BEagle, 'twas the young and shy copilot who didn't want to wazz in the open.
Mind you, brings to mind the story - Valiant on a round the world. Arrived at prestigious US airfield. Captain (sqn ldr) briefed the crew that he would alight first and greet assembled dignatories who had gathered to greet and inspect the aircraft. The crew would then follow, lineup, and be presented.
As the story goes, the door opened and step were put in place and "with a little flash of kharki, there was Arkie" who flashed over to the port undercarriage and proceded to have an extremely long and satisfying wee to the constenation of all VIPs and the captain and the delight of the rest of the crew.
