N917FD arrived at Manchester at 0533 on the 5th. Can’t find the ATR yet.
Military types appear courtesy of a system called MLAT which effectively triangulates Mode S signals. It isn’t as accurate as ADS-B.
FlyBE Dash 8s and other light types are now appearing because of MLAT and not ADS-B. It says T-MLAT in the radar box on the left side of the screen

Avro tended to use set numbers, up to and including the ATP. For Vulcans, I’ve seen XH558 quoted as set 12 but I have no idea where that’s from.
Perhaps we do and we take them as read and only get excited by articles about our so-called transgressions. Hindsight judgements are equally invalid whichever side you are/were on.
But history is all about hindsight. It wouldn’t be history otherwise.
Trying to get the thread back towards the OP’s point (rather than another diatribe against immigrants), the Bomber Command campaign was controversial even when it was happening so it cannot be “revisionist” to declare it so. No-one is denying that those that took part were brave beyond believe but what is being questioned is whether 55000 deaths was a price worth paying towards the eventual outcome. Up until 1943 Bomber Command was woefully inaccurate and lives were wasted for little or no gain. That is not “revisionist”, that is fact.
It is also known that Harris did not favour accurate precision attacks but rather a carpet bombing effort against the civilian population. His opposition to Chastise is also well-documented. His approach may well have been based on earlier experience but it doesn’t alter the fact that Bomber Command undertook a deliberate assault on the German civilian population right up until virtually the end of the war, when the outcome was almost certain.

Or to paraphrase:
“I can’t think of any possible explanation as to why an ‘official’ having to enter one number rather than another on a data entry form will bring down the NHS, schools, nurseries and all the rest of the fabric of society as I’d previously suggested, so I will try and divert people’s attention and hope they don’t notice I have made a foolish posting”

Nice try. What I said was that anyone who fills in the census form incorrectly in general terms shouldn’t be surprised when the data comes out in error. As well you know.
In fairly typical fashion, and like many others, you resort to exaggeration and twisting of the words in a attempt to belittle. Well, it hasn’t worked.
I have to say that I didn’t realize sniggering about what you filled in on a official form like a 12 year old constitutes a “sense of humour”. I think some of us have moved on a little more than that.
Anyway, time to move on again as the playground mentality seems to have broken out. Again.

Not having the same sense of humour as MoggyC:-
a) does not make me or anyone else po-faced
b) does not mean I do not have sense of humour
c) is a good thing, in light of the Savile thread
As well you know, I was referring to the census in more general terms. Putting Jedi as a religion only makes you look like one thing and one thing only and I reckon you can guess what it is….
..the forum rules forbid me from stating it explicitly.

As I said, it certainly lacks originality. 390000 numpties together.
Presumably those that think it’s hilarious to fill in the census form wrongly will also think it’s hilarious when there aren’t enough hospital beds, nursery places, schools etc….
On second thoughts, no, they probably don’t.

You didn’t. It was others earlier on. Did I say you had?
