Mid 60s at an airshow somewhere in Germany and a Mk2 Shack from BK is sitting proudly on static display. Delegated to answer questions from the public are two of the sqns finest, one siggy and a GC snco. All went well for a while but soon all the silly questions posed by Joe Public became too much and something had to snap, conversation between a middle aged German civilian and H, the rad fitt went something like this:

m.a.g "Vot aeroplane is zis, I do not recognise it"?
H (leading m.a.g gently by the hand into the bomb bay) "Try lying down and looking up, it may be more familiar from that angle".

A change of "enquiry answering operatives" took place shortly thereafter.s37
