August 1, 201511 yr That private jet that came down in Hampshire yesterday Had 4 members of Bin Ladens family on it. Hmmm Shot down by the RAF. (Possibly from Bolton) Fact
August 1, 201511 yr Bin Laden's family were just about to enjoy a holiday in Torquay? Or maybe Bournemouth?
August 1, 201511 yr 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.
August 1, 201511 yr 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
August 3, 201511 yr 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
August 3, 201511 yr Author 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
August 3, 201511 yr I wonder if they double park them at the side of the runway with the hazards lights on They just fly em into shit. Parking is for infidels.
October 31, 201510 yr 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.

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! :-)

Alcohol then sleep works best for me. RIP. it's the little planes that scare me. I was on a propellor one last week and there was no alcohol either.
October 31, 201510 yr 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?
October 31, 201510 yr 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
October 31, 201510 yr 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.
October 31, 201510 yr I doubt Putin will be getting a message of condolence from the Dutch anytime soon.
October 31, 201510 yr More planes falling out of the sky since Big E stopped working on them......coincidence?
October 31, 201510 yr it's the little planes that scare me. I was on a propellor one last week and there was no alcohol either. 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!
October 31, 201510 yr 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. They are designed in a way they wouldn't
October 31, 201510 yr 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! Oooooo look at me. I live in horwich and fly for work
October 31, 201510 yr 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!
October 31, 201510 yr They are designed in a way they wouldn't 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?
October 31, 201510 yr 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 Edited October 31, 201510 yr by Big E
