  3. Ever since this section was announced, I wanted this leg. After all, how many times do you get to fly a large aircraft into London City? Anyway, on to the story! The plan was simple. Train to Heuston, bus to the airport, flight to East Midlands, bus to Nottingham, train to London St. Pancras, Eurostar to Brussels and finally another train to the airport. Simple? To me, yes. When I got word that Joe had landed at Brussels, I set off on my extended journey. Of course, flying Aer Lingus to Brussels would save about 2 days, but where is the fun? And anyway, I had to find an aircraft. L

  4. Doing a bit of bush flying in Kenya. Stopped at the duty free shop . And the sign warned me not to feed the animals. But I did anyway. Another sign wanrning me of the dangers of the wild animals I guess I should've heeded the warnings. Damned giraffe walked right in front of me. Too late to abort on this bumpy excuse for a runway. I pulled the yoke all the way back and just cleared her.

  7. Hey, who else do you know who could hack Angela Merkel's phone --- or would want to? Too bad Kim Philby is dead - he and Andrew Snowden could be yukking it up together over Borscht about how they'd made monkeys of their native countries' intelligence services. Is there a word in there you'd like to have put into play next or are you just throwing stones?

  8. Sorry I couldn't get screenshots Matt. I'm relaxing in 40*C heat here in GCRR. Might be going to the airport in the morning to spot for a while (there's a beach behind the runway like TNCM) so I might get some good shots for you

  10. Alan; your touching a nerve for me with these pics seeing you with these models takes me back to the days i had my own fleet this used to be my hobby as a child; my dad used to get the air force magazine once a month the last page always had a cardboard model you had to cut out; roll and glue together i hated these; as a kid id mess these up; i could never get them done right until the plastic die cast models arrived; i had well over 40 of them i haven’t done one in well over 30 years i always wanted to build a wooden boat model; a big one with lots sails and detailed deck but it was out of r

  15. Angel Interceptor. A single seat strike aircraft with a top speed of around 3,000kts. Developed from the earlier Viper Jet built by International Engineering, the final blueprint was vastly different from the original design and was tailored to Cloudbase Requirements. Although compact it carries a massive electronic suite for Spectrum operations. Each aircraft took 9 months to build. For operational use they are clamped onto Cloudbases flight deck and can be launched in seconds. The design is unusual to say the least, The aircraft uses skids as opposed to wheels for it's undercarriage as these

  19. Yes I finally convinced the oul fella to get on board with the idea of leasing I won't be flying it until next week (I'm off to Lanzarote for a week on Tuesday) so I'll take the time to read up on the 170. I can't wait to get flying in it, it should be good! I'll try post some screenshots later The Vice President is in his element flying his Cessna Caravan haha
