them. Using either CONCATENATE or & I get "4 lb 5.125 oz" Can someone please tell me how to do this. I've bee trying to play with custom formats but that hasn't worked either, but I honestly never use that so it may be lack of knowledge on my part trying to use custom formats.

Formula To Subtract Pounds & Ounces - Excel
Excel Forum
I need to build a spreadsheet that subtracts from a cumulative weight recorded in pounds and ounces. For example, in a fishing tournament, a person has 5 fish to weigh. They place their fish one at a time in a bag hanging from a digital scale that reads in pounds and ounces, and record the cumulative weight as the fish are added. We want to know what the total weight is of all 5 fish, but also what the individual weight is of each of the 5 fish.
The easy way to do it is to place the first fish in the bag and record the weight, then place the second fish in the bag with the first fish and record the cumulative weight of the 2 fish together. Continue this until all 5 fish are in the bag, and record the final total weight.
Then, to get the weights of each individual fish, the first weight is as it is, the second fish weight would be Cumulative Weight recorded for Fish 2 minus the weight of Fish 1. To get the weight of Fish 3, you would subtract the Cumulative Weight for the first 3 fish from the Cumulative Weight of the first 2 fish, and so on.
For example:
Weight of the Bag with:
1 Fish: 1-lb 2-oz
2 Fish: 2-lb 14-oz
3 Fish: 5-lb 6-oz
4 Fish: 9-lb 7-oz
5 Fish: 11-lb 9-oz.
We can subtract the cumulative weights to determine the individual weights of each fish added to the bag and know that:
Fish 1 is 1-lb 2-oz
Fish 2 is 1-lb 12-oz
Fish 3 is 2-lb 8-oz
Fish 4 is 4-lb 1-oz
Fish 5 is 2-lb 2-oz
Easy to do in my head, or on paper, but not so easy to do in Excel because it's pounds and ounces, which is how the digital scale reads out. But, when you're doing this for 20-30 fishermen, it's not that easy to do it on paper.
Anyone with any suggestions for forumlas to make this happen?

Volume/weight Unit Conversion - Excel
Excel Forum
The attachment is part of a workbook I did for my sister in law, a Boston chef. She wanted a workbook that would standardize the format of 100-odd recipes and capture ingredient cost. She agreed that all recipes would measure weighed ingredients in grams and volume ingredients in ml.
The Ingredients tab has a formula in col K to convert purchase measures by weight (volume) to the cost of recipe measures by weight (volume). It basically tries a weight conversion, and if that fails, a volume conversion, and if that fails, just uses unity.
Things were going fine until she decided that some items she measures by weight but buys by volume, and vice versa.
Columns C:F were initially created as a convenience to convert measures in existing recipes. Col C contains ingredient density (g/ml), and D:F convert that to g/cup, g/Tbs, and g/Tsp. So all of the information is there to convert volume measures to weight measures and vice versa. But I cannot get my brain around how to do it, and it now recoils just looking at the d*** formula.
So, given the data in cols D:F, I need a formula in col K to convert purchase measure (in any units) and recipe measure (in any units) to recipe measure costs.
Thanks in advance.

Formulas Backwards? - Excel
Excel Forum
Forgive me if this is too simple, I am new to using spreadsheets.
I have made a spreadsheet to calculate the weight and center of gravity for aircraft. In one of the cells, one enters the number of imperial gallons of fuel and the next cell has this formula to convert the gallons into pounds: =PRODUCT(B11*7.2). That number is then summed with the other weights to achieve the total weight.
Sometimes, when the aircraft may exceed its maximum certified weight, it is more useful to insert the maximum possible weight in the fuel column, and have this number divided to give the number of gallons.
Is it possible to configure the spreadsheet so that it will work either way: if you enter a number in the gallons cell, it will multiply it and show the weight in the weight cell, but if you instead enter a number in the weight cell it will divide it and show the gallons in the gallons cell? Kind of a two way formula, depending on which cell you choose to put the fixed value in.
Thanks for your ideas.

