Re: Ouch!

Metro News - whoever they are - has suggested a front wheel failure as the most likely reason for the nose over. Either Metro gets a kick in the nuts for not researching their story or the aircraft owners do for a non standard modification. Just when I think that the standard of journalism has reach...

Re: Ukraine

There do seem to be signs that he is ridding himself of those who could usurp him. According to a report I was reading this morning on line he has sacked the head and his deputy of the FSB - the old KGB and the Defence Minister has not been seen for 12 days. Who knows what will happen, we seem to be...

"I filled my gas tank!" Did that just before lunch after a 575 round trip to Wales. £88! The cashier actually apologised for the price, she said that it seemed so wrong to be charging so much when the oil companies are posting such huge annual profits. It was made even worse by the cut in...

Re: Ukraine

According to Aviation News Chile has bought 3 E3s and the crews are now in the UK undergoing training. Chile is going to use 2 of the aircraft whilst using the third as a spares source.

Re: St Valentine's day.

Maybe we are just a good match? Either way, it's worked so far.
