Slight thread drift but that reminds me of a story of a foriegn stude who landed his JP at Dishforth but then pulled the wheels up. Once it had stopped (on the runway) he calmly got out, to see people running towards the wreck. Thinking he was about to undergo some close quarter interview techniques he legged it the other way, straight across the A1 without being hit and was halfway to Ripon before some racing snake eventually caught the terrified bloke.
