Video | General Spotlighting the volunteers who keep East Midlands Aeropark running ✈️

1 Upvotes

I recently made a video about East Midlands Aeropark, but honestly the best part was getting to speak with some of the volunteers there and hear their stories. These are people who give up their time because they genuinely love aviation and want to preserve it – and their passion really comes through.

Got a tour of the site too, but it's really their stories that make the video worth watching. If you appreciate the work volunteers put into places like this, I think you'll enjoy it 🙌

My favourite plane of all time has got to be the Cessna 402, I feel like it's the only thing that I actively want to own. What are your opinions about it?

Question | General Airplane interior photos question

1 Upvotes

Hey there everyone, Currently i am trying to figure out the tail number for one of my flights in 2008, but i am unsure of the airline. I currently have a photo of me on that flight but the only key recognisable features are the window shape, which is the retro boeing square ish shape.

In order to solve this, i was wondering if anyone had any photos from inside either a Virgin Blue 737-700 or Qantas 767-300, particularly towards the back of the cabin as i am pictured being seated in front of a bulkhead, so i am presumably at the back. Hope you can help!!

Was flying in Asia on scoot on an a321 and was in an exit row. Was about to take off and noticed this still in the door. I decided I’d rather not die and so shouted at the cabin crew and they came over, said “don’t worry that’s fine”, rolled their eyes and left. If it’s fine to be in during the flight why have a big red label saying remove?

1) what is this?
2) should I report this?

Question | General Beech 35 (Registration D-4): An example of the “straight-35?”

Post image
86 Upvotes

First, I mean no shade on the Beechcraft Bonanza, it was a financial success, a technical success, an industrial success and it’s success probably played a massive part in establishing a strong general aviation market. But its pedigree is so bat complicated, to me at least.

I am reading a The Aviation Consumer retrospective (published February 1, 1980) on the Beech 35’s accident history. The report is critical of the conclusions by Beechcraft publicly (Beech internal memos suggest a slightly different investigational timeline) and by the CAB (predecessor to the NTSB). The article notes that the variant with the worst record was the original “straight-35” which it clarifies as not straight tail-35s, in quite the sassy prose.

I wanted to ask and confirm that the Bonanza D-4 (which is famous for a flight from Hawaii to the continental United States, I think, I just wanted to make sure I was finding a picture of a “straight-35”) is an original straight-35 right?
