Talking

and to think, they stopped funding TIRRS ages ago - yet another good decision
TIRRS has been defunct for quite some time...........because there is better equipment around
I'm impressed by the endurance.............
after spending 24 hours trapped in the cockpit of his mangled aircraft. John Russell, 64, from York, was spotted waving from a smashed window by one of three RAF Tornado jets that had been searching for him since first light yesterday.

I forgot to say well done..................... well done
