Let me guess, you flew MAN-JFK on G-BNWH?

Whilst there are the odd helpful people on there the vast majority of stuff on there is repetitive rubbish. You are unlikely to find anything on there that you need contribute to (As you can read them for free) that you can’t find on here, or dare I say it on pprune.

Moondance, have I ever told you, you are one lucky *******?

Remember Kenya is on a much increased security alert at the moment due to the recent-ish bombings, and if its anything like Lagos, well you only need to watch Lagos Airport on TV!

V1 is the speed at which you are committed to the taxkeoff
VR is when you pull back on the stick
V2 is the speed at which you get airborne (In theory)

Presumably something went wrong with a system somewhere, but as ever we will have to wait until a report has been issued, as there are so many different things that could have gone wrong.

If anyone is interested the 2nd LGW runway is being used as of yesterday evening up until the evening of the 23rd/24th due to work on the main runway during the night.

G-SJCH is the reg, and I remember that the first bit stands for Sir John, but can’t remember the rest of his name! Flood, do you know it?
