The old bird.

Of course it gets me a little hot under the collar. The guys have clearly done a great job getting it up and running.

As for chute canisters plopping out on deployment some research may need to be conducted as to how many occurrences there were after landaways with no engineering support that required a chute landing.

All I remember from my aircrew servicing was a fiddly little pin that had to be removed after the cap was closed and the message ‘don’t stream the chute on a landaway’ ringing in my ears. Unless flight safety dictated otherwise of course.
