Travel › Re: WWII Plane Recovered From Black Sea After Crashing 77 Years Ago(Pics) by Explorers(op): 6:42pm On Sep 26, 2020

The plane was discovered by amateur scuba diver Alexey Kazarinov in 2017 at a depth of six metres below the water surface and 800 meters from the coastline.

He told authorities the approximate coordinates of the accidental find but they could not locate the crash site for almost a year.

An official study of the fighter was eventually carried out in 2019 by an expedition of the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation to search for sunken objects relating to the Great Patriotic War and retrieval of the plane began earlier this month.

Travel › WWII Plane Recovered From Black Sea After Crashing 77 Years Ago(Pics) by Explorers(op): 6:41pm On Sep 26, 2020

The remains of a Second World War-era Bell P-39 Airacobra fighter aircraft have been pulled from the Black Sea.

The plane was hauled from the water in the Kalamita Bay, near the village of Novofyodorovka, Crimea, as part of a joint expedition of the Russian Geographical Society and the Russian Defence Ministry.

The aircraft had entered service with the Black Sea Fleet in 1943 but was forced to make a water landing just one year later due to a technical malfunction during a training flight.

yeah I believe you made a lot of sense mate, I have only visited Kigali though I was only judging based on what I saw there, I haven’t been privileged to visit other parts of that nation but that Kigali is okay, it’s peaceful, streets are clean and all

Just like when you visit our country for the first time, lands in Abuja and drive straight to lodge somewhere around Maitama.

You will think all is well until you drive Sapele - Warri or Akure - Ado Ekiti.

We know Luxembourg is small country but one of the richest, safest, countries to live in the world. Good standard of living.

Part of the cost will be covered by eliminating the tax break for commuters which will also encourage people to shift away from the use of private cars in Luxembourg.

*. Luxembourg is the first country ever to make all trains, trams, and buses completely free.

*. The country’s government introduced it as an attempt to reduce congestion from car traffic and pollution.

François Bausch, the minister of mobility and public works, is convinced that “The range, punctuality and quality of the services on offer are crucial to motivating people to change their habits and switch from private cars to public transport.”

The journey wasn’t easy. The pair was frequently battered by storms and was also pummeled by a typhoon.

At one instance, they lost all contact with the world when their satellite phone broke down.

“When we finally called home again, I kept asking about my father…...they didn’t tell us anything so as not to lower our morale, but just before we arrived in Martinique, I found out he had died,” said Marco.

On May 4th, 1999, the young men sailed away from the Canary islands to reach the other side of the Atlantic ocean.

They used a wrecked Volkswagen Passat and a Ford Taunus filled with buoyant polyurethane to complete the trip.

“The driver and passenger compartment was arranged as a shelter. On top of the car, we had a rubber boat with a hole in the middle that allowed us to climb in and out of the car”, Marco told the National American Journal Enquirer.

However, Marco’s two brothers couldn’t complete the trip and had to go home due to severe seasickness.

But this didn’t discourage the two friends who remained sure they would be able to sail across the ocean.

When it comes to traveling, the majority of people choose a comfortable type of transportation such as planes, buses, and cars.

However, there are those who choose to experiment and take on more adventurous types of traveling, for instance, sailing on the sea with a car.

Marco Amoretti and his friend Marcolino De Candia became the first-ever people who crossed the Atlantic ocean with the help of a floating car.

Apparently, it was Marco’s father, Giorgio, who came up with such an insane idea.

A year prior to being diagnosed with terminal cancer, Giorgio devised a “sea-auto” and had a dream of crossing the ocean with it.

However, he was too sick to complete the trip, so his three sons and Marcolino set out to make his dream a reality.

my uncle went to the uk in 1987. His wife joined him in 1999 after he divorced his arrangee wife. He came home every 3 years and hit the jackpot 3 times. Today all the kids are doing well abroad. He is enjoying his retirement there too. Money is very important in this life. No point staying in 9ja suffering with ur wife. She may still cheat on you.

The bolded, i owe you one bottle of Ogidiga bro.

A man living with his family in Nigeria, struggling to feed them, struggling to pay kids school fees and house rent.

Better opportunity will now show for me to move first to a very nice/beautiful country in Europe or Canada with a good paying job.

Also with a chance of bringing them into the country in maybe 2-3years later, i will now turn down the opportunity because men will be squeezing my wife or something.

Is her choice o, my kids future is more important than any other thing.

I don't blame men travelling to other countries for better opportunities, as long as they have it in plan to bring them over asap.

I can only blame men that are still not ready to bring their family over despite having everything and the chance to.

Health › Re: Vietnam Police Seized 324,000 Used, Repackaged Condoms(Pics) by Explorers(op): 3:31pm On Sep 24, 2020

The operation was being run from a warehouse in the province of Binh Duong in the south of Vietnam.

Police raided the warehouse on Saturday and seized the used condoms.

Pham Thi Thanh Ngoc, 33, the owner of the warehouse, was arrested and claimed she had been receiving the supply of used condoms once a month from unknown persons.

Paid workers were tasked with washing, cleaning the condoms, sorting before reshaping them with wooden dildos and packing them.

Local reports said they were being supplied to hotels and market stalls.

It is not known how many condoms had already been sold but the load found by police weighed 360kg

The condoms were confiscated as evidence but will be disposed of immediately because they are considered dangerous medical waste.

* The condoms were seized by police from a warehouse in Binh Duong, Vietnam.

* The owner, Pham Thi Thanh Ngoc, allegedly cleaned them before reselling them.

* She washed and dried them before reshaping them with a Love Machine, reports say.

Police in Vietnam have seized 324,000 used condoms which were being recycled to be sold again.

Paid workers were tasked with cleaning the rubber contraceptives before reshaping them with wooden dildos.

The condoms were then repackaged before being resold to the public and thousands had already been sent out to the unsuspecting public.

You are right. Those days, bombers have a hole on the floor of the carrier were they can escape from the impending crash, while their counterparts, the jet fighters will have to manually open their canopy to leave the aircraft.

You can only leave the cockpit of a stable plane to jump out, not a spinning or burning plane.

The modern fighter jets have something beside the pilot seats, they pull it during emergency and it lauches the pilot together with the seat.

In the air, pilot detach from seat and open parachute.
