Re: A photo you took, today
I was in Bridport last Friday for about 5 minutes before heading on, and didn't get time to even see the water. Back today after a round trip,
so 50p on the town car park gave me time to have a look.This was West Bay- spectacular I thought ?

Strange to think that those cost millions and are now just worth their scrap weight.

Over 100 million each, I have to say though despite being an aviation nut and a pilot, and terrible though the loss of jobs is...its a big plus for the planet and I hope levels of air travel never reach the levels they were at before all this.
A large proportion of which perhaps surprisingly was business trips most of which are for meetings that could quite easily be held remotely and face to face stuff left for things like final agreements.
If your loaded and want a piece of a 747 for a christmas prezzie, how about: https://www.businesstraveller.com/busin ... ired-747s/

Re: A photo you took, today
only ever done one return trip on em kinda sad to see them parked there, even though not knowing the facts of the envioromental impact I am sure it is a very good for the planet. I used to do a little co-driving for a guy used to drive these things carrying freight for a living, a bit of a racer he was, said occasionally he would preset the take off power higher than necessary for the weight and what a difference it would make.

When needs must. Fingers crossed for the cable tied piston ring clamps to work. I hate this bit of a 4 cylinder rebuild.

Let us know if the ties work without too much of a fiddle - I ask, as I have barrels to refit on a 750-4 motor and need to buy some more ring compressors.... or ties, maybeBilly Bananahead wrote: ↑Fri Dec 04, 2020 11:25 am When needs must.

Sure. I just drilled two holes in each of the next size down ring clamps that are in the two kits i have and then used some thin metal strips to fill the gap. I really hate this bit.mark vb wrote: ↑Fri Dec 04, 2020 11:32 amLet us know if the ties work without too much of a fiddle - I ask, as I have barrels to refit on a 750-4 motor and need to buy some more ring compressors.... or ties, maybeBilly Bananahead wrote: ↑Fri Dec 04, 2020 11:25 am When needs must.

On the floor is the snake that was living inside my Blade. Some people would call it a Spy Ball alarm system. A bit of open heart surgery (3 hrs), and there we have it........Now I can start the bike after both remotes having given up !
