Looking towards Warwick Castle from the roof of the Grade I Listed Collegiate Church of St Mary, in Warwick, Warwickshire.
Warwick Castle is a Scheduled Ancient Monument in recognition of its status as a "nationally important" archaeological site or historic building, and is a Grade I listed building. It is built on a sandstone bluff on a bend of the River Avon in Warwick Warwickshire. The river, which runs below the castle on the east side, has eroded the rock the castle stands on, forming a cliff and natural defences.
An Anglo-Saxon burh was established on the site in 914; with fortifications instigated by Ethelfleda, daughter of Alfred the Great. The burh she established was one of ten which defended Mercia against the marauding Danes. Its position allowed it to dominate the Fosse Way, as well as the river valley and the crossing over the River Avon. Though the motte to the south-west of the present castle is now called "Ethelfleda's Mound", it is in fact part of the later Norman fortifications, and not of Anglo-Saxon origin.
Following the Norman Conquest William the Conqueror built a castle on the site of the burgh. The castle's position made it strategically important in safeguarding the Midlands against rebellion as William advanced with his army northwards. William appointed Henry de Beaumont, the son of a powerful Norman family, as constable of the castle and in 1088, Henry de Beaumont was made the first Earl of Warwick.
During the 12th century, King Henry I was suspicious of Roger de Beaumont, 2nd Earl of Warwick. To counter the earl's influence, Henry bestowed Geoffrey de Clinton with a position of power rivalling that of the earl.
The original wooden motte-and-bailey castle was rebuilt in stone in the 12th century. During the Hundred Years War, the facade opposite the town was refortified, resulting in one of the most recognisable examples of 14th century military architecture. It was used as a stronghold until the early 17th century, when it was granted to Sir Fulke Greville by James I in 1604. Sir Fulke Greville converted it to a country house. It was owned by the Greville family, who became earls of Warwick in 1759, until 1978 when it was bought by the Tussauds Group.
In May 2007 Tussauds was purchased by Merlin Entertainments who continue to operate the castle on a lease, having sold the freehold to Nick Leslau's Prestbury Group in July 2007.
Just after Sunrise, NJT 4200 leads train 5718 while overtaking CSX Q190 in Newark, NJ. The day before saw moderate snowfall and caused NJT to shut buses down and run their severe weather scheduling. It would appear the trailing Multilevel Cab Car had issues, forcing the Raritan protect engine to be added before the day's run.
Becoming a very common theme every year, Air China continues to make alterations to their London Heathrow flights... Going from a single to twice daily flight in September 2014, and then going 17 flights a week from Beijing in October 2018 for the S18 schedule, before going thrice daily from the S19 schedule. Meanwhile, Air China also operates thrice weekly from Chengdu...
Unsurprisingly, Air China have made quite a number of aircraft allocation changes for the upcoming S20 schedule from Beijing commencing from 29th March 2020 which are as follows:
-CA787/788: Continues to utilise Airbus A330-200s.
-CA855/856: Continues to utilise Airbus A330-200s from the W19 schedule, previously Airbus A350-900s during the S18 schedule.
-CA937/938: Continues to utilise 3-class configured Boeing 777-300ERs.
The changes from Beijing-Capital sees 2 of the 3 daily flights operated by Airbus A330-200s with one flight maintaining Boeing 777-300ERs.
Away from their thrice daily flights from Beijing-Capital, Air China continues to provide thrice weekly flights between Chengdu and London Heathrow (CA423/424) operating Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday continues to utilise Airbus A330-200s. Of course, all these changes are subject to change.
Currently, Air China operates 28 Boeing 777s, all of which are Boeing 777-300ERs.
Two Zero Three Three is one of 28 Boeing 777-300ERs in service with Air China, delivered new to the flag-carrier on 25th September 2012 and she is powered by 2 General Electric GE90-115B engines.

Amtrak P32-8BWH. number 510, leads an hour late Coast Starlight along Berg Siding at Yuba City on the Valley Subdivision. Train 14 usually gets to Yuba City not long after 1 AM, but in this case it has arrived at 2:30 on the dot. I planned on going to Sacramento Valley Station, but the time of night convinced me otherwise, and I decided to get a quick and lazy shot while pacing the locomotive.
My schedule is a little unpredictable these days, as I'm shooting production stills for my first movie. I did location scouting for the project a couple of years ago, and now I'm working on set, so my weeks involve shooting, uploading and sleeping!
Join us every Saturday at Sky Villi or Shiny Shabby Sim @Black Milk Club and enjoy the cool bits!

SET 3 – Walmart, Morrilton, AR
(cont.) …whereas in this pic, “Lifestyle & Pharmacy” is very distinctly right-aligned, butting right up against that pylon. I never noticed that before writing these descriptions – and now I wish I could unsee it, lol XD
I brought up the West Memphis store, which l_dawg2000 toured in 2021, a few descriptions back (in the last upload session), and now that this is the very last pic of this album, it seems like a good time to reference that store again, particularly given how its version of Airport is already a bit less deluxe than Morrilton’s. Of particular note is the fact that all the department signs are just one thickness, not with the hollow section in the middle, as can be seen here (the same is true for the aisle markers as well). Then again, West Memphis also got this cool “Cart Park” feature which Morrilton did not :P It will be interesting to see what the future holds for this package and its various décor treatments; I certainly hope Walmart treats it well and continues to uphold the premium construction which makes it so cool-looking. But I guess only time will tell.
I hope y’all enjoyed this tour and getting to see Airport décor for the first time (at least, in my photostream, anyway)! Please feel free to let me know what you thought of the décor package in general, or the Morrilton store specifically, in the comments below. In the meantime, next up we’ll be heading back to the Goodman/Getwell Kroger to continue our ongoing Urban Mix stour there, followed by a very special, long overdue return to a store I love… stick around!
Happy Easter, everyone! Apologies for this upload being a little bit late -- same goes for several other uploads over the past few months during busy season. Busy season is just about over now, but uploads will continue to be a bit off schedule from time to time, as I'm working around some issues my home laptop is having.

