This is the first blog that I have posted while flying. I had the good fortune to land in the lap of American Airlines, who are celebrating 70 years of the Admirals Club's existence. They gave passengers a voucher for a free trial of in-flight wi-fi access. Well, the staff in the lounge did not know if my flight would have the equipment, and I had been expecting a little American Eagle buzzard. But, yo! There it was, in plain, blue and white: Wi-Fi. We had to wait to reach the right altitude before we could fire up our laptop engines, but now we are running on-air.
For me, it is a real bonus. I was miffed that I would miss the match in the US Open between Federer and Soderling.
But, here I am, watching that match online and live, and having my dinner, with a lovely Pittsburgh lady sitting beside (no photo supplied :-)); all thanks to USOpen.org. Is life good or what. I think the flight is long enough for me to see the whole match. Who knows what will happen with the lady? :-)
The service for an in-flight pass costs about US$10, but the coupon has US$12 value, so I'm a very happy camper.
What more can I say?

Way cool & life is good!
Kofi,
As you can see, the TV dinner set up was a bit complex and when I cut too hard into my quesadila, I logged out! Fortunately, Federer kept enough focus to overcome the Swede's onrush.
