Almost right......Rocket was raising the first cold one to his lips when the first 404 went roaring past well below the level of the Ralum Club verandah...and coconut palms...and probably anyone standing under them
. Assorted drinking buddies gave him some stick and just as beer was heading mouthwards again the second roared past
Ahhh ****!!!
Next moaning in office..."Dave was that you low flying yesterday?" " Nah that was Ricky.....twice!"
Both widebody longhaul Captains now

Chuckles.
EDIT: Rod thought it as funny as everyone else. A while later a new pilot thought it would be fun to fly from Sule to Bialla at zot feet long the beach, empty, and got dobbed by some plantation owner....the only one for freaking miles
As Rod said to me, with a rye smile, after the call.."How unlucky can a young bloke be...dobbed in the very first time?"
