I ass-ume there's some kind of anti-FOD shield, but like to think there isn't.

That's what I was thinking too. Without it, one wrong move by the guy up front and he comes out as a fish bait from the rear end of that pipe.

Per, you should write a book with your memories both, the more recent ones and the ones from the times at high seas. I’m serious, I would buy it, especialy with a hand writen dedication from you. You have a talent for storytelling.

Russia is make superior aviation toilet

Clearly the latest in the fly by wire toilet technology. Way ahead of its time.

The current mishap reminded me of the 1967 story of the „Yellow Fleet” when 14 ships got stuck in Sues for something like 8 years. Crews from counties of both sides of Iron Curtain formed a country like society with their own hospital, postal office, even Olympic games. https://www.youtube.com/watch...

Kvas is in the "Things Not_Karlie would really like to try" list.

Easy to make yourself at home. Some dark ray bread, sugar or honey, yeast, water and raisins and some time to let the yeast do the work.

Very unlikely.

Kvass, the favorite East European carbonated soft drink since the middle ages. Much superior to imperialistic Coca-Cola. For best nutritional qualities must be purchased directly from the mobile street dispenser unit.

I do! Good to see you. Back from China I presume? Happy New Year everyone!

As promised, my poor attempt at translating a rather technical language: the pilot started putting the plane into the intended spin. For the still unknown reasons at this stage of the investigation, in the course of the performance the spin flattened. During the first two turns, longitudinal fluctua...

Few seconds before impact. In a moment of free time I will try to translate some of the preliminary report.

I like to dedicate my first post after a long brake to all of you who always wait for the final report and don’t pull too relentlessly. Here it is:

Yes it will

Thank you Guys. I may not be posting much lately but I'm still around.

What this thread needs is an Indiana Jones Nazi gold train kind of story, so here is one in case you haven't heard already: 'Nazi gold train': Poland asks treasure hunters to stop search Officials believe they have found the train said to carry gems and other valuables and urge enthusiasts to let th...

P_K, where are you in Canada precisely?

Kingston, Ont. right now and it seems we will stay here until Sunday when our flight back is.

I actually liked it, but then I'm on my way to Warsaw.
Per

Too bad I'm in Canada right now. Would like to invite you for something stronger. How long are you staying for?

Yes indeed. Back In August last year, Warsaw to Toronto and back. Over all a very nice aircraft. Very quiet, both on the inside and on the outside. On takeoff you get the feeling that it just wants to fly. It feels like it still has a lot of excess power available, should it be needed. I know it’s o...

Up front - Top secret North Korean anti-submarine veapon

A guy in Poland built a gigantic revolver. Then he fired it. RT reports that "It took Mr (Ryszard) Tobys around 2,500 hours to construct, since most of the parts had to be built by hand." The revolver fires 5 oz. bullets and is supposedly certified by Guinness World Records. The Pentagon ...

Just remember not to lick it afterwards.

Oy gevalt! A sheynem dank!

Thank you.

Me too.

Meteorites..., The Pope is abdicating..., the offsprings are coming back..., the signs are clear, end times must be near. Welcome back and stay!

Saw the LOT 787 sitting at ORD last night. Did you like the livery? BTW, in our ongoing support of Boeing Corporation we had exorcism performed on the other 787 sitting in Warsaw to rid the type of the evil spirits. http://bi.gazeta.pl/im/7b/36/c4/z12859003Q,Poswiecenie-dreamlinera-w-USA.jpg