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)

Hospital of St John the Baptist
(ruin to the right of my image)
1180–1548
A classic medieval hospital where a small group of monks or nuns cared for local people who were poor or sick, as well as wayfarers who needed shelter.
The hospital was closed during the Dissolution of the Monasteries.
In 1550, the mayor and burgesses of High Wycombe acquired the old hospital buildings to establish a school in them.
In 1562, Queen Elizabeth I granted the school a royal charter, and from that date, it was known as the Royal Grammar School.
The school operated in the old hospital until 1883, when funds were found for a new building.
The new school was constructed just north of the old hospital (on the left in my image), and the ancient building (apart from the surviving ruin) was finally demolished.
In 1915, the Royal Grammar School was moved from this location to its current location on Amersham Hill.
What remains of the old hospital (ruin) is the infirmary hall.
In 1993, the ruin was declared a Scheduled National Monument by English Heritage.
Today, the ruin is well-maintained and illuminated at night, making it a local landmark.
Grade II Listed.

Previously, Delta has already revealed that capacity is to be reduced into the UK for the upcoming Winter 2016/2017 schedule following the United Kingdom's decision to leave the European Union.
Airline Route has published two different schedule changes mainly affecting its London Heathrow routes, the two schedule changes are during the Winter 2016 timeframe and Summer 2017 timeframe.
For the Winter 2016/2017 schedule, Delta is to switch operational aircraft on both its London Heathrow to Detroit and Minneapolis routes. The changes commence from 29th October 2016 until 25th March 2017, which include:
-Detroit: DL18/19 converts from Boeing 767-400ER to Boeing 767-300ER operation, converting back to Boeing 767-400ER for the Summer 2017 schedule whilst DL16/17 will operate utilise Boeing 767-300ER's.
-Minneapolis: DL10/11 converts from Boeing 767-400ER to Boeing 767-300ER operation.
The Summer 2017 schedule sees Delta recommencing its 3rd daily flight between London Heathrow and Atlanta, following the announcement that Virgin Atlantic will be transferring one of two daily flights back over to Delta.
DL28/29 will continue to utilise Boeing 767-400ER's, DL30/31 will utilise Boeing 767-300ER's, however DL32/33 will utilise Airbus A330-300's.
For the first time since Northwest Airlines and Delta Air Lines merger, Airbus A330's operated by the US carrier will make a comeback after a lengthy absence (not including emergency diversions). Prior to the merger, Northwest Airlines regularly utilised Airbus A330's into London, first at Gatwick during the Bermuda II Agreement and finally London Heathrow from 2008 following the introduction of the EU-US Open Skies Agreement.
During the merger of Delta Air Lines and Northwest Airlines as both fleets started to be integrated, Airbus A330's were largely concentrated operating from major SkyTeam hubs, however with the fleet integration, Boeing 767's beame concentrated on other routes.
Delta currently operates the largest Boeing 767 fleet in the world with 91 in service, which includes 12 Boeing 767-300's, 58 Boeing 767-300ER's and 21 Boeing 767-400ER's.
November Eight Three Six Mike Hotel is one of 21 Boeing 767-400ER's in service with Delta, delivered new to the carrier in December 2000 and she is powered by 2 General Electric CF6-80C2B7F engines.

Just looking at my pics from Beaufort, actually Hunting Island State Park -- I am so anxious to move down there, I'm just doing some beach dreaming here. Looks like we won't close as scheduled on 6/30 - taking a little longer than we'd hope - but as you can see from this pic - it will be worth it!!

found that one in a dusty corner of my hard drive.
it's from 2003 and was taken with a trolleypod ;-).
I went there with the Engineer, Mr. Roshan Langah and his brother Nadeem Langah. I am highly indebted of these Langah brothers as well as Shabbir who went with me and spare time from his very tight schedule, otherwise it was not possible for me to go there.
Gorakh is an Under-Development Hill Station of Sindh, Pakistan. It is situated at an elevation of 5688 Ft. in the Kirthar Mountains Range's Sindh Segment, 93-km north west of Dadu city. Gorakh Hill Station is situated on one of the highest Plateaus of Sindh, spread over 2500 acres, and due its surroundngs, a unique adventure point for nature lovers.
Gorakh Plateau also serves as gateway for the villagers of Khuzdar District, Baluchistan, who come over to the village, Wahi Pandi, in Sindh's segment of Kirthar, about a third way downhill from Gorakh Hill Station... for purchasing food and other Utilities.
The Gorakh Hills summit can only be reached with 4x4 vehicles, which are available from Dadu and Johi towns. The hilltop is 93 km from Dadu. The last small town before the Gorakh Hill is Wahi Pandi, settled in the lap of the Kirthar range. The road thereafter is towered slowly at the milestone of 53 km when one enters the Yaroo Pass (Yaroo Sain Jo Luck).
After crossing this pass 2500 ft above sea level, the journey continues in the mountains and at the milestone 76 km one reaches the base camp of another highest pass of the Kirthar range. It is known as Khanwal Pass (KP) on the elevation of 3,000 ft and at the top of the KP the elevation is 5,000 ft above sea level. The distance between the KP base camp and the KP top is four kilometres. The four-kilometre journey is too zigzag. After reaching the top of KP, drive continues to the Gorakh Hill top, which is the 13 km ahead. At the top of the hill there is a small rest-house, the only facility so far made available.
The Sindh Segment of Kirthar Mountains, has a large number of Mountain Peaks over 5500 feet high, and before Shaddan Shah's Discovering the highest peak in Kirthar, at an elevation of 7056 feet [plus/minus a few feet, via Google Earth Telemetry, at the Exact Coordinates of: 27 12.35 10 North, 67 09.33 88 East], another Peak, in Sindh's Northern segment of Kirthar; known as Kuttay ji Qabr, at 6850, [plus/minus a few feet] was considered the Highest Peak. It is now the second highest peak of Sindh.
Shaddan Shah, as the Discoverer of the Exact Location and Height of the Highest Mountain Peak in Sindh, over 7056 feet high, has, in paying his tribute, named it Koh Benazir, honoring one of the greatest ever Pakistanis.

