How can anyone compare BA and Low Cost Airline’s they are two different setups
When will the narrow sighted see this ,BA setup Go airlines and it was a success, but BA decided that it did not fit in with the company ,so sold it .now if BA had kept Go I think a lot of the other LCC would be either gone, or struggling Especially Ryanair, becasue at the end of it, Go would have had the backing of Britian’s Biggest Airline

RIP prbably is thinking about the metal super cooling and then weakening. Not trying to criticise but i think boeing factored in water from spray on land or whatever.

THere is the possibility of cracking the brake disk,
As a LGV driver I’ve had the problem over overheated brakes on more than one occassion and unless the brakes or hubs are on fire ,we would never pour water on them as the disk could warp or crack , I have seen it happen

Excellent pics!

They normally make an appearance at East Fortune, but obviously not this year. 🙁

Saw the Scotairways At East Fortune last Year,and the pilots had a grate time playing about with the Dornier 😀

Believe it or not ,but a Concorde was barrel rolled .

I was told the same by a BA engineer, that as part of her gaining her C/A she was barrel rolled, was expecting one of the BA pilots to do this on the last flight 😎 😎
