    RE: Whats been your fav 10 songs of this year so far?

    [updated:LAST EDITED ON 11-11-02 AT 10:57 AM (GMT)]Ahhh…Nat King Cole, the greatest silkiest voice that ever lived. Closely followed by Louis Armstrong of course. And Cole Porter is an inspired choice.

    In the first picture is the hand supposed to be giving a rude gesture?

    RE: Aviation merchandise online

    There is a very good book shop near me (near West Drayton) called the Aviation Hobby Shop. I would imagine that they probably advertise in Airliner World and probably have a website.

    Thank god, I thought it was just me who thinks the ATR is pig ugly! (How can I get away with saying that when I have just fought for the merits of the Shed on another thread!)

    RE: Boeing to scrap sonic cruiser idea!

    Dazza, I agree that Boeing got a shock with the volume of orders for the A380 but I believe their major mistake was the NG versions of the 737. They should have developed a new short haul aircraft using modern technology, a mini 777 if you like. What on earth they were thinking of when they adopted the 717 god only knows!

    RE: Boeing to scrap sonic cruiser idea!

    Agreed, they’ve got to do something quickly. Whatever it is, it shouldn’t just be another revamp of an existing type. I remember saying in another thread that I didn’t think a 60mph speed increase would be enough to make the Sonic Cruiser worth it.

    RE: UK Pic of the day.

    Some while ago BA were doing trials with a new form of ILS called MLS (Microwave Landing System). This system allowed a fixed ground installation to transmit vertical and horizontal guidance but the aircraft can approach on any particular track and any angle of glidepath it chooses (unlike an ILS which has 1 track and 1 true glidepath). The 757 fleet (and I believe a few other aircraft) were given distinct nose markings as a reference point so that they could be tracked by observers on the ground and the actual track and glidepath flown could be checked against the instrument selected track and GP.
    I only know this because my brother used to fly BA 757’s/767’s and I asked him a few years ago!

    I probably couldn’t even name 10 but looking at what you’ve written above I do agree with Avril Levigne, Coldplay and Oakenfield.

    Most aircraft seats break forward like that. It allows easier exit in the event of a crash and reduces injuries to the passengers during rapid deceleration.
