The C929 is China's first shot at a widebody passenger jet. I fully expect Mactep or Richard_A to tell us what it's like when it enters service. Although that may be some ways off yet.

I’ll keep that in mind.

While stopped for a water break while riding my bicycle around the airport yesterday, a BA 380 flew right overhead, coming in for a landing.

The Porsche 930 is a turbocharged version of the 911.

Dialling 932 will get you either SE Texas or Barcelona, depending on the international code.
Very Porschey.

935:
Is there any 900 number that isn't a Porsche?
A San Francisco area code.
A road that will take you away from Montrose, don't contemplate the alternative.

Not too many 900 numbers without their Porsche. The 936 was a race car.

Speaking of sweet rides, if you really want, you can take the Berlin S-Bahn out east to Strausberg, there board the mobus (Märkisch-Oderland-Bus) line 936 and visit Neuhardenberg, where you can reside in an old Prussian Country nobility Palace (kind of like a Prussian Downton Abbey) turned into an upmarket hotel - the Federal Cabinet uses this place for closed-off meetings when things are getting serious. You will pass through a dreamy landscape close to where one of the last big meat-grinder battles of WWII took place, the Battle of the Seelow Heights, a last-ditch effort to stop the Red Army from entering Berlin. You won't meet many other tourists.

937A.D. The year at least one of donald trump's ancestors did something stupid.

Of course, that can probably be said of pretty much any year.

938 AD - Cell Cuilinn was plundered by Amlaíb grandson of Ímar—something unheard of from ancient times. Donnchad grandson of Mael Sechnaill, king of Temair, and Muirchertach son of Niall, king of Ailech, led an army to besiege the foreigners of Áth Cliath, and they ravaged from Áth Cliath to Áth Truisten.

A 939 runs, in part, from Cock Bridge to Tomintoul and is regularly closed by snow.
