  1. Not quite today, but Friday: G-XLEC on the way to America. Spotted while waiting in the cold for some more trains
  2. 23 November, 1934 http://t.co/fPuuFLlc9s The Dornier Do-17, also known as the Flying Pencil, takes off in Friedrichshafen on its first flight. From the EADS Facebook page
  3. Superb leg there Brett - and nice find on the aircraft!
  4. Project Maths is a new way of teaching Maths, supposedly to make it more relatable to today's world. Most of the questions hide what they are asking you (it seems anyway) Info here - http://www.projectmaths.ie/ I think they accepted any answer as long as some calculations either proved it or not
  5. And Jack and John (March) are right - it is physically impossible to create such a triangle. The worrying thing is, this is off last year's exam from Project Maths, something that's been going on for two or three years and *should* make it easier! We are all hoping this doesn't happen this year, when we are doing it!
  6. Inspired by Jack's thread, here's one that had us all thinking at school. Shouldn't be too hard...... Enjoy!
  7. Not quite sure about this - seems too like the 'Project Maths' we do at school - although at least you can see what you're trying to achieve in these questions!
  8. Great PIREP Brian - just a shame about the broken wheel strut!
  9. Great shots Marcellus, despite the loss of the shots - but still you did it!
  10. Ironically, just as I was reading this, an e-mail came from the Vulcan crew themselves - spooky! Superb shots and videos Rob!
  11. Must have been very strange and hard to not touch the controls!
  12. Superb PIREP Kasper - was wondering what the inside of a B-29 was like! And after my landing in the VC-10, that was smooth!
  13. The best one out there is DM Flight Sim's models - http://www.dmflightsim.co.uk/bac_1-11.htm It does work in FSX, although personally haven't got it installed into FSX
  14. And a week before the first commercial jet flight across the Atlantic was made in a Comet 4 Carry on posting people!
  15. There I was, standing at a wet railway station taking photos. Progressively, I'm getting soaked to the skin. Normally, something interesting at least comes through. Whilst waiting for the now late running 1320 Cork - Heuston to pass, I glance at my e-mails. Two immediately popped out at me - one was from an aviation group, who were organising a trip to St. Marteen to take photos. At least it'd be warmer and drier, I thought. The second one interested me more. It was from a VC-10 Flyers Group, wanting me to come to Dublin for a talk as soon as possible. So I decided to get the next train up.
  16. En route now in an aircraft that should amke some of the older members who like old jets very happy! Stunning shots and story there Nigel!