My father, Norman M Reed [11/11/1925 to 02/23/2023 – 97 yrs old], was a retired Allegheny Airlines Captain [US Airways]. He spent 13.5 years, 11,800 hours and 30162 take-offs & landings while flying the DC-3 in scheduled airline service for Lake Central Airlines [The FAA says it is a record for To's & Ldgs in a DC3 in domestic scheduled airline service], one of the legacy airlines of the "New American" Airlines.
Dad & Mom moved to Texas in 1977 from Catharpin, VA after my father retired from Allegheny Airlines [just before they changed their name to USAir in 1979 - he was originally with Lake Central Airlines - hire date 1953 - that merged with Allegheny in 1968] as a DC-9 Captain. He has flown in scheduled airline service the DC3, Nord 262, Convair 340 & 580 and the DC9-30 &-50. He was trained in the Army Air Corp during WWII on the P-47 & P-38. He never saw combat. Mom is 91 this year - 2025.
P-47 Thunderbolt
“More than 15,600 Thunderbolts were manufactured between 1941 and 1945 and they served in every theatre of the war.”
WITH ITS SLEEK LINES, nimble handling and lightning-fast speed, the North American P-51 quickly became a symbol of American air power in World War Two. But while the Mustang certainly helped win control of the skies over Europe and the Pacific, it was the less glamorous Republic P-47 Thunderbolt that was the real workhorse of the Allied victory. Nicknamed the “Jug” (short for “Juggernaut”) by adoring pilots, the P-47 was a heavyweight warbird — and one that packed a devastating punch. More than 15,600 Thunderbolts were manufactured between 1941 and 1945 and they served in every theatre of the war performing a variety of missions from bomber escort to close air support. Here are some amazing facts about this remarkable aircraft:
The P-47 was supposed to be a ‘light’ fighter
Conceived by Georgian-born aircraft designer Alexander Kartveli, the plane that would eventually become the P-47 was originally intended to be a featherweight interceptor. Based on the small P-43 Lancer, which saw limited service in the U.S. Army Air Corps before 1941, Republic was hoping to develop an improved version of the fighter. But as the war in Europe demonstrated the need for much more robust warplanes, the company was forced to rethink its plans. Designers soon came up with bigger, more rugged machine: The P-47. A prototype Thunderbolt first took to the skies on May 6, 1941.
The Thunderbolt was a flying tank
The P-47 was a big plane. It was three feet wider than the P-51 and four feet longer. And at more than 10,000 pounds empty, it was about 50 percent heavier than the Mustang and nearly twice the weight of of the British Spitfire. In fact, along with the three-seat Grumman Avenger, the P-47 was among the heaviest single-engine aircraft of World War Two.
… but it could move fast
Despite its considerable mass, the P-47’s 18-cylinder, 2,600-horsepower Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp engine (the same power plant used by the Vought Corsair and Grumman Hellcat) enabled the unwieldy Jug to keep pace with the Mustang. Both had a top speed of around 440 mph (700 km/h). And while the P-47 could reach altitudes in excess of 40,000 feet (12,000 meters), its range of just over 800 miles (1,300 km) gave it half the legs of the P-51.
It packed a killer punch
With four .50 caliber machine guns mounted in each wing, the Thunderbolt could shred both enemy warplanes and ground targets alike with equal ferocity. Its internal stores were capable of holding 3,400 rounds (the Mustang’s six guns could pack only 1,800 bullets), which enabled the P-47 to unleash a torrent of lead for 30 seconds straight. While the Jug did poorly in fast turning dogfights against smaller planes, it was at its best when diving on (or “bouncing”) enemy fighters with all guns blazing. It was even more effective as a ground attack aircraft; it was capable of carrying as much as 3,000 pounds of external ordnance. In fact, when fully armed, a P-47 Thunderbolt could deliver about half the payload of a B-17 Flying Fortress. When equipped with 4.5-inch M8 rockets, the Jug had the firepower equal to a battery of 105 mm howitzers.
… and was very hard to kill.
The P-47 was a popular plane with pilots. Not only was it capable of absorbing staggering amounts of punishment, the cockpit was roomy and comfortable. Some fliers likened the aircraft’s seat to a lounge chair. Plus, the bubble canopy, which was added to D-model variants, afforded aviators enhanced visibility. The plane’s safety record was nothing short of astounding – only about 0.7 percent of Thunderbolts were lost in action. [2]
P-47s weren’t cheap
Republic Aviation factories in Long Island, New York and in Evansville, Indiana, along with a Curtis plant in Buffalo, assembled 15,600 Thunderbolts between 1942 and 1945 — that’s an average of 360 a month for three and a half years. Each plane cost $85,000 (about $1.1 million in 2015). All told, the War Department spent $1.2 billion on P-47 Thunderbolts before VJ Day. That’s roughly equal to $15.5 billion today.
… but they were worth the investment
The P-47 made its combat debut in April 1943, when a Thunderbolt with the U.S. Army’s 4th Fighter Group brought down a Focke Wulfe FW-190 over France. Over the next two years, the planes would fly more than half a million sorties in Europe and the Pacific and would claim nearly 4,000 enemy aircraft, 9,000 trains, 86,000 trucks and 6,000 armoured vehicles.
Many aces preferred the Thunderbolt
number of American aces achieved impressive records while at the controls of P-47s. Thunderbolt top guns included Francis “Gabby” Gabreski (28 kills), Robert S. Johnson (27 kills) and David C. Schilling (22.5 kills).
Improved P-47s broke speed records
Numerous attempts were made to improve the performance of the mighty Jug. One experimental model set a speed record of 505 mph (810 km/h). No piston engine aircraft would top that until 1989. In 1942, Republic reported that its plots had broken the then-elusive ‘sound barrier’ during P-47 dive tests although that record has been disputed. [3] However, two years later, the company produced a limited number of M model Thunderbolts with supercharged engines that could reach emergency speeds of 473 mph (760 km/h). These were sent to the United Kingdom to intercept V1 rockets and were later used against German jets.
More than 20 nations used the P-47
While the United States was the P-47’s principle operator, Thunderbolts served in a number of other countries’ air forces as well. More than 800 went to Britain and Commonwealth powers during the war. Free France operated nearly 500 of the aircraft too. As many as 400 Jugs were also transferred to the Soviet Union under Lend Lease, where they largely served in interceptor roles.
Thunderbolts became Cold Warriors
Although P-47 production ceased just weeks after Japan’s surrender, Thunderbolts (re-designated as the F-47) continued to serve for years (and in some cases decades) after World War Two. America pulled the plane from front line service in 1949, but NATO allies like Turkey, Portugal and Italy maintained squadrons of Thunderbolts into the 1950s, as did Iran. Taiwanese F-47s routinely engaged communist fighters off the coast of China. Surplus models were also liberally distributed throughout Latin America during the same period. Bolivia, Brazil, Columbia, Ecuador and the Dominican Republic all maintained fleets for years. Peru didn’t retire its Jugs until 1966. When designing its formidable A-10 tank buster in the early 1970s, engineers at Fairchild Republic tore a page from history and dubbed their new twin-engine attack jet the Thunderbolt II in honour of the P-47. Today, at least 15 original wartime Jugs are still airworthy and can be seen on the North American air show circuit each summer.

