This story follows on from my first cycle, see first comment below for details.

 

Riding to & from school was my only intention but I soon developed a love for cycling. I used to look at the top of the range Viscount – the Aerospace Pro – in the window of my local cycle shop with envy.

 

I decided I wanted a lighter, faster more sporty cycle for weekends. I joined a local cycling group for weekend rides and the wider wheels with heavy duty tyres on my school cycle whilst great for commuting, weren’t great for fast day rides.

 

I saved up and bought the cycle a year later and my mother allowed the part exchanged of her cycle, which she’d ridden once and decided it wasn’t for her (the one I’d used in the garden to learn to ride on), and after school some nights and weekends, away I went.

 

The Aerospace Pro was dogged by comments about the front forks (death forks) but I rode thousands, really many thousands of miles on them without issue but for those who want to read about the issue it’s here:

However, I did rebuild them in the image above with new forks. This is mostly because I’m not the thin little cyclist I once was. I have retained the old forks and when I put them in storage there was nothing wrong with them.

 

This one never got to being carried about in boxes, but it needed the full rebuild, so new tyres, inner tubes cables, bar tape etc. It still rides like a really fast bike.

  

British Aerospace Hawk T1A XX281 of 736 NAS Culdrose, caught transiting the Mach Loop for the final time, en route to her resting place at RAF Shawbury on retirement of the aircraft type from the Royal Navy.

The sailplane was added here. Actually, the same sailplane was flying near and above the summit (Piz Boè, 3152m) and I was surprised by its appearance from down under. This landscape is about at 300 meters lower altitude.

A decade ago earlier in the week since an extremely privileged day spent at both RAF Cottesmore and then RAF Wittering as the UK's Harrier Force was wound down.

 

This is what happens when you use a Harrier to clear the edges of the runway when you've been snow closed.

Nine years ago today, this unique Harrier T12A is seen on approach to Boscombe Down, where it was being operated as a trials airframe.

 

It apparently now resides at MCAS Cherry Point for spares recovery. Such a shame it was not preserved.

About to be pushed back from St5 @ NWI in some nice morning light.....

Wer bislang der Meinung war, Raketen werden nur von Äquatornähe aus ins All geschossen (wegen Erdrotation und elypsoider form der Erde...) , der wird hier 350 km nördlich des Polarkreises eine Überraschung erleben. Isar Aerospace, ein Münchner Luft- und Raumfahrtunternehmen bringt von hier aus im Norden der Insel Andøya, seine Kleinsatelliten ins All.

Den kleinen Leuchtturm rechts außen sieht man im folgenden Bild.

Anyone who has always thought that rockets are only launched into space from near the equator (due to the Earth's rotation and ellipsoid shape...) will be in for a surprise here, 350 km north of the Arctic Circle. Isar Aerospace, a Munich-based aerospace company, launches its small satellites into space from here in the north of the island of Andøya.

The small lighthouse on the far right can be seen in the following picture.

Riffing off the new City space sets. I'd like to enlarge this to a 48x48 baseplate (more room to add gantry cranes, etc) but I need to pick up a couple more of those "bunny suit" figs. Also the back wall should suggest air filters more than what I chucked onto this one.
