Join me for a 120 knot flight to Sunderland, England. Sunderland became a sister city of Washington DC in 2006. The choice of Sunderland as a sister city for DC was very unusual, because all its other sister cities (now 17 of them) are national capitals. Why then did Washington DC see fit to twin with the humble city of Sunderland? Answers during the flight itself please, not below!
