  1. Because the chances are the build quality would be the same as piloted ones.
  2. Imagine the door coming off an SST at hypersonic speeds.
  3. I did think of calling the thread "Another passenger jet in the Hudson!" but thought that may be in poor taste.
  4. Might have been sanding with sand blasters. Who knows - as a static display the paintwork's not going to be going anywhere at mach 2.
  5. Must have been a sight for New Yorkers. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/14/concorde-completes-final-journey-along-hudson-river-in-new-york
  6. Looks like their starting bid for everything is $1000, including the "baggage trailer with accessories" which has bugger-all use for anything else.
  7. As a nature reserve, the best you can hope for is to find a tight seal.
  8. Is Bronnie Bishop still around? Maybe she ordered it to get to the bingo.
  9. Looks like it's a nature reserve. So the quarantine stations will be 2x 3m tinnies powered by Evinrude 3.5hp motors, parked either end. (Example on 1 end crudely drawn in).
  10. Just joking Nev. Of course we couldn't go it alone. We could become New Zealand's westernmost island though.
  11. Big enough to place passport control, when we secede...
  12. If they put a jet engine in it and called it a Vampire, it would have worked a lot better...
  13. Well there you go - I never knew we had a land border!
  14. What's the first B stand for? (No, not Boeing, the other BJ)
  15. Looks like it's only about 40km from the Vic coast. Not much on the island, but looks reasonably flat in parts. They did well getting it down safely then continuing.
