Not too shy to reveal his true name or even whereabouts, he blogs his opinions, and humour and rants irregularly. Stubbornly he clings to his beliefs, e.g. that Faith does not give answers, it only prevents you doing any goddamn questioning. You are as atheist as he is. When you understand why you don't believe in all the other gods, you will know why he does not believe in yours. Oh, and after the death of his old bulldog, Kosmo, he also has a new bulldog, Clara, since September 2018 :-) Some of my bikes My Crypto Pages	Monday June 8, 2026 82 today :-) Yet another birthday today and I turn 82, in reasonable health apart from some permanent back pain. We went for a slap-up meal with friend Ulrike (her husband Frank was away with the rest of the gang on our annual motorcycle tour). I look like this now, the barber screwed up my reservation.

All under 2 tons MTOW. However, the MIL often use heavier trainers (4 tons or so) which can double as light attack machines. I have used a Harvard AT6. Another MIL 2 seater like this is the T28 trainer shown below. This is the type that crashed recently. It was being flown by two Lufthansa ATPL pilots. Witnesses report hearing a loud bang and seeing it drop out of the sky and crashing in a built-up area, fortunately missing everyone on the ground. However both pilots were killed in the wreck shown below. It had just come out of a workshop. Pilots were ATPLs so should have been able to cope with an engine-out failure. Official accident report still outstanding, expected by the end of the year. Copyright ^© Stu Savory on June 4, 2026 permalink Email Link to the previous month's blog.

This Blog's Status is Blog Dewey Decimal Classification : 153 FWIW, 153 is a triangular number, meaning that you can arrange 153 items into an equilateral triangle (with 17 items on a side). It is also one of the six known truncated triangular numbers, because 1 and 15 are triangular numbers as well. It is a hexagonal number, meaning that you can distribute 153 points evenly at the corners and along the sides of a hexagon. It is the smallest 3-narcissistic number. This means it's the sum of the cubes of its digits. It is the sum of the first five positive factorials. Yup, this is a 153-type blog. QED ;-) Books I've written
