Everyone loves a 'cutaway' drawing and this one is quite special...albeit in French! 🇫🇷

You were watching PawPatrol on YouTube after curfew were you not?

What the fuck are we doing

Mercedes-Benz G4 W31 - 1938/39

Our own police are against us as they restrain 5 year old white boy and pepper spray his father.

世界に1機しか現存しないオリジナルFW-190A-5 - BMW - 801。フォッケウルフが飛ぶよ😳所有者故ポール・アレン氏（米国）のおかげだね。

Politicians have ignored the electorate's wishes regarding immigration, and have done so for decades at this point. People think it started with Blair in '97 but look at what happened to Enoch Powell to understand just how long the political class have ignored us.

At least 11 Focke Wolf FW 190s exist in museums worldwide. Four of these are Fw 190 Ds, and all are in the United States, including one at the U.S. Air Force museum at Wright-Patterson AFB, OH., and one here at NASM. The Focke-Wulf D, nicknamed “Dora.” It has a long nose due to its inline engine. This aircraft is extremely rare. To my knowledge, I am not aware of any that are still flying. The Focke-Wulf Fw 190 D-13/R11 “Yellow 10” (Serial Number 836017) has had a rather remarkable history: it is now the only authentic surviving Fw 190 D-13 in the world. Its post-war history Delivered to the Luftwaffe in March 1945. Assigned to the commander of JG 26, Major Franz Götz. Captured by the Allies at the end of the war and transferred to the United States for evaluation under the number FE-118. Later donated to the Georgia Institute of Technology, where it ended up being stored and then neglected for several years. Purchased in 1972 by collector Doug Champlin, who sent it to Germany for a major restoration carried out with the help of Art Williams’ team and even the Fw 190’s designer, Kurt Tank. Subsequent restorations After its return to the United States: Displayed at the Champlin Fighter Museum (Arizona), which has since closed; completely rebuilt in the early 2000s by Gosshawk Aviation; subsequently displayed at the Museum of Flight; finally transferred to Paul Allen’s collection, now known as the Flying Heritage & Combat Armor Museum in Everett (Washington State). Where is it today? The aircraft is still housed in Everett, near Seattle, at the Flying Heritage & Combat Armor Museum. It has long been maintained in near-flight condition, but due to its extreme rarity, it is generally not flown. Why is it so important? The D-13 was a very rare variant of the Jumo 213-powered “Dora.” Few were built, and 836017 is the only known complete survivor. For aviation historians, it is one of the most valuable German World War II aircraft still in existence. Interesting fact: the famous yellow “10” painted on the fuselage was Franz Götz’s lucky number, which explains the aircraft’s distinctive livery. 🎬Jerry Crandall Studios

A sincere thank you to all of today's followers, old and new, 'likes,' contributors and readers.

Egerton Park in Bexhill on Sea, in 1966. When these beautiful parks were all over the land, well maintained by local councils and respected by law-abiding and civilised people. And when a civilised race is replaced by less civilised people, that's when the problems begin.

This is possibly the worst crime in modern history. Two men "adopted" a baby. "A post mortem examination identified more than 30 external bruises, as well as internal bruising to his mouth and throat, internal bruising to his anus, bowel and bladder, lacerations to his anorectum, and a perforated bowel." "One medical expert gave evidence that a bruise on the baby’s bottom appeared to be a human bite mark." Think what this poor baby went through. The men who did this should be put to death. Men should not be able to buy babies. I know that this will cause some anguish to good men who have good intentions, but it's necessary to prevent this happening. This cannot happen again.

The new AI model from Mistral is absolutely fantastic

One more reason the Victor is the coolest of the bunch. I mean, look at it! Its a bloody spaceship.

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Not sure @PeterMcCormack 's followers would agree. Maybe do what I did and report for impersonating.

A fantastic view of a Ukrainian Flanker lugging a pair of US-supplied JDAM-ERs. What makes this combo wild is that legacy Soviet avionics on the Ukrainian Su-27 can’t natively talk with NATO smart weapons! Ukrainian engineers bypassed this technical barrier by using specialized pylons that allow the crew to program target coordinates into JDAMs on the ground or via a tablet inside the cockpit. This is the ultimate fusion of Cold War heavy metal and 21st-century digital improvisation.

The truth is we yearn for the world when food was worse but everything else was better. Sure - now it would be an artisinal sourdough roll, caramelised onions and melted cheese.. but we'd consume while reading about the latest migrant beheading and how we owe our culture to immigrants.
