Speaking of rarities, that is the rear end of a Bristol 188, AKA “The Flaming Pencil”.

Word. Try being an airline pilot and watching stuff that features planes prominently. Movies like Air Force One give me hives...
Never had a chance to play the game, but I had this 12" single and played it relentlessly...
Don’t just take it my word for it; check out this vintage report from Local Robert Urich.
True, but doesn’t that just make it period, as in TV show period? One lasting impression I got from Magnum PI, The A-Team, Knight Rider and so on was the constantly weird way every one seemed to drive. Did all cars in America stop with a screech of dragging rubber, every time?
Hang on... You proved your wife wrong?
There have been birdstrikes at very high altitudes. Another possibility is large hailstones, which can be flung tens of miles from thunderstorms.
Radomes are made of composite so that the radar signals can pass through. The windshield is way stronger.
Pilot here. You’d be surprised what we find...
Being in orbit implies orbital speed. If you are stationary to the surface you’re not going to be in orbit no matter how high. You can be past the Moon and still not be in orbit.
Indeed. Ryanair can be a great option. However many travelers are not very well informed unfortunately. So they think they’re flying to Milan and end up in Bergamo, or to Stockholm and end up in Skavsta. The extra cost involved in transfers is purposefully not obvious without a modicum of digging.
Excellent advice. Low cost is an option, but only as long as you know what you’re getting into.
Counterpoint. Many people who work on flights love the disconnection. It means they can get a lot of work done without distractions.
In my personal experience (i.e. not a scientific study) strenuous exercise is not a problem without breakfast. I’m talking a tough hill run followed by one hour of “boot camp” style outdoor exercise. My body still seems to have more than enough glycogen lying around from the night before.
In my experience, intermittent fasting isn’t something that happens on day one.
It seems about the size and shape of a longish Roman Gladius, which is typically thought of as a short sword. However it is not that short. Somewhere in the top range of short swords maybe?
Agreed. In US the lounges tend to be sub-par. Which is consistent with most everything else about air travel in the US.
