... and of course it's not the job of ATC to police EU livestock movement licences or cross-border subsidy-smuggling ...

Heard of plenty of old cows flying in aeroplanes as passengers but never sheep. :O

Let's hope the brake were working on the Cherokee, or they'd have to have called for the baarrier.

Did you pass them the QNH? - the woolly one would have wanted to know the baarometric pressure.

There used to be a story about an Aussie sheep farmer who'd had a good year (it's a very old joke). He ordered a new Rolls Royce but asked for the optional glass screen between the back seat & the driver.

The salesman commented that Aussies are generally less snobbish than the Poms and are usually willing to share the same air as their chauffeur.

To which farmer replied "You ever driven down a road with a sheep licking the back of your neck?":):)

Now where's the list of Cherokee options?

I hope the press don't get hold of this, what with their bleating and LAMBasting.
I think if I was the controller I might have gone mutton at that point.
OK, I'll PAG my bags now, I don't want to Gambol with my posting rights.

The flying sheep was already well known & made popular by Charles Dickens.

His famous reference to Christmas, "Bah! Humbug!", declaring Christmas to be a fraud, is in his 'A Christmas Carol'.
