The problem was down to two different planes having the same name, in different area's. System shut down and the backup also failed for the same reason. They then default to the manual method where lands and take ofts are lower in number because they space them oot more. What the big media ootlets won't tell yer is there was never a safety problem as they was always in control. The problem caused a delay due to slower manual method. That is all. Systems are designed to fall over safely. It did.It was the way it said the aircraft would land every 20 seconds

They is powerful and smooth. Suffer from engine water leaks in the v of the v6. My hippo was a v6 before eye fitted the SD4. All the usual stuff applies like check the vcu with da one wheel up test OWUT. Mpg is poor. Aroung town and small A roads, expect 20mpg at best. 3 cam belts. Wonder why its doing nuffink. Is it broke'd. Tax will be very high but hopefully its still on the k option, which set the tax low at normal rates.Met an innerestin chap today who wants a bit of fencing done. During the convo appropo of nuffin he asks if anyone I know wants the kitchen he has in his garage gratis.. (Kev might thinks I, collection only) then as I'm on my way he says you wanna buy a nippo? Cheapy cheap. Errrmm,
V6ES 50k, the other side has been parked under a hedge for years by the look of it. Inside is nice though. Worth a punt @Hippo ?
2 planes with the same ID shouldn't have been allowed to be entered. Nobody tested for that

True but one would fink they would test ferrit iffit can be entered but aint allowed.
They woz both called Gertrude I think
Not really but when you are showing kids all over the landing beaches and explaining what happened at places like the Pointe du Hoc, for a few years...Also the gun emplacements especially a pair where one was overrun so the commander ordered the commander of tother to shell his place!Didnt know that bunker hunting was a thing.
and when you have friends who live in Cherbourg and go and stay with them often since 1981, you get to know a heck of a lot about what went on during the Normandy landings.
Took my kit car club over there too for several years, even met a bloke who had his own private museum stuffed with militaria gleaned from the area.
Recently went to this place with our mates , https://www.visitcotentin.com/patrimoine-culturel/airship-hangar/
Totally amazing!!
They had a model of the first ever (supposedly) 4 wheel drive lorry, which I may have put up pics of on here before.
Just about to go out but I'll see if I can find it later on.
