That documentary about the Red Arrows last night.

:hehe:

At one point we were breathlessly advised that a chap was struggling to maintain consciousness as he pulled +3. :hehe:

[Berni]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Not really worth the effort, tbh.

[Pat Vegas]

Where do you stand Sir C.

Airbus approach. Take the human out of the equation?
Or Boeing use the technology to assist the human?

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Red Bull something or other, flying in and out of obstacles.

Nobody crashed mind you.

[Pat Vegas]

I thought it was going to be boring but it was highly entertaining and one lady kept losing her rag and pushed the other woman into the wall.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

One of the most common phrases taken from Airbus Cockpit Voice Recorders is, "What's it doing now?", as the aircraft changes direction for no obvious reason. However, a good training regime at a good airline will ensure that the crew remain a step ahead of the computer, and if they do so, the system works well.

It is an entertainment industry.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

They might want to think about giving the poor sods some new aeroplanes, mind.

If you like the subject you should learn to fly. It's a man's pastime and no mistake.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Mind you, it did make me think... two Malaysian Triple-7s lost in a month? And one disappears completely? It IS a bit strange.

I'm going to make a new tinfoil hat.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

The poor buggers would only be sweeping the hangar floor.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

F1 is boring when they are not crashing.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

[redgunamo]

once you've divided them up amongst all the different services. Plus, reapers are helping to put us all out of business too.

It used to be a man's game, alright :-|

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

The sky Gods will be angered.

[Ben.]

I wasn't being ironic.

[barrybueno]

maddest thing I've ever watched tbh

[Berni]

Imagine: You pour yourself into your car after a skinful and they can't f**king touch you. Brilliant.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

You were very drunk weren't you.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Powered by electric motors. :cloud9:

Then we can all have our brains replaced with microchips and work at the turnip factory according to instructions.

Yes, Number 62, that sounds marvellous!

[Berni]

They're going to be scuttling about inside a couple of years. :-)

They'll have to outlaw driven cars eventually. Humans can't be trusted.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

[barrybueno]

It just seemed mad these little agile planes were darting about in the middle of London with Canary Wharf etc in the background.

so I shall have my hands full, in any case (it's always much more involving in the Winter).

In a word, f**k 'em.
