RE: VS008 LAX – LHR

Great review, sounded a great flight. Have you posted it on http://www.carsurvey.org/air/ ?

RE: B747

Nice aircraft… it’s getting olf, but all aircraft will do it eventually. It doesn’t look too old compared to the 741 – that is extremely old looking now.

RE: Airbus A319

Check the link – it’s an Airbus A319 of British Airways registration G-EUPV. I’ve flown on that very aircraft and sat in seat 17D on February 11th. It was a fantastic aircraft!

RE: alt

I done 37,000ft at tops on a 767. Concorde can cruise at a maximum altitude of 52,000ft… that must be amazing!

RE: Cuisine ?

so we do have a half-decent national dish then… fish and chips is okay, but i don’t eat fish, so it’s not so good for me.

roast beef and yorkshire pudding is extremely british and such a boring dish.

RE: Bizjets

Well Kabir,

After that link you gave to me earlier (which I cannot put because I can’t remember), it’s got to be the Boeing Business Jet. I know I’ve said on plenty of occasions that I dislike the 737, but I’ve also said the huge winglets make it look brilliant. It certainly is a fantastic aircraft on the outside and words cannot describe the interior!

RE: Queen mother’s funeral

I’m still in school but doing further education. I think my school should be ashamed of themselves for not letting us watch the funeral and not even holding a 2 minute silence.

I am even more anoyed at the fact that today was not made a public holiday (even if it was only for this year). The Queen Mum lived through everything. She was born 3 years before Orville and Wilbur Wright made their first ever flight. She never saw any of the things we take for granted today i.e. television, internet(!!) and other things.

I think the being at school, we are controlled too much and today, being such a day in history, we should have been given the opportunity to tune in and watch this lady put to rest.
