      Long way in a chopper. Does she not have a BAe125 at her disposal?

      No. The RAF HS125s have been retired.

      No, the Household usually travels on Citations chartered from London Executive ( KRH callsigns ) and very occasionally on a RAF 146 ( KRF ), though Mr Cameron tends to monopolise that.

      The S-76s usually position empty ahead of Royal arrival.

      Indeed, they were sold-off at Northolt a couple of months ago. Stripped of military kit and sold as-seen.

      Technically they were never part of the Royal fleet, the 146s were nominated as such.

      Sorry to mention the Periscope word but I was just browsing on there earlier, minding my own business and went on an Irish broadcast live from a plasterer's yard (I think). Within seconds the guy filming is saying "Oh hi fr336, Boards.ie legend" :D Who was it :pac:

      Coincidentally, the only Irish shop in Luton is called Gerry's. I think he was on a plane once so still relevant.

      There's 3 ATR's holding at Los Rodeos airport (Tenerife north-TFN) due to its regular infamous fog.
      This fog was Identified as one of the causes of the worst ever aviation accident which toom place at the airport.

      My weather stats shows a 300m fog with an RVR of 1100m on RWY30.
      Is there no ILS at TFN?

      I think it may be U/S at the moment. There is an ILS on 12 at least.

      Tracking a 747SP from Las Vegas coming into Shannon if anyone has anymore info about it or someone gets an early photo in the morning. Not many SPs around anymore.
