“Traffic 12 o’clock 1000ft above… @Airbus A350”… I love it when you get to say hi as we pass at a closing speed of over 1000 MPH. It is an Air France aircraft if you didn’t catch it. 😜

Here’s an interesting bit of Scottie life trivia. I’ve flown in an aircraft type that’s featured in this video. Any ideas what one ? @avgasaddiction & @99GR81 you’re banned from replying. #avgeek #supersonic #flying

I’m am very concerned that our judicial system is sending a very clear message here that this type offence has low consequences for the offender. @YvetteCooperMP… whilst the video is a snapshot of the incident, I’m sure you’d agree that our emergency services deserve better.
Watch the shocking moment a patient attacks our ambulance with the crew still inside. After pleading guilty to assault of an emergency worker, criminal damage and being drunk and disorderly in public, he was ordered to pay a £114 fine and serve 150 hours of community service.

Jeepers… that’s precision. 6 x 30,000lbs bombs down the same hole. That’s Deathstar swamp rat shooting accuracy. The technology is impressive.
Pete Hegseth explained that the first GBU-57 was used to break through a concrete cover (middle crater), allowing the remaining five to follow through the same opening. He added that what appeared to be two other impact holes were actually part of the site’s ventilation system.

Departing @EAA Air Venture in a formation of C-47’s or Dakota’s depending upon your flag 🇺🇸 🇬🇧… this was a once in a lifetime opportunity to fly in ‘That’s All Brother’ a C-47 with a remarkable story of its own. Can’t wait to be back in Osh Kosh with my buddies in a few weeks 🙌🏻

This is a beautiful piece of engineering from a RR engine from a Boeing 747 that I flew. Somehow … via @Aerotiques it’s managed to appear in my family room. There may be trouble ahead when @BatemanSharon comes back from work… hey ho… it’s just the depth that varies. What bits
