Update: rang @DirectLine to see if they could price match, they could only get it down to £800 (from £1100). Enter @AdmiralUK who gave dad a quote of £477. Shame on you @DirectLine

Loving Grok image AI. This Concorde is real, the sky is AI #concorde

It’s November and @bmstores are already selling Halloween stuff 🤪

The @rafredarrows over Consett a short while ago. Go the Reds !

D-FIPS PC6 Survey aircraft just to west of Durham now.

Thank you @ring for having hassle free customer service. I had a defective battery (100% to 3% in 1 day). One phone call later and a replacement was sent… This is how things should work 👍

DLH470 B747 D-ABVM is currently returning back to Frankfurt (Originally FRA-YYZ). Reason unknown. I’ve literally just watched it loop back on itself over Sunderland. They are requesting lower level to burn off fuel. No 7700 as yet. #DLH470

Almost 10 years ago we bumped into the lovely @BrendaBlethyn filming a scene for @VeraSeries at The Steamboat in South Shields.

Some nice rudder action on this @emirates B777 @NCLairport. Excuse the heat haze, I’m not used to filming in double digit temperatures 🫠

This photo was taken on 29th August 2006 and shows the construction of the Emirates Tower @NCLairport #emiratestower

For those of you who can do the 3D Stereogram cross eyed thing, here’s a few nice ones of the Trident @manairport and @emirates B777 @NCLairport (3) #spatial #stereo

Looking back through some of my 747 snaps. 1) Wardair @NCLairport May 1986, 2) British Airtours @manairport 1985(?), 3) Northwest Orient @GPAPassenger 1984(?). #boeing747 @FlyNorthwestAir

Good to see the @ChildrensAirAmb van brimming with donations, the driver was struggling to load any more bags on. Nice to see people are kindly donating 👍

The wonderful Penshaw Monument #penshawmonument

I definitely recommend visiting @TanfieldRailway this summer. Lovely scenery and friendly staff, not many places like this left these days 🚂 🩵 #tanfield #railway

Basking in 25°C heat in South Shields today, water glistening. Let’s hope this is the start of a long summer ☀️

Always nice to see an A300. Shame I only had my phone camera. This was D-AEAO on its way from ARN to EMA. Still smoking down through 27,000ft.
