@flightradar24 is FR24 down again ?. It’s taking ages for any airport data, arrivals and departures to load. Seems to be more clunky/sluggish after last update.
Replying to @DirectLine
@DirectLine at a time when car insurance is actually going down (mine has, and a number of my relatives insurance have), why has my fathers shot up from £700 to over £1100 ?. Absolute disgrace. Needless to say we won’t be using Direct Line any more.
Update: rang @DirectLine to see if they could price match, they could only get it down to £800 (from £1100). Enter @AdmiralUK who gave dad a quote of £477. Shame on you @DirectLine
Thank you @ring for having hassle free customer service. I had a defective battery (100% to 3% in 1 day). One phone call later and a replacement was sent… This is how things should work 👍
DLH470 B747 D-ABVM is currently returning back to Frankfurt (Originally FRA-YYZ). Reason unknown. I’ve literally just watched it loop back on itself over Sunderland. They are requesting lower level to burn off fuel. No 7700 as yet. #DLH470
Almost 10 years ago we bumped into the lovely @BrendaBlethyn filming a scene for @VeraSeries at The Steamboat in South Shields.
Some nice rudder action on this @emirates B777 @NCLairport. Excuse the heat haze, I’m not used to filming in double digit temperatures 🫠
This photo was taken on 29th August 2006 and shows the construction of the Emirates Tower @NCLairport #emiratestower
For those of you who can do the 3D Stereogram cross eyed thing, here’s a few nice ones of the Trident @manairport and @emirates B777 @NCLairport (3) #spatial #stereo
Looking back through some of my 747 snaps. 1) Wardair @NCLairport May 1986, 2) British Airtours @manairport 1985(?), 3) Northwest Orient @GPAPassenger 1984(?). #boeing747 @FlyNorthwestAir
Good to see the @ChildrensAirAmb van brimming with donations, the driver was struggling to load any more bags on. Nice to see people are kindly donating 👍
I definitely recommend visiting @TanfieldRailway this summer. Lovely scenery and friendly staff, not many places like this left these days 🚂 🩵 #tanfield #railway
