(AP) — A film crew from the United Kingdom is sight-seeing in Nebraska to shoot high definition footage that will be used to promote the state.

Skyworks is shooting video of the state for its own stock footage archive and for Nebraska Educational Telecommunications, the University of Nebraska and the state Tourism and Game and Parks commissions.

The low-flying Skyworks helicopter has already visited sights in western Nebraska, Lincoln and Omaha. The group plans to spend a couple more days in northern parts of the state before wrapping up the project this week.

Skyworks’ founding director Richard Mervyn says he has been impressed by the beauty of Nebraska, especially out west.

(AP) — Supporters of the Great Platte River Road Archway museum that spans Interstate 80 near Kearney hope a bankruptcy court judge will approve their plan to eliminate $20 million of debt by paying pennies on the dollar.

But the Archway still must secure financial support from Kearney and Buffalo county to survive.

The foundation that runs the Archway museum has proposed a bankruptcy reorganization plan that includes paying bond holders $50,000 for their $20 million in bonds.

The Archway proposes paying another $50,000 to unsecured creditors it owes $100,000.

The foundation says it has secured pledges of about $132,000 to help pay for the reorganization plan.

Objections to the reorganization plan can be filed until July 23, and then a bankruptcy judge will decide whether the Archway can move forward.

Passengers in plane crashes today, such as the one in San Francisco involving Asiana Airlines Flight 214, are more likely to survive than in past disasters.

Saturday’s crash was the latest where a jetliner was destroyed but most passengers survived. Only 2 of the 307 passengers and crew onboard died.

Seats are stronger, and fire retardant cushions and carpeting give passengers more time to escape. Lights on the floor pinpoint exits in the dark and doors are easier to open. New cockpit technology helps pilots avoid the deadliest crashes, such as planes hitting mountains or other planes in mid-air.

A decade ago, passengers were 10 times as likely to die when flying on an American plane then they are today, according to an Associated Press analysis of government accident data.
