OTD—Right about now, 1944. It took several hours for official reports confirming the invasion. Initial reports came from German news sources. Those up late on the west coast might have heard it live—Radio Coverage of the D-Day Invasion, https://t.co/RHBeBlm3yT via @YouTube
Any aviation enthusiast worthy of the title has seen the 1980 film ‘Airplane’ however, many don’t know that the comedy is based on a serious film from 1957. If you haven’t seen it, do yourself a favor🤣🤣it airs this evening on @tcm
Struggling??? Yeah, struggling to find an aircraft still equipped with the receiver or a procedure that actually uses one🤣🤣🤣….from a post on FB this morning
For anyone who’s ever faced a personal challenge, it doesn’t get much better than the 'Six Minutes' speech in VISION QUEST. This scene wasn’t in the 1979 novel by Terry Davis. Elmo's monologue was written specifically for the film by screenwriter Darryl Ponicsan (THE LAST DETAIL, TAPS). Actor J. C. Quinn absolutely knocks it out of the park here.
If you’d like to support the @FMJDiary project, you can bid on an original poster below. I signed and inscribed it with Elmo’s iconic line: “It ain't the six minutes... it's what happens in that six minutes.”

@Hush_Kit Simple, rugged design. Just not much to go wrong on that thing. Those spring steel mains can take a beating. The nose wheel steering can get a little sloppy at times, or develop a wicked shimmy. As a trainer or for your garden variety 40 hr/yr guy. None better
