That's exactly what I thought!

Imagine if BA are trying to land one of their long-haul flights on the same runway that Amazon are trying to land a new popular motoring show. It could be absolute chaos in the air/on the ground, especially when you consider that a TV program isn't even an aircraft and frankly has no business trying to land at Heathrow anyway. I'm furious at their nerve and will be returning my Kindle in a bid to keep our runways clear.

You lot are clearly too young to remember BA!!

Sort of related. Looks like Amazon are clamping down on the opposition and banning sales of other makers tv
devices.

Cheers. I found Prime Video to be pretty crap anyway and after trying to get me to pay for it with the Prime membership I dropped it. Can't see why they can't just let it be played on a Chromecast.

I don't know - maybe I do? I thought Speedbird was the logo for Imperial Airlines, later BOAC and was adopted as a callsign then?

you are correct,

The Speedbird is the stylised emblem of a bird in flight designed in 1932 by Theyre Lee-Elliott as the corporate logo for Imperial Airways.

Doesn't happen often!

Oh - were we talking about Speedbird then ? Gotcha. I thought it might be just a typical PH off-topic ramble into old airlines.
