This is an encyclopedia not a place to post plugs for companies. With that said I do think that this entry can be made to conform to our NPOV policy by cutting-out much of the self-referential material (who is "we"? -- Wikipedia? Obviously not). --mav

Merge from Airline teletype[edit]

This seems to be the correct place for the information. Both articles are very different but appear to cover the same topic. Vegaswikian 00:02, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. Airline teletype (now renamed to Airline teletype technology) seems a more general article, while this article deals specifically with the European co-op operating the technology. I've removed the merge tag, and linked the articles together. JesseW, the juggling janitor 06:23, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

RE: Advertisment?????[edit]

I do not agree with the harsh exclamation that the article reads like and advertisement...After the end of WW-II SITA was established as the first and still the largest private comms companies in the World as of 2011. To deny that SITA had its origins in data comms across the planet well before we had ISD Telephony would be a travesty...It is historical fact that a data comms carrier was born out of World necessity in air transportation... Fact SITA further developed SNA to provide global SNA/T when the World was new to Global Data Comms...When the editor and contributors of this article were not even born SITA had been formed and was functional with the largest Main Frame Computer Systems on this planet and still are...Go Visit Galileo, COVIA, AMR - Corporations, Amadeus, Abacus to name a few and thanks for 'Secure Flight' which keeps our air transports safe in a Global sense. How could you not write about SITA without saying where they came from and what they do very quietly without advertisement nor endorsement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zczc2311 (talkcontribs) 06:34, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

SITA vs Friends Media Network[edit]

Has the name of SITA AERO been changed to Friends Media Network?? Or Somebody has spammed the article? This article originally was about SITA AERO but now has been renamed to Friends Media Network. Please explain me or give link to any talk page where it has been discussed or else I will revert it back to march 31st,2014

Conflicting company name: State Information Technology Agency (ZA)[edit]