It has been a while since I've made a big pot of chili, so I thought that would be a great project for the return of winter. I looked at a few recipes, but none caught my eye so I just went to the store and grabbed a few things to add to the 2 packages of stewing beef that had taken up long term residence in the freezer.
As TV chef Michael Smith says, a recipe is just a beginning. Close the book, use some creativity and get cooking.
I used our Saint Patties Day Chili as a sort of basis and then had some fun. You can refer to it if you want some actual instructions. I used a couple of pounds of stewing beef, a pound of lean ground beef and a half pound of bacon. Yes, bacon! I figure if Voodoo Donut in Portland can put bacon on donuts, I can use it in chili! Oh, and yes I have had their maple and bacon donuts and they aren't as gross as you might think!
I used 2 1/2 large onions, finely chopped and I omitted the peppers, because I forgot to buy them!
1 beer – Steelback Draft
Half a mason jar of home made turkey stock.
1 can small Mexican beans. Never seen them before thought they might be good.
1 can seasoned smashed tomatoes, with another in reserve just in case.
1 can tomato paste
Spices are pretty much the same as before.
I wanted to use some chipotles in adobo sauce, as I love the smoky taste, but they didn't have any.
Otherwise I pretty much followed my own recipe. Ok, I cooked stuff in the same order! So far, it tastes awesome with just the right amount of heat for the family.
It really is that easy to throw something interesting together. While the ability to pair flavours comes with practice, the only way you get that practice is to actually try. So find a recipe you like and try making some substitutions, you might just find that you love your creation!

