Oggy - I have been away so I missed the question about starting a car 3 times in a row. I do that when off road, it's not always wise to leave the engine running so I might go 10 yards, stop/start, another 10 yards stop/start. It's only the battery I'd worry about and since I fitted a huge tractor battery I don't worry too much anyway...

Really?

No worries about connecting a high current source to a highly inductive load and the resulting plasma discharge etching the faces of the contacts?

No worries about the imperfect mechanical engagement of a suddenly started motor with a stationary gear? Etc.

Everyone is indeed entitled to their opinions, but as an engineer, I prefer the facts.

Mike - It seems that she may do a flyby at Bournemouth en route to Dawlish on Thursday 20th. HTH.

Nothing on either PPrune or UKAR. I have asked the question and will let you know if there is any news.

One point though. Please don't forget to help them fill their buckets. No funds = no Vulcan next year.

Bear with me a minute Mike - I'll see if I can find anything out.

I don't wish to be the bearer of bad news, but didn't I read somewhere that the Vulcan isn't scheduled to fly again until August 20th at Bournemouth?

I hope I'm wrong...
Supposedly flying 3 out of the 4 days here at the Bournemouth air show.
According to VTTS, she's only flying 22/23 Aug.

Actually, it turns out that the little chap is far from benign.


Seems he is involved with ANTY TERRORISM

And so the long day wore on

Actually, looking at it again, if it were somewhat bigger I might recognise it - it could be my great ant.

George - maybe it is one of us. Maybe it is a ped-ant

Sadly in many cases I fear that is a lost cause.
