RE: Wysiwyg?

OK, not related to JMC or aanything, but I just checked the site EGNM recommended and under the fleet listing for Virgin Atlantic there are some interesting comments.

FURTHER 8 A340-800 OPTIONS WHICH ARE UNDER REVIEW, AND MAY BE REPLACED BY B767-300’s
WHAT!!
First of all, is that a misprint with the A340-800, must mean -600 right? And “under review, may be replaced by 767-300’s” – Never heard anything about this, with Virgin’s current “4 engines are better campaign” it looks a bit dodgy they are considering the 767-300! Also, they are thinking of the 767 over a brand new A340-600 (plus the fact thats is a new aircraft type in the fleet) – Are they mad?!
Also
HAVE SIGNED A LETTER OF INTENT FOR 6 B747-500
What is a 747-500? I heard about a possible stretch -500 and -600 version of the 747, but I thought this had been scrapped a long time ago? Didn’t know they were going through with it let alone gone as far as taking orders for them!

Anyone know anymore?

RE: Check this out-totally hilarious

Thats good! Just tried Rachel from Friends and got stumped!

Suppose this only works with US characters?

RE: Photography

How much do you want to spend?

The Canon EOS 300 is a good camera, it was about £200 when I bought one. I used it for over two years and never had a problem with it, lightweight, small and I’ve seen it recommended by a number of people.

I can give you links to examples but to be honest any digital images are more about the scanner than the camera.

Whatever camera you do choose search for the best price around the web, there can be some major price differences!

RE: Antonov 124-100 at newcastle

They’re actually more common in the UK than you would think. They are regularly at EMA doing charters for DHL and I’ve also seen one at STN once.
Last time I saw it at EMA was two weeks ago (UR-82009).

RE: Good News…Airport Strikes Suspended !!!

I suppose it would be kinda good news if they were off, but I was kind of looking forward to them being on.
Apparently there may be a few diversion from LHR, LGW etc to MAN or EMA, which would be nice to see!

RE: Aviation In India!—-A Book!

Just got to add my congratulations on the book, great stuff Kab!

RE: And the worst songs this year?

SAAB – Completely agree with everything you’ve said above.
Michelle Branch is another that fits into the same category, she writes her songs, sings and plays the guitar in them. She hasn’t been that much of a success in the UK which I just cannot understand at all!
