The view from my "office"

I’m posting here because I remember reading in the past when various members toured the Boeing factory. I have the opportunity of touring Boeing early next year, versus some miserable tours including Pike’s Market. I had a coffee there some 10 or so years ago and really don’t need to see it again.

Apart from not asking the tour guide about falling doors, is the Boeing factory worth a visit? Thank you to those in the know.
In 1996 have visited the Everett plant on local tour from Seattle. It was guided and very interesting tour. And there were in assembly 3 planes for Qantas at this time.

Now there is a number of new airplane factory near Seattle. These are enormous building.

If you didn't see any of it I would recommend to visit one. 🤔
 
The view from my LHR to MAD (and back to LHR straight away) office. Danish Air Transport wet lease operated for BA. Row 1 really good, double the legroom compared to usual but we lost our seats when they changed from BA operated to DAT operated :mad:

I won't be getting and work done back in Row 4 as there is 0 legroom....

It's pretty horrid here at LHR too (just waiting to push back), was nice this morning but boy did it change quick! A very dicey landing coming in from MAD.
It was beautiful this morning but not now and I need to gird my loins and go out and find some dinner

Today was breakfast, lunch and (soon to be) dinner on the plane - didn't bother in the lounges as not needed. No outside elements braving required!
 
The wind today Croatia, especially at Zagreb airport was very strong, would like it as a tail wind, Prime Lounge, must not eat too much as last time there was a lot of food onboard for such a short trip.
No idea if I should know of the person with the tennis racquets, could be famous, no idea. :)

On board, TK1056, Zagreb to Istanbul. Another chockers flight, glad I’m down the front.

And back to the gate we go, some issues of some sort. Already late, will be a tight connection in Istanbul.
