I read that and my first thought was, "I hope whoever that was reads pprune and had a camera handy!"

"I never thought I'd be part of a pig rodeo," said pilot Neil Parkinson.

Watch out for the sequal to the 'Babe' movie. Son of Babe staring Neil Parkinson....... Filmed on location in sunny Warwickshire. Extras need not apply as Joe Public will be there in sufficient numbers

They've even been given a new crew vehicle:
