Re: It makes my blood boil..!

If I think you are going to find it difficult to travel then I (and other guards) will always go that bit further to help. It's what we do.

Re: It makes my blood boil..!

Having a 'bump' in front of you means upgrade to 1st class if I am working the train! Seats much more comfortable.

Victor and Shack still in the same state but the Viscount is outside (as of 9th Feb 11). Herald looks terrible and is also outside.

Re: SU-30MK...

I think the Harrier would give the Sukhoi a fight with its vectored thrust (Viffing) after all it............

Oh, forgot, we don't have any anymore.

Or Nimrods

Or aircraft carriers

Re: Some help from Mr Booker please

Looks like the AEO had the main indicator with the captain's display showing the relative bearing to the threat aircraft

Re: Some help from Mr Booker please

It was an active system (it tranmitted a radar pulse) called Red Steer, a derivative of the early EE Lightning radar, also known as ARI-5919.

The display was a CRT with eliptical returns to show pursuit aircraft. Also fitted to Victor and Valiant, details still classified even today!
