Looks to have been shot down.

Shot down by the RAF. (Possibly from Bolton)

 

Fact

Shot one down!

Bin Laden's family were just about to enjoy a holiday in Torquay? Or maybe Bournemouth?

He certainly had a daughter-in-law who lived in Northwich.

Two down today. One at Car Fest at Oulton Park and a Spitfire at Biggin Hill. It's like one of those weird films with planes dropping out of the sky at the moment

More wreckage has washed up

That private jet that came down in Hampshire yesterday

 

Had 4 members of Bin Ladens family on it.

 

Hmmm

which is a pity I believe the plane could hold 8

 I wonder if they double park them at the side of the runway with the hazards lights on

I've done 15 flights in the last 3 weeks and although I know it's the safest form of transport, every time there's a bleep or a jolt, I still get a little apprehensive.

 

Alcohol then sleep works best for me.

 

RIP.

Apparently it's no safer than driving on the road. It's just the way that the statistics are put together. If you base it on deaths per hour for both forms of transport - it's about even.

 

Happy trails! :-)

it's the little planes that scare me. I was on a propellor one last week and there was no alcohol either.

I'm not that keen on them but apparently they are safer?

are they? That's interesting, I didn't know that. It's the noise I think, I'm used to quiet of the big fuck off things mainly. Plus the propellor ones seem to over shoot runways I hear

I flew to Ireland on a turbo-prop plane and for the whole journey wondered which of the three blades just outside my window would come through the fuselage and chop me in half.

I doubt Putin will be getting a message of condolence from the Dutch anytime soon.

More planes falling out of the sky since Big E stopped working on them......coincidence?

Malaysian backed militants!

I flew to Southampton on Thursday on one, pretty much got blown sideways by the cross wind as soon as it left the ground. Saw the flight before us do the same.

 

Fun times!

They are designed in a way they wouldn't

Oooooo look at me. I live in horwich and fly for work

Haha, could have predicted that from you word for word. Surprised it took you so long!

Obviously I'll bow to your superior knowledge but I always thought centrifugal force worked aurally in all directions so my next question is

 

How do you engineer the direction of something falling from a centrifuge?

If they fail they are designed to fail in a way that it wouldn't hit you. I have a drawing of it somewhere from uni.

 

It does confuse me though.

 

Reinforcing on fuselage too

So, to summarise

 

If the prop falls off its ok because that won't kill you, and you can get on with being spread all over a mountainside like jam instead.

 

Comforting.
