One Billion. :)

Not sure if that is $ or £.

Is that an American billion or a British billion?  ???

As to the currency, well it won't make much difference before long....  :-\   ::)
Us and UK billions are the same

Us as in the 'Royal We'?   ;D

You are of course correct that an American billion is the same as a British billion, but it wasn't always the case.

A British billion was a million million and an American billion was a thousand million. Britain started using the American version in the 1970's I believe.  ???

I'm far too young to remember this of course. :)
I thought it was still a million million here. :-[ Obviously didn't get the memo.  :D

Sorry to hear that all your billions aren't worth as much as you thought Ron.  :( 
                                                               ;D
Will be phoning my accountant first thing tomorrow.  ;D

Fella that bought it (from Scotland) said he wasn't going to use it, just take it 3 miles for it's MOT every year, but sit around with his mates admiring it :-\t...... rather strange, but there you go....
YG03FNV. Looked a good solid example - not my favourite colour, but that's subjective I suppose...

What's the Autodoc-available equivalent of the VX/GM "grey goo" I commonly see referred to? Specifically I'm after some for resealing a V6 breather box. Or is it the case that grey goo is grey goo is grey goo, and so long as it's grey it doesn't really matter about the label?  :y


For example, would this match ? - [size=78%]https://m.autodoc.co.uk/elring/15483203[/size]


An actual Vauxhall dealership (or halfway decent motor factors) would be an hour's round trip at least these days, whereas I'm in no rush and can just add a tube of something to my order and wait a few days.


Cheers, Stu

Can't recall if they are a 1.2W or 2W capes type.  Reuse old bulb holder.
2.4w for the bigger ones iirc ;)

No.3 would be the engine on the starboard wing. They are counted from port to starboard.

I think the cowling of the departed no.1 engine ended up the other side of the runway so quite possible it killed no.3.

However, one of the videos shows no. 2 at the back spitting out sparks just after rotation. It quite possibly ingested fire from the burning port wing at that point.

Bet they’re going to need a bit of time to re edit  that then or else it could potentially cost them another billion👨🏿‍💻

Sorry - that first sentence should have been....

"#3 is the tail engine? Anything departing #1 with enough energy to penetrate the fuselage is going to miss the tail engine."

Point is, I can't find any instances of an engine on one wing causing damage to an engine on t'other wing. Yes there have been instances (on both B-707's and B-747's) where one engine has failed and knocked the other one on the same wing off, but never on the opposite wing.

Seems like a sensible move.
