Flew jump on a Lufthansa 707 out of MRU back in the late 70s (Ms RM2 was a sandwich mechanic at the time and we'd just spent a week's layover with an ex FW190 pilot as captain. 7 kills.). "Let's do some sightseeing" he says and proceeds to do a low level circuit of the island, also with commentary for the pax. Calls me back into the cockpit somewhere between Dar es Salaam and Khartoum and says "Some of the buggers believe this ****e", goes on the PA , says that we're approaching the equator and they might feel a slight bump as we cross it.
Then he pulls the speed brake to squeals of delight from the cheap seats. I kid you not...
