  1. I was living with my parents at the time. I was studying for my ATPL (Airline Transport Pilot Licence) exams. I was actually studying Flight Performance and Planning and had the tv on in the background. I remember the volume changing and a News Flash started broadcasting what was going on. I remember feeling rather numb watching this and realised that mine, and most other peoples lifes would never quite be the same again.

  3. Get in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  4. GTFIT. 3 Points. Clean sheat. 2 Saints' records broken.
  5. Early reports say it's Red 4. If true, that pilot went to Southampton Uni. Hope all is ok and pilot and anyone on the ground are safe.
  6. I'm back to being a pending member?
  7. I thought vertical stripes makes anyone look slimmer? ;-)
  8. I'm still showing as pending. I keep ringing the front door bell.....
  9. I think my team is the strongest. I know I will be holding all the other teams up on my shoulders through the season!

    We asked a steward on Saturday and he told us it was Worthingtons with our label on it.

    It's Worthingtons, re-branded.
  12. West Ham, away, 0-6 win to us. Hat-tricks from Owen and Tevez ;-)
  13. England Wales Scotland Ireland NI Switzerland France Spain Portugal Italy Denmark Sweden Latvia Poland Luxembourg Germany Libya Mexico USA Cyprus Greece Morroco Tunisia Hungary Russia And a few more I can't remember.
  14. It shouldn't cause as much disruption as the one last year. The particles in this one are much larger (on a scientific level) so shouldn't be able to travel as far.
  15. I'm off to Poznan tomorrow. I'll tell them what we think of their celebrations!
  16. Or a spotter!
  17. Heard a rumour from a friend, not sure of his source, that we have signed Alan Smith from Newcastle.
  18. Was born in Chester but moved to Southampton when very young. Glad to see a young Saint proud to wear his colours on cobbles!
  19. I don't think this was a case of flying on rudder and elevator only. There are stills of this incident that show deflection of the ailerons quite clearly. My guess would be one of two things. First thoughts were a malfunctioning Yaw Damper or a flight control feedback gyroscope that was misinterpreting input from the control column as effects of the slip stream on the controls. After looking at more stills of this incident, it looks as though the flaps were not moved from their original take-off position, slats were not deployed and at times, other controls being in the wrong configuration, making me think the most likely cause is a failure in the hydraulic system on the aircraft. It had been in storage for ten years though, so anything is a possibility. A lot of systems can't be tested properly until in the air so a ground logic (squat) switch or a myriad of systems that take information from this could be at fault. A great display of airman-ship from the crew.
  20. Well deserved and fair play to Brighton. Congratulations are in order. Just hope we will be playing them next year.
  21. Ciggie time for me too....
  22. She could independently tickle both balls at the same time.
  23. I was in a hotel on Saturday when Kettering Town turned up to have some food and a break from their journey before going to the stadium. Shows what my company think of me!
