Re: Flightradar24 fans

Hey @IanF , help me understand. I understand that during turbulence the plane could fall and people would be weightless, but in so many of these stories you hear of people hitting the plane roof with force, as if the plane is being 'pulled' down faster than gravity. What gives? I am not a pilot, bu...

Re: The Movie Thread

Anatomy of a Fall (Prime) Very, very confusing. Watched it in two sittings as I fell asleep first time round although that's not the film's fault. The lead is fantastic, carrying the whole film, and the plot leaves you guessing with no obvious outcome. I do hope the portrayal of the functioning of ...

Re: Your fleet running reports

I have discovered that if you put the M135i in to 'TRACTION' mode (a single press of the TC button) it pops and crackles like an absolute motherfucker on the overrun - about as much, if not more than in sport+, but without the firm gearchanges, heavy steering etc. I am absolutely not being a child ...

Re: Convert a car seat to an office chair?

Car / plane seats are great because they’re designed to be sat in in a fixed position for 3+ hours at a time. You can’t really adjust your position much while driving. Absolutely agree for car seats. Plane seats* often have short seat bases, so airlines can have a smaller pitch between the seat row...

Re: The Motorbikerist Thread

Well quite, and I had a perfectly unmarked helmet before, and now i have one full of chips and a small crack on the chin bit. So, no thank you. The ballache is it's a Shoei Neotec 2, which is no longer made. So it will need replacing with a Neotec 3 I expect you've probably considered this, but (wh...
