Off topic here, but hey. Some time ago, I posted a comment which referenced the airline E T I H A D. The following day, I read the posting again and noted that the name appeared as 'Teahid'. I just presumed that I must have been rather more tired than I thought when I made the posting, although everything else was spelt correctly.

On this thread, I note that the same word crops up again in postings by several different contributors. Is there some monster spell-check sub-routine affecting this title in PPRuNe postings and altering the correct spelling? If so, please can we have the darned thing zapped? Thanks!

ADDED: Now here is an interesting observation (well, at least I think so!). When you press reply, the postings appearing below show this airline name with the correct spelling! But on the main thread it still appears as 'Teahid'. Are other users experiencing this, or is it perhaps an Apple Safari problem?
