Speaking of which, one BA Concorde made a visit in the mid or late '90s to Katunayake. That was the only time it came to Sri Lanka sadly.

Yep i heard it came here once, i found out yesterday it used fly to New York from London in less than half time it takes now :o

Yes indeed. so far there's no replacement or any revise version for that design failure isn't it?

They stopped it after it crashed when taking off(it wasn't its fault) and i dont think it meets presents emission standards

In all fairness to PL, I would like to admit that I too have violated traffic laws time to time especially in Colombo, as it has become an utter mess driving during peak hours in these god forsaken ci

What if they don't believe in the triple gem? would it still bless them or would they die from an allergy? Do you even know what the triple gem signifies? Also what is a triple jem?

Charith H Jayasinghe,

There are many things you can watch on the web. Like all telephone conversations of GSM.

Overseas Police fire rescue operations conversations.

Sylvi Wijesinghe.

What is that?

You should realize that things like Sylvi says this should be taken with a bowlful of salt and not taken too seriously.

I don't know about its emission standards machan, but I've heard the failure was that its engines are situated behind rear landing gears which has led or possibility of lead to engine blown ups after rubber / metal particles break off from the tires / runaway hits on engine.

Wikipedia says " According to the official investigation conducted by the Bureau d'Enquêtes et d'Analyses pour la Sécurité de l'Aviation Civile (BEA), the crash was caused by a metallic strip that fell from aContinental Airlines DC-10 that had taken off minutes earlier."

That, machan is a violation of other peoples privacy, and clinically demonstrated voyeurism!!

Komposiripala,

PS

There is a member who wants to have an unwanted exchange of posts towards me. I will ignore him even my first post to this thread the joint moderator posted without knowing the facts of the thread correct meaning what. I am not a fool to answer any more posts because I think MY explanation post was correct.

You thought wrong. As usual. Your explanations are as stupid as the rest of your posts, so give it a rest.

you were also planing a trip in Australia some time back I remember. What happened to that?

For starters bike rental was crazy (more than AUD100 a day); Then I learnt that the insurance was going to be a killer. Then the offer on the cheap (flight) ticket I was eyeing ran out; and then some safety flags were raised by a number of friends on and off the forum; so it just didn't fall into place. At least I learnt something from all the research.

I found the the perfect road trip quite boring in fact; too unrealistic, and in a way a bit mundane.

exactly, it was no where near my expectation! i enjoyed that Africa episode far more than this
