Wow, don't need radar for that one, lol 🤣🤣. Seriously, I wonder if they pay exhaust taxes at airports willing to accept these old Ruskies ??

[@philroocroft7800]

And they want to increase freight operations at night! Think BHX needs a clean air zone… should be charged to go into / over Bham City Centre or London!!
