Why you may ask? Becuase I'm a mad aviation fan and really love planes, especially the 747!

Where did you get that?


I worked for a company that owned BAe-146s, and our building had a guy that overhauled the engines, he was going to give me some fan blades the next time an engine came in after a bird strike, but we all got made redundant and it never happened.
