Europe is writing its biggest defence cheques since the Cold War: €800bn, 5% of GDP and conscription returning. The threat from Russia is real, Usa is destrying NATO from within. So Europe must indeed take defense in its own hands. 1/2

It's no secret we're fans of AirCorps in beautiful Bemidji, Minnesota. If you're in the vicinity and slogging away on some mind-numbing software job, here's an alternative with the potential to get you 'up and close and personal' with something much more aligned with your interests. | 🛩️ ⚔️ 🧰 🥇

Two men, same job, same age, same company (Amazon). One earns more... and is more likely to die young. He's the American. A rich American and a poor German now have roughly the same odds of reaching 75. So tell me again which continent is "in decline." open.substack.com/pub/shehuand...

Do any of the scientists on here know if there is evidence of greater illness/death rates amount airport workers?

Nancy Jane Miller Livingston Stratford, US aviator. Pilot in the civilian Air Transport Auxiliary in UK during #WWII. Later a pioneering helicopter pilot in Alaska. b. #OTD 12 Jun 1919, it is her 107th birthday today. She is the last surviving Attagirl #ATA pilot. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nancy_S...

So many past lessons not being learnt

In the UK hospitals don’t have 24/7 on-site helipads, so the helicopters often have to land elsewhere and transfer patients by road.I just signed this petition to ensure air ambulances can land right at the hospital 24/7. Please sign too: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...

Nearly the longest day and there's lots of chattering in the hedges and fields #birds #countryside

Remember yesterday’s post? Here is the actual timelapse of that spectacular southern aurora, sparked by a recent solar event. Captured by NASA astronaut Jess Meir aboard the International Space Station #NASA #ISS

A completely new perspective on a familiar story...

@philm1.bsky.social just sent me this bit of madness.. but excellent madness youtu.be/2x75Gxd5IDE #music #comedy

Can’t believe how UK media has failed to call out Pete Hegseth who used the D-Day commemoration to trot out a racist ideology the Nazis would have applauded. It takes an American historian Heather Cox Richardson to tell it like it is

This doesn't seem to be getting much coverage, but it should.. the first trans Atlantic hydrogen ballon crossing, it looks as if they landed in Luxembourg early this morning atlantic-explorer.com/Diary-2026 #ballooning #aviation @blueskiesaviation.bsky.social @julietbravofoxmedia.com

A new thing learned today, I didn't know about this ships

55 hours with all that noise and vibration whilst flying and navigating, impressive.

I just got sent this video.. some interesting training and safety points youtube.com/shorts/BYMum... @aerossurance.bsky.social @yyzbound.bsky.social @chasingray.bsky.social #flightsafety

One for the aerodynamicists ( and a great photo )

If you are flying in Europe this NOTAM service from the developers at Easyvfr is worth a look notambriefing.com #aviation #flying #pilot

Back in 2024, Biden generated headlines when he mixed up Egypt and Mexico in public remarks. Trump, in his Cabinet meeting, just referred to Iran as Venezuela.

I got lucky with a phone photo last night! #photography #lightning @metoffice.gov.uk @alexdeakin.bsky.social

It would be nice if this came and cooled the air! @metoffice.gov.uk

I am having a clear out and found this.. when ETOPS first started we had to manually plot ETPs etc @yyzbound.bsky.social #avgeek

For those that havent seen this, its a v scary accident, @aerossurance.bsky.social @avbrief.bsky.social avbrief.com/video-plane-...

The WACO UPF 7 is off annual inspection so a flight to check all is OK #avgeek #biplane #vintageaviation

Trump is purging uncooperative Republicans from the congressional ranks, but he may have created a YOLO/DGAF caucus in the Senate for the rest of the year. Ousted Senator Bill Cassidy's vote to advance a war powers resolution on Iran highlights the risk for the president. www.bbc.com/news/article...

British Forces being impressive, quite a technical jump! www.instagram.com/reel/DYNIS_q...

Any big a/c drivers this is a good reminder to understand your emergency equipment #flightsafety
