My first attempt at flying a 747

I found my old joystick from years ago ( lost the instructions ) so I attempted to fly my 747 as a test flight, So I think had a nice take off so this is a pic of it

Landing 2 weeks ago back into NCL from Reus, we were down and off the runway in less than 15 seconds

Oh My Lord! I studied that poem at school!

” Dulce Et Decorum Est Pro Patria Mori ” – It’s a sweet and noble thing to die for one’s country 🙂

It’s all gone downhill as school don’t teach now, ( at least my school doesn’t ) all that matters is where the school finishes in the leauge table, we don’t get taught how to do the work.

I’m interested in a course like this, but i’ve been told by the co-ordinator of sixth form that I am going to so sixth form! 🙁 I’m gutted, because now I actually go to sixth form as well but i’m not sure what to do!. And these courses sound very interesting and seems up my street, it’s not fair!

There is no words in the world that can summise what happened on this day, and even though it has been 5 years, the scars on society are still there, and as we have all seen since this day, the world has been repeatedly shocked from terrorists. September 11th is of course a very upsetting day as it was a real example of how easy it is for these terrorists to strike.

My heart still goes out to everyone who lost family and friends of the four airliners involved on this day and I still keep all those involved in my prayers. Also for the people of the NYPD and NY fire department, who tried extremely hard and faught bravely to help as many people as they could.

To all involved may the rest in peace and may god bless America on this sad day and help them all come past this day with comfort.
