When I was doing my CPL the CAA were described as 'Zeppelin pilots', in my career I found nothing that disproved that comment. Anything the CAA got involved in was usually a cluster****. The...

Really Sad. RIP Ron. He was unbelievable in the air, Think of Andy Carroll and then add two feet, that's how high he could jump. He was a colossus, he would start his run ten yards out and head the...

Agreed but in this case Woods is a real hard ass with a thick skin from California not the South. He has just maliciously screwed Garcia. At least Garcia isn't a cheat.

Lots of integrity too, treated his wife well didn't he? Jack has never put a foot wrong, along with Arnie and Gary is a legend. Woods isn't fit to lick their boots. He might be a top golfer but he's...

I suppose we'll have to pick up McDonalds (I'm not being anti Scottish) (I just don't like the cardboard crap and stale buns) instead of Kentucky Fried Chicken on the way back home from SMS. Woods is...

This has been going on between Woods and Garcia for ten years, the Players was just a continuation. They just dislike each other intensely. I personally can understand why Garcia dislikes him....

When I was training at Kidlington I stayed with Wing Cmdr Rupert Oakley DSO DFC DFM AFC in Woodstock, he flew Hampdens, Manchesters, Lancasters and Mosquitoes on 73 bombing raids ending up as a...

Interestingly Eric, Bob Knights DSO DFC didn't fly on the dams raid but joined 617 later and flew on most of the raids undertaken by 617 under Leonard Cheshire and the sinking of the Tirpitz under...

Here's one for you Sue a connection between the two crashes. The Captain of the Staines Trident represented the Captain of the Elizabethan at the subsequent enquiry/disciplinary hearings after the...

I knew the navigator on Ken Brown's F for Freddie, they were in the third wave and the second and last aircraft to attack the Sorpe dam. Dudley Heal won a DFM for his part and became a customs...

I wonder have they taken his passport. If he is charged it would make a transfer difficult.

Is that the one with the messages all over a 737.

You are spot on there Eric, sometimes we didn't have much choice. A crew positioning to Cuba in a subsidiary of Air Jamaica Dornier was flown into a Cu Nim, pretty much barrel rolled and lost a lot...

:lol: Probably the fastest you've ever moved. Glad it wasn't me.

Can't even get the batteries right on the B787, generators often fail, APUs fail to start, the pilot's unions will kill this one. What price getting insurance.

I was doing a flight into a cat C airport with a Captain who had to do a familiarisation on the jump seat before being cleared to operate. He was in uniform, halfway through the flight he wandered up...

:lol::lol: I bet the 747 glider passengers were glad pilots (and a flight engineer) were on board. My mate says he wouldn't want to have to do it with only two pilots, especially as he wasn't on the...

She said it was a matter of principle and gave the award to a Kenyan Childrens Charity that she regularly visits to do voluntary work. The PF were advised that they had a cast iron case but the...

Watford have a massive problem if they go up. They are not allowed to sign anybody and the loan signings will have gone back. Due to breaches of FA rules.

I had to go around at MAN after a PIA 747 entered the runway without permission when I was about 300ft cleared to land. In the seventies when I was a First Officer flying an empty a/c the Capt let...

Yes, because along with a lot of other conservative voters I wanted to send a message to the Tory party. Sort out the Liberal PM and start acting like Tories if you want my support in the next GE. If...

Sad news, Life is not fair. RIP Kevin.

Stick him on the first Jordanian flight out of London. Send the rest a message, 'get out voluntarily or you'll be going too, sooner rather than later'. There is no place in this country for foreign...

I feel really envious of Pompey now they've pulled it off. I wish it was us:adore: On second thoughts I think beating Man City, Liverpool and Chelsea makes up for playing Torquay, Aldershot...

If there was any justice the court will allow Portpin to take FP in lieu of the debt unless the charge is cleared.
