an unspeakable of the Oscar Wilde sort

-A passenger plane was underloaded with fuel because Canada had just converted to the metric system and everyone supposed to double check their numbers got it wrong. -When the plane ran out of fuel they were too far away to make it to an in-service airport and had to head towards the Gimli military base.  Which was shuttered. -They were coming in to fast due to a lack of flaps control and had to perform a series of slips (as shown in the video above) to slow down, basically drifting a giant passenger plane. -As they come down they realized that just because Gimli’s been decommissioned doesn’t mean it’s abandoned because a bunch of people are having drag races on the runway they’re about to need. -Despite everything they managed to land safely and no one was killed or even hurt which is why it’s one of the best air disasters to meme on.

Nice

study of a picture i couldn't find credits for

made lino prints of Abbot to match my prints of Robby! they are both hand printed from carved blocks of lino. prints available here!

Happy Lizard Fashion Day to those who celebrate.

the prints were made by etching a metal plate with acid multiple times to create the image on the plate, which is then used to make the prints. prints available here!

I love him soo much - the design is art nouveau inspired, based on the rooftop scenes, but I wanted to give it a feeling of optimism. not sure when I’ll have time for this but I’m picturing a matching print of Abbot with dusk/nighttime colours. the lino prints are available here 💛
