At the Commemorative Air Force Museum.

Boeing 747 owned by Kingdom Holding Company spotted at Riyadh RUH. The owner of this company is the richest person in Saudi Arabia (according to Wikipedia). This type of plane doesn’t fly commercially from RUH. I am so curious as to what they use this for! That’s a lot of space for a company jet.

Can anyone tell me if this flight occurred last night?

Thanks!

I was watching aircraft refueling overhead last night. When the receiving aircraft disconnected, it looked like a large quantity of fuel was spilled, leaving a long contrail in the sky.

Is that normal?

So I alsways wanted one but i don’t know how. I’ve customized a lot of planes online for fun but is there Alpha way I can get Alpha mininature plane from Alpha livery i made? I mean the scale doesn’t matter I have 1:500 and 1:200 and 1:525 probably one or two 1:400 but please tell me is there any way i can purchase A mininature plane with an own made livery?

Odd experience, So flying back from Denver a couple months ago we were in final approach to MSP over Waconia and my head started to hurt real bad like a massive headache and my right eye was hurting alot. Felt like my head was going to explode. We landed and after about 2-3 hours it was relieved. Any ideas why this might be? Looking for ways to avoid it as I'm traveling this weekend.

Hi, I recently visited Abilene Regional (KABI) and saw two what I believe are ERJ fuselages with no identifying marks other than their cheat lines. I’m aware that two ex-American Express ERJs were recently scrapped at KABI, but I don’t believe these are those planes.

I managed to grab a poor shot as we drove past and I wonder if anyone can help identify these?

By the way, the morning of the day we visited (10th April) saw the arrival of six waterbombers for the summer season - 2 x BAe 146s, 2 x Avro RJ85s and 2 x Canadair CL215Ts. Nice!

Any help with these two will be greatly appreciated.

I just took a transatlantic flight on a B787-9. I’ve experienced many times to have some ice crystals forming on the window, or around the tiny hole on one of the window layers. However this is the first time I’ve seen that much ice, forming a solid block, and looking around, it seems that a lot of windows on the plane had this too, so I found it interesting.

Why can't we make giant fighter jets?

Imgine a mix of the weaponry of an AC-130 and a fighter jet, enter fast, rain down artillery and get out fast 🤔, and if made it fly really high and satellite controlled it would be even safer, without any human pilots, it would be like artillery falling from the sky.

Also without human pilots it wouldn't need any life support, just an autoloader to load the artillery rounds and a spy camera with really good zoom that can calculate ballistically so shells fall where you point.

Like mixing a "Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird" and a "Lockheed AC-130". basically how to turn an AC-130 into a high altitude unmanned drone.

Final iteration of the brainstorming: a way to put a high power laser on a high altitude drone, to be able to melt targets from the sky.

Hello,

My dog ate the microphone on my David Clark H10-13.4 headset. I saw that there are replacement microphones available, but I can't figure out how to disassemble the microphone to replace it...

Does anyone have a solution?

Thank you very much!

Probably the best view I've ever had while using a restroom.
