Our survey for teachers on #sustainability and climate change in the curriculum is open & we need your input. The UN Climate Change Conference (@COP26) is in November – insight from teachers like you will help inform the way we speak to decision-makers ➡️ https://t.co/jlOoejuhfL

@Tesco Hi, why are you packing bacon in non recyclable plastic when many recyclable plastic options exist and are already used? Never mind 2025 you should have done it already.

@ZacYates87 @RAFMUSEUM @AeroSociety @SBAP1 Hi Zac it's a PA28 we cut down from the lovely team @Sherburnaero we had some excellent lessons there. Definitely recommend.

[Allan Russell @All3nr]

2 years in the making. Finally showing our flight simulator at @RAFMuseum @AeroSociety @SBAP1

[Allan Russell @All3nr]

Only the best best Flight simulators have carpet tiles cut to fit on the walls. 😉brilliant progress over the last 10 days.

[Allan Russell @All3nr]

Sim assembly: Rear actuator,seats, 1 pedal in. Now cable routing & elec safety to complete. Keep up the good work guys @SBAP1 @AeroSociety

[Allan Russell @All3nr]

Marking out the rear actuator hole. Plates fixing the body to platform in place. struggling for work space-too many enthusiastic students😀

[Allan Russell @All3nr]

Test mounting simulator Actuators almost done. Thanks to @Siemens for the motors. 18 months of work coming together. See @SBAP1 in 2 weeks

Flight sim update: the team mount the simulator body onto the trailer. Next: cockpit fit out and actuators. @SBAP1 @BoeingUK @AeroSociety

[Allan Russell @All3nr]

Thanks to @Siemens for brill intro to motion control with members of our coding team from @RVHSchool @SBAP1 @BoeingUK

Flight sim progress report: Jessica and Sarah are getting the image screen fitted for pilots to look at. @BoeingUK @AeroSociety @SBAP1

[Ryburn Valley High @RVHS_school]

We have lift off! Students making great progress on a moving platform for our flight sim, supported by @boeinguk and @aerosociety @SBAP1

[Allan Russell @All3nr]

Here's the motion base of our flight sim welded in metal as per a wood model done by 2 of our 6th form. Next week? Check it fits together.

[Allan Russell @All3nr]

Hooray! Finally got the trailer to mount our flight simulator on. Motion platform next. 😄
