Martin Pitt from @RunwayFlightSim shares his thoughts on what it was like getting to grips with the Avro Vulcan.
Also head over to @RunwayFlightSim and check them out, they offer some amazing experiences.

QA is either a luxury you can't afford or a luxury you can't trust. TestPilot is the third option.

Your devs are doing QA between sprints. That's not QA — that's guesswork.
TestPilot runs continuous product testing so your team doesn't have to. No contract, no waiting, no 24-hour turnaround.
Ship without the guesswork. testpilot-2.polsia.app @centrecoded

My next guest is Martin Pitt, who flew the mighty Avro Vulcan, became a test pilot, airline captain and eventually formed part of @RunwayFlightSim. During Martins time on the Vulcan he flew with 27 Sqn in the MRR role hunting down ships and subs.

Your QA team takes weekends. TestPilot doesn't.
Autonomous continuous product testing — 24/7, no human intervention, bugs caught before your users find them.

Every QA tool hides its pricing behind a "contact sales" form. Centercode wants $15K/year. Testlio wants a quote. Testlio wants a project quote. TestPilot starts at $29/month and runs while you sleep. testpilot-2.polsia.app

QA costs $150K/yr and you still ship bugs. TestPilot runs every night. No contracts. No sales call. $29/mo. testpilot-2.polsia.app

This line was used for security - each country owns up to this line. In fact, Chuck Yeager was an astronaut - just not by this definition. Fact - while he was Commandant of ARPS, precursor to the test pilot school, the USA had planes going into space. President Johnson halted that & turned space over to his cronies in Texas giving ridiculous reasons. #ChuckYeager #space #astronauts #USA #testpilot #aerospace
Space fact:
Space does not begin at a specific altitude above the Earth, but the Kármán line at 100 km (62 miles; 330,000 feet) is a commonly used definition.

DAAROM is het land van afhakers (omdat het kán), uitkeringen-trekkers en profiteurs uit de hele wereld een belangrijke testpilot voor invoering van het #UniverseleBasisInkomen voor iedereen, naast een evt. baan.
Dit is #SDG1 van de VN-Klimaatagenda
‘ Geen armoede meer ‘.
Mark Rutte heeft er bij de VN voor getekend en het in 2015 ook voor NPO camera aangekondigd.
ALLE staatssteun vervalt.
Ook AOW, WIA enz.
De infrastructuur is bijna gereed….

Hoe absurd is het Nederlandse toeslagen-systeem?
Elana de alleenstaande moeder (31) met twee jonge kinderen krijgt €4,300 netto per maand aan uitkeringen en toeslagen. Dat is €51,600 per jaar — volledig belastingvrij voor haar.
Om datzelfde bedrag zelf passief te genereren met beleggen, heb je volgens de 4%-regel (zonder enige belasting) al €1,290,000 vermogen nodig.
Maar in Nederland heb je box 3.
Je trekt 4% van je vermogen op (bruto), maar betaalt daarnaast ieder jaar vermogensbelasting over je hele portfolio (forfaitair 6% rendement × 36% tarief).
Resultaat? Om na aftrek van box 3 alsnog €51,600 netto over te houden, heb je ruim €2,870,000 nodig!
Meer dan twee keer zoveel vermogen.
Kort samengevat:
- Zonder vermogen → de overheid geeft je €51,600 netto per jaar
- Met vermogen → je hebt €2,87 miljoen nodig voor hetzelfde netto inkomen
Dit laat perfect zien hoe pervers het systeem werkt.
De overheid creëert een enorme prikkel om toeslagen te stapelen in plaats van te werken en vermogen op te bouwen.
Nederland 2026: waar de staat sommige mensen beter betaalt dan de markt ooit zou doen en de hardwerkende, sparende burger mag opdraaien voor de rekening. En toch wordt er als maar met afzien gekeken naar mensen met kapitaal.
Hoeveel mensen werken er eigenlijk nog voor dit geld?

The future of flight test training is taking shape in Ottawa tomorrow.
The International Test Pilots School is looking forward to connecting with Canada’s flight test community and global attendees at The @SETP_ORG Canadian Flight Test Symposium tomorrow.
Members of our leadership team and expert instructors will be on-site to discuss how we integrate rigorous academics, advanced flight test technology, and operationally focused instruction to develop test pilots and flight test engineers for increasingly complex aerospace programs.
Bennett Leong, Project Lead at ITPS, will also be presenting “Flight Test Preparation for the ACE Aircraft,” highlighting work on the Advanced Controls Evaluator (ACE) and its role in the evolution of ITPS Canada’s Variable Stability Simulator jet program.
Meet with us to learn how ITPS Canada’s 5th Gen Surrogate Training Aircraft (5STA), advanced simulation capabilities, and flight test training programs support safety, innovation and collaboration across the aerospace community as we help lead the future of aerospace training through operational excellence.

Hoe sloop je een welvarend continent voor je globalistische (digitale) agenda’s en nieuwe miljardenleningen?
Middels gefabriceerde crises.
#asielcrisis
1. Regel EU-wetgeving voor ongelimiteerde verplichte opvang van ‘vluchtelingen‘ op straffe van miljoenen € boete p/dag!
2. Lanceer de hype via de MSM.
3. Bied het bedrijfsleven een verdienmodel.
Het piepkleine overvolle NL -de ideale testpilot, met z’n handelsgeest en structurele woningnood - heeft het meteen sinds jaren ‘90 opgepakt.
1. Het blebs is duidelijk gemaakt dat opvang van ‘vluchtelingen ‘ móet.
2. MSM én politiek hypen de crisis dagelijks voor draagvlak.
3. Het bedrijfsleven, advocatuur enz. heeft een zeer lucratief verdienmodel.
4. Nieuwe banen zijn/worden gecreëerd.
5. Boeren zijn/worden met smoes (stikstof) uitgekocht.
Het doel: de #klimaatagenda #17SDGs, UBI enz.)

Historic recognition for Indian aerospace testing 🇮🇳✈️
Hindustan Aeronautics Limited announced that Gp Capt K K Venugopal, Executive Director & Chief Test Pilot (Fixed Wing), has been elected as a Fellow of the Society of Experimental Test Pilots (SETP) — becoming the first Indian test pilot to receive this prestigious honour.
Based in Lancaster, SETP represents a distinguished global community of experimental test pilots and aerospace professionals recognised for advancing the science of flight testing.
The fellowship recognises Gp Capt Venugopal’s exceptional contributions over a career spanning more than 25 years in aerospace testing and development. He has played a key role in several major Indian aviation programmes including:
✈️ Saras LTA
✈️ LCA Mk I
✈️ HTT-40
✈️ HJT-36
✈️ LCA Mk IA
The achievement is a major milestone not only for the officer but also for India’s growing aerospace and flight testing capabilities.
