The point always came during major AD exercises when a shack or a nimrod would be cast as a defecting Bear loaded with instant sunshine. The team hovered to see where I decided to send it and the reasoning for the choice (remote from AD airfields, cities blah blah.. just in case it crashed or dropped a weapon).

I always chose Leeds/Bradford. When asked why I responded that, if the worse came to the worst, it would at least cause millions of pounds worth of improvements.....
