If that were true, however bizarre it would almost certainly appear to most real aviators, it would bring about a whole new dimension for the old adage, "aviate, navigate, communicate" - "prevaricate" perhaps, or some other such word to cover those whom I believe Beagle usually refers to as "blunties".
