    Video of flights over 24 hour period

    Another interesting thing I noted on the vid is that US East coast evenings the bulk of cross Atlantic traffic looks to be US to Europe. In the mornings, the traffic looks to be mainly Europe to US. And it seems to totally die off around midday. Jenifur Charne

    Best Airline for Frequent Travel in Australia (split thread)

    Thanks for that info, harvyk. :) From what is posted here on the forum and my sole experience of flying QF, I did not realise that QF had narrow body aircraft without clear demarkation of the fare classes. Which type of points are you referring to. Frequent flyer points or SCs? Edit: reply...

    Best Airline for Frequent Travel in Australia (split thread)

    How absolutely effortlessly easy it is to selectively misquote information. You claim you are searching for the cheapest fares, without actually saying what fare classes you are using for each flight, so an apples to apples comparison can be made based on the fare classes. The correct fare...

    New website name feedback

    *nods* 256Mb is viable for sneakernet transfer of most documents and a few images. But for running a complete mobile applications suite, such as PortableApps which runs directly from and on the USB thumb drive, 2Gb is really the minimum. No need for a PDA? Do you stil use a Filofax? :shock...

    Election 2010 August 21

    Yes indeed Hvr. Though at least one of the results I'd have liked to see has failed to come to pass. Wayne Swan got returned.:( Jenifur Charne

    That too close to call result, ontop of a hung parliament would indeed be an exceedingly messy scenario. Jenifur Charne

    Election 2010 August 21

    I honestly do not know what the Electoral Act says regarding the possibility of a standing PM loosing their seat The question is definitely not a noobish one. It was actually mentioned by commentators regarding John Howard at the last election regarding the possibility that he might not...

    Election 2010 August 21

    What would prove to be a pleasurable result to see, irrespective of which party wins tonight, would be for Abbott; Julia; Conroy; Swann; Garrett; Feilding and Barnaby Joyce to all loose in their respective electorates. Jenifur Charne

    AFF Gathering #4, Brisbane, October 22-24, 2010

    If you don't have a large amount of luggage, bus route 300 has its first stop in Kingsford Smith Drive within easy walking distance of the Breakfast Creek Hotel. In the city, you'd catch it from in front of Ted's Camera House, 150 Adelaide Street. From the Hilton, exiting onto Elizabeth Street...

    V8 Hotel

    That's exactly why I did like it, because it was so lacking the theming of the other rooms shown in the gallery. Jenifur Charne

    V8 Hotel

    I dislike that room, since they did not use the correct model of Volkswagen Type 1 for the room. In the first Disney film, Herbie was an American market 1963 model, and the one used in the hotel looks to be a late 1970s model. Of the rooms shown in the photos, my favourite would have to be...

    Pimped-out Planes

    Nok Air | Pimped-out planes | News.com.au Shame they didn't get a pic of the aircraft from the same airline, which another user here on AFF uses as their avatar, that has pink as its main body colour. The subdued humour of that Kulula flying 101 paintjob works more effectively than any of...

    Re: The TSA has branched out from confiscating water and toothpaste to making sure yo Considering the widening of the remit for the activities of the TSA, their actions as described in this article makes for a very good reason to never visit or transit through LOTFAP or its airspace...

    AFF iTunes Playlist

    Sunday in how many months time to get the list compiled and posted, Cheesy? Also I have another song for addition to the list, as it mentions air travel, though the song itself is not about air travel: Skyhooks - Women In Uniform lyrics from the first half of the second verse: Flying to...

    Yesteryear Aviation

    Before worrying about what the baggage allowance is, it would be a higher import to be looking at where to acquire some proper 1960s luggage and also reading materials for such a flight. At least the latter category is one I would not need to worry over much about for such a flight, as among my...

    Lufthansa FA does not throw punches - she throws...

    I'd love to hear more stories of relatively safe, ad hoc fun, on flights. Reading the comments about the video, it seems that Lufthansa management are pleased with the video of the ad hoc fun on board and with the particular FA in the video. However, there are no links to media from Lufthansa...

    A challange for non OSX computer literate types...

    The HP All-In-One 200-5020a might be a viable solution. Off hand, the only downside I can see to the specs of it as sold at Officeworks and ****Smith is the supplied ammount of RAM, a measly 2Gb for running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit, when 4Gb is the ammount that is really needed. Of those 2...
