EASA advises carriers to switch off recirculation fans
Europe’s safety regulator is advising commercial aircraft operators to adopt new procedures to switch off air-conditioning system recirculation fans regularly, as part of measures to limit the risk of coronavirus contagion.
Supplementary procedures to turn off the fans periodically would “accelerate cabin air exchange”, says the European Union Aviation Safety Agency.
Its advisory is part of a series of operational recommendations to operators of passenger and cargo aircraft in response to the coronavirus outbreak.
Carriers should provide a sufficient supply of surgical-standard face-masks for the intended operation, and these should be worn at all times by crew members having direct contact with passengers or non-crew individuals – and be replaced every 4h.

Flight Centre starts pitch for $500m rescue
Flight Centre Travel Group is attempting to secure support for a $500 million equity raising, which would likely take place at a huge discount to its last traded price.

First of all: I am posting this photo only because nobody has been harmed! Mikael Carlson flew a great demonstration at Airpower 19 with his replica of the Tummelisa from the 20ies despite adverse weather conditions.

The pilot remained unhurt! Considerable material damage was caused to the plane.

The aircraft that shaped private jet travel
Business jets have created a world of opportunity for businesses and high wealth individuals around the world, allowing them the ability to fly themselves or send predominant staff to places that commercial flights can’t reach. They allowed these executives to attend imperative meetings and be home for dinner. The social status of owners increased as well, showcasing to others that they were long on financial resources and short on time.
The following are four aircraft that changed the world in regards to time efficiency, business productivity, and social status. What is most interesting is that all four originated from military contracts with the intent of being quicker and more efficient than predecessors.

NSFW A pervert’s guide to the 10 best-looking British aircraft
In 2020 we chose the 10 best looking aeroplanes from Britain. In 2020 we handed over list to the most misanthropic man to be type-qualified on the Twin Otter, Geoff G. Visser. Here in startling mordancy, is his assessment of our choices.
The following views may be considered offensive and should not be read by children or Air Chief Marshals. All complaints should be addressed to Mr Visser directly, and not this site.
Over to Mr Visser:
“Among all the high-altitude hypoxic autoerotic asphyxiation slash-fiction scribbled by those chosen few, not many words stick out as sharply as those written by the late John Gillespie Magee Jr, the writer of the poem High Flight. It should come as no surprise that the delirious ecstasy of early flight was sexualised by the horny young men and ...
