Norwegian Boeing 787 Engine Parts Fall From Sky Onto Italian Town – Forbes

One person, 25 vehicles and 12 houses were hit by falling debris from a Boeing 787-8 – yikes.  It could have been a lot worse if it happened closer to town but still pretty scary.  Luckily the pilots landed the plane with no injuries on board.

Tourism Is Eating the World – Bloomberg

A very though provoking piece that I can’t really argue with.  Cities like Amsterdam and countries like Iceland have began pushing back against tourism a little bit because it hurts the locals.  I lived in a town that thrived off of tourism and yet the locals and businesses despised it.  Even though they made all of their money for the year in 3-4 months they never truly embraced it.  I think tourism tax will roll out to many popular areas or something similar.

THE HAMMER FALLS: DOT ISSUES GUIDANCE ON EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS – Family Flys Free
