IPhone bug leaves emails vulnerable

German security expert Andreas Kurtz has discovered that anyone in possession of your Apple device might be able to access files sent to you via email, even if your phone is locked with a passcode.It's a major security flaw, but it's worse for people with older iPhones and iPads.

If a technology being developed by aerospace giant Honeywell that helps airplanes land in very cloudy conditions wins regulatory approval, it could make a huge dent in weather-related delays throughout the aviation system.The technology is called Enhanced Visual System/Synthetic Vision System , and it is designed to give pilots the information they need to land safely even when there is cloud cover near ground. Current U.S. rules mandate that pilots decide at the 200-foot mark if their ground visibility is good enough to land or if they need to circle around for another try. , they would be able to hold off on making that decision until between 100 and 150 feet.
