I think you are right. biggrin

My favourites are when readers comment on all the photos they have of a slim healthy women in bikinis (usually a model) and all comments are along the lines of "She needs to eat a burger" or "bag of bones, needs to put on weight". I am guessing these are from fat people who consider themselves to be normal and don't like to be reminded of the truth!

I really must try and stay away from that site but in can be comedy gold sometimes...
The Daily mail is rubbish but the comments are comedy gold. It's the only free news paper app or have things moved on a bit?!?!

This one's been doing the rounds on Facebook, they took off from Shanghai in 2017 and landed in San Francisco in 2016!

I didn't get a picture but on ADS-B exchange there were two Sentry's up for a lot of later on today, one NATO, one RAF with a couple of Ospreys and a couple of Apaches buzzing around near them.

There were 2 or 3 B77Ws with them too. There would have been another A380 out to their left, in fact it was way out to their left that morning. Guessing Thursday morning if it was posted at the same time. Looking at the colour of the lines they were being picked up by ADSB on Christmas island. The controllers don't have a feed from Christmas island. Out there it is all ADSC/CPDLC and sometimes HF.

There's a set of north south and east west airways that all cross around the Brecon area. Like you say looks cool on a clear day.

Just woken up about 10 mins ago by the loudest jet engine I have heard outside an airshow or something military... was a Virgin 747 going around by the looks of it - rather windy out there!

The Aussie was a new C-27J on delivery from Italy to L-3 Comms in the USA for outfitting.
