Thumbs up

3 Ship military jet formation was going through the pre takeoff checks at the hold of Rwy 06 at a civilian airfield. Being a training flight this was taking a bit longer than ussual. Behind this lot was a frustated Kingair pilot not so patiently waiting his turn for departure. When this patience ran out he got on the radio and in a snotty voice transmitted "Hurry up guys, I pay for my fuel!". A quick semi-muffled response through an oxygen mask followed.... "and you pay for mine too."
