Abstract: A wrapper (10) comprising a film (11) having a reinforcing tear strip (12) extending at least partially across the film. The tear strip (12) includes an incision (17). No lines of weakening are provided in the tear strip to assist the tearing thereof other than the incision (17). The wrapper is configured such that, when a first portion of the tear strip (12) on one side of the incision (17) is pulled away from a second portion of the tear strip (12) on the other side of the incision, a tear will propagate from the incision along the length of the tear strip (12) and through the film (11) so that the tear strip and film separate into two portions (11a, 11b) with a first portion (11a) of the film attached to the first tear strip portion, and a remaining, second portion (11b) of the film attached to the second tear strip portion.

Abstract: An aircraft communication system and corresponding method for establishing a datalink network between participating aircrafts, wherein each participating aircraft comprises a datalink transponder for sending and receiving standard communication messages (M) over a standard communication protocol; said datalink transponders are employed for establishing said datalink network using a standard communication protocol, and wherein said datalink transponders transmitting event driven messages (M) with a predefined structure identifying said messages (M) as test messages (TM) and at the same time comprising message data (MD) for establishing said datalink network, thus providing a datalink network established by transmission of solely messages (M) compliant with said standard communication protocol.

Abstract: A container for holding unused and used snus is disclosed. The container comprises a base defining a first compartment to receive unused snus. The base has a bottom wall which is reconfigurable to form a second compartment for holding used snus on the other side of said bottom wall.

Abstract: The present application relates to a package for smoking articles. The package has a container (2) for receiving smoking articles and a lid (3) hingedly attached to the container to enclose a space for smoking articles defined by the container when the lid is closed. In one aspect, a line of weakening (29) is defined along a juncture between the lid and the container prior to initial opening of the lid, and a tear element (90) is configured to act on the line of weakening to separate the lid from the container along the juncture to allow the lid to hinge relative to the pack. The present application also relates to a blank for a package for smoking articles and a blank for an inner frame of a package for smoking articles.
