1/x OK, A little thread about wind force on ships. Can the bow thruster hold this ship against the wind, or does she need tugs? Some ships are like a big wall (cruise ships, container ships PCTC). Here is the rule-of-thumb arithmetic behind that call. #shiphandling

Lining up a couple interviews to go with my footage of flying on Doc last month. In the meantime, here is the view from the tail gunner's spot on a B-29. It is not a bad view at all. #avgeek #aviation

US President Donald Trump announced an agreement with Russian President Vladimir Putin on October 9 to waive sanctions on Russian diesel to increase diesel supply to the United States’ and global markets – a decision which will fund Russia’s war effort and protract Russia’s war in Ukraine.

It's not easy to find video footage of the Dewoitine D.520 fighter from WWII, but here's one. It shows the II/18 ‘Saintonge’ bombing group, formed in November 1944 under the name ‘Doret’. Its mission was to help crush pockets of Nazi resistance in the Atlantic.
