    Okay, so I did not give up, here is my second try at decoding.

    Pure business smashing by runway, others take any old yaz, should you be wanting 100 quid (pound) chinas!

    The sentence may seem a bit odd, but then, it was originally spken by a drunk! 😀

    You’re getting there, but still not quite a native Glasweigian yet. To be fair you do a better translation attempt than I do at Dutch.

    Tonight as ever I have no beers on a Friday, owing to my contractual obligation not to kill any children with a large crane mounted TV camera, live on BBC1 between 9am and noon. As tempting as it is however ? 😀

    Detection of missiles? And what about the proximity of aircraft movements at Heathrow for instance. Will the detection system be able to differentiate? I dont think so. “El Al already has a system installed”. Really?
    I’m afraid that this risk is very real – it was real back in the 1970’s at Belfast, but there is no practical defence in the real world.

    I agree, all it would take is one hit or near hit and people will stop flying anyway. The risk is real and but for the grace of god and counter terrorism it hasn’t happened yet. Personally I’d spend the money stopping arms falling into the wrong hands.

    Having watched a doc on Discovery Wings the other week showing the proto 707 in a barrell roll I assumed you could do the same in a 757. The actual turns were not a million miles away from the angle ahown in the “first pic” 😎

    the top photo is on its side, you can see the clouds in the background are on their sides, so the aircraft must be too! and if you put it the correct way up, the turn is hardly anything. strange to see touch and go’s though, thats cool.

    Doh ! ya got me, the spot the fake prize is in the post 😀

    As for the touch and goes, you can see them a lot at Prestwick.
