Liam's Buddy somehow managed to guess the tail and aircraft type from the IMPOSSIBLE image yesterday. No idea how he did it but well done!
Tune in next week for another member's only Triple-T

*** WINNER *** - Bank Holiday Tail Teaser
Congrats to Elliot βͺ@BHX-Spotter1β¬ who correctly identified this week's Tail Teaser as the Air France Hop Embraer E190.
Hard luck to everyone else - it was a toughy!
From next week, this will return to being a members-only perk but hope you enjoyed playing!
Tune in on Tuesday for our Triple-T challenge
Cheers

Good luck. You have until tomorrow at 6pm UK time to get your guesses in before we reveal the answer (and any winners)

Hello everyone!
(read all the way to the bottom if you're wondering what the image is about)
I'm back from my holidays and am rearing to go.
We're going to be live tomorrow from around 12pm for a Bank Holiday Special, so please try to join us. The link to the stream is already on the channel home page. Don't forget to like and set the notification bell for when we're live!
*** TUESDAY TAIL TEASER IS COMING BACK ***
Also, the members only Tuesday Tail Teaser is coming back! This was a "game" we ran for our channel members around a year ago.
The aim of the game is to identify the aircraft type and airliner from a snippet of a tail livery.
There are three levels: IMPOSSIBLE, HARD and EASY.
A section of an aircraft tail will be posted on Tuesday morning which will be at the IMPOSSIBLE level.
If no-one guesses correctly, the difficulty will drop to HARD and so on until either the tail is guessed or no-one has guessed correctly by 0900 on Friday (UK Time)
The "winners" will get special mention on the posts page on a Friday morning.
As a bit of fun - here is one that's open to everyone, not just channel members. So remember, we need the aircraft type and airline.
This is the IMPOSSIBLE level.
Leave your answers in the comment section below ππ»
Good Luck!

Hi guys - we will be out for our usual Wednesday evening slot which means we'll try to bring you some average eclipse footage amongst all the plens and usual fun.
Other streamers will also be out but we didn't want to miss out on this fantastic opportunity to get some unique footage.
Hope to see you there, from around 6pm UK
Cheers

Sorry guys but tonight's stream is cancelled. I have been dealing with an issue at work since 0600 this morning and it's unlikely I'll get away in time.
I do hate doing this but it is the nature of my job. I'm especially gutted about missing the 777
We will be out tomorrow afternoon from around 3pm.
Thanks for your understanding.

Just want to say a massive thanks to everyone who joined in over the weekend. Saturday was so much funβ¦
You know we like to do things a bit differently and I think this weekend was the best one yet π€£ we must be the first streamers to do a Conga and Mexican Wave on Southside π
Thanks to Simon Lowe and Blue Sky for lending us their slots π«Άπ»
See you later in the week - Iβm knackered now. Two back-to-back streams was hard work.
Cheers!
John, VT and the gang πβοΈ
