Evri’s attempt at delivery. Of course, nothing arrived and security cameras show no attempt at a delivery. Our community regularly experience lost, stolen and disputed deliveries. This company should be closed down for mass fraud. They once sent identical pics of an alleged delivery to us all.

How to turn a helicopter into a jet plane. Bell (part of Textron) has wind-tunnel tested this concept, which after a vertical takeoff folds its rotors to reduce the drag that would otherwise restrict high-speed forward flight. Complicated and a bit like the Osprey, which I remember seeing launched.

Caught this flying off Durdle Dour in Dorset, UK, last week. It looks like a Sea King, except I believe they had all retired from service. Some kind of ghostly aberration?

Evri sent the same picture of this alleged delivery to me and two of my neighbours, who also never got their parcel. We kicked up a fuss and, magically, our parcels turned up two days later!

For short trips you can expect to fly electric. Two-seater electric planes are already a good prospect for flying schools. This 30-seater opens up serious commercial prospects.

This looks good. Not sure how it would go down on Fistral Beach though. lind.surf

Jaguar’s new branding. With no new products on sale and a plan to move upmarket with EVs to rival the likes of Bentley and Aston Martin, this is their future. If they have one.

Civilian use of supersonic air travel is back. But not for high-speed executive jets, I hope. www.dawnaerospace.com/latest-news/...

Old friends. Sadly Felix the cat is no more and Lyra misses her fluffy friend, even though she would get a bob on the nose if misbehaving.
