Trash the Donkeys????
Hello,
about one month ago we were flying back from Africa, when the ATC asked a BA 744 about his speed.
"M.87"
A bit surprised ATC wanted to confirm, then BA said, "yes, we are trashing (crashing?) the Donkeys today".
Obviously, according to the discussion that followed, nobody (on freq, BA was the only one whith english as mother tongue) had never heard that before.
I understood the meaning, but could you give me more informations about that?
many tks.