With only a month until the S22 schedule comes to a close and as Delta prepares for the upcoming W22 schedule, the carrier has all but confirmed their flights for the upcoming winter period, however unsurprisingly for many carriers they are in process of preparing for the S23 schedule commencing from late-March 2023.
Indeed, Delta already made preliminary changes for the S23 schedule but very recently, the carrier has been making further changes to their long-haul schedule, notably the introduction and re-introduction of brand new routes as air travel continues to recover.
For the S23 schedule, Delta will be ramping up their schedule into London Heathrow effective from 25th March 2023 unless otherwise stated which are as follows:
-Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta: Continues to operate twice-daily; DL30/31 and DL32/33 utilising Boeing 767-400ERs.
-Boston-Logan: Continues to operate daily; DL58/59 utilising Boeing 767-400ERs.
-Detroit-Metropolitan Wayne County: Continues to operate twice-daily; DL16/17 and DL18/19 utilising Airbus A330-200s.
-Los Angeles: Newly reintroduced after being cancelled from September 2015; will operate daily utilising Airbus A330-900s (DL186/187).
-Minneapolis-St. Paul: Continues to operate daily; DL10/11 utilising Airbus A330-200s replacing Boeing 767-400ERs.
-New York-John F. Kennedy: Continues to operate twice-daily; flights have been renumbered with DL1/2 becoming DL3/4, and DL3/4 renumbered DL5/6. DL3/4 will continue to utilise Boeing 767-400ERs whilst DL5/6 will utilise Airbus A330-900s.
-Salt Lake City: Operates daily; DL50/51 will utilise Airbus A330-900s replacing Airbus A330-200s.
-Seattle-Tacoma: Operates daily; DL20/21 initially scheduled to utilise Airbus A330-900s but will now utilise Airbus A330-300s replacing previously allocated Boeing 767-400ERs.
As ever, these changes are provisional but there is a considerable ramp up in regards to aircraft type and product being offered to match with Virgin Atlantic. For Delta, the carrier will operate 77 weekly flights from London Heathrow; 4 of those daily flights remain in the hands of their newly refurbished Boeing 767-400ERs, otherwise Airbus A330s make up the lion-share with 3 daily flights provided by Airbus A330-200s, one by Airbus A330-300s and 3 by the new Airbus A330-900s.
Since initially posting their changes a few months prior, Delta tentatively scheduled Airbus A330-900s into London Heathrow on a regular basis with Salt Lake City and Seattle-Tacoma the first two flights to receive the type; this has now changed whilst Salt Lake City retains the Airbus A330-900s, Seattle-Tacoma will have to wait with Airbus A330-300s replacing the Boeing 767-400ERs. Another notable change is one of 2 daily flights from New York-John F. Kennedy will operate with Airbus A330-900s operating alongside the Boeing 767-400ERs.
Finally, Delta will reinstate their daily service from Los Angeles with Airbus A330-900s, which originally operated for the S15 schedule with Boeing 767-300ERs but prematurely cancelled in September 2015. It is very likely the reinstatement of their daily flight to Los Angeles is as a result of a slot-swap with Virgin Atlantic who at present operates thrice-daily flights to Los Angeles.
If rumours are to be believed, Delta will be making further announcements in regards to their long-haul programme for 2023 and with Virgin Atlantic confirmed to be joining SkyTeam from early-2023, expect more changes to follow.
Currently, Delta Air Lines operates 60 Airbus A330s, which includes 11 Airbus A330-200s, 31 Airbus A330-300s and 18 Airbus A330-900s. Delta Air Lines have 20 more Airbus A330-900s on-order.

