The Queen of the Skies has some very big shoes to fill
These pilots have answered a question people have been asking for years about flight simulators and Boeing aircraft. When we get on a plane, we’d like to assume pilots know what they’re doing. And we take that for granted because we assume flight simulators are 100 percent identical to the real thing. That’s not the […]
This watch is magnificent
There’s a passenger flight in the UK that barely lasts a minute. By the time you’ve clicked your seatbelt into place, the plane is already lining up to land. It runs every day and plays a real role in island life. And it’s officially the shortest scheduled flight in the world. DISCOVER SBX CARS – The […]
Imagine growing up aboard a $200 million yacht
After 33 years in the cockpit of an Airbus A380, retiring pilot Christian Pokorski was given a guard of honor before performing a breathtaking maneuver with passengers onboard. Having enjoyed a career escorting hundreds of thousands of passengers out of Germany and around the globe, this pilot wanted to go out in style. But, how […]

Landing a plane isn’t exactly an easy feat at the best of times – let alone during gale-force winds. But, thanks to a technique known as ‘crabbing’, this pilot […]
There’s a massive gap between what they thought would happen during the restoration and what actually happened
A pilot just did the unthinkable by flipping a BO-105 helicopter upside down. He did so as part of a jaw-dropping stunt with a skydiver. The stunt, as you might have guessed, was courtesy of Red Bull. But this trick might just be one of the craziest that the brand has pulled off yet. DISCOVER […]
Some thirty years after purchasing this plot of land, Connecticut man Dr Daniel Kenigsberg returned to his territory only to find a $1.5m property erected on it, opening a legal battle as big as the property itself. Having grown up in his family’s property in Fairfield, Dr Kenisberg bought the adjacent land to his home […]
It’s strange, but a palace with wings ended up unwanted
NASA and Boeing really did put half a plane into a wind tunnel. Not because the other half fell off but because they only needed one wing to answer a big question. Future airplanes need to burn less fuel, and one of the best ways to do that is by changing the wings. The catch? […]
Many international airports are actually pretty stylish
As it turns out, you can’t simply tow a cargo plane down the highway