RESTAURANT REVIEW: Green Truck Pub in Savannah
Green Truck Pub:
The Busiest Little Restaurant in Savannah
If you've ever been to Savannah, you have seen her tenacious, Spanish moss-draped beauty, polka-dotted with hot pink azaleas. You have also seen her largest import: tourists. They come by the motorcoach-load to eat at Historic District institutions like Paula Deen's The Lady and Sons and Mrs. Wilkes' Dining Room, whose slogan says it all: "Just look for the line of people on West Jones Street." A few blocks below Jones Street, where the ratio of locals to tourists abruptly reverses and the trolleys turn around, a sit down neighborhood restaurant scene simply didn't exist until two years ago.
Then Josh Yates rolled into town with his jadeite Chevy.
Josh didn't hire a dishwasher. He didn't plan to make money for at least a year. With the wary expectations of a newborn restaurateur in a frail economy, he assured the bank his wife would keep her day job and signed a lease on a defunct seafood restaurant. About the first thing he did was throw away a piece of rotten meat left behind in the walk-in cooler and began building Green Truck Pub, his grass-fed burger joint seven years in the making, named after the jadeite Chevy that still sits out front. He didn't know that from the moment the open sign went up, a little over a year ago, Green Truck would become a midtown Valhalla for Savannah's tourist-weary souls, hungry (literally and figuratively) for a place to call their own. From day one, Green Truck's motto has been "it's a good problem to have." The jukebox—filled with Otis Redding, Prince, and Johnny Cash among others—dulls the constant ring of the phone.
The jukebox is filled with solid gold.
The fanatical eaters who arrive at Green Truck almost as soon as the door is open shows Savannah is far from khaki shorts and cheese grits beige. There are the art students from Savannah College of Art and Design smoking by the drive-thru menu (leftover from the building's past life as a Crispy Chix) in cut-offs, black wayfarers, Dustbowl-chic maxi-skirts, and sparkly Jeffery Campbell platforms. Around the corner there's a coiffed and polished family sitting on a bench, the children wearing their prep school uniforms, the mother in the latest Lily Pulitzer frock. Inside at the bar, beneath Mason jar lampshades, there are sundried men in non-ironic trucker hats next to businessmen with loosened bow ties. There's a group of guys from Nigeria and Russia who play soccer together in one booth and a Miami transplant with her date in another.
Mason-jar lighting hangs over the poured-concrete bar.
Bigger than a canoe but still smaller than most Taco Bells, Green Truck now has nineteen employees. The dishwasher pulls double-duty by making burger patties and hand-cutting potatoes in the morning for the crowds sipping Terrapins and Dogfish Heads. These customers, by the way, will wait upwards of thirty minutes in the parking lot to snag a seat inside. The hostess buses tables in between taking names. To see a server at rest would be like catching a hummingbird taking a nap on a branch of the Mimosa tree blooming by the kitchen door.
Green Truck's burgers (and salads and sandwiches) are in Technicolor, with combinations of avocados, carrot slaw, goat cheese, radishes, Romaine lettuce, corn and black bean salsa, roasted red peppers, basil, fried eggs, pimento cheese, tomatoes, red onions, pickles, banana peppers, and bacon. Their names are also colorful: El Jefe, Trailer Park, The Whole Farm, and Rustico.
From right to left: The El Jefe, Hot Rod, and Rustico
The menu is two pages long—or short—but it speaks volumes about Savannah's prospering food community. The laundry list of produce comes almost entirely from local growers, many from the farmers' market at Forsyth Park where Josh and his vegetarian wife and co-owner Whitney (civil engineer by day, bartender by night and impetus behind their veggie patty) go every Saturday morning—sometimes with their sweet sixteen-year-old mutt, Jack. The Ranch dressing, pickles, pimento cheese and ketchup are all house-made. The coffee comes from Phillip Brown who runs Perc, a wholesale roastery a few blocks over in the Starland District, and the grass-fed beef hails from Del Ferguson at Hunter Cattle Company, a family-owned, free-range farm about forty miles west of Savannah in Brooklet.
One night's selection of six rotating drafts.
"[Hunter Cattle Company] is a really important relationship for me," Josh says. "Especially when we were first opening and growing and we weren't able to estimate our demand. They would come in the middle of the night on a Saturday to bring us some more beef so we wouldn't run out. You just can't get that anywhere else."
Server Jeffery Tosh, who goes by "The Jeffery," looks at the latest orders with owner Josh Yates. "Our food is drugged with goodness, happiness, and sunshine drops," Jeffery says.
Josh and Whitney had lived in Atlanta, where neighborhood eat-spots were commonplace, and they wanted Green Truck to fill that hole in Savannah. But they underestimated how deep the vacancy was. Before Green Truck opened, passersby would honk their horns and wave while Josh painted walls or Whitney sewed burlap curtains. The hype was growing, but Josh was still reserved, cautious that the truck could break down without warning.
"I thought lunch business would be so slow I wouldn't need a second server," he says. "Kudos to those people who showed up when we first opened, because it was a little rough, customer-service wise."
Server Aimee McKeen has been part of the Green Truck crew since the beginning.
The grinding hum of the ticket machine in the kitchen has finally become routine. So have the friendly suggestions from regulars to expand. Several have offered to design an outdoor patio. The requests have been duly noted, but Josh and Whitney are concerned with consistency more than modifications or marketing—at least for now. Standing over the line, Josh attentively checks for pickle spears on each plate, confirms a regular known as "Extra American Girl" got her second slice of cheese, and makes sure no one ends up with blackened stubs for fries.
"If we had more seats, I'm not sure the kitchen could handle it. There's only so many cooks I can fit behind the line," he says. "Everything's good right now."
Co-owners Josh and Whitney yates grab two El Camino salads at the bar as closing time nears.
But Savannahians have never been famous for keeping secrets from one another, food secrets or other kinds. What was once a hideaway across the railroad tracks on Habersham Street is now boldface type in travel magazines and receiving shout outs from Jamie Deen, son of Paula.
Just a couple weeks ago at the bar, a couple from Up North—Brooklyn to be exact—said everyone they asked for dinner recommendations made such a fuss about Green Truck that they had to stop by. The customer in the next seat, an assistant manager from another restaurant, assured the couple they wouldn't be disappointed.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

