And we also have the bloody US navy and (US) Israeli missiles to contend with.

Let me tidy that up a bit for you 
Thanks @ChrisMann dont know why if didn’t work 
All I did was strip out the tracking gibberish from the end of the URL - maybe the forum doesn’t handle that stuff.
Eek, I’d be a bit nervous too! I must ask mum what she’s flying on. I think I’d feel safer going the long way round, via the US, at the moment!
Might be a 787 too 
I just need to make sure my daughter will make a fortune suing Qantas and Boeing if we go down 
Every cloud,

I think the old saying was that any landing you walked away from was a good one

Maybe pack a roll of gaffer tape in your hand luggage - you could either stick the plane or yourself back together
Just checked and was very surprised to see it’s allowed in cabin baggage - why might one need gaffer tape in the cabin for a legit purpose?
I once inadvertently brought on board in my cabin baggage a Swann Morton surgical scalpel with a box of 100 blades (artists use them for lots of things). Felt very guilty when I realised.
I’d be handy to muffle the screams.
Well, I survived the two Boeing 737 Max 8 flights. I noticed that the plane had three angle of attack sensors at the front. It was having just two before that caused the two crashes because the software couldn’t decide which was faulty if one gave false readings. Now it’s presumably best of three.
