The Air War In Afghanistan
We're lucky in a lot of ways to have Senior Correspondent Kevin
O'Brien on board... but perhaps most lucky in the sense that he's
one of those guys who's been there and done that.
As a special forces operative, Kevin was stationed in
Afghanistan... and knows firsthand about some of the toughest
flying conditions in the world. And some of that flying was done by
British combat helicopters in action last week.
This feature is in addition to our daily news briefing --
available in either a quick "Touch And Go" format or an expanded
Aero-Briefing.
ANN Daily Touch N Go:
06.02.06 (ANN's Short-Form Daily News Program)
ANN Daily Aero-Briefing:
06.02.06 (ANN's Long-Form Daily News Program)
ANN Special Feature -- The Air War In
Afghanistan: 06.02.06 (ANN Special Feature, with
ANN Senior Correspondent Kevin O'Brien on the air war in
Afghanistan.)
Our DAILY programs consist of (at least) three separate
products... the first is a short synopsis of the previous 24 hours
of Aero-News, in brief, spanning only a few minutes (max) and in a
size/format that will allow it to be mailed as part of a Daily
Aero-Cast subscription; a more comprehensive DAILY news product
that will cover the previous 24 hours of news in a somewhat more
detailed fashion, and a feature Aero-Cast that will center on one
of the more important subject or topics of the day in considerable
depth and detail. This is how these products break down...
- ANN's Daily 'Touch & Go' Aero-Cast: A
quick look at the most recent news of the day... short, succinct
and to the point. The usual 'Touch & Go' takes but a few
minutes and is a summary, only, of the day's events... and it only
takes a few minutes of your time.
- ANN's Daily Briefing Aero-Cast: The Daily ANN
Report (ANNRep for short), is a more comprehensive look at the
day's news. We give you the whole buzz... the news and features
that occupy the forefront of aviation news as well as solid
background on the subjects that aviators and other aviation
professionals need to stay informed on.
- ANN's Daily 'ASR' Feature Aero-Cast: ANN will
be offering a Daily 'Aero-News Special Report.' This involves a
more in-depth view of a story or two that dominated (or will be
dominating) the day's news. Far more detailed than any single story
in our standard ANN Daily Reports, this is a solid chance to get a
close look at the stories and topics that matter. ASR features may
include exclusive interviews with Aviation's Newsmakers, ANN's
Special Investigative reports and solid analysis of the stories
that will have undeniable impact on the world of aviation and
aerospace. We're tremendously excited about this particular product
in that it truly adds nuance and background to important breaking
news stories and personalities.
Check them out, let us know what you think and be sure to keep
those news-tips and program suggestions coming... ANN is ALL about
what YOU want to know about in the world of aviation and
aerospace.