Here working the 1V48 Leeds to Plymouth is Cross Country Class 43's, 43378 and 43303, making a welcome change from the line's regular suburban trains.
Sutton Coldfield has never been known for routinely scheduled express trains, but on Sundays only, Arriva Cross Country operates a single diagram via the route from Wichnor Junction to Birmingham New Street, passing through Lichfield, Sutton Coldfield, and Aston on the busy Cross-City Line, which normally doesn't see more than the slew of London Midland Class 323's.
The route is the primary diversionary route for Cross Country trains when the line between Birmingham and Tamworth is closed for engineering work, and throughout the years has seen all manner of diverted traffic pass along its rails.
The most infamous of these however was on the 23rd January, 1955, a diverted express from York to Bristol hauled by LMS Black 5 45274, took the sharp, 30mph corner at Sutton Coldfield station at nearly 60mph. The result was the train leaving the rails after leaving the tunnel at the north end of the platforms before smashing across the Down Line and onto the platform, completely obliterating the small station buildings and tearing apart the station roof as the carriages piled up on top of one-another. In all, 17 people were killed including the train crew. The cause of the disaster was owed largely to the crew's inexperience with the route, and their disorientation with the location of the speed restrictions.
Today however, the route is still primarily operated by Class 323 commuter services on a regular basis, although aside from Sunday's unique HST working, during weekdays before dawn or after hours, Cross Country and Virgin Trains use the route to work empty stock Class 220 and 221 Voyager sets between Birmingham New Street and their main maintenance depot at Central Rivers near Burton-on-Trent. It also sees some evening workings by Cross Country Class 170's, either operating empty stock workings between Nottingham and their Tyseley depot, or some late evening workings between Derby, Nottingham and Birmingham.

UP Security had their hands full at Medicine Bow, during Big Boy's scheduled maintenance stop. Signal indicates a westbound will be passing shortly. "25 feet back from the tracks, everyone!"
British Airways is currently in the process of updating their schedule for the next S18 schedule as the current scheduling period is due to come to a close...
At present, British Airways is rescaling its South American flights, notably to Brazil which is recovering from a major economic downturn where demand for flights were downsized... British Airways at present only serves 2 destinations in Brazil.
Let's begin with Brazil's financial centre, São Paulo... The service continues to operate daily but the service has seen considerable capacity adjustment since the W16 schedule. BA246/247 which saw frequent appearances of Super Hi-J Boeing 747-400's later saw Mid-J Boeing 747-400's and later Boeing 777-200ER's.
From 29th October 2017, Boeing 777-300ER's will take-over operation of BA246/247 and will continue through the S18 schedule period where Boeing 777-200ER's were previously diagrammed. So far, São Paulo is now getting its capacity back...
The next one is Rio de Janeiro, a destination that has suffered considerable frequency reduction and capacity cuts. With the Rio 2016 Olympics now over, demand has dropped although the frequency is slowly returning back to daily.
Initial plans for BA248/249 for the W17 schedule were that the flight increases to 6 times a week operation, and Boeing 777-200ER's were supposed to be replaced by Boeing 787-9's, but now by Boeing 787-8's from 29th October 2017. From 10th May 2018 for the S18 schedule will see BA248/249 returning back to daily operation, still utilising Boeing 787-8's.
Whilst it is good to see Rio de Janeiro regaining its daily frequency, the use of Boeing 787-8's is still a considerable capacity cut from Boeing 777-300ER's which were prevalent before the S16 schedule ended.
Currently, British Airways operates 58 Boeing 777's, which includes 3 Boeing 777-200's, 43 Boeing 777-200ER's and 12 Boeing 777-300ER's.
Yankee Mike Mike Lima is one of 43 Boeing 777-200ER's in service with British Airways, delivered new to the flag-carrier in April 2001 and she is powered by 2 Rolls-Royce Trent 895 engines. Since February 2015 following a repaint into Crest livery, she gained Masha Ma designed GREAT Festival of Creativity special colours featuring artwork inspiration from Eastern Asia incorporating Bamboo and Western Europe of the Rose.

