As it happens - yes Booths pork and apple variety. With mashed potato, cauliflower and broccoli, all covered in thick Bisto gravy.

Yummy.

Descending now. Well, the initial bit. I have a very strong feeling Checkers is PF and I am expecting a pacey arrival.

He views Mmo and Vmo as "targets" not "limits"

Ah, he's slowed down. ATC must have done that...

Why are the BBC showing Whitney Houston's funeral live on their 'web-site'? Everything is celebrity led these days. Rant over.

He wouldn't have done that intentionally... ATC do that to make room for some departures. The way Luton's laid out is that many aircraft need to back track. That takes time...

Get the kettle on Reddo.
I was just joking Reddo. Mind you, he could have been dropping off a stroppy passenger without bothering to land.

Well I hope you aviation types appreciate the £80m being spent on upgrading our runway,taxiway and other hard standing bits we're about to commence on. That's if the main contractor's have taken into account the size of the tides locally for getting the aggregate ashore.
