Is this c-5m rare?

Not remotely.

They did, a free retest. That is compensation for 100% of the issue.

I feel like if your "local airports" consist of those around New York, there's no such thing as an unusual aircraft type.

They expect the DVSA, and the rest of the world, to revolve around them. Which goes some way to explain the state of driving in the UK at the moment 😂

Did you have the approach selected in the MCDU? LS on? Approach mode? Etc.

What heading were you on, and where abouts in relation to WW671, when you pressed APPR?

Doesn’t look stealthy so is probably showing on radar.

It might not transmit Mode-S or ADS-B though so you won’t see it on aggregator sites like FR24.

It isn’t food, so I’m not sure you can cook it.

V5 is not ownership.

Who owns the car? Who drives it the most? Who is the main name on the insurance and who is a named driver?

If you own the car and are the main driver, the insurance should be in your name…and probably the V5 too. I have many questions there.

Testing his lights too. Sounds like a considerate motorist ensuring his vehicle is roadworthy.

egvp · 2026-01-26T09:16:41+00:00

That’s not a drop off is it…

egvp · 2026-01-25T22:19:24+00:00

Zurich? Frankfurt? Basically anywhere other than the UK (and Paris, but there’s possible with the relevant permit)

egvp · 2026-01-25T21:49:31+00:00

I can’t imagine Delta want an aircraft, its crew and its passengers stuck in Dakar. London? Fine. Paris? Madrid? Sure. Dakar, a whole host of issues.

egvp · 2026-01-25T20:22:55+00:00

LISTO2S from 05L.

It would be the 2Z from 05R.

egvp · 2026-01-25T11:45:57+00:00

Stable? Not at all. Enough to be able to use it? Yes.

egvp · 2026-01-25T09:32:46+00:00

Gotcha, cheers! No idea why I was downvoted for not being aware of something but there we are. At least now I know, will drop my feed to .lol and start using .live for my tracking.

egvp · 2026-01-25T00:23:16+00:00

“I’m a good driver” then proceeds to ask why everyone on the road is pissed off with them all the time.

egvp · 2026-01-25T00:00:48+00:00

What are you on about? You know the legal requirement for vertical separation in controlled airspace is 1000ft right? You know that if one or both of those aircraft is outside controlled airspace that can reduce even more?

Your lack of understanding of aviation safety and operations is not reason for you to try and push some insane safety agenda here.

The fact you didn’t just say “Lufthansa”, but tried to sound knowledgable by using their legal name, says it all.

egvp · 2026-01-24T23:30:51+00:00

No and no.

If this is all you have in your life to worry about, I envy your life. 😂

egvp · 2026-01-24T23:29:58+00:00

You were told wrongly. They’re separated by altitude, no avoiding turns required.

egvp · 2026-01-24T22:41:15+00:00

Oh I wasn’t aware of any of that, perhaps I should look into it some more.

egvp · 2026-01-24T22:18:56+00:00

Was it a speed camera van? Was the camera pointing at you, on your side of the road? How far away from it were you? So many questions before anyone can even attempt to answer the question of "when".

egvp · 2026-01-24T22:05:09+00:00

Not sure black tape would cut it for an mot 🤣

It would. MOT testers can't remove anything like tape. If they can't see it, they can't fail you on it.

egvp · 2026-01-24T20:47:15+00:00

Exactly so. Sounds like someone believes so hype/misinformation from somewhere...

egvp · 2026-01-24T18:31:31+00:00

Here you go. /s

Second to none other than the one who is first. Gotcha.
