Jet & Prop by FalkeEins: March 2015
http://falkeeinsgreatplanes.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Jet and Prop by FalkeEins. Sunday, 22 March 2015. Daily Ebay photo find # 32 - captured Bristol fighter, AEG, Albatros B.I. On offer at the time of writing here. UK aviation magazines - currently on the shelves - why is Key Publishing so dominant? Firstly, I am not 'anti-Key' - that would be silly. I have already purchased 'Flypast', 'Jets' and 'Aeroplane Icons' this month alone! But that's probably because 'Britain at War' looks much like Flypast nowadays! Key purchased us last September. Personally...

What The Air Traffic Controller Saw: February 2013
http://lifeontheboards.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
What The Air Traffic Controller Saw. My Life On The Boards. Going Home The Best Way. Once upon a time, way back before Mount Vesuvius buried Pompeii, Pliny the Elder wrote that "Home is where the heart is." More recently, Thomas Wolfe qualified old Pliny's wisdom when he wrote "You Can't Go Home Again." True enough especially if you lived in Pompeii. What I get from these two guys is that you can't always follow your heart; even if it's heading home. Sunrise" By Steven Kenny. Here's a short epilogue.

What The Air Traffic Controller Saw: September 2013
http://lifeontheboards.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
What The Air Traffic Controller Saw. My Life On The Boards. Viewing Life Through A Skylight. I wondered what the rest of this small, southern town though of the noise. There was no military base here - only a civil airport that hosted a dozen or so commercial flights each day. Still, a fighter jet had clearly come calling. Though and would be there. For nearly 35 years. I recognized Jimmy; one of the guys from my barracks. He was working the Ground Control position. Jimmy turned, gave me a smile ...I cou...

What The Air Traffic Controller Saw: May 2014
http://lifeontheboards.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
What The Air Traffic Controller Saw. My Life On The Boards. Isaac Newton warned us that "what goes up must come down." That got me thinking about my first Supervisor at Big Time. Jon must not have believed Sir Isaac. Most of us controllers wished Jon would go up and never come down. You know; like Voyager I or II. He went up alright but didn't keep going. He came down; suddenly and swiftly. It wasn't a soft landing either. Old Idlewild Airport, now known as JFK. Mirrors and performance appraisals both ha...

Jet & Prop by FalkeEins: Vulcan's spirited Saturday display at RIAT 2015
http://falkeeinsgreatplanes.blogspot.com/2015/07/vulcans-spirited-saturday-display-at.html
Jet and Prop by FalkeEins. Wednesday, 22 July 2015. Vulcan's spirited Saturday display at RIAT 2015. Steven Hand photo reposted via FB. Saturday's very spirited and impressive display by Kev Rumens provoked a lot of comment on FB and elsewhere, some armchair pilots even going so far as to say that the Vulcan was quite close to stalling because of the angle of the climb out. I must admit the first time you see the video it's almost heart-in-mouth time! The Sunday at RIAT was still about the Vulcan.but...
