Sir, sir, we've lost all airspeed indications!

Don't worry son, you just stay under the hood and if you can tell me why, you've passed the trip.

Her assessor had been in a good mood when he'd said to Melanie, "Okay, let's pop out to the aircraft and you can show me what you've got!" He was in an even better mood twenty minutes later.

Seen here in a still from their latest "spec"tacular advertising campaign


"Although almost all of Melanies' clothes had been ripped off by the savage airflow, a Specsavers spokesperson was delighted to report that her contact lenses had stayed in place, as promised."

Once again, and he was going to be put on jankers this time for sure, Pilot Cadet Wayne Kerr had failed the rudiments of flight by failing to notice the red "remove before flight" flag somehow thinking it was just the "wrong week" again.


I will most certainly get my coat

Pilot to engineer: 'Hey, we have some rather nice looking WRAF's now, don't we?'

Engineer to pilot: 'Nah mate, thats just the boss's au pair, she seems to think cleaning his nose is part of her job description. You should see what she gets upto in the damned exhaust, makes me go all sweaty just looking at her'

Slowly, Plt Off Prune realised that this hadn’t been used as a fisheries patrol aircraft in the past.
