What is "jetstream"

n. (alternative spelling of jet stream English)

"Jetstream" is a single by New Order. Released through Warner Music on 16 May 2005, it is the second single to be taken from their album Waiting for the Sirens' Call.

The single, an aeroplane/air travel themed track, features Scissor Sisters member Ana Matronic on backing/second vocals.

The single charted at number 30 in the Republic of Ireland, and number 20 in the United Kingdom, down from the positions held by the previous track, " Krafty". The video for the song is the first to feature the band since 1993's " World (The Price of Love)".

JetStream and Mobile JetStream are two former brand names used by Spark New Zealand to market its retail and resale ADSL-based fixed line and CDMA2000-based 3G wireless Internet access offerings respectively. The retail ADSL offering from its own Internet service provider, Xtra, was commonly referred to by the company as Xtra Broadband. "Jetstream" is no longer used, and has been replaced with "Ultra" for their Broadband and Mobile offerings. Xtra branding was retired in 2008.

Retail ADSL offerings (using Telecom's network) from non-Telecom ISPs such as Vodafone and Slingshot (ISP) were often sold under the resale option. The Jetstream partnering program was retired in August 2005. Resellers were then migrated to retail plans that either use Telecom's wholesaled WBS or UBS ADSL offerings.

VDSL and Fibre broadband are becoming more popular options in 2014.

Jetstream (Haroum ibn Sallah al-Rashid) is a fictional Moroccan mutant character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created as a part of the group known as the Hellions, he exists in Marvel's main shared universe, known as the Marvel Universe. His first appearance was in New Mutants #16.

The Jetstream was the last roller coaster to be built at Chicago's Riverview Park. It was built in 1965 and met its unfortunate end in 1968 when the park was demolished. The Jetstream, which was built to replace the park's aging Greyhound roller coaster, was not yet paid off when demolished. The ride was shorter than its predecessor, the Greyhound. The ride was not as profitable as some of its more wild cousins, such as The Bobs, and The Comet.

Jetstream was designed by coaster designer John C. Allen and built by Philadelphia Toboggan Coasters.

The ride was rumored to have been reassembled at a park in Rockford, Illinois after the sudden closure of Riverview, but for whatever reason, the deal fell through. The trains, for a short time, were used on Thunder Road at Carowinds, but have since been destroyed.
