‘Drunken easyJet passenger punches security staff’ with police arresting man and woman
Two people have been arrested after a drunken passenger on board a flight to Spain allegedly punched a security guard. According to an eyewitness’ account, a man and a woman had been waiting at Bristol Airport to get on board a 17.45 easyJet flight to Alicante when the altercation took place.

Science Museum refuses Hull’s historic plane loan request
Published 5 January 2016 Share close Share page Copy link About sharing A request to take pioneer Amy Johnson's aeroplane to her home city of Hull has been refused by the Science Museum. Ms Johnson became the first woman to fly solo from the UK to Australia when she managed the feat in 1930. Organisers of a festival to mark the 75th anniversary of her death hoped to put her Gipsy Moth on display in Hull. But the Science Museum in London turned down the proposal, explaining it would cost "several hundred thousand pounds" to move the historic aircraft. Rick Welton, director of the Amy Johnson Festival, said he was "disappointed" by the decision. "I'd like to have more detailed discussions about the loan of the aircraft," he said. "I think it needs a bit more open-mindedness from the Science Museum. "People in the city would be so excited to have the plane back - I'm … [Read more...] about Science Museum refuses Hull’s historic plane loan request

Published 1 October 2015 Share close Share page Copy link About sharing The epic solo flight made by aviator Amy Johnson from the UK to Australia is being retraced. Bi-plane pilot Tracey Curtis-Taylor is following a similar route to the aviator who became the first woman to make the journey in 1930. Ms Curtis-Taylor, 55, described the 13,000-mile flight as a "destiny which was always meant to be". She took off from Farnborough, Hampshire, in The Spirit of Artemis, shortly before 13:00 BST. The journey will see her fly across 23 countries, making 50 refuelling stops in the 73-year-old open cockpit bi-plane.
