Returning to the Gutersloh stories from S&S I have two more about said controller.
1. Tornado suffers birdstrike on landing.
Pilot "I think I suffered a birdstrike. Did you see where it hit?"
Controller "Just below the beak but I think its alright."
2. Very sharp station commander at morning brief.
"Mr A*******, the met man gave a moderate birdstrike risk up to 1700 ft. Why are you giving a risk to only 1500ft?"
"Ah Sir, our birds fly on QFE!"
