  4. The Chief of Staff of the US Air Force decided to personally recruit some pilots and he saw two young twins. He looked at the first young man and asked: "Son, what skills can you bring to the Air Force?" The young man looks at him and says: "I'm a pilot!" The General gets all excited, turns to his aide and says: “Get him in today, all the paper work done, everything, do it!" The aide hustles the young man off.

  9. Easyjet A319 departing London City for Edinburgh. Last run of the day with just a few businessmen to take home to Scotland. We follow the flight until she's over Yorkshire.

She is an impressive ship and once fully operational will become a major asset not only to the Royal Navy but NATO as a whole. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-40936071

  16. Armstrong Whitworth Atalanta of Imperial Airways on her way back to London from India. This stage takes her from Aden in Yemen to Najran in SAudi Arabia. The Yemen peninsular is an inhospitable place with mountainous terrain and harsh conditions, The tribespeople who inhabit the region are still governed by various warlords and tribal elders. White people are generally not welcome there. All the more reason for the crew to make sure their engines keep turning. This is no place for a forced landing. Thankfully she touches town at Najran to refuel just after sunset. the next leg will take her
