The old abandoned Milk Factory still has a few relics from its time as a functioning facility. Like this old silver control panel
Excitement is rising in anticipation of the pending touchdown of NASA's InSight lander on Mars.
I was not successful finding the official control panel of this spacecraft online and was only able to find a decent facsimile for those who would like to assist the InSight Lander on it's descent. Instructions about how to operate the controls are unavailable except for those who are knowledgeable of steam locomotives, however.
This photo was taken by an Asahi Pentax 6 X 7 medium format film camera and SMC PENTAX 67 1:4 45mm lens and Hoya SMC Y[K2] 82mm filter using Kodak TX400 film, the negative scanned by an Epson Perfection V600 and digitally rendered with Photoshop.

The primary symptoms of Obssesive Compulsive Personality Disorder are a preoccupation with details, rules, lists, order, organization, and schedules; being very rigid and inflexible in their beliefs; showing perfectionism that interferes with completing a task; excessive focus on being productive with their time; being very conscientious; having inflexible morality, ethics, or values; hoarding items that may no longer have value; and a reluctance to trust a work assignment or task to someone else for fear that their standards will not be met.
Some people with OCPD, but not all of them, show an obsessive need for cleanliness. Those that do not show this tendency are sometimes good at setting up systems to maintain cleanliness, but may not follow through with the need to clean because of other "more important" priorities. For example, the need to get a good grade or finish a project at work might cause the OCPD person to have a quite messy and unorganized home. But if that same person was suddenly unemployed or finished with other activities, they could very well start becoming obsessed with cleanliness as other activities take up less time.
Completion of a task or problem by an OCPD individual can be affected when excessive time is used in getting such to be considered right. Personal and social relationships are often under serious strain because the OCPD individual insists on being in charge and the only one who knows what is right. Uncleanliness is seen by some OCPD individuals as a form of lack of perfection, as is untidiness. They may routinely spend considerable time using a precise manner, as for instance putting everything in precisely the right place in precisely the right manner.
Twenty-six 24 Class locomotives were manufactured by Toshiba Electric Co in Japan and introduced to run on the mainline for Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) in 1987. The 24 Class locomotives were commonly seen hauling both the passenger express services and freight from the heart of Singapore to Malaysia. The twenty-six 24 Class locomotives were named after heroes and warriors from Malay folklore.
This KTMB 24 Class Model is controlled by 1x PFx Brick and powered by 1x PF L-motor with lights and sounds.
With all these models completed, I thought it would be a good time to have a 'photoshoot'. Taken after the Singapore Brickfest 2021.

Success in weight loss comes at a price: eating the same thing (almost) every day to combat any sign of eating disorders.
I've shrunk back the rice and added green beads to what I eat every day (win!), but at the same time the struggle happens every day.
But that also means every day is a chance at a mini victory, and who doesn't like a victory every day?!?
One of many scenes within the control tower at The Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre at East Kirkby . This tableau depicts life in the control room of the tower back in the day .
A short history of RAF East Kirkby taken from wikipedia --
Royal Air Force East Kirkby or more simply RAF East Kirkby is a former Royal Air Force station near the village of East Kirkby, south of Horncastle in Lincolnshire, just off the A155. The Greenwich meridian passes through the airfield.
RAF Station East Kirkby opened on 20 August 1943 as a Bomber Command Station and is situated not far from RAF Coningsby.
Stationed at East Kirkby were:
No. 57 Squadron RAF (5 Group) 27 August 1943 – 25 November 1945.
No. 630 Squadron RAF (5 Group) 15 November 1943 – 18 July 1945.
RAF East Kirkby served also as the headquarters of No 5/5 (Bomber) Group RAF in command of satellite stations at RAF Strubby, RAF Spilsby, RAF Hemswell and RAF Manby.
Operations
On 17 April 1945, near the end of the Second World War, a 57 Squadron Lancaster was being loaded with bombs when a fully armed 1,000 lb bomb was unintentionally dropped onto the tarmac. Because the bomb had had its fuse inserted it detonated, setting off the rest of the Lancaster's bombload. A massive explosion killed three airmen, injured 16 others, wrote off six other Lancasters beyond repair and badly damaged a nearby aircraft hangar.
The final wartime raid from East Kirkby was flown on 25 April 1945. In total, 212 operations were carried out during the war, from which 121 Lancasters did not return. Another 29 aircraft were lost due to operational crashes or accidents.
Post war
No 630 Squadron disbanded in July that year and its place was taken by No. 460 Squadron RAAF from RAF Binbrook. This squadron joined No. 57 for transfer to the Far East as part of Tiger Force. In the 1950s, the airfield was used by the United States Air Force for Air Rescue squadrons for four years. The station (code name Silksheen) closed in 1958. It was sold by the government in 1964.
Aircraft museum
The airfield became the site of broiler sheds, and is now home to an air museum, Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre, which bought Just Jane, the gate guardian Lancaster bomber from RAF Scampton, which is regularly taxied out and stood with the four Rolls Royce Merlin XXIV engines running. Just Jane is being restored to flight by the museum.
NX611 was built by Austin Aero Ltd at their Cofton Hackett Works just south of Birmingham, rolling out of the Flight Shed on 16 April 1945, when it was put into storage, and in 1952, it was one of 54 Lancasters sold to the French Naval Air Arm, (L’Aeronavale) for £50,000 each as part of a 1951 NATO arrangement. It was designated WU-15 (Western Union). In June 1961,it joined Escadrille 9S (Surveillance), in Nouméa, New Caledonia.
On 15 April 1964, it accompanied Lancaster NX665 (WU-13), on delivery to the RNZAF, from New Caledonia to Auckland, New Zealand, returning to New Caledonia, with the crew of NX665. In 1965, its service with the L’Aeronavale over, due to spares shortages and maintenance problems, it was flown to England and on 13 May 1965 landed at Biggin Hill Airport, Kent, as part of the 'Historic Aircraft Preservation Society' Collection (HAPS). It had flown 2,330 hours. It had been registered as G - ASXX for its flight back to the UK and later stood as the gate guardian at RAF Scampton before being acquired by the museum owners Fred & Harold Panton
The control tower is believed to be haunted. The airfield was featured in a 1980s BBC series about World War II airfields. Much of the runway is still intact today but mainly used by local farmers as hard standing and by model aircraft enthusiasts. Occasional civilian light aircraft have landed on the remaining runway in recent years and the airfield still appears on Civil Aviation Maps as a diversion emergency landing location.
A memorial to the fallen can be found outside the main gate where the guard house once stood.
RAF East Kirkby was investigated by the Most Haunted team in 2003 for their third series on Living TV now called Sky Living. Yvette Fielding and her team investigated the museum and site for alleged paranormal activity. The episode was transmitted on Tuesday 7 October 2003 on Living TV. It was the first episode of the third series of the paranormal investigation show Most Haunted.
In 2008 the museum opened an unlicensed part-grass and part-concrete landing strip for visiting military and civil aircraft. No aircraft should land without contacting the owners first via the museum's website or telephone number. Air traffic control on flying display days is from RAF Coningsby and there is a six-mile "no fly" exclusion zone around East Kirkby on display days.
I was very interested in seeing the reference to RAF Manby , a base I spent some time at on a full runway and taxiway survey back in the very early 70s and in the winter months and it was very very cold and wet .
We stayed on site - 16 of us in one room - the transit dormitory . Saw a number of live bands in the NAAFI including Slade .
The lasting memory of Manby though is of me running along the centre of the taxiway to retrieve a survey target from the centre line with a Jet Provost following close behind me waiting for me to clear the obstruction - felt quite hairy at the time but I guess the pilot knew what he was doing - I hope !!!

