Classic British Flight Sim

I've just watched the BBC program 'Attenborough at 90', which I thoroughly enjoyed.
He's been such an influence, not only on my life, but more importantly on issues of nature and conservation. Through his (and his teams) exceptional skills in producing the most outstanding television series he has brought us wonderful entertainment and vastly increased our knowledge and understanding of nature.
Add to this, his wonderful warm personality and an exceptional sense of humour, I hope you'll all join me in wishing him a Very Happy 90th Birthday.

Happy Birthday Sir David !

Absolutely, Kevin ! Very Happy Birthday, Sir David. I've got a number of his documentary series on DVD, but the one that stands out for me is The Secret Life of Plants - I never knew plants do what they do. It made me wonder what force of life must flow through and around this world.

And it's wonderful that our new polar research ship is going to be christened RSS Sir David Attenborough. Surely there can't be a more fitting name.

Yes, Many Happy Returns, Sir David!
Thank you for sharing your wonderful life experiences with us.

A Very Happy Birthday Sir David

Sir David has always educated and entertained so many Happy Returns to him!

Me too, Paul.

Absolutely! I couldn't agree more.
I'm also strangely pleased that 'Boaty' will be applied to the remotely controlled submersible. A case of the authorities applying a much more appropriate name to the mother ship, but having the wisdom and sense of humour to take on a popular suggestion from the public. I think that's a real 'win win' situation. I even think that it will endear the submersible to the peoples hearts. If it has a Facebook or Twitter account, I can see lots of people logging on to see what 'Boaty' has discovered. I believe that Sir David would warmly welcome this interest and what it will do for both public awareness of nature and conservation issues.

I thought there would be far more replies to the post, but maybe everyone is too busy flying virtually

Whatever, we have a new series 'Life on Earth 2' to look forward to. It will air this Autumn.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if Sir David has links to classic British aircraft. In all the years He's been travelling (He must have seen an awful lot of airport lounges), it's a fair bet that He's flown on numerous British built aeroplanes.
