Losing a close friend...
Sorry for your loss, Noel. Sadly this is the hardest part of growing old. Each day that we live is a gift. Some are less pleasurable than others. Bill W

A320 Grounding
Additional problems with panels in the cockpit. Makes one wonder if anyone fully checks out their product before the sale. A bit scary to say the least. Bill W

A320 passes Boeing 737 as most-delivered jet in history
I flew on an A380 from Boston to Heathrow. Most comfortable flight ever. We flew Premium Economy and were thrilled with large seats and nice media. Also a shoutout to the British Airways cabin crew. Wonderful trip.

The vicar volunteered.
My mother who was from Norwich introduced me to him as a child. I always got a kick out of his self imposed predicaments. Bill W

First time I've seen a pilot land a 747 sideways on a runway. Special talent.😁 Bill W

Be careful with UPS and FS orders
Are you absolutely sure this is not some sort of scam? How does UPS know the value of the package? Being an old auditor this just sounds fishy. Maybe the new world order. Things get more bizarre as time goes on. Bill W

What's happening to the airline idustry?
Seems like I remember that years back an airline named Republic tried this. It eventually failed. As crazy as things are getting it may be more successful now. Bill W

Aviation videos on Facebook - are they real?
There are numerous fakes on FB. Some of the more comical ones are the pilot going crazy with the yoke right before landing. Some guy with a high powered pc provides some that you have to look closely to know they are a flight simulator. Some are actual departures and landings. These are most commonly from a cockpit view. Others are from nearby locations. Some make me envious that my machine is so out of date.😁 Bill W

Feeling Lonely My Friends
I went through a situation like this a few years ago. In fact over my 75 years I've faced several tough family situations. Believe when I say times will get better and what you are experiencing will calm down. One of life's lessons. All the best to you and your family. Sincerely, Bill W.

F-47!
Corporate pity. Lockheed Martin is probably a better choice for this type aircraft.

The last of the Few has passed away
My Mother's uncle was a Spitfire pilot in the Battle of Britain. They were all heros. My Mother was from Norwich. I'm not sure where he was from. I suspect Norwich. Bill W

Southwest jet narrowly avoids colliding with business jet
I have often wondered how pilots quickly learn the "lingo". It's almost like a test to see how astute the pilot really is. The controller was much more understandable when he repeated to hold short in a slower demeanor. With the shortage of pilots in the US this could be seen as a dangerous situation. Not all of these people have been around a long time. Bill W.

Tylenol , acetaminophen
I take Tumeric for the inflammation. seems to work pretty well. Too much can cause digestive issues. I stopped taking for awhile and pain came back. Resumed and it went away. Bill W

Tylenol , acetaminophen
I love this one: Be sure to tell your doctor if you are taking ___________. I would really hope that my doctor already knows this.😁 The other one: Don't take ------------ if you are allergic to said drug.

Recent drone acticity in the US and Great Britain...
Back in 2020 a political analyst stated that the presidential election was an election of the deplorables. The only ones willing to tolerate the media digging in on them caring less what people thought.🤣 Some things never change. Bill W.
