Yeah, plenty of nuts in that section but the G&T helps I suppose. I had a very brief go in a wee Piper once in France. Easy peasy. I was also once in complete control* of a 747, but it was on the ground. *Well it couldn't go anywhere until I took the parking brake off, so I'm claiming it!  What you do with a wee piper is none of my business, but if it stops them torturing cats I'm all for it. Wee piper...very talented... youtube.com/@piperally?si=pVOQkcBBdXbzIVG7 |

Sitting in business class with some nuts and a G&T was my forte. Yeah, plenty of nuts in that section but the G&T helps I suppose. I had a very brief go in a wee Piper once in France. Easy peasy. I was also once in complete control* of a 747, but it was on the ground. *Well it couldn't go anywhere until I took the parking brake off, so I'm claiming it! I suspect that said 747 had large accessory, better known as a tug, attached to the nose gear. I remember one rather warm summers day trying to keep the cabin of a 747 cool. It should have been easy but a rather large hole in the pneumatic duct on the left wing meant I had only 2/3 of the cooling capacity. To make life even more interesting there wasn’t much fuel onboard so I spent a large portion of the afternoon shifting fuel from various tanks into the one that fed the APU. The aircraft was being used to make some sort of film, I have never seen the results. All I got was the complaints that it was too hot. It was better than working though. |

Sadly I think the Orange turd is still going to win.

Sadly I think the Orange turd is still going to win. That's been a given for months. Unless the next shooter gets lucky. |

I don’t care who becomes their president I’ve given up thinking about such things. I’m more concerned about who wins big brother and I don’t watch it so have no interest in it and far less interest in the USA 🇺🇸
