Danny, on behalf of all truckies, may I say how much I appreciate your kind words on our behalf. They are all the more appropriate as we are never ones to blow our own trumpet of course.

Having said that, Ukrainian truckies are clearly to be even more admired as throughout the entire 41 minutes sequence not a single in-flight meal is to be seen, let alone a cuppa, other than for the man who just wants to be alone in the downstairs room with a bay window.

All those knobs and switches, I wonder what they're all for? The last time I saw that much polling on the approach was on a Hastings. Had Mr Antonov got round to powered flight controls in the '60s? It would appear not.
