Re: Will Ferrari leave or not?

I read in the Newspapers today that Mosley and Bernie softened their tone towards the rebelling teams, not to say that they are begging them to talk with Mosley and Bernie again. So far it seems that the teams don't want to speak with Mosley and that it they want to go so far that he resigns from hi...

Re: Nationality Roll Call!

Yes, I'd think "Letzeburgisch" is quite close to German. I can read about 95%, listening and comprehension not as easy of course. Similiar thing to Alsacian. Yep, it's an Mosefränkisches Dialekt, so it has German roots. But because we Luxembourger think we would be something better, we us...

Re: Another Old Member Surfaces

You can be a stickler for accuracy if you have the knowledge in the field you are 'correcting'. But who can say that FB has that knowledge. He's only a pilot. Where does his profound knowledge for maintenance come from, so that he can 'correct' other experts. I didn't see much of his posts explaini...

Re: From where comes this hole?

Yep, neither are true triangles...

Forget about the other shapes, the RED and dark CYAN triangles don't share the same side's ratio. Because of this, you can clearly see a "bend" where they touch.
But is the difference enough to create a whole square?

Re: Swine fever!

Now we have a third case, a 9 year old boy. He came back from a trip to Washington.DC,

The first one with the swine fewer diagnosed is free of the virus again. He got it on a trip to NY as also the second case we had.

Re: What happened in Luxembourg?

Saturday afternoon, a group of three classic cars got passed by two cars where one of them touched the middle (classic car). The driver of the classic car lost control and slid of the road. The two occupants of that car got ejected out of the car. The driver has only minor injuries but the passenger...

Re: Air France jet missing

Having done some Googling, it seems that 'Crew Rest' section may have come from a 'LDMCR' (lower deck mobile crew rest), a crew compartment that can be installed in the cargo area. Doesn't say anything much about the accident, but amazed me! at the risk of asking a stupid question: There's a stair ...

Re: Another Old Member Surfaces

I don't think it's any newsflash that Flyboy is a stickler for accuracy and has long called out anyone who is in the wrong....he's accurately corrected me several times. It's not like he's suddenly developed this disdain for Parlour Talking in the wake of Don's passing....he's been pretty consisten...

Re: Will Ferrari leave or not?

Nonsense. Bernie won't allow a devaluation of the F1 brand. There'll be an 11th hr (11:59) probably agreement and they'll all come out smelling of roses. Nothing to see here, just big boys showing each other their brightly painted penises. They want Mosley's head. And the old man doesn't want to .....

I would discuss it but it seems I have been banned from certain other websites.
But I would like to read your input about that crash, besides that it was because of cheap composites.

Re: 20 years ago today....

Congratulations Mrs. and Mr. Sindee. As we are approaching our 10th this year, I find it always reassuring that there are people who make it longer (or much longer - see OSB :mrgreen: ) than 50 % from Luxembourgish marriages. The divorce rate is now at 50% here. I wish you a splendid weekend for you...
