Re: The Eagle Has Landed!
One thing I learned from the radio news about this flight - the load was only 40tons of PPE whilst the BA plane was due to bring back 2x that. Why, oh why didn't the "Government" ask the RAF to send TWO transport aircraft if they knew one wouldn't be enough?22-04-2020, 08:46 PM

I see theres a report in the gaurdian today about several tons of
PPE stuck in a custom built warehouse near liverpool that cant be
accessed because of a court case between the warehouse
company and the building owner?
The PPE is apparently owned by the NHS??
Donkeyman! 👎👎👎

Re: The Eagle Has Landed!
I saw a report of a guy on the news who owns a manufacturing company and had bought up tons of the material needed to make gowns. However, he hadn't had a contract to make the gowns. So he is taking the supply of a scarce resource off the global market and then could hold the government to ransom if they don't use his company? That's just how it came across because he had not yet had any orders. So did he have a contract ? Not sure. But to my suspicious mind, there are some dubious motives and behaviours coming across in some of the news stories.22-04-2020, 10:59 PM
