A new pilot scheme, launched this week, will significantly boost the ability to tackle and prevent crime and antisocial behaviour on Greater Manchester’s bus and tram network.
Under the Travelsafe Partnership, a dedicated team of 16 police constables, police community support officers, special constables and security personnel will provide regular patrols on the region’s networks for the next three years.
Led by Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) and Greater Manchester Police (GMP), the scheme will use crime and antisocial behaviour data from contributing operators – Metrolink, First Bus and Stagecoach – to target patrols in hotspot areas at key times and support front line staff.
The establishment of a dedicated team will provide expertise and knowledge that will also assist in the identification of repeat offenders, while the provision of body-worn cameras in conjunction with existing public transport CCTV will help gather evidence for prosecutions.
Where appropriate, the partnership will seek to use legal powers to ban offenders from public transport and deliver restorative justice schemes following prosecution.
The pilot will also focus on preventative measures and youth education, with uniformed officers visiting schools to educate youngsters on the dangers, impacts and consequences of crime, antisocial behaviour and fare evasion on public transport.
The pilot will initially run for three years but will be subject to formal annual reviews and regular scrutiny by a strategy group made up of members from organisations involved.

You should call 101, the national non-emergency number, to report crime and other concerns that do not require an emergency response.
Always call 999 in an emergency, such as when a crime is in progress, violence is being used or threatened or where there is danger to life.
You can also call anonymously with information about crime to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
Crimestoppers is an independent charity who will not want your name, just your information. Your call will not be traced or recorded and you do not have to go to court or give a statement.

First launch of Universal Hull prototype boat from trailer! The prototype is 18 ft LOA, 7 ft beam, 8 ins draft and weighs 600 lbs in light mode. Notice the slender forward sections of the boat, and the fine angle of entry underwater. It has a prototype cruising rig with mast set well back and single furled sail. The mast splits into three sections and can be stowed under the side-decks.

A new £5 million fund will provide opportunities for the supply chain in Scotland to benefit from the decommissioning of North Sea infrastructure.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon launched the Fund today at Sparrows, an Aberdeen based supply chain company with expertise in decommissioning that has just secured a major contract to provide 102 cranes to Scottish Power.
The steam catapult launch bridle is just falling away under the main wheels of this Gannet (AEW?) that is launching from aboard (I think) HMS Victorious (there's a V on the aircraft's tail, which I assume indicates the ship the aircraft belonged to?).
The Fairey Gannet was built in response to the 1945 Admiralty requirement GR.17/45. Fairey selected an engine based on the Armstrong Siddeley Mamba: the Double Mamba (or "Twin Mamba"), basically two Mambas mounted side-by-side and coupled through a common gearbox to coaxial contra-rotating propellers. Power was transmitted from each engine by a torsion shaft which was engaged through a series of sun, planet, epicyclic and spur gears to give a suitable reduction ratio and correct propeller shaft rotation. The Double Mamba engine could be run with one stopped to conserve fuel and extend endurance for cruise flight. The contra-rotating propellers meant that when only half of the Double Mamba was running there were no thrust asymmetry problems. The Mamba exhausts were situated on each side of the fuselage, at the root of the wing trailing edge. The gas-turbine engine could run on kerosene, "wide-cut" turbine fuel or diesel fuel, allowing the Admiralty to eliminate the dangerous high-octane petroleum spirit required to operate piston-engined aircraft from carriers.
The pilot is seated well forward, conferring a good view over the nose for carrier operations, and sits over the Double Mamba engine, directly behind the gearbox and propellers. The second crewmember, an observer, is seated under a separate canopy directly behind the pilot. After the prototype, a second observer was included, in his own cockpit over the wing trailing edge. This addition disturbed the airflow over the horizontal stabiliser, requiring small finlets on either side.
The Gannet has a large internal weapons bay in the fuselage and a retractable radome under the rear fuselage. The Gannet's wing folds in two places to form a distinctive Z-shape on each side. The length of the nose wheel shock absorber causes the Gannet to have a distinctive nose-high attitude, a common characteristic of carrier aircraft.
The prototype first flew on 19 September 1949 and made the first deck landing by a turboprop aircraft, on HMS Illustrious on 19 June 1950, piloted by Lt Cdr G Callingham. The type entered production in 1953 and the RN's first operational squadron (826 NAS) was embarked on HMS Eagle. A total of 348 Gannets were built, of which 44 were the heavily modified AEW.3. Production was shared between Fairey's factories at Hayes, Middlesex and RIngway Airport, Manchester.
An AEW variant (AEW Mk 3), carrying the American AN/APS-20F radar in a large, bulbous radome suspended beneath the fuselage, under the wing leading edge, requiring a major structural redesign. This variant first flew in August 1958, with trials carried out with HMS Centaur in November. When the AEW.3s were withdrawn and scrapped, their radar equipment was recycled into the RAF Avro Shackleton AEW.2. Gannets also operated as ECM aircraft (ECM.6) and as carrier onboard delivery (COD.4).
The Royal Australian Navy purchased 36 Gannets and operated them from the carrier HMAS Melbourne and the shore base HMAS Albatross near Nowra, NSW. Indonesia and Germany also bought some in the late 1950s.
The photo is probably from the early or mid-1960s as it came to me from a family friend who was serving aboard HMS Victorious during that period. There are no markings on photo or its rear...

Launching a fishing boat off Coco Beach, Ghana. Each launch takes nearly an hour as the team have to manually edge the boat forward on incoming suitable waves. Finally the boat has enough momentum, but 100 yards out they meet a few large waves. Amazingly they all remained standing.
As I can't edit or upload large images, will have to clean the dust spot later :(

Launch of a Delta IV rocket from SLC-37 in Cape Canaveral, carrying the WGS-6 satellite for the Air Force (mission overview). The photos were taking from about 9 miles away.
We weren't able to find a radio station broadcasting the countdown, so we had no idea when exactly it was launching. Turns out it launched right at the start of the launch window. We had just parked, and managed to only miss the very beginning of it.
