Hungarian-born American Ehrich Weiss, better known as escapologist Harry Houdini ✨ completed the first extended circling flight in a Voisin biplane at Diggers Rest, Victoria on March 18th of 1910.

Houdini had purchased the Voisin Biplane for $25,000 Francs from Sanchez Bess and Eduardo Bello and hired a full-time mechanic, Antonio Brassac. The Voisin was equipped with a standard 60 hp engine and was transported and stored in a make-shift hangar on private land adjoining Plumpton Dam.

This flight was recognized by the Aerial League of Australia as the first official flight in Australia 🙌

Houdini was an aviation enthusiast and had followed the early testing of Orville and Wilbur Wright’s successful Wright Flyer flight at Kill Devil Hills near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina on December 17, 1903 ✈️😱🌤️

Ever wondered why airplane food can sometimes taste a bit meh?  🤔
When an airplane is flying at a high altitude, the air becomes very dry, and the air pressure drops. That combo messes with your sense of smell, playing tricks on your taste buds! That's why the flavors might seem different.

Also, pilots and copilots follow a smart strategy 👨‍✈️ They generally eat completely separate meals that are prepared differently. Why? Although there is no official rule, this is to avoid the risk of food poisoning or other sicknesses that may affect their ability to fly the plane properly.

Which leads to a classic airplane food dilemma: portion sizes! Smaller portions are often served because pressure falls while flying, and gas starts to expand... As a result, you may feel pressure in your stomach or digestive system 💨

Lastly, ever wondered what happens to those unserved meals? 🍽️
If a meal isn't served, many airlines and jet charter providers partner up with local charities to make sure the food reaches those who could use a good meal 💙🌎

With a range of 7,500 nautical miles and a maximum speed of 541 mph, it's no surprise the Gulfstream G650ER was the aircraft of choice of Kim Kardashian, Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk to purchase as their private jet 💨

There are over 41,700 airports around the world, counting more than 14,000 only in the USA✈️⚡ where Teterboro Airport holds the record as the busiest US airport for private jets in 2022.

France is one of the countries with the most small airports, with more than 400 airports and aerodromes, allowing private jet travellers to get as close as possible to their final destination. They take pride in Paris Le Bourget being one of the most important ones in Europe ⏱️⚡

But it is important to be aware that not all smaller airports are able to accommodate all private jets. There are many selective criteria to help you choose the right airport for your trip ⛈️✈️

So, technically all airports are capable of accommodating private jets, but their use depends on flying permits, operating schedules and many other variables including weather conditions, to be sorted out when planning your flight.

Ever wondered why airplane windows have round edges? ✈️
Back in the mid-20th century, planes took off to new heights, literally! They started flying higher up to save 💰 on fuel. How? Well, higher altitudes mean less drag, and less drag means less fuel burned.

Engineers changed their designs, giving the planes a cylindrical shape to handle increased pressure, and pressurized the cabin so passengers could breathe 🌬️

Now, here's the juicy part: In the 50s, three planes crashed because engineers missed a detail: the square windows!
The corners caused chaos. The pressure difference outside and inside makes the cabin expand up a bit, making the square borders of the windows crack under the pressure 😱

Engineers realized that oval windows spread the pressure evenly around the edges, preventing cracks and crashes. Smart move, right? So next time you're peeping out of that round window, remember, it's not just for the view, it's keeping you safe in the sky! 🙌✈️🌤️

Hidden among the Himalayan Mountains in Bhutan, you will find Paro Airport 🏔

Paro Airport regularly appears on lists of the most dangerous and challenging airports to land at. The number of pilots qualified to land there is in the single digits - only eight pilots worldwide are certified! 😮

Unsurprisingly, few can manoeuver a jet safely to the tarmac of the 6,500 feet runway nestled between 18,000 feet mountain peaks. Before the landing is visible, pilots manually approach through a winding valley, watching out for electrical poles and house roofs.

And even if you are one of the minority capable, you can only land during daylight with good visibility and weather.

Would you enjoy the flight into Paro? ✈️
