Cool Loose Articles

Hello everyone...

Last year I was carrying out the permit inspection on my Pitts with a mate of mine when we found to our surprise a MagLite in the leading edge! Presumably it had been lost there (no doubt during a previous inspection!). Naturally I mentioned it to my other aviating friends and they often came back with other, more bizarre lose articles - namely,

-The half pack of biscuits which had been into space 5 times in the wing of a Shuttle!

-A set of lineys' steps in a Vulcan wing!

and - a vacuum cleaner left in an Airbus fuel tank!!

I just wondered if there were any more similarly shocking tales out there?
