Senior long haul airline Captain recently retired, photographer and proud co-host of the Airline Pilot Guy podcast. Since I wrote it, it's my opinion!

@CurlyBill15 @xAviation Not really true Bill. We crossed at .82 and were regularly held up by twins at .78 like the B757 and B767.

@Z_Archer25 @HQNewsNow You arse! He's spent more time on the golf course than any president living or dead! 😑

APG 709 is now available...enjoy! https://t.co/lFtH0pHqeF

@stuabroad @miami_rick @apgcrew I stand by that Stu. Whilst any aerial phenomena is by definition unidentified until it has been successfully interrogated. During my service I never experienced anything that couldn't be explained, nor was I aware of any unexplained occurrences.

@VisitorPaul @xAviation F3. Why is that so hard to believe? 🤨

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@VisitorPaul @xAviation ❓❓❓ We used them on just about every landing! 🤨🤨🤨

@aestheticsguyy

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@CcibChris Accompanied by the usual fits of the whirling pits! 🤪

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@ron_eisele I was there a little after that doing a flying scholarship at the Fairoaks School of Flying. 😁👍

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@aviationarchive Sure, why not... just don't mention the F3. 😑

@CuttyRise @dmbkparker If all your power goes out you’re going to need more than a bloody Dalton Confuser! 😂

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@rjmatteis @dmbkparker So if your iWatch, iPhone, iPad all fail you’re going to hunt out your aged and dusty circular slide rule and trust that you can remember how it works! You’re better off declaring an emergency and landing at the nearest airfield! 😑

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@PilotAlan1 @dmbkparker Oh I don’t know. We don’t have to learn to use a slide rule before using a calculator!

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@xAviation And that's a good thing? 🥴

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@airmainengineer Sorry, calculating Lift. L= Coefficient of Lift x 1/2 air density x the square of Velocity x Wing Area.

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@airmainengineer Sure. It’s the formula for calculating the coefficient of lift! 😑

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@SClark51032281 @Turbinetraveler I'm curious to know how you differentiate between airframes and how your enjoyment is affected by the power plant! 😑

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@SClark51032281 @Turbinetraveler Really depends on the airline, not the aircraft type. They decide on the seat type, layout, configuration, amenities, cuisine, entertainment, cabin crew training etc which all contribute to passenger enjoyment. 😑

[@Old.Pilot @OldPlot]

@weegieman @BCalStewardess Sorry Jim but it looks like the 8th dwarf, Fugly! 😝
