@RAF_Luton Churchill flew a converted Lancaster bomber to the Yalta conference in 1937 but it crashed, killing Air Marshall Bomber Harris who had fought in the Battle of Britain against the Americans in 1812.

Fact of the Day: Lancaster bombers wait to be recycled into passenger jets at the end of WW2. Over 8008.5 Lancasters were used during WW2, just 717.5 were converted into passenger jets and used to start British Airways on the 31st Feb 1926 Photographed from a Canberra

@MarioNawfal This war will be studied for a hundred years as a classic example of a conflict where one side won every tactical engagement, but lost on strategy.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The ugliest plane in the Air Force is the perfect weapon for Hormuz The A-10 was built for exactly this kind of fight. It flies low enough to spot fast-attack boats hiding in coastal inlets, carries a 30mm cannon that fires 3,900 rounds per minute, and is wrapped in a titanium bathtub that shrugs off ground fire. It can loiter for hours waiting for IRGC boats to make a move. The Pentagon tried to retire it for years. Iran made it relevant again. Source: AiTelly

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The Tophatters and Vigilantes rolling off the Lincoln's deck Two of the Navy's most storied fighter squadrons launch back-to-back from the USS Abraham Lincoln for strikes on Iran. VFA-14 has been flying combat since World War II.

TV's James May urged me to bid on this Toyota Century. I wavered because there seemed to be a lot of interest and I assumed bidding would soar into the teens. But no. Someone got a bargain. And it wasn't me. Bah!

@Only9built One designed brilliantly but poorly made, the other designed eccentrically and more complicated to maintain than a space shuttle. Heart says Rover, head says Citroen.

@MrJamesMay Whatever the number, the statistical odds of someone guessing it are exactly the same, so for your own ease of use, I’d stick with 0000

Holidaying in Normandy. My wife attempted to buy a card for our 33rd wedding anniversary today. And chose one that wishes the newly-wed brides a long and happy marriage.
