@airtattoo.bsky.social might have had mixed weather this year but it was still a great show. The fact that the E-7 was being piloted by the brother of my wife’s childhood friend was also a nice surprise! Roll on RIAT 2026!

Ryanair has threatened to go to COMAC before and as others have said, the C919 does not and won’t have EASA certification for a number of years yet so it’s a bluff I feel.

Opening Line - Let us begin, I was right and romaine right about everything I did as PM. What happened to the economy was very arugula cos I’m no butterhead, I’m a little Gem

You obviously gave very good instructions on what the 757 looks like👌

So happy for Mr Panda and you too Niall. An emotional rollercoaster with a great happy ending❤️

Watch out, you might get investigated by the Stewards and get a seat placement penalty for your next commute! Nice move though 👍

Take a distinctive livery and change it to a bland mess, well done Korean, I’ll give it a 0/10

Best eating a Sandwich. It was delicious 😋

It’s always a case of “What if?” but I do believe we might still have a bigger aviation manufacturing industry if a few of those had made it to production, sold well internationally and we had kept up having multiple manufacturers with a healthy development pipeline

Completed my annual trip to MOTAT in Auckland today. I love coming here and have been most years since my first visit in 2009. Such a great aircraft collection and there is nowhere else on Earth you can get see 2 of Short’s finest flying boats together and safely undercover

Wondering whether the boat I saw today has an owner into F1?!

Has long been one of my favourite aircraft. Quirky design and a unique sound, love them!

DH.88 Comet, DH.91 Albatross, Sea Hawk

Surely call it Rivet Junior?!

As an F1 fan, I want it it be Lewis but in reality I think Charles will edge it. We’ll have to wait and see but given I’m in the Team Papaya camp, I do want Ferrari to go well this year but not tooooo well!

Richard Mille, they also sponsor McLaren

What a cool fish Kevin is!

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋

I might be Team Papaya but I like this!

I am Heath France or maybe Heath Francaise to add a bit more Gallic flare!

As the Triceratops has always been my favourite Dino, I know what I’d be going for!

I really do love how we now have lots of non-red tomato varieties to grow now. Makes salads a whole lot more colourful!

Especially given it wasn’t that long ago in F1, Driver Numbers were based on where your team finished in the Championship (Apart from No1).

Beautiful to see 😊 When I was a child we always had them in our garden but sadly quite rare these days.

I love these and have bought and grown them on for many years. I love the way the patterns can vary so much 🌱

Maybe affecting her Book sales and Public speaking bookings. What’s the phrase again…

I’ve heard that from a number of people, it’s good to know. With so many historical rarities, I know I’ll just be standing and staring for ages around some of them so will definitely need the extra time!

The No1 reason/aircraft why the USAFM is on my to do list!
