Queen of the Skies

And….

Victorinox ‘Swiss Champ’. If I had to drop everything and leave with only one possession this would probably be the one. It could, I’m sure, just as easily be a Leatherman but I’ve yet to own one of those in order to compare.

This is essential and does a decent job:

I flew on the top deck of a 747 for the first time about 18 months ago. Boyhood dream fulfilled, but sadly old and tired these days. Aircraft have moved on.

And don’t UKIP want to ban the buff?

However can I nominate the Gillette safety razor and all its copies?

62A/K is the place to be. Once turned down an upgrade to First, in an aisle seat, to stay in 62A.

You’re right, though, planes have moved on. Sadly. There isn’t the same frisson of going upstairs in a 380, and no matter how good the 350 and 787 are, they just lack that special something. 1A/K is the closest vies to sitting in the cockpit, just with a much better wine list.

Drove one and it’s the only car that has truly terrified me!!

Wasn’t there some controversy around martin-baker?
Always loved a bailey bridge build.

Simple things done well.

Man who likes his window seat but also being able to get to the toilet overnight?

Sometimes one needs to join the Pile High Club! 🙂

But yes, window seat with the lockers, and easy to get up and take a slash walk around for a while. 🙂 Upstairs is so much quieter, and better service, too.

For bonus points, pop downstairs for some crop dusting. 😈

I can only assume it was this video you meant to post? [video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azEvfD4C6ow[/video]

Humans are an Awesome Piece of Kit.

Americas Cup +1

Plus, Vendee baby, and shortly VOR on foils.

Possibly an obvious one, but if there is any ‘bit of kit’ that deserves the word “awesome” it is this one…

BIC cristal pen the cheapest yet most reliable pen ever.

Without it, humans would have hugged every coastline until they fell off the edge.

And this, still aghast at how all those numbers found thier way into such a small object..

…superceded by newer versions, and a long time since I worked in acute medicine, but seen/helped with a lot of lives saved (for free, natch) with the help of these:

Julian – if you want a printed version of the manual for the MPC, I have a few arriving later this week. £15 posted. Used yours much yet?

@ julienwilson, if that’s what I think it is, IE, the bottom one, then you win. My little pal (Mrs EGF) is linked up to 6 of them as I speak.