What is this script about?
PHPOF – Online PHP Functions it`s a PHP script designed as a help tool for developers but also a learning environment for people that want to learn PHP. The script has 114 online functions, categorized in Array, String Math, Time&date, RegEx, Cryptography and Other Functions. Every function page is split in two sections: The function tester and the Documentation section. In the Function tester area, the user fills the fields, submits the data, and in return, he will get the result of the function that he has executed. The return it`s PHP formatted and syntax Highlighted. The Documentation area features functions description, declaration method, PHP versions that is available on and a link to the official php.net documentation. The documentation can be available in multiple languages, you choose which ones you want, from the admin panel.
Main features:
- Run PHP functions online
- 114 Array, String Math, Time&date, RegEx, Cryptography and Other Functions
- Indented and Syntax Highlighted function return
- Documentation (PHP versions, description, declaration format) in multiple languages
- Slick, Cross-Browser, Responsive design (BootStrap 3 based)
- SEO ready (friendly links)
- AdSense ready (2 970×90 ad spaces, top, bottom)
- Search, List, Most Popular functions
- Clean and Easy to use admin panel
- Well documented
Dependecies: In order to run the script, you will need a server (shared/dedicated/vps) with PHP 5 (or newer) and MySql, mod_rewrite (.htaccess) and cUrl() function enabled.
Note: If you see a missing function, just tell me and I will implement it, as long as it is a native php function (it does not require an additional library) and it`s safe to run it (it would be dumb to have functions like exec() ).

A version of this blog post was originally published by the Financial Times.
Recently, I traveled to Madrid. I booked a flight on British Airways and found myself flying… Iberia. Of course these days these two "national carriers" are part of the same company, listed primarily on the London Stock Exchange and Bolsa y Mercados Espanoles, the Madrid exchange.
The Madrid and London stock exchanges are both over 150 years old and fiercely independent. They used to be among scores of independent stock exchanges around the world, all existing to serve their local markets with listings of companies from their country or local area. But increasingly independence is the exception, not the norm, for stock markets.
Like airlines, when countries from Austria to Zimbabwe took pride in having "national carriers," having your own stock market was a calling card for a nation, even a region. Just as the economics of airlines have prompted alliances no-one could have conceived of – Air France KLM, for example – the economics of stock markets are increasingly leading to a shake-out of the industry.
And just like with airlines, the traditional players are being challenged by low cost entrants who are shaking up the perceived business model by stripping it back to the basics of what traders want from a market. For every Easyjet or SouthWest Airlines, there are multilateral trading facilities (MTFs) such as BATS-Chi X or hungry new entrants, like the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE).
Hardly a week goes by without another deal or alliance being struck among exchanges. The partnerships change all the time creating the most unlikely bedfellows. But in reality all they are doing is following the money.
We are often told that we live in a global world. What happens in Sao Paulo can move markets in Shanghai. This means that traders can be in any location they choose – and these choices are dictated by the availability of skilled labor, the nature of the tax regime, regulations and probably where hedge fund managers want to send their kids to school. From that location they want to trade in any security anywhere in the world. Their choice of market is not predicated on any national loyalty – they will go where there is the best opportunity, the most liquidity, the lowest costs and the least hassle.
As a result you have seen an increasing flow of companies listing on stock markets outside their home territory – from Israeli technology companies on NASDAQ to Kazakh miners on the LSE and Manchester United, an English football club with a Scottish manager, listing in New York where "soccer" is at best a minority sport. Even when a company has its primary listing in its home country, you will often find that the investor community and the majority of trading happen in other places.
Like airlines, national exchanges have had to adapt from being near monopolies in their home markets to being relatively small players in an increasingly global marketplace. They have had to invest in systems and infrastructure to compete and yet still see a large amount of their business being taken by rivals. Against this background it is not surprising that they want to huddle together or face being picked off by global consolidators, worse- altogether forgotten and obsolete.
Over the last few years we have seen multiple alliances in other parts of the world come to fruition. Euronext in Western Europe should regain some autonomy following from the very likely takeover of its parent company by ICE, while NASDAQ OMX in the Nordics, ASEAN in South East Asia, CEESEG in Central & Eastern Europe, and MILA in Latin America have all emerged as important trading blocks, each operating with a subtly different market model.
A fresh crop of new entrants are emerging who reflect the financial strength of markets previously not considered to be worthy of consideration. Moscow shows how, with government backing and strong momentum, a fragmented market can be consolidated to create a credible emerging financial center, fighting for Russian stocks listings that previously would have gone to London or New York. Both the Warsaw and Istanbul exchanges are emerging with similar ambitions.
Where will it end? I can see a few major groupings of markets emerging over time. It is hard to see more than two or three exchange groups in Europe. The lessons from the airline industry are there to see.