As we start to approach the end of the peak S17 schedule, airline are now preparing for the imminent W17 schedule due to commence on 28th October 2017. United Airlines which have already provided a small selection of S18 updates, the airline have also published its full W17 changes as reported by Airline Route.
Firstly, United Airlines is once again changing its aircraft allocation at its bases (I know, I'm losing count!), one of the most notable during the upcoming W17 schedule changes is from its massive Newark-Liberty hub.
So far in terms of wide-body jets, Boeing 767-300ER/400ER's are a major aircraft of choice at Newark, providing the majority of transatlantic flights to Europe. At present, Boeing 767-300ER's provides the large portion of transatlantic flights, with Boeing 767-400ER's shuffling between Newark-Liberty and Washington-Dulles.
The W17 schedule sees Boeing 767-400ER's replacing a number of Boeing 767-300ER operated flights at Newark-Liberty and vice-versa with Boeing 767-300ER's taking their place at Washington-Dulles.
London Heathrow will see Boeing 767-400ER's return from the start of the W17 schedule, replacing select number of Boeing 767-300ER's (although, not on all flights). During the low season, Boeing 757-200's will also fill the gaps when capacity is reduced... Expect capacity to ramp up before Christmas and New Year.
The second biggest change to United's London Heathrow to Newark-Liberty flights is as mentioned before, the introduction of a new summer seasonal flight between London Heathrow and Denver, Colorado. The S18 schedule will see the 6 daily flights reduce down to 5 daily flights beginning from 24th March 2018 with UA76/77 withdrawn. At present, Boeing 767-300ER's will operate all 5 daily flights from the start date, however expect that to change following recent W17 developments.
Away from the schedule changes, United is in the process of refurbishing their draconian 3-class configured Boeing 767-300ER's. 14 domestic-configured Boeing 767-300ER's have already been retrofitted with new international interiors since 2012/2013, but don't feature United's Polaris Business Class seats. United have already refurbished 8 of the 21 pre-existing international configured Boeing 767-300ER's but they too don't feature the new Polaris product.
At the time of writing, 2 Boeing 767-300ER's fitted with the pre-merger United 3-class interiors are currently at Hong Kong being fitted with not only refurbished interiors (as well as First Class interiors removed), but will receive United's Polaris Business Class seats. The first should be heading back to the United States at some point by the end of August, or beginning of September; with the second likely to be completed by the end of September.
Currently, United Airlines operates 51 Boeing 767's, which include 35 Boeing 767-300ER's and 16 Boeing 767-400ER's.
November Six Six Two Uniform Alpha is one of 35 Boeing 767-300ER's in service with United Airlines, delivered new to the carrier in August 1993 and she is powered by 2 Pratt & Whitney PW4060 engines. She is one of 21 Boeing 767-300ER's previously fitted in 3-class configuration, having been extensively refurbished and fitted with blended winglets since March 2016.

Alle otto in punto come il mercoledi' precedente sono all'ingresso; suono, nessuna risposta ma poco dopo il pesante cancello si apre con un rumore che ricorda un carcere da film americano. Arrivo alla porta, e' socchiusa, "permesso?" chiedo titubante, in risposta la sua voce sicura "Prima indossa la tua divisa nello sgabuzzino e dopo portami la tua chastity, sissy!" Eseguo senza esitare, indosso calze a rete, sottogonna, corpetto stringivita, il vestito in raso nero da sissymaid vittoriana con bordatura in pizzo bianco, grembiule, guanti e crestina bianca, infine le scarpe mary-jane di vernice nera con cinturino bianco traforato, il tacco di 7 centimetri mi fa camminare appena insicura con passi corti e veloci. Con la cintura di castita' sul vassoio entro in camera presentandomi con un goffo inchino di riverenza alla Padrona. Domina Sreni sorride al mio arrivo in camera, mi saluta, mi fa avvicinare e sollevare il sottogonna per chiudermi nella chastity belt di silicone rosa; stringe un anello intorno ai testicoli e lo collega al cappuccio infilato sul pene, "oggi lo stringiamo meglio e vediamo se resisti fino alla prossima settimana" e inserendo un piccolo distanziatore serra i miei genitali in una stretta morsa con lucchetto riponendo la chiave nel cassetto del comodino. Spostando con un dito la chastity la Mistress nota una ricrescita di peluria, "lo sapevo che la rasatura non durava, la prossima settimana ti faccio una ceretta intima ben fatta, ti voglio sempre in ordine e ben pulita". Annuisco e ringrazio la Padrona che mi elenca il programma della mattina: pulizia del bagno come prima cosa, poi preparare e servire la colazione, riassettare e pulire la camera, lavare stendere e stirare la biancheria, infine spolverare e riordinare il dungeon. Cosa spinge un uomo che non e' un maniaco dell'attivita' domestica a diventare la caricatura di una colf, una serva volontaria non retribuita? Difficile a spiegarsi, forse la ricerca di una particolare modalita' relazionale con la Donna Dominante, il prendersi cura di Lei e delle sue esigenze quotidiane puo' essere il driver di questa passione? Il tentativo di integrare in un gioco di ruolo sadomaso bdsm anche un versante 'sentimentale'? E quanto conta l'omosessualita' in questo travestimento al femminile? Perversione o repressione? Questo pensiero mi girava in testa mentre a carponi stavo pulendo con uno spazzolino gli interstizi fra le piastrelle del pavimento, quando da dietro sento il piede di Domina Sreni appoggiarsi sulla schiena "ho un pensierino per te sissy" e alzandomi il sottogonna mi assesta un paio di colpi sulle natiche poi la sento infilarsi un guanto di latex e saggiare l'elasticita' del mio 'fiorellino anale'. "Sei stretta sissy, vuoi farmi credere che sei vergine? -Ride- Da ora in avanti quando sei a servizio da me ti voglio sempre con questo plug nel sederino, servetta sei troppo stretta e Io amo fistare" detto questo mi spinge lentamente con pressione costante un plug d'acciaio chirurgico nell'ano e arrivata in fondo con un altro ceffone dietro mi invita a riprendere il lavoro a quattrozampe. Lo sconforto aumenta: la fatica delle mansioni cui non sono abituato, la scomodita' dell'abbigliamento e dei tacchi alti, la costrizione dei genitali che si gonfiano per l'intrusione posteriore, l'umiliazione patita e documentata con scatti fotografici mi fanno sudare e vacillare. Proseguo comunque le pulizie con il massimo impegno mentre Domina Sreni alterna momenti di indifferenza in cui non mi degna di attenzione con momenti degni di un'ispezione militare per scrupolo e severita' nell'esaminare il mio lavoro, abbigliamento e comportamento. Quando mi concede una magnanima pausa in ginocchio ai suoi piedi "Ti voglio tenere sissy, mi serve una sguattera devota e volenterosa; ti addestrero' a diventare una schiava degna di servirmi. Dovrai patire dolore segni sofferenze, se anche non sei masochista lo diventerai per devozione alla tua mistress." Cosi' dicendo apri' le due piccole cerniere in corrispondenza dei miei capezzoli e li strinse fra le unghie per pinzarli con due morsetti punitivi tedeschi collegati da una pesante catena a maglie strette. Alla mia smorfia di dolore.. "mi fa molto piacere tu abbia sentito dolore, il dolore resta nella memoria." Per sapere dei miei capezzoli supplicanti vi invito al prossimo post

