Well, as you’ve mentioned it, ditto!

Whilst not exactly relevant to the book, I was on a staff visit to Binbrook in the 80s when they lost one of their Lightnings. FlyPro cancelled, and all and sundey repaired to the Bar to drink his farewell. Proceedings were well under way by the time I’d finished my task. Unless my memory has fogged, one of his flying boots (presumably from a spare pair in his locker) was nailed to the Bar ceiling to join others sadly displayed there.
