@SingaporeAir Multiple forms over past few days. I’m trying to make plans now. Response times differ from 4-15 days. Why is it so hard to answer simple request? Can I change return flight??Why do you leave customers on hold for hours and hours? Really,why? The app doesn’t help.

[Sailrocket @sailrocket]

@SingaporeAir We have sent multiple online forms to every contact as suggested with no replies. Contacted you via Facebook, Bots, every airport contact numbers etc etc we want to change a departure date from 3rd Jan to 1st of Jan.

@SingaporeAir Impossible to get anyone to answer yr customer services phone or email to change a departure date on a ticket from Melbourne-London, it’s now been days of trying to call you. #nightmare

RIP Chuck Yeager. Sailings fastest ever craft was painted "Glamorous Glennis" orange in homage to the man and the legend. Thanks for the inspiration.

We joked during the build that the expected "pitch instability" would be a nice problem to have as it was expected to be in the low-mid 50 knot range. Trouble was I didn't have a visual speed readout in the cockpit. Turned out Malcs calcs were spot on. 52 knots and up she went!PL

@hmbark It was actually super-"ventilated". An air breather:) Propellors operate in a different environment (often in one cycle). More an adaption of high speed rudders, with a few tricks for purpose. It was a very unique concept, as was its environment. Nature never cracked it. P

Pip often quotes the fact that more men have walked on the moon than women have finished the Vendee Globe. Thus the soundtrack to this video of friend, team and family seems appropriate as they send her motivation to fulfil her dream and join those resigning this fact to history.
