In the cold light of day, Clarkson's challenge to The Stig in the bar the night before seemed rather unlikely to succeed.

The Block 4 Mirage was somewhat lacking from the original version...

The effect of the new 'hot aircraft wash' showed there were still some problems to be overcome!!

Hey, d1ckhead. Fit a bell to your control column, you could give someone a heart attack sneaking up on them like that.

[attenborough] Whilst the differences in the species' can be evidenced by their relative size, the urge to mate can often be found in the most unlikely of places. Here, we can clearly see that the Mirage is completely aroused by the smaller twin... [/attenborough]

ahaha...Pretty good replies!
Time to call for a winner before it slide down the second page of this forum.

Again, Buster Hyman with:

Now I know where you picked up your PPrune 'nom de plume'

All ex aequo for a second place.
cattletruck:
"Outa my way! The tower said you're just a mirage! Now you gonna tell me you have a phantom clearance?"
ACW599:
In the cold light of day, Clarkson's challenge to The Stig in the bar the night before seemed rather unlikely to succeed.
Siggie:
Budget constraints badly affected the Greek Mirage Variant.

The others could fit a third place with no problem.

Over to you Buster, free for the first to post if no answer by May 1th at 0001Z (one minute into the day)
