One last time with feeling. My last fight of 2024 and I’m flying home for Christmas avoiding you know who…🎅🏼… although I travel for a living… it always feels a little special to get home on Christmas Eve. If you’re traveling this holiday or already at home celebrating,I wish you all a very merry Xmas
A slightly unexpected final trip before Christmas. A quick trip to #Vancouver for some last minute Xmas shopping. 🛍️
Was hoping for some snow to get me in the festive mood… but it’s bit wet and mild… more grinch than Whoville.
Anyone else off for a last minute shop?
Last chance to order today for Christmas delivery from Amazon of tales the AvGeeks favourite military aircraft, Hercules.
From Khartoum to Kabul the best stories always include a beer and a Hercules. A great last minute present for that AvGeek in your life.
Some stunning photos and just a whisper away from that big Boom. I’m really excited about the potential of this project and the way it will open new markets for supersonic travel in a way Concorde never could. 🙌🏻
What do you think, a winning formula or a pipe dream?

It wasn’t.
I’m trying not to. But so many apps.
So I did a thing today…
For those that know me well, this is a big thing for me. Pooped my pants. But the views were absolutely stunning. Had the support of my buddy as we ripped up the beaches and landmarks of #RiodeJaneiro
I find it astonishing that this wreckage has been floating around potentially for over a year. Hopefully this will now give the family some closure. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Love it. Where did you catch it ?
😂😂
My fee is extortionate so I’ve no idea who they can do this for free. 😆 #worksforchicken
Good work.
An old warrant officer once said to me, “The standards you walk past, are those you accept as your own”. In recent context, if you know of workplace abuse and don’t report it, you are as much part of the problem as those involved. Don’t walk past, don’t ignore it, we must never accept this.
Just noticed this is a classic -200. 🙄
I flew all of the retro livery -400’s.
Happy work birthday 🎂
Must have a pressurisation issue.
Hope the dogs 🐕 enjoyed it.
Say hi 👋🏻
Ewwwww. I hate that.
It’s another day…so it must be another Denver. I’m on a bit of a run of visits to The Mile High City. A quiet one this time as I focus on developing a couple of projects for next year. Hopefully some nice views today too and no wind. What are you up to today online friends ?
Was…not now…will be again.
This is in Denver.
Sadly no.
Boom 💥 Winner 🏆🏅
Nope
This Bomber was converted into an anti-submarine warfare platform. Not the first ASW aircraft but it was one of the first to deploy an anti-submarine technology that is now commonplace. What was that tech ?
