Only the next Bond movie and the Wonder Woman sequel stand out and are ready to go. Theres no MCU blockbuster in the pipeline in the vein of the Avengers, and Star Wars has ditched movies for the time being to concentrate on TV content for Disney+

Just seen an interview on the BBC regarding the Italian lockdown being relaxed. They have said that some businesses like cinemas, concerts, plus possibly pubs and restaurants won't be allowed to reopen until there's a vaccine for CV19. Not saying that will happen here but surely cinema won't be back in full swing until a vaccine is available. Social distancing is here to stay until there is one.

Lots of on-demand services, not all will survive. At the moment they all have strengths and weaknesses. Disney has a strong back catalogue but little in new programming (yet). Netflix has invested lots in original content, Amazon has the bonus of its shop delivery and live sport (when it restarts of course). I can see a time when Britbox and Netflix team up. Having a britbox section within Netflix could make sense. Not sure how that would work financially though.

... here's something to watch. A visit to the RR Detby factory by aviation vlogger Sam Chui earlier this year but uploaded today.

That's what simulators are for. I'd imagine they will be busy refreshing pilots once restrictions start to ease.

It's that time of year again, the annual RMP pump and dump. After Puntland and Alaska I shall watch from the sidelines. Good luck if you invest anyway.

IAG to cut capacity by 75% in April and May.

Air France / KLM group have just announced they're cutting capacity by up to 90% for 2 months, plus grounding the entire 747 & A380 fleets. I'd imagine something similar from IAG will be announced soon.

I know BA were slowly retiring their 747s over the next few years, this could be the final nail in the coffin for the queen of the skies.

No way the UK government will consider bailing out IAG if it came down to that, not that I think it will. I doubt t the Irish or Spanish governments will consider it either to save their 'flag carriers'. Was obvious that a UK / US flight ban was not far behind the mainland Europe one, hence I opened a short on Friday afternoon. IAG share price will take a battering but it will survive, if I can make a few quid out of it so be it. Good luck whatever happens.

The trade at 16:35 today for 2.5M+ shares was a UT trade (Uncrossing Trade)

Bandy could walk into a brothel with a £50 note wrapped round is tackle and still not get a result.

Whatever the outcome of the Winx1 results and data analysis, no (if any) new drill will happen til next year due to only being allowed to drill in the winter. RMP has nothing else on the horizon.

I believe the saying is 'one for the bottom drawer' when it come to RMP.

Any 2nd drill in Alaska can only happen in the winter as per Bandy in the video below...

so I would guess nothing else happening there til end of year (if at all), obviously depending on further investigation of the data they have from Winx1.

Philippines project is a deep water drill site so going to be expensive. RMP is on its ar*e for the time being.

I said that after the Puntland debacle... yet here I am a few years later still betting on RMP. Luckily this time I took money out in the week so just lost my profit today. Whats with dog AIM shares like RMP, RRL, XEL, hows someone supposed to make a few quid for themselves.... no doubt see you all at the next RMP drill lol. Actually have the urge to buy a couple hundred quids worth tomorrow and just tuck them away and see what happens.

First post, long time lurker on the boards. Hello
