Hi Danf... I have been to Bangor many many times In fact we went there for the night on our way to Vancouver!

Tonks

Um..................

Lady's Night at the Ramada?????????

I understand it is a tradition, although I
am too old personally to attend........

You seem to know too much

You know, pre-9/11, I used to have a good
friend in the FAA tower who would give me
a call when there was anything "Good" on the
way, but I don't HAVE that any longer

I DO hear you guys, though, because there
ain't ANYTHING ELSE that sounds like a VC-10!

I am not, however, going to go out and jump
in my car in my pajamas to go see your arrival
or departure and that's IT!


Why does that amuse me?


Thanks, Mister Tonks!

Always glad to see you on here!

Yep, I have done that a few times in the past LOL To be honest these days though I usually end up at Bugaboo Creek or Ruby Tuesdays for a bite to eat before an early night... getting to old for the joys of the Ramada!!!

Not seen this before. Rather dodgy for a large jet at slow speed.




But I still cannot get over the craziness of this one...............

I guess some Pilots hate there jobs and are looking for a way out!

[Nickolas]

Looks like an ex military jock to me. Needs to remember that the wingspan is a bit bigger on Civvie stuff though.

Sounds like the thing they should have said that to the AF A380 captain at JFK the other week.

But as XP says, funny how little regard for their own jobs / pensions / reputation some pilots have.

I'm reminded of that maxim about pilots. There are old pilots, and there are bold pilots..................

Doolittle Raid April 1942:::::::::::::



Luv those Mitchells!!!!!!!!!!

The raid also had a strategic impact, though it was not understood at the time: It caused the Japanese to recall some fighting IJN units to the Japanese Home Islands for defense. Its main aircraft carrier task force, spearheaded by five large, fast carriers—with its best naval aircraft and aircrews—under the command of Admiral Chuichi Nagumo, had inflicted serious losses on the Royal Navy and merchant shipping during the Indian Ocean Raid, steaming as far west as Ceylon (Sri Lanka) for air raids on British shipping and Royal Air Force airfields there. Following the Doolittle Raid, Nagumo's force was recalled to Japan, removing all pressure from the Royal Navy in the Indian Ocean.
