eating, cycling and flying a big-ass 747 all over the world. pretty standard.

@vrtnws Oudere? Die dingen zijn 2-3 jaar oud, dat is extreem jong! 🤣

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@scottjohnson But probably a “this times” lunch and not a “their times” lunch.

@BBCWorld The steps people take to avoid luggage surcharges…

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@JenBriney No problem, I understand your reasoning. Unfortunately it gets treated like that in most media: it’s JUST cargo and they forget about it in 24h.

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@JenBriney regarding your remark on werenotwrong: “JUST” a cargo plane…that hurt. Please think about the crews on board next time you say something like that, they are not JUST cargo pilots.😢
Plus this had (probably) NOTHING to do with the shutdown. Still a fan. AND cargopilot

@vrtnws Vraag tenminste iemand die iets kent van vliegtuigen en zo voor u zo zever publiceert! Please!!!
Boven Bulgarije hebben ALLE vliegtuigen last van GPS jamming en spoofing (2 verschillende dingen), plus mees al landen vliegtuigen met gebruik van grondsystemen (ILS)

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@ReutersWorld Sorry to say but that is click bait reporting. I expect more from this account. How many millions of people like online shooting games? We don’t go around shooting up schools. Please do better

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@Starbucks maybe take a look at how things are going at The reserve in Seattle to help you figure out why things are going wrong with the company. This is a joke. (And I am a huge fan normally)

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@JustinRYoung do the pro-tarif guys don’t understand that VAT in Europe is the same as Sales Tax in the US? So it is not a tarif only on US goods, it applies to ALL goods. This the actual (approximative) average tarif is 5%-3% so yeah reciprocal tarif would mean adding 2% or so.

@tomvandeweghe @BelgianTankie @Yale Was een oprechte vraag van mij. Want ik herinner me dat tijdens COVID de druk toch een beetje te groot leek te worden en ze daarom van een moment op het ander alles weer open gooiden. En nee nooit in China gewoond maar kom er wel heel regelmatig.

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@JenBriney at least we have eggs in Europe. 😉 (sorry for the trolling but just saw this at the market and started laughing)

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@JenBriney Then how is he (Elon) getting away with all that he’s doing?!? This is just bonkers.

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@jeffcannata Sorry I see it a bit differently from the outside. (And I HOPE it’s not the case)
But if you only look at it this way and blame chauvinism/sexism then I fear you miss the real reasons and are doomed to make the same mistakes in the future.
(FYI I REALLY hoped she’d win)

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@MightyHeaton Thank you very much for your recommendations. I’ll know what to do for them next few hours in the airplane 😉

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@MightyHeaton do you have an “basics” economics book you would recommend (yes university level or so) for someone who wants to learn just out of interest?

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@JenBriney Not sure if it’s any different on Airbus though. 🤷‍♂️ (we COULD maybe find out via other systems that would be impacted but only if you already know something is wrong)

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@JenBriney look up Cargolux losing gear. The guys didn’t even know it broke off, so yes losing a wheel is not something us pilots would notice/know about until someone tells us about it. (There are no warning systems for that in the cockpit)

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@JustinRYoung But where does she say she believes he’s still capable? Because this is NOT that.

[Dolf Denkens @flyboy747]

@JustinRYoung If only there was a way to make sure people know if it’s sarcasm or not 🤣
