Tell me!
Ages ago I heard a tale of an exercise mass Vulcan launch at Waddo where the Stn Cdr needed to re-call the launch. The lead pilot fearing the Stn Cdr was making the call under duress insisted he appeared in person on the tarmac. He then decided that the Stn Cdr may still have a bomb attached to his person and insisted the Stn Cdr stripped to his underpants. The net result was a really pi$$ed off CO standing in front of a line of Vulcans making a shut-down signal in his undies.
Urban mythe? Does anyone know?
