On hearing of the sudden increase in the number of Gay(i ?) pilots enlisting, Captain Blackadder was heard to comment:


"Just leaves more rampant totty for us real men, eh? "



.........And if any prospective aircrew are reading this. I believe the other relevant Blackadder quote is - " it's called wit "

It soon became apparent that the "dream secondment" promised by Innsworth to the three engineers had but one tiny flaw in the posters thinking.....notably that it was in support of the fledgling Royal Lesbos Air Force

or

The engineers quickly realised that, with the new mission manning requirements, the terms periodic, scheduled and unscheduled servicing would be taking on an a whole new meaning.........

Sorry team, another poor picture, just bumping it up with one from me:

Early RN disappointment was short-lived as the trials team explore the wonderful potential for alfresco cockers Ps afforded by the innovative twin-deck flat-top procurred in lieu of the axed Carriers.

The unfortunate choice of name for Lt Carstairs flying machine soon became evident when he paid a port visit to the town of the same name - and discovered to his everlasting cost that the legendry generosity of the local fishermens' wives knew no bounds.......

Then the pilot knew what the manual meant when it said "Caution should be used when adding extra flaps due to the increase in drag"

Well team, it's time to put this one out of its misery, the lines are now closed; a gallant effort by all. The runner up is Focks 2 with:

Mashed off their t*ts, Amy Winehouse's sisters are caught by the paparazzi floating down a flooded Camden High Street.
but this weeks winner is Lurking123 with:

WAAFs model the 2009 RAF Catalogue swimwear collection whilst Biggles casually plays with himself.

"Thank you General. I'll start this evening's entertainment with the politicians' favourite, a little number by Gloria Gaynor released thirty years ago. It goes like this:

First I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
without you by my side
But I spent so many nights
thinking how you did me wrong
I grew strong
I learned how to carry on.....
.....

now I'm saving all my loving
for someone who's loving me"

Here in glorious Technicolor

No point in shooting him. He uses look-alikes, same as Saddam did.

The PM decides that it's easier to tell fibs about when the troops are coming home if he doesn't actually look them in the eyes.

"And now, the end is near,
And so I face the final curtain...
.."

Full lyrics courtesy of Mr F Sinatra:

And now, the end is near,
And so I face the final curtain.
My friends, I'll say it clear;
I'll state my case of which I'm certain.

I've lived a life that's full -
I've travelled each and every highway.
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Regrets? I've had a few,
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each charted course -
Each careful step along the byway,
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew,
When I bit off more than I could chew,

But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way.

I've loved, I've laughed and cried,
I've had my fill - my share of losing.
But now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that,
And may I say, not in a shy way -
Oh no. Oh no, not me.
I did it my way.

For what is a man? What has he got?
If not himself - Then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way.

Yes, it was my way.
