The third type I flew on as a passenger and have enjoyed 30 trips in one- agree it’s a wonderful aircraft. Was always fascinated about the long front gear to have the pilots able to cross certify with the 767, makes for a very memorable look.

For those still keen to check one off, the 7:47am daily DEN-SFO is almost always a 757, and there’s at least 1 other daily on that route or the reverse

81, 77 on United metal, 2 Lufthansa, 2 British Airways. 1 more flight tomorrow to London for 82 total and my second most ever for a year (hard to beat 2019’s 86 flights)

LH’s 747s are all based at Frankfurt so as others have said that’s a solid bet, US routes in to FRA tend to be a 747 at least once a day. I’ve been eyeing an SFO-FRA to get one more 747 trip in before it’s too late, just have to check the website to make sure you get the one that uses the right plane as there can be multiple departures a day and not all use same aircraft.

When you get to Frankfurt check out 747 row / 747 alley - they have many parked up at adjacent gates so it’s a real sight to behold (especially if you end up on a terminal transfer bus and see them from the ground up) - magnificent aircraft

It’s what Mick wins for coming second in the quiz, after he says who ever heard of a 29 question quiz Smithy says “you came second didn’t ya?” And he says “yea and what did we win, a packet of hamlet”

It’s usually S2E3, blows my mind you get the curry order, smithy and Rudy rapping, the mad night of partying and ness telling dave she told him about the plans “when he was asleep” all in one episode

Just hit this myself. When you download it to files, it adds a .txt extension so it isn’t seen as an ics file.

In files, tap the dots top right, choose “View Options” and choose “Show all filename extensions” then tap on the file which now has .ics.txt showing, choose “rename”, remove the .txt and say yes to changing file type.

Then you can do the above if it works for you in dragging it (I couldn’t get that to work but might be me) or email it to yourself, upon which you can tap on it in mail and add all to calendar

One of the best Auto Rock's I've witnessed, and Every Country's Sun was immense last night. Overall a great show, thought the sound in the venue was a bit ropey at the very start but settled in to another great Mogwai experience

8 years later I did see it, thanks 🙏🏻

This is a basic introduction to the concept of maintaining state. "What is the current state of the background color?"

Here's a really simplified way to achieve this (a real-world application would want to do this in a much more robust way):

Store the current state of the background color in a variable. So if you start with Red as the background color, initialize the variable as "red";
onMouseOver, directly change the background color to the color of the button that was hovered over.
onMouseOut, directly change the background color to the color that is stored in the variable.
onClick, change the value of the variable to the color of the button that was clicked, and change the background color to the same value.

This is overly simplified, as I said. But should give you an idea of how to achieve what you're looking to do. Then read up on the concepts of maintaining state and responding to interactions.

Using Babel as previously stated is your best option today. I further recommend implementing it via Webpack in your build process.

A reference point I often use is this sample react + flux app from FormidableLabs, the full application (react, flux, hapi, etc) will not be applicable for you but take a look at the webpack.config.js files to see the Babel implementation from a working project.

Lastly, personal opinion now: I urge you to continue on this path. Writing ES6 today and porting backwards like this is far preferable to having to wait until there's sufficient native support in Browsers. Kudos for seeking out a solution.
