I never realised he was elected 4 times! You visited a number of spots in DC that I never knew about or got to (MLK and FDR memorials). Excellent tour. I loved that show, Still have it on DVDs :) . When I was in DC - a while ago - I went on one of the sides of the White House. Street...

The Juan Browne video posted by JohnM (post #134) discusses the electrical system in modest detail quoting from the gent who maintains the 737 technical website which I understand is pretty authoritative.

Did you drive over some rough roads at any time?

That's the CIA, isn't it?

I loath places where this happens - especially where a fee to enter is already charged. I can understand if flash may not be welcome with delicate parchments, but in most cases I think its merely to encourage purchase of cards etc.

As it happens, I noticed this on a couple of flights in my recent RTW; they were large airports (one from memory was DFW) . Just 2-4 bags come out, then nothing. Maybe another couple a minute later. I wondered - how does that happen, thinking of delivery by carriages, per photo above? Only...

Abt GBP90 for ordinary seats, I think GBP1,000 for the best. Mine, at the end corner with clear view GBP140.

WCMO is planning a visit to Edinburgh without realising its peak season. Ibis prices A$600/night and up! D'Oh! Its tattoo time. So I bought a ticket, good seat and that Ibis downtown for 2 nights.

It was more of a general question. With FDRs, are you able to access the data without special codes or tech? And if you did, say erase some data, would the activity or erasure be evident (other than an absence of data)?

That would have to be the cleanest and tidiest Souq I've ever seen!

General question. Do FDRs have any protections against tampering - such as a code to access the 'drive'. And if it was tampered with, would that be a 'recorded event' or at least visible that something happened after the crash?

And you'll have to do better than a couple of bloody apples to get me down!

No. Only had it for 2 months - did the qual spend, then holding tight.

Damn. I've had to cancel the trip where the *A Gold thing was going to be very useful. :mad:

We've had a very pleasant week of temps between 25 and abt 29 degrees. Of course the local BOM issued an 'Heatwave warning'. Even the media questioned why. 'Cos its above average and some people will find it uncomfortable' or words to that effect.

Covers it 100%

I think that's a good idea. :)

Absent any direct partnerships, if you are looking for a phone for 'frequent flyers', I would say pick an iPhone, due to the better (I believe) ecosystem of apps - the superlative Flighty, plus Apple Airtags (better coverage than new, Android version). I'm sure Android users will disagree, but...

I think you've been dealing with the Accor program for longer than me, and I don't wish to be argumentative, but that's still not what the web site says, is it? Web site says: * Get 2 SNUs by earning 14,000 stps and getting to Plat. * Get 1 SNU for every 4,000 stps after that.

That's not what the Accor web site appears to say: Of course, unlike what they say, you can also reach Plat via gifted nights (Accor+ sub). But I get what @glasszon says that I have to earn Plat first (14,000 sps), not be gifted it. I'll just have to be happy with the 2 freebies.
