Johnson controls,

funny company, everywhere i,ve come accros them, i never hear good press!! not surprising if thats what you got up to..

you have never heard good press about johnsons or nissan?

johnsons seam to be a massive global company, from what i gatherd but they bought out "ikeda hoover" which made the nissan seats, ikeda hoover was a jap company, and TBH from what i was told, they did not change much in sunderlands site operations.

cant vouch for the rest of the company, but the sunderland site is pretty decent IMO

I can see my girlfriends Ex-boyfriends car parked on my drive !

Now, if these images are 4 years old plus then thats not a problem, as it was his house.

If they are less than 4 years old..........

The shanty town is aerial photo not satellite photo hence the greater clarity.

Yes some of the more clearer pics are aerial, I can remember a plane circling my house over a few days the local landlord/counciler said the were taking pics for maps. This was about 4 years ago.

One on the left is a Lightning, one on the right is a Hawker Hunter.

Can't wait until MS Flight Sim has that kind of detail.
