[edit] A TPF application?

Sabre was built on top of TPF, right?

If so, we should probably mention this.

Some current version of it could conceivably be, but the original predates System 360, of which TPF is apparently a descendant. I believe the original was largely (or exclusively) written in assembler, and in that era probably directly on the metal with no OS as such. PeteVerdon 16:02, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, PeteVerdon!

Before TPF it was ACP (Airline Control Program), jointly developed by American Airlines and IBM. TulsaTV 04:24, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Location of original SABRE systems

I have it on very good authority that the twin 7090s were located in Briarcliff Manor, about 2 miles from here.  ;-) I have marked the building, which still stands, in Wikimapia. Search for SABRE. Capek 21:59, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Sabre Logo 1.PNG

Image:Sabre Logo 1.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