Unusual visitor to London Heathrow - Dan Air BAC 1-11 517FE G-BCXR is seen here, arriving in the evening sunshine, on finals to runway 27L. Dan Air movements at Heathrow were not a common occurrence at the time - probably on the Inverness flight [see comments below]. The aircraft is in the final Dan Air livery carried by these aircraft, which looked quite stylish. Note the hush-kits which had to be applied to the 1-11s in the mid-80s due to stricter noise abatement rules :)
Memories of a mis-spent youth 😎
By 1986, when I took this shot, I had been making regular forays to my home airport of London Heathrow for ten years... and in that time, my photography had developed from using a primitive Kodak Instamatic (1976-77), through a short period with a borrowed secondhand 35mm (1978-79) to, firstly a secondhand Zenith E + 300mm telephoto lens (1979-80), via a temporary replacement Zenith EM (1980), to my first brand-new camera - a shiny black-bodied "Moscow Olympics" special Zenith TTL, with which I took this photo :)
The summer of '86 - aged 24, and with a new job working in urban ecology, I had less spare time to visit my old haunt of Heathrow airport. However, after getting my old negatives scanned, it appears that I did make a few forays with my Zenith TTL and 300mm telephoto lens. By this time, I had abandoned Kodachrome 64 as a tad too expensive, and was using Kodacolor VR100 or 200 print film.
So over a relatively short period, one August evening in 1986, I shot 20 frames and managed to capture this huge variety of aircraft and airlines:
3x Tu-154s Aeroflot (2 frames), Malev & Balkan
3x B707s TAP cargo, NAC cargo, TMA cargo (2 frames)
2x B727s Pan Am & VIP
2x Airbus Egyptair A300, Swissair A310
1x B737 Aer Lingus
1x B747 JAL (2 frames)
1x TriStar BA
1x BAC1-11 Dan Air
1x F-27 Luxair
1x Saab 340 Manx
1x G2 VIP
Gives you an idea of what Heathrow was like back in the good old 1980s 😎
I wasn't a huge fan of the BAC 1-11 - they were incredibly NOISY on take off :) But at least I managed to record a few of them on film for posterity before they vanished completely from the scene.
G-BCXR c/n 198 was a late-build BAC 1-11 517FE that started life as VP-LAN - leased from Court Line to subsidiary LIAT (Leeward Islands Air Transport) - an airline which Court Line had a controlling stake in at the time.
Court Line Originally Autair International Airways, formed in the 1950s, later renamed Court Line in 1970 - an Inclusive Tour charter airline. The airline was based at Luton airport. In 1971 Court Line acquired a controlling interest in Antigua based regional airline LIAT. Court Line leased some of their BAC 1-11s to LIAT, including this aircraft. After returning to Court Line as G-BCCV in Apr 1974, the airline went bankrupt in the August.
The aircraft was sold off to Monarch Airlines, and became G-BCXR. Returned to BAC for the fitting of hush-kits in 1983, and then leased to Dan Air (as seen in my photo). Withdrawn from servive in Nov 1992, and sold to British Air Ferries at Southend, where it was broken up.
