Flight Crew Response Time for the QRA Scramble seemed quite likely to deteriorate come Summer!
"Old man said I was in some kind of time-warp, talking about our new bobcat. .. . carried on about something called the bamboo bomber . . lost me completely"

" Jones, just get in and stay with it . .. . . all that science talk of yours about co-efficients of friction and reynolds numbers and such .. . . far too theoretical . . .it's when it gets hot in the front I know we are travelling"

In-flight entertainment has come a long way since the early days when projectors were used to beam movies on a single screen in the centre of a plane

when Cinerama came out in the mid 60s there was an episode where the movie camera was mounted in the nose of a cresta run toboggan.. . .