*Make lists....
-Keeping track of your goals can help you budget your time wisely. But it can also aid you in seeing what you have already accomplished. By seeing progress with your goals, you will be more motivated to continue working towards them.
-Decide what kind of "to do" list works for you. What fits your lifestyle and schedule? Monthly, weekly, daily goals, etc? You don't want to over plan and feel bad about yourself when you don't have time/energy to get around to doing things on your list. So it's important to be realistic with yourself and your expectations. I personally find monthly goals work best for me since my schedule fluctuates, but I can still stay on track with getting things done.
-Keep other lists for more detailed tasks. For instance, say you want to wash a bunch of your dolls. Write "wash dolls" on your master "to do" list. But then have a separate checklist for each doll. This way you can keep track of who has or hasn't been cleaned. I do this with projects that can't all be done in one session, and need more time/attention.
-Write down any extra stuff you manage to accomplish in your set time frame. Sometimes we don't get around to everything on our lists because we get side tracked. By writing down the other things you did, you can still feel like you were productive.
-Break your lists down into categories. This will depend on what you want to accomplish with your doll collection. For me, I break my "to do" lists into four categories: Youtube, Flickr, "Dolly Maintenance," and "Extras." This enables me to make sure I'm dividing my time evenly between social media projects and things I need to do just for my dolls. It can also be a good way to see how certain tasks overlap. For instance, when my doll displays need dusting, it might be an ample time to film a collection video of all of them while they are off their shelves. This one task can actually turn into two different ones! Everyone's categories will be different. Perhaps you need to keep track of things you are selling, things you need to buy, dolls you need to clean, etc. It's also a good way to separate out your priorities--maybe some tasks are more important than others.
-Whiteboards can be a very handy way to write down very small, insignificant tasks that don't need real estate on your master "to do" list, but still need to get done. Sometimes I realize I need to re-shoot a photograph, or that a doll just got a new piece to her outfit. I will jot these notes down on my whiteboard as a quick reminder so I can take care of the task sooner. It also can be a placeholder for where I left off with editing, replacing photos, etc.
*Set small goals...
-Far too often we are over ambitious about what we want to get done. For instance, having a huge goal like wanting to reorganize ALL your doll stuff can be overwhelming. That's why having smaller goals that build up to the bigger one are more reasonable. For instance, if you want to reorganize all your doll stuff in the long run, start with one container, one type of accessory, etc.
-As you accomplish each smaller goal, you will see the progress towards completing the larger one. If you don't set realistic steps in place, then you will be too burdened and overwhelmed to do anything. It's better to do something small than nothing at all.
-Small goals will help you feel like you've achieved something, and will motivate you to keep taking the steps to accomplish your main, larger goal.
*Make it visually appealing...
-Let's be honest, we all like to look at pretty things. When a room, work space, or "to do" list is visually appealing, we are more likely to want to spend time with it. I like to surround my space with dolls and items that make me happy. As for my "to do" lists, I like to decorate the notebook they are in. Using different colors and fonts makes me enjoy writing and using my lists more.
-Don't over complicate things though! While I enjoy having an aesthetically pleasing "to do" list, I don't want to spend a ridiculous amount of time planning things...I'd rather spend that time working towards the actual goals. If you aren't a particularly creative person, or if you are like me and would rather actually do stuff than plan it, keep it simple. Using a notebook that is already visually appealing and not over decorating is a good middle ground.
-Be practical about what you need. Not all of us require a huge, fancy agenda/planner for our "to do" lists. If you need to carry it around with you or you don't have much space, keep your lists in a small book. I personally like to use sketchbooks, because I prefer to work without lines, and they are thin, but durable. They also are all blank, giving me the ability to create whatever I need out of the pages. But if you prefer to work in a book that already has pre-planned pages, than go for it! Tailor this to your specific needs.
*Stay organized...
-Set up things in advance! Since my "to do" lists are monthly, I will designate a page in my notebook for each month, and write my main four categories down in advance. This way I don't have to spend the time doing so each month. Rather, I can simply plan my goals quickly and get on doing them! So you can pre-plan sections for your day, week, month, etc...whatever works for you.
-Keep your lists in an accessible place. Nobody wants to dig under a pile of books and debris to get a notebook out. If you have the notebook or lists somewhere you can access them quickly on a daily basis, you are more likely to use the lists. There is no point in making lists or keeping track of your achievements if you aren't utilizing them regularly. I keep mine in a little slot on my desk, right by my computer. This is where I do most of my dolly computer work, and also it is in my doll room, where I complete many of my doll related tasks.
-Set aside time for cleaning and small tasks. Usually once a week I will go in my dolly room and pick up any debris leftover from projects. Even five minutes of this a few times a week can keep clutter under control. Sometimes it is as simple as putting books back in place, moving dolls off your work surface, sweeping the floor where some hair collected when you brushed your dolls, etc. The more often you do little tasks, the less deep cleaning you will have to do. Plus you can tackle very small tasks like dressing a doll, redoing someone's hair, putting away new stuff, etc.
-A clear space equals a clear mind. Nobody feels motivated when they have to climb over piles of junk or smell something icky. Have a special space that is clean and clear of debris to work on.
-Designate spots for projects. It's easy to make your desk or the floor a place to shove all the stuff you are working on, but haven't completed. I find that having a basket for dolls that need things done, a bin for mending, and a small case for clothes/accessories that were being worn by dolls that are currently being cleaned (or who just haven't been dressed up yet) is very handy. This prevents things from getting lost. Sometimes leaving a pile of doll clothes or a broken piece of their jewelry out can result in these things going missing. Just ask my Ocean Friends Kira where her fanny pack went after I left it out on the dining room table! Having designated spots can also prevent clutter on your main workspace. Somethings take longer to get around to doing, for instance mending clothes can be time consuming. Plus you don't have to worry about moving piles of dolls off your bed if you didn't have time to put them all back on display after dusting! Having a place just for these things ensures that you know where they are at all times, but these items aren't cluttering up your work area/mind.
Chicago was the last scheduled destination for Swiss MD11 service- and was always a highlight of a spotting trip. This airframe flew the VERY last scheduled MD11 service for Swiss, which was discontinued only a couple of weeks after I took this shot on October 3, 2004.
Retirement didn't last long though, as she was converted to a freighter in mid-2005 and continues to fly for FedEx as N628FE.

