Brilliant! Loved the name calling bit.

Cheers. Will stick with the 738s but will save for DC10-10s. I take it either the range of the aircraft are way off or the distance between cities? Seems to be rediculous routes for some (most) aircraft.

I only manage to get mine out 3 times a day, 4 at the most. It’s taking a while to build up any money! Been at it since this thread started (plus a couple of weeks as I started again) and I still only have 2 738s, 3 ATR 42s and 3 ATR 72s!

Apologies Bee, no I am not. I actually, semi agree with you on that one. No doubt a parent would donate to a child. I was thinking from an idealistic Earthly scenario, when organs went to those who needed them most. Anyway, my point was, this girl doesn’t deserve anyone else’s.

Your sentiments (in many threads) is admiral Bee, but I fear you (we/mankind) are being too human. We are animals after all. Yes, we have developed greatly, far beyond anything else on this planet, but evolution dictates only the strongest survive. If the only liver available to her is her father’s, then why doesn’t he donate it to a dying doctor/scientist/engineer etc that may contribute something truly great to our race, rather than a girl who has misused this great gift (already, before).

This is by no means a reflection of anything Nazi-like, but would the human race be somewhere else (better?) right now if social cleansing existed? Eliminating poor genes from the pool? Not at random selection, but for heinous crimes and gross misconduct. The human race is a fascinating phenomenon and some people truly do take it for granted.

But one fact remains, they’ll never have a normal life. Imagine,never being able to go out with out the fear of being identified. Never being able to travel to other countries for a holiday. Hold down any important job. Have a wife and family and knowing your hiding a horrible secret. And finally the guilt,may be not for a few years,but as years go by the gnawing guilt will get worse. And depending on your beliefs,there’s some one who would like a word with these two one day.

First of a few things I was going to raise. Though I believe the above to be perfectly adequate for anyone in their position (not sure if you were agreeing with that or not). I’ve been wondering what must go through their minds when trying to find a girl/partner. You’d never be able to tell a potential partner that you did something like that when you were 10. Who would stay with you after that? So do you just forgo telling them and live your life as a lie? Or stay single forever?

Now, that is not me saying that that level of ‘punishment’ is acceptable. I’m not sure I could quite bring myself to execute two 10 year olds. I tend to sway to the idea of instead them being both locked up for their entire lives having to live and think about what they done, with their identities not hidden. That way, they may have to choose to be locked away in isolation in fear of attack. Further justified punishment.

Is there anyone here reading this from the US? If so, are you aware what the states that allow execution would do in this instance? Do they have a lower age limit?

I’ve often thought about creating another ‘Australia’ for today’s imprisoned, but more heavily guarded than Alcatraz and with fewer amenities. Though does Britton have an island big enough for them all?! Maybe the Falklands.

Quite so Dean. Natural selection – people not realising how to stay alive in life. The thing I find so absurd is that she’s only 24 and has is already putting two kids through this grief.

I thinked 27vet said it all really and it’s a bit of a shame it wasn’t touched on more (apart from Deano refering to rumoured wages). Bottom line, the vast majority in the western world get paid borderline excessive money to spend on many luxuries. I’m sure all of us here fall in to that category, and many of us wouldn’t want it to change. What these strikers need to realise is that they are being paid well enough as it is, compared to so many others. And as mentioned already, ‘take one for the team’ to keep the company going.

Oh, and perhaps it would be ‘breaking news’ the week some BA staff weren’t striking 😉
