Here's a new short (under 15 minutes) documentary on the Boeing 367-80 from Mustard. Not sure some of the claims about the de Havilland Comet in the beginning are true, like the leaving passengers behind and so on. Anyone know? Check it out! #avgeek https://t.co/rWwNi86azC
Here's a look at the business class service on board Malaysia Airlines on a flight from Adelaide to Kuala Lumpur. What do you think? #travel#flightreview https://t.co/a5ZUm0Tioo
Do you remember when you were excited to visit airline lounges? I do. These days I've found them to be so busy that the whole experience is like visiting McDonald's during a kids birthday party... #travel#frequentflyer https://t.co/cde3Q0MteF
Does anyone remember the obscure Italian Savoia-Marchetti S.66 flying boat? I certainly hadn't heard of it until now. There are two videos, some cutaways and more here. What do you think? #avgeek#aviationhistory#flyingboat#aircraft#italianaviation https://t.co/YKg5Zjo3rs
Batik Air, anyone? Spotted a cheap business class fare from Hong Kong to Sydney on Google flights. Turned out to be a couple of hundred Euro cheaper (yes, really) on their website. Not a random one off either, all the days have the low price! #travel https://t.co/Sl6pUO4Lz8
Summer travel tip: Landed at Dublin Airport and looking to buy a Leap card for your onward bus journey - you can buy them from WH Smith in T1 Arrivals and Spar in T2 Arrivals. ๐
Looks like I've been writing articles about flights, lounges, aircraft and aviation trivia for 10 years today. Here's a look at some of my most popular articles - enjoy! #avgeek#travel https://t.co/zwBwBo7YFo
@MuseumCommodore I love Defender of the Crown, but Pirates! is waaaay better. Soooo much more to do, so much more going on, and so many more choices. Easily my favourite computer game of all time (though the 2012 XCOM is pretty close!)
@IqbaIAchieve@MuseumCommodore You didn't need to do that anyway if you had any spatial awareness and could work out where you were in your head (yes, I played the game a lot! :))
Does anyone remember the utterly gorgeous de Havilland Comet? Here's a great new documentary about the aircraft, as well as some interesting colour artwork made to illustrate the interior. What do you think? #avgeek#history#aircraft https://t.co/UTn5cmXZx0
I thought everyone removed the bag tags and barcode stickers from their luggage when they got home from the airport. Imagine my surprise when someone complained that check-in refused to remove the old tags from his bag... #travel#airport https://t.co/oHBHUrY6QP
The good people at AeroLOPA (everyone's go to for airline seating plans) have produced the Qantas Project Sunrise A350-1000 seat map. What do you think? Comfortable for 20 hours in the air? #avgeek#travel https://t.co/FcMQI4DH7R
Cathay Pacific turns 80 and they're already knocking it out of the park! I love a short film - and a little marketing blitz - to celebrate a birthday, not to mention vintage uniforms. Check it out! What do you think? #avgeek#travel#frequentflyer https://t.co/6q6j5GwU2e
@DublinAirport Well, I've been hoodwinked then! haha! Thanks for that, very good to know... (and you were waiting for someone to say that, weren't you? :))
Here's my review of Turkish Airlines business class on the midnight flight from Kuala Lumpur to Istanbul. What do you think of TK? #travel#businessclass#flying#avgeek https://t.co/w7784z0dO6
Something they never really got a handle on was a permanent repair to Concorde rudders. At a certain point, they started breaking off during supersonic flight, which looked pretty bad. Here's the story - and the pictures. What do you think? #avgeek https://t.co/MRlaCJsmOe
I think it's fair to say I don't like having to pay to select a seat in business class... what do you think? #travel#frequentflyer https://t.co/F1Ey2OI7fI