The medieval City Walls a scheduled ancient monument and a Grade I Listed Building in York, North Yorkshire.
One of the great attractions that York is most recognised for are the City Walls guarding the perimeter of the once much smaller city.
It stretching 2.75 miles, including the gaps, the wall encircles an area of 263 acres. Retaining all four bar (gates) into the City the York Walls are the most complete example of Medieval walls in England.
The City Walls, not as we know them today, were first built in 71AD by the Romans, were made of wood and originally surrounded an area which was their headquarters, known as Principia and covered around 50 acres.
The Roman-built walls were buried beneath earthbanks after the Vikings had invaded and didn’t see them as up to the job of defending the City. They built over the walls to the North Est and West of the City and then extended southwards upto and on the opposite sides of the Rivers Ouse and Foss and back down to where the two rivers meet giving additional, natural protection to the City.
The only entrances to the City was via the four bars within the walls. These were manned toll gates who controlled who entered and exited York. Visitors bringing goods to the City to sell were charged a tax on their goods while the residents were charged a ‘Murage Tax’ for the upkeep of the walls and defences.
Although the walls had a long and well-lived lifespan, by the late 18th Century they were no longer used and they were falling into disrepair. A proposition was made in 1800 to demolish the walls and gates which were now believed to be hindering the development of York as a City, rather than helping it. Permission was initially granted but met with fierce competition. A preservation order was finally obtained in the mid-nineteenth century but it was too late for some parts as over 300 yards of wall, 3 posterns and 5 towers had already been demolished. Thankfully these have since been restored and maintained.
Today the walls are accessible from dawn until dusk and provide great views across the city. There are benches at several of the towers should you need a rest or just a sit down to take in the views.

Air Freight NZ is a scheduled overnight air cargo, subsidiary of freight forwarder Freightways, founded in New Zealand in July. The company operated a total of 3 Convair Turbo Props aircraft.
ZK-FTA (CV-580 c/n 168) was built as CV-340 and delivered in April 1954 to United Airlines as N73150. In March 1960 the plane was sold to Allegheny Airlines as N543Z (but later N8427H and the N5806). In 1976 the plane was leased to Evergreen International Airlines and in 1980 to Interstate Airlines that in May 1981 re-registered it as N590PL. In July 1983 the plane was acquired by Kelowna Flightcraft Air Charter as C-GKFP being operated also for Commuter Express and Air Toronto. In May 1989 the plane was sold to Air Freight NZ as ZK-FTA.

The Dearborn Street Subway was open, but ended at the Congress terminal. Looks like this is from some time between October, 1955 and October, 1957 judging from the CTA chronology.
