I have never been there. My mother's older sisters were born in Luxembourg before WWII. The family was in the USA and headed back home when the Nazis overran Luxembourg. My mother was born in the USA. They did not return to Luxembourg until after the war. By then they had established a home here and only went back to visit relatives.

As for his 2 aero-planes: I was told his friends destroyed them out of fear of the Nazis. Someday I will visit a museum that houses one of these Mignet-designed aircraft. Then I can see for real what I have only seen in old family photos. I sure I will be brought to tears as I was when I visited the Smithsonian and stood at arms length next to the Wright Flyer.

It is now less than 24 hours until the landing of the Eagle.

Cheers

Precisely.
Back in the early '90s when the Soviet Union was falling apart I read in a Soviet/American news paper where a businessman from Canada bought a MIG for less than the price of a new luxury car today and used it to fly to Texas 3 times a week. Now that's cool.

Well, at first Base Camp here on Earth was informed that the asteroid Adonis had a new satellite when we heard yelling "Stop!"

When we rewound the video recording we saw your young astronaut with a rope in his hand rescuing your captain during the space walk:

We've seen the photo of your captain's rescue in this message that came from your space rocket and wondered what was going on, so now the pieces of the puzzle fall into place.
We were able to reconstruct the situation by drawing a picture in black and white:

I can understand that he had enough of it afterwards for a little while and wanted to take off his space shoes in a hurry:

But what was worse, after that, I couldn't believe my eyes:

He should stop drinking and pay all the attention you need to land the LM!
Listen to what's he saying there:
"W-h-whisky, stop f-f-fooling about! Get b-b-back in my glass this m-m-minute!"
This is horrible!
I can see before my eyes what will happen next when he drinks too much:

And the language, the language that he uses when drinking :


So, where is he now? One of the cameras on board is showing him frolicking with the housepet:


Luckily you were able to put back his helmet on:


So everything is in order now, I understand, and your dedicated crew is ready to land on the moon in a few hours, according to schedule planned at 20:17 UTC today.

NixChix,

Si j'avais l'occasion de piloter un avion comme ça, vous n'auriez pas le temps de vous rendre compte, que je serais déjà en train de discuter avec le mécanicien pour faire la Check-List. Un mono-moteur avec ce qu'on appelle, une 'aile parasol', c'est ce qu'il y a de plus facile à piloter.

Tu me fais rêver ...
----------
If I had the opportunity to fly a plane like that, you would not have time to realize, that I would already be talking with the mechanic to make the checklist. A single-engine with what is called a 'parasol wing' is the easiest thing to fly.

You make me dream ...




little mermaid,

Ne te fais pas de soucis. L'avion bleu et blanc, c'est pour me rappeler mes cours de pilotage. C'est sur un pareil que j'ai appris, sauf que c'était sur la version 30 ans avant. Et vous ça vous apprend un peu ce que c'est d'être en vol, que c'est quand même quelque chose de particulier, et on ne passe pas du 'plancher des vaches' à la Lune, comme ça.
---------
Do not worry. The blue and white plane is to remind me of my flying lessons. It's about the same thing I learned, except that it was on the version 30 years before. And you learn a bit about being in flight, it's still something special, and you do not go from the 'cows floor' to the moon like that.



acpartsman,

On se fait un défi imaginaire ? Tu nous trouves un F-16 Falcon, pendant que je cherche un Rafale. Version B les deux, que ça soit biplace, et on se fait rêver ? (Il y a plus de chance que je sache les piloter, que de monter dedans, c'est dire si on n'y est pas ! )
----------
We have an imaginary challenge? You find us an F-16 Falcon, while I'm looking for a Rafale. Version B both, whether it's two-seater, and we're dreaming? (There is more chance that I know how to drive them, than to climb in it, to say if one is not there!)



adriverhoef,

Déjà là haut ? Nan parce que j'étais en train de plancher sur les plans de vols, et la météo est pas très bonne ...
En vrai, tu as super bien réagit à cette simulation ! Maintenant je suis sûr, que si j'ai un problème, quelqu'un d'autre sera là.
----------
Already up there? Nan because I was tinking on the flight plans, and the weather is not very good ...
In truth, you responded very well to this simulation! Now I'm sure, if I have a problem, someone else will be there.




Il nous reste un dernier entraînement pour demain, pour faire les entraînements à gravité zéro. Il faut que je vois avec mon ami Buck Danny, pour nous prêter un Hercules C-130 prévu pour. Ensuite, on devrait être prêt pour le 26 ...
---------
We have one more training for tomorrow, to practice zero gravity training. I have to see with my friend Buck Danny, to lend us a Hercules C-130 scheduled for. Then we should be ready for the 26th ...

aaaahhhHH!
Let's do it again
