Again stand to be corrected but modern aircraft have a ram air turbine R.A.T which pops out under emergencies provides limited electrics and hydraulics for the essential bus bars and hyd esp under engine failures ,happens automatically under certain conditions. A.P.U.s can take a while to...

Probably get rightly corrected by some and never worked on the 800 Think 800 has 3 hydraulics systems which the landing gear will be connected to by both engines,so even with 1 eng failure you should still have hydraulic power from the other . Theres a R.A.T. which pops out after under certain...

Turning point,The bomb and the cold war on netflix. Scary stuff about the nuclear arms race and cold war. Very informative 9/10

No.6 is getting worse every week. 30 minutes late yesterday and people are losing confidence in this service. Might have preferred if it didnt turn up at all.

St.Athan is most definitely a graveyard. Had the misfortune of working there with the R.A.F in the 80's. Hated it that much that I volunteered for Northern Ireland so got out quick. Though these will go to the civilian side.. B.A used to do a lot of maintenance there i think.

Off to Penang for 2 weeks in Jan for a relax. However hoping to do Chile next year, thinking late Feb /March, as my first taste of South America. Picking Chile as it seems the safest and looks amazing , so we can get a feel for what's South America like. Thinking of hiring a car and seeing the...

Whataboutery at its finest ....doesn't make it right just because the conservatives were also liars. There all the same,No need to defend whats wrong just because its "your" party.

Isnt the rise in employers N.I just a stealth tax. You would have to be naive to think Businesses will absorb the cost ,they will pass these on to the public so we all end up paying more anyway.

They dont knock it off next years anymore,havent for a couple of years You get 1/19th of your season ticket paid into your bank account .

Killing time on a flight The first omen . Garbage 1/10 and i loved the omen trilogy, ok maybe not the 3rd. Mothers instinct 5/10 ok but predictable ending War dogs 7/10 easy watch Rebel Ridge 6/10 Was hoping it might be a first blood type but ended up being a bit daft with him just...

Transited through Frankfurt yesterday. Had to collect my bags then re-check in on a different airline and given myself 3 hrs to do this. Passport control both in and out with really massive queues for visitors ,loads of stressed passengers, queue jumping and arguing not seen anything like it...

No worries sometimes for peace of mind its worth paying for pre -booked ,esp if you know what times you need picking up etc. . Few more quid but at least your not messing about at the end of the eve . you can play with the grab app even tho your not there and get costings

Def a 24/7 city Download grab in asia its like uber for the uk , although people may know better.. Metered taxis are meant to be cheaper but for peace of mind I like top amount for example the metered taxi from the airport should have been around 480 baht, grab was about 420 but i couldnt log...

First time I went,didnt much like the place, too busy, too expensive, no night life, that was probably 20 years ago tho and was my fault for not doing my research properly re the night life . Love the place now. Lucky enough to go there at least once a year .

We always stay at the same place,the Novotel in Sumkhovit 4 it was about 70 a night. I will say tho its not for everyone as its on the street of one of the girly bars sections. We just love to people watch in the evening and nobody really bothers you so its ideal for us. The Bts skytrain is...

Yea each to his own. I personally like cities with a bit of character, cant see the fuss about Dubai for instance. I was similar, first came to Thailand over 25 years ago,changed a lot since then. Just as I type the heavens have opened and its lashing it down, prob why its shoulder season .

Currently in Koh Samui, after travelling through Bangkok. The wifes gone off on a retreat for the week so Ive spent 3 days at Lamai and now at Chaweng mooching about. Its out of season so im getting really good deals on hotels all on spec and everything is dirt cheap. Pint of chang is about 2...

What about Skips I was walking my 2 when a lady complained that id put my dogs waste into a skip, not hers, and not even that day so she must have been waiting for me to come round again the following week. When I politely asked her what the issue was she said that kids could be playing in...
