In April 1985, an extraordinary event took place over the Irish Sea, captured by Adrian Meredith in what would become the only photo of Concorde flying at supersonic speed. Adrian, who was flying a Royal Air Force (RAF) Tornado jet, had the opportunity to participate in a planned rendezvous with the legendary Concorde. The Tornado, a versatile and powerful combat aircraft developed and used by the RAF, was primarily designed for air defense, ground attack, and reconnaissance missions. While it could match Concorde's cruising speed, its fuel consumption rate was significantly higher, allowing it to sustain that speed only for a matter of minutes. Despite the Tornado's capabilities, capturing the iconic photograph posed a unique challenge. To maximize its speed and keep up with the Concorde, the Tornado was stripped of all non-essential equipment. The crew made every effort to maintain the pace, racing to catch up with the Concorde as it soared through the skies. However, due to the Tornado's limited endurance at high speeds, the crew had to make the difficult decision to break off the rendezvous after just four minutes. Meanwhile, the Concorde, an engineering marvel of its time, continued its journey, gracefully cruising towards its destination at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK). Despite the Tornado's formidable capabilities as a combat aircraft, it could only briefly keep pace with the Concorde's supersonic flight. The juxtaposition of these two aircraft highlights the distinct roles they played in aviation history—the Concorde as a pinnacle of supersonic passenger travel and the Tornado as a versatile military workhorse. Together, the Tornado and the Concorde symbolize the remarkable advancements in aviation technology during the late 20th century. Their fleeting rendezvous over the Irish Sea and the remarkable photograph captured during that encounter stand as a testament to the ingenuity, dedication, and pursuit of excellence that define the aviation industry.

@lynn1234572 @JoeyMannarinoUS Yes. Seattle is almost unpoliced these days; cops only show up for serious assault or murder, or overdoses (because the ambulance drivers refuse to respond without police presence).

It amuses me to ask ChatGPT about complete bollocks and it helpfully gives me answers in an authoritative tone that are completely made up. Like, I just asked it to write a Wikipedia article about the nonexistent plane "Shorts s.99". It happily did.
