Missing children being trafficked by white men in Florida. 163 of them. Not by brown immigrant men, but by fucking white dudes. What’s happening to America?

My daughter poured her heart into this school project . A bit of support would mean everything to her.

What a difference Dolly made in so many lives.

[Jazz⁷ @sleepingpixiee]

Dolly actually has a song she recorded and has it locked in a “dream box” which is not to be opened until her 100th birthday in 2046.

The song is called ‘My Place In History.’

Idk, it’s kind of a comfort that we still have music to come from her.

[Donna Brazile @donnabrazile]

Dolly Parton spent decades quietly funding band uniforms and instruments at Black high schools across the South - never once putting her name on it. No headlines, no fanfare — just help, given because it was needed.

Rhinestones on the outside, gold on the inside. 💛

A sad day for Celtic music in Ireland. Moya Brennan, the voice of Clannad, sister of Enya and vocalist on Chicane's Saltwater, has passed away peacefully in County Donegal, aged 73😢

Rest in eternal peace, Moya 🕊️ 🕊️

Under my Administration's new rule, Americans are entitled to a refund if a flight is canceled or significantly delayed – regardless of circumstance.

I know folks are fed up with the service they’ve gotten from airlines when something goes wrong, so we're fixing it.

@ATRightMovies Not a film but a music video with Kate Bush called Cloudbusting. He's incredible in it, of course! https://t.co/87Ax3TvAy1

In April 1985, an extraordinary event took place over the Irish Sea, captured by Adrian Meredith in what would become the only photo of Concorde flying at supersonic speed. Adrian, who was flying a Royal Air Force (RAF) Tornado jet, had the opportunity to participate in a planned rendezvous with the legendary Concorde.

The Tornado, a versatile and powerful combat aircraft developed and used by the RAF, was primarily designed for air defense, ground attack, and reconnaissance missions. While it could match Concorde's cruising speed, its fuel consumption rate was significantly higher, allowing it to sustain that speed only for a matter of minutes.

Despite the Tornado's capabilities, capturing the iconic photograph posed a unique challenge. To maximize its speed and keep up with the Concorde, the Tornado was stripped of all non-essential equipment. The crew made every effort to maintain the pace, racing to catch up with the Concorde as it soared through the skies. However, due to the Tornado's limited endurance at high speeds, the crew had to make the difficult decision to break off the rendezvous after just four minutes. Meanwhile, the Concorde, an engineering marvel of its time, continued its journey, gracefully cruising towards its destination at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK).

Despite the Tornado's formidable capabilities as a combat aircraft, it could only briefly keep pace with the Concorde's supersonic flight. The juxtaposition of these two aircraft highlights the distinct roles they played in aviation history—the Concorde as a pinnacle of supersonic passenger travel and the Tornado as a versatile military workhorse.

Together, the Tornado and the Concorde symbolize the remarkable advancements in aviation technology during the late 20th century. Their fleeting rendezvous over the Irish Sea and the remarkable photograph captured during that encounter stand as a testament to the ingenuity, dedication, and pursuit of excellence that define the aviation industry.
