Barbados (i/bɑːrˈbeɪdɒs/ or /bɑːrˈbeɪdoʊs/) is a sovereign island country in the Lesser Antilles, in the Americas. It is 34 kilometres (21 mi) in length and up to 23 kilometres (14 mi) in width, covering an area of 432 square kilometres (167 sq mi). It is situated in the western area of the North Atlantic and 100 kilometres (62 mi) east of the Windward Islands and the Caribbean Sea; therein, it is about 168 kilometres (104 mi) east of the islands of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and 400 kilometres (250 mi) north-east of Trinidad and Tobago. Barbados is outside of the principal Atlantic hurricane belt. Its capital is Bridgetown.
Inhabited by Kalingo people since the 13th century, and prior to that by other Amerindians, Barbados was visited by Spanish navigators in the late 15th century and claimed for the Spanish Crown. It first appears on a Spanish map from 1511. The Portuguese visited the island in 1536, but they left it unclaimed, with their only remnants being an introduction of wild hogs for a good supply of meat whenever the island was visited. An English ship, the Olive Blossom, arrived in Barbados in 1625; its men took possession of it in the name of King James I. In 1627, the first permanent settlers arrived from England, and it became an English and later British colony.

I believe I'm close to exhausting all possibile variations of BA 777 aircraft flying to or from Barbados, so this set will probably be my last on this particular theme. When I first saw this video on the small screen of my camera I thought it had great potential, however at full size it is apparent that I lose focus at a couple of key points due mainly to imperfections on the surface of the window combined with perhaps injudicious use of the zoom function. In addition it was VERY difficult to keep the camera steady during the last portion of the video and so it is somewhat shaky. Sorry! A portion of this video is pillarboxed (saving you having to twist your neck or screen through 90 degrees!) to handle my turning the camera vertically just prior to landing - this was the only wa...
Takeoff of British Airways operated Boeing 777 aircraft from London Gatwick to Barbados. The aircraft is a 3 classs 777-236ER with Rolls Royce Trent 895 engines. Afraid I can't remember the registration - It may have been G-YMMF.
This clip presents raw footage of two BA 777 aircraft on the apron at Grantley Adams International airport in Barbados, on a typically bright and sunny afternoon. The aircraft on the left is the RR Trent 895 based 777-236ER (reg G-YMMF) that had just flown the BA2153 flight from London Gatwick. You can just glimpse the new crew on their way out to fly the aircraft on to Grenada. The aircraft on the right is the GE 90 based 777-236 (reg G-VIIA) that is in the final stages of preparation for the BA2154 flight to London Gatwick. A classic Rolls Royce vs General Electric faceoff :)
This Monarch Airways A330-200 aircraft was on an fictional route from Manchester airport, UK into Grantley Adams airport, Barbados. Evening arrival. Aircraft was FREEWARE from the fantastic model package provided from Thomas Ruth. Must have. Also includes a fully working VC. Sounds were a separate Rolls Royce FREEWARE download. Scenery was also FREEWARE.
The one and only Buisness Jet in the register of Barbados landed at Bern Airport in Switzerland. What an exotic visitor! This Gulfstream Aerospace G550 carries the registration mark 8P-MSD. The G550 is an ultra long range business jet. Distances of up to 13,000 km which means a 14 hour non-stop flight, is achievable with this aircraft. It is powered by two Rolls-Royce BR710 turbofan jet engines. Cruising speed is 0.85 Mach / 904 km/h. The impressive wingspan and the huge engines of the Gulfstream G550 always amazes me.

This video shows the takeoff of the BA2263 service from London Gatwick to Kingston Jamaica. Sadly due to lack of time I was unable to do my usual coverage of the aircraft on the stand. This flight was flown by aircraft G-YMME which is a Boeing 777-236 powered by Rolls Royce Trent 895 engines. This flight was fully loaded - not an empty seat for love or money! I was standing near the gate agent desks at the front of the packed gate area and overheard at least 6 lucky people receiving cabin upgrades. The heay loading is reflected in the engine tone during the take-off and climbout. It was really LOUD. I've flown in RR powered 777s before yet this was a first for me. This engine sound is best enjoyed through headphones. The sound was superbly captured by an external microphone attached to...
It has been a very long time since my last video. I've resumed now that BA have relaxed their rules on the use of portable electronic equipment during takeoff and landing. This video is of a recent trip to Jamaica. The flight BA2263 was flown on this occasion by aircraft G-YMMS which is a Boeing 777 powered by Rolls Royce Trent 895 engines. The journey is rather long at around 10 hours give or take depending on the prevailing winds and has an additional first officer (3 pilots) along due to the length. All footage was shot by my trusty Lumix TZ10 camera - my only complaint is that it is poor at reproducing sounds at really loud volumes such as during the take-off roll - I suspect this is software related. Next time I'll take my semi-pro camcorder along. Hope you enjoy. Hope I get a G...

Though my last video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kApJrVqhcDU has been well received to date, I was disappointed by the audio of my Panasonic Lumix TZ10 compact camera. It does a great job of recording HD video but the audio is simply not up to capturing the nuances of engine startup and the take-off roll. So on my most recent Jamaic trip I took along the heavy artillery :) - a much larger Panasonic HDC-HS300 semi pro camcorder with built-in Dolby Digital 5.1 microphone. It does a fantastic job of reproducing the audio - in particular the deep bass of the engine start. For best results I recommend you use headphones or quality speakers. This flight was flown by aircraft G-VIIP, which is a Boeing 777-236 powered by 2 x General Electric GE90-85B turbofan engines. I flew on the Rolls ...

Featuring Kevin Durant
My dreams coming true for wishing
My money coming in like they pay me that tuition
Swag what they talkin’ man, I’m the definition
And I’m in a different class like I’m sitting in detention
Sitting in the ghost, I’m riding down the interstate
Stay strapped up cuz you know these niggas finna hate
I take my place at the top of the throne
I don’t care if they really think they on
I’m from the east side as P is wise reside
Wanna see what K divide
Hold up, just let me decide
Choosing from a variety, niggas catching anxiety
23, a lot of fucking cheese, so inspiring
Sleeping and working, I’m working and thinking
I’m blowin’ on some purp when I’m drinking
I’m getting grow too
Linkin’ for certain but work for them Franklin’s
Fuck them clothes, messin’ by
Tell Derek I need a Rolls too
All blue, you know where I be at, biat
I ain’t got a record deal so I ain’t gotta relapse
I can say whatever I want. You don’t agree that?
Then you don’t gotta play mine cuz I’mma spill same mine
Cuz where I’m from niggas be drawing with no crayon
Catch you in the hood, R I P Trevon
I’m just telling you what I know, not what I’ve heard
Phillie, Phillie where them shooters comin’ off the grape vine
They wanna see us knocked up, locked up, AKON
All that Gucci–Louie talk, save that shit for Kraesha
The way I’m movin’ up you’da thought I was a mason
KD, they back on my pipe, just tell ‘em stay on
Niggas pray on for you not to stay on
I discount, double check them niggas like I’m state farm
I’m killin’ Rolls, I’m stuntin’ up in the SLS
Watch me get busy, I’m killin’ to whip my baguette
New baguettes got your ex-girl getting super wet
And I spit retarded boss so I’mma need a stupid check
Move in the other room right now, getting super wet
Chill Priv, niggas don’t know what the fuck to do with that
I’m with my Phillie niggas and we don’t feel these niggas
Even with a megaphone we still couldn’t hear these niggas
I’m with my DC niggas, we don’t fuck with scary niggas
