  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

ahhhh, nothing beats standing in the sun...

pretty neat watching the firefighters taking the live wires off of the plane,,, then propping the wing up,,, then removing the pilot (not terribly hurt),,, all the while surpressing flames from three both sides.... took them about an hour... well done!! me? i kept the general public at bay....




the wires you see are from the trolley... it'll be down for quite a while...
