Scott Carson, (R) President of Connexion by Boeing and Wolfgang Mayrhuber CEO of Lufthansa talk as they surf the web on laptop computers hooked up to the Internet on Lufthansa flight 418 from Frankfurt to Washington, January 15, 2003. The flight initiated a new communications era in the history of air travel called FlyNet. With FlyNet, Lufthansa offers the fastest and most powerful Internet access ever installed onboard a commercial airliner. The Internet access service is based on a cooperation between Connexion by Boeing and Lufthansa which began in mid-June 2001. NOTE TO EDITORS-This photo was transmitted from Lufthansa flight 418.
