Because UTC time is so common in aviation, I was wondering if there is any watch out there that can help me convert UTC to LT at a glance. I know about GMT watches but they can only tell you the current LT and UTC, not so useful when figuring out when in LT will future weather conditions occur in a TAF for example. Any recommendations?

Ok so thing go up every year, never down?
But a 450% increase? WTH?
This is completely unsustainable for 99% of the population?
What happens now?
Who can pay this?
But more's the question? WHY? 96% of my energy is green!
I am now going full on self supporting. I don't care what it costs. I have to get out of this.
What are yours doing? Read More

There are a lot of soundings at the moment in relation to Eastern Ukraine and the possibility that Kiev Government will look to conduct a major attack on this area.
In 2014 the people in this area disliked the Maidan Sq protests and did one of the own which was attacked by Kiev. As this area is populated by people with more Ethnic ties to Russia... Read More

A little surprised this doesn’t already have a post running.
What are peoples thoughts on the current strikes?
Everyone around the country has faced pay issues over the past few years.
I think pay is the red herring in this dispute. The rail network in this country is from the prewar era. Massive modernisation is needed but the unions re... Read More

Was just reading a few articles that made me ponder this question. Can’t ever see it happening, but is an interesting idea to contemplate.
The analogy was that the US is like a married couple who are beyond saving but stay together for the sake of the kids and make everyone around them miserable.
I honestly can’t see divisions in the US get... Read More

That odious little person, Bernie Ecclestone, is proving many right in their dislike of him when he was 'big' in F1.
As for offering to "take a bullet for Vlad Putin, because he's a first class person", he would be surprised by how many fully supported him in his offer: please step forward, Ecclestone. As an indication of the true level of Ecclest... Read More

Some of my earliest proper memories are of my dad attaching collars to his RAF shirts after towelling condensation from the bedroom windows before heading off to work, leaving an aroma of grilled breakfast kippers in his wake. This may not actually have been all that regular, but to a 6 year-old in the early ’70s, it’s the apparent daily truth.... Read More

Way back my Mum, who had travelled Gemany and Austria extensively in the '50s and early '60s used to cook us a wonderful supper of potatoes, bacon and onion all together in a huge frying pan (with lard, of course) until it was going crispy and then added cheese and a fried egg to serve. Clearly this was in the days when mothers didn't feel constrai... Read More

I try to avoid checking luggage at all but with a few longer trips approaching thought it would be interesting to keep an eye on them in the new era of luggage growing legs.
