Hmm, if they'd just decanted the fuel into bottles and quaffed that, it would probably taste better than Cypriot brandy. Alternatively put the Keo stuff in the tanks and you'd probably have the first supersonic Javelin.

Remember the first bunch of Harriers to visit Cyprus. One diverted into a French base on the way home with aileron restrictions. Cause was a few cartons of, by then, mangled and bent ciggies.
