On FlightBlogger, Stephen Trimble had the intriguing news "somewhere deep inside Boeing, a team of engineers is even now continuing to fiddle with the last decade's most high-profile conceptual aerospace flop", as a patent application posted online reveals "a new and improved Sonic Cruiser".
Pratt & Whitney's media day gave Trimble an excuse to update the Movie Monday series with a BBC documentary on Rolls-Royce. After all, the engine makers' joint venture means their futures "are tied closely together", reckons Trimble. Either way, the film enthralled him with its "revealing look inside the typically buttoned-up" British company.
And the Image of the Day blog carried a US Marine Corps shot of Boeing CH-46E Sea Knights on an exercise in the Philippines (above) - "like something straight out of Apocalypse Now", reckoned Dominic Perry.
