Inconsiderate driving – AGAIN!:(

Well if it pertains to something that made them better than the still in use GR9’s and GR4’s (the majority of Britain’s frontline aircraft at the moment) then giving it away wouldn’t just affect the retired Jaguar would it? It’d essentially point to a weakness in current aircraft.

Thanks. Now I understand, that makes a lot of sense.

Without diminishing the memory of those killed by the terrorists has anyone else noticed how the Scottish Parliament has insidiously become the Scottish government. The word “government” appears nowhere in the wording to describe the devolution of that legislature.

So, yes indeed, shame on the Scottish Parliament.

I think I feel sorry for her. But if SHE felt it would help who are we to criticise? There is nothing rational about praying. That’s the point – it is a purely emotional response based on faith, but if people are helped by it then good luck to them. Using social networking is only the 21st century way of instant communication. I dislike the whole thing but it doesn’t affect me personally.

In all my career, I’ve met, spoken too, and filmed the great and the good. Heroes, stars, rockers, politicians, presidents, popes, priests and CEO’s. In all that time there’s only been a couple of folk I felt required a “W” stamp applied to the forehead. Life is a wonderful thing, treat people well and reap the rewards. MOL doesn’t give a good ******* what we think, so let’s not lose too much sleep on the man.

By all means consider yourself as one of the public demanding “cheaper fares” if you wish. I prefer (as an aviation enthusiast) in all manner of ways to seek out the bigger picture. I really don’t think Ryanair see it my way at all. Perhaps a wider discussion ought to be opened up in the new year, as to where exactly the commercial airline business is going these days ?

I suppose you are saving those two names for the autobiog, although perhaps we do know one of them.

No I don’t because I no longer fly, although that has no bearing on my enthusiasm for aviation. A debate in the new year could be very interesting as there are many knowledgeable and opinionated people in these forums. I shall look forward to your thread.

Did anyone enjoy the Lego house as much as I did? That and the Meccano bridge are my favorites so far, perhaps because they were trying to overcome potentially difficult engineering problems, which none of the others were, in quite the same way.

Poor treatment of customers, horrendous customer service, a prevailing attitude that if you want it cheap then expect to be abused, cynical cabin crew, overworked flight crew, constant pressure to buy Pringles and cheap after shave, garish interiors, holding the proverbial gun at airport operators heads, pious ‘god-like’ delusions…

I’ve met Mr O’ Lousy personally, and I didn’t like him very much, smug, sneering and extremely patronising. That do… ?

I reckon you’ve just about covered it all there! Yet, despite it all they still fly, prepared to accept your list of horrors. Perhaps it’s a bit like Tesco – you struggle to find a customer who doesn’t complain about it but they still shop there.

I have heard him interviewed a few times and he certainly doesn’t give a toss and he talks straight and he doesn’t bull**** and So he has some merit.
