Blair Force One
 

"Honest Tone " has given the nod to the purchase of £100m worth or exec toys ... if only he had bought them earlier he could have used them on his" Farewell Tour" .. Bet thats one project which wont be late

It will be over budget though!

I wondered why Broon needed to strip pension funds - something about being comfortable in old age?

Best DAS ever!
 

Quote in yesterday's 'Sun' (so it must be true):
'Both aircraft will have the latest security devices and can destroy incoming anti-aircraft missiles. '
Best DAS ever, then??:hmm:

Anti-missile missiles... or point-defense lasers?

More likely Tone doing a mooney to the in-coming!! :E :}

Hope it's got a quick-change medivac option (or even cattle class seating) to bring the boys & girls from the front line home quic .... oh, sorry ..... must be ..... dreaming. Or something.:sad:



Sorry.
:(

Noticed that GB travelled to the US yesterday in a BA767 (and had to get very wet walking down the steps at Andrews, bless 'im)

For TB it was always a 777, for his trips to buddy-up with GWB.

Maybe it was out of operational necessity, or is this just another way that he's trying to tell us he's "different" (less extravagant and image-conscious) compared to his predecessor?

Let's hope so.
