My favourite PICUS moment: landed offshore and I land a bit off centre, so the Co gives me banter about the landing. “well there goes your PICUS for this flight” says I. “no, no, no” he says, “I’m taking the p*ss out of your landing, therefore acting
exactly like a Captain”. Fair point, he had me on that one!
