    • Attacked you, you are in Disney Land. lol

      I put up an article and you started attacking with other people. 

      Its OK Poppa, I can't expect you to recognise your senile dementia.

        • Nope. Dementia comes in many forms. My father had Cardiovascular Dementia. You probably looked it up the other day but you have forgotten. lol

  • Alaska Airlines is a very successful American domestic carrier. They have parked 23 of thier Boeing 737's and Airbus A320's on runway 21 at Portland International while the pandemic takes it's course. Cool pic hey :)

    • It does look cool. What is the picture of on the tail?

      • LOL - nah I just like the effect.

        There's 23 jets there and Alaska have a pretty new fleet - about 9 years - that means that if you wanted to purchase all the aircraft in that picture you wouldn't get much change from a billion US dollars. That's alotta capital to have just sitting there on one tarmac doing nothing - and they've got about 300 aircraft.

        But that's nothing compared to the likes of Southwest (750 jets) and American (800+ jets).

        American have got them parked all over The States. Here's 88 at Pittsburgh;

                This is an Air France Airbus A340-300 coming in low over Maho Beach at St Maartens a few years back. Aviation enthusiasts from all over the world come to Maho to experience these approaches - - that's actually Pop (closest to the camera) taking a shot and showing off his year-round Bali tan :)

                • Kram,

                  For your auditory (mainly) and visual delight. I read he is 58 years old, and still goes good.  Hope you have been keeping well, Autumn is a brilliant time of year for training and putting in the kilometres.

                  • Mate!!! Best 11 minutes of my week!!!! Thanks mate!

                    Danny Carey is an absolute beast - it obviously goes without saying that Tool are one of the greatest bands in the history of the world..

                    Yeah I've been racking up the k's for the last few weeks. The SYD air has never been clearer, it's magic. Check this bike out one of my mates just bought, it's a 1993 Trek 5900 in original condition - thier first ever full carbon bike. Manufactured in the USA. Tubular Tyres. Titanium seatpost, stem, bars and brakes, Dura Ace with down shifters to save weight. Carbon Rims. It cost $4300.00 brand new back in '93 and they are obscenely rare - this one's done about 200 k's and he paid $800 bucks for it - unbelievable! It's magnificent - ultimate bike porn :)
